Which of the products should be processed beyond the split-off point? Product X Product Y Product Z
B) yes no yes
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Budgeted data for the next month:
products X Y Z
Units produced 2,400 2,900 3,900
Per unit sales value at split-off $ 21.00 $ 24.00 $ 24.00
Added processing costs per unit $ 3.00 $ 5.00 $ 5.00
Per unit sales value if processed further $ 25.00 $ 25.00 $ 30.00
Added profit after further processing $ 1.00 ($4.00) $ 1.00
Further processing of the products X, Y, and Z will yield further or added profit of $1.00 from products X and Z, but a loss of $4 from product Y. Therefore, product Y should not be processed further, unless its cost structure is such that there is a more than $4 profit to be generated and its further processing is necessary for the other two to be sold, that is if the three products must be sold jointly. In such a case, management could take further analysis to reduce the cost for consumers.
The correct answer is B. of fluctuations in the demand for reserves.
Explanation:
The management of the interest rate is perhaps one of the areas of economic policy that has raised the most controversy among policymakers. Much of it comes from both the interpretation of the role that the interest rate plays in macroeconomic adjustment, and the real possibility of achieving effective control over it.
Regarding the role of the interest rate, there are opposing positions about the influence that this variable may have on that of termination of savings investment. Thus, for example, from a Keynesian perspective, a weak relationship is raised between saving the interest rate, since it depends primarily on the level of income, while great importance is attached to this variable as a determinant of investment. Under this scheme, control over the interest rate can be justified since it would have the advantage of stimulating economic activity through greater investment, without significantly affecting savings levels.
