Answer:

a. 50 units

Explanation:

The Crossover Analysis is totally inevitable when we need to identify the point whether we can switch one product to another that do have similarity in benefit, while they have different variable and fixed costs.

Then we should find the point for Crossover Units. Crossover Unit=(Fixed Cost 1 –Fixed Cost 2)/(Variable Cost 2-Variable Cost 2)

We have:

Process A with Fixed Cost=1000 and Variable Cost=5 for unit

Process B with Fixed Cost=500 and Variable Cost=15 for unit

Crossover point of unit=(Fixed Cost 1 –Fixed Cost 2)/(Variable Cost 2-Variable Cost 2)= (1000-500)/(15-5)=50 units.

This means that at 50 units, the total cost of each of the two projects is equal.  If you expect to sell more than 50 units then Project A would be the best choice.  If you expect to sell less than 50 units then Project B would be the best choice.

PRODUCT MIX DECISION, SINGLE CONSTRAINT
Helga [31]

Answer:

1.. Unit produce 20,000 ​deluxe units per year

Units sold $33.33

Total contribution margin $500,000

2. Basic 50,000 units

Standard 2,000 units

Deluxe 12,000 units

$470,000

Explanation:

1. Calculation to determine How many of each type of unit should be produced and sold to maximize the company's contribution margin? What is the total contribution margin for your selection?

BASIC STANDARD DELUXE

Price $9 $30 $35

Less Variable cost 6 20 10

=Contribution margin (A) 3 10 25

Machine hours (B) 0.1 0.5 0.75

Contribution margin per

machine hours (A/B) $30 $20 $33.33

Unit produce=(15,000/0.75)

Unit produce=20,000 deluxe units per year.

In order to maximize the company's contribution margin the company should sell deluxe unit with contribution margin of the amount of $ 33.33 per machine hour

Total contribution margin= 20,000 units,*$25

Total contribution margin= $500,000.

Therefore The amount of unit that should be produced is 20,000 units and $33.33 will be sold to maximize the company's contribution margin while the the total contribution margin for your selection is $500,000

2. Calculation to determine product mix would you recommend, and what would be the total contribution margin

The product mix to recommend will be:

Basic 50,000 units

Standard 2,000 units

Deluxe 12,000 units

Calculation to determine Total contribution margin

Total contribution margin= ($3 × 50,000) + ($25 × 12,000) + ($10 × 2,000)

Total contribution margin=$150,000+$300,000+$20,000

Total contribution margin = $470,000

Therefore Total contribution margin is$470,000

If a good is inferior, then an increase in income will result in a(n) a. increase in the demand for the good. b. decrease in the
Paul [167]

Answer:

b. decrease in the demand for the good. 

Explanation:

An inferior good is a good whose demand falls when income increases and rises when income decreases.

A decrease in demand would lead to a leftward shift of the demand curve.

Inferior goods contrasts to a normal good. A normal good is a good whose demand increases when income rises and falls when income reduces.

Only a change in the price of a good leads to movement along the demand curve for that good.

kakasveta [241]

Answer:

5.84%    

Explanation:

We use the RATE function that is shown in the excel. Kindly find the attachment below:

The NPER shows the time period.  

Given that,  

Present value = $45

Future value or Face value = $47

PMT = $2

NPER = 3

The formula is shown below:

= Rate(NPER,PMT,-PV,FV,type)    

So, the annual compound rate of return is 5.84%

What is the rate of interest on a loan of $2,000, for 284 days, if the amount of interest is $93.37, using the exact interest me
vesna_86 [32]

Exact interest method is using 365 days instead of 360.

 

We are going to use the formula: I = Prt, we will derived the formula of rate.

r = I /Pt would be our formula, plugging in our amounts.

r = 93.37 / 2000 / (284/365)

= 93.37 / 2000 (0.7781)

= 93.37 / 1556.1643

= 0.06 or 6% when converted to percent.

 

To check:

I = Prt

= 2000 x 0.06 x 284/365

= 120 x 0.7781

= 93.37
