kipiarov [429]

Answer:

Operating income will be $6,000

Explanation:

The computation of the operating income is shown below:

= Total cost - outsourcing cost

where,

Total cost = Variable cost + fixed cost

Variable cost = Number of microwaves × variable cost per unit

                       = 500 × $26

                       = $13,000

And, the fixed cost is $7,000

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= $13,000 + $7,000

= $20,000

And, the outsourcing cost equal to

= Number of microwaves × outsourcing cost per unit

= 500 × $28

= $14,000

So, the net income would be

= $20,000 - $14,000

= $6,000

UA Hamburger Hamlet (UAHH) places a daily order for its high-volume items (hamburger patties, buns, milk, and so on). UAHH count
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

730 items

Explanation:

The objective of the given information is to determine the number of hamburgers UAHH should order for the following conditions:

Average daily demand 600

Standard deviation of demand 100

Desired service probability 99%

Hamburger inventory 800

The formula for a given order quantity in a fixed period of time can be expressed as :

q = \overline d(L+T)+ z \sigma_{L+T}-I

where;

q =  order quantity = ???

\overline d = daily demand average = 600

L = lead time in days = 1

T = time taken = 1

z = no of standard deviation = ???

\sigma_{L+T} = standard deviation of usage in lead time and time taken = ???

I = present inventory level = 800

\sigma_{L+T} = \sqrt 2 × standard deviation of daily demand

\sigma_{L+T} = \sqrt{2} *100

\sigma_{L+T} = 1.4142 * 100

\sigma_{L+T} = 141.42 items

From the Desired service probability 99% = 0.99; we can deduce the no of standard deviation by using the excel function (=NORMSINV (0.99))

z = 2.33

From q = \overline d(L+T)+ z \sigma_{L+T}-I

q =600(1+1)+ 2.33*(141.42)-800

q =600(2)+ 2.33*(141.42)-800

q =1200+329.5086-800

q = 729.5086 items

q ≅ 730 items

Therefore; the  number of hamburgers UAHH should order from the following given conditions = 730 items

Assume that Crane Company uses a periodic inventory system and has these account balances: Purchases $630,000; Purchase Returns
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

Cost of goods sold =$61,5300

Gross Profit = $144,700

Explanation:

Given the information:

  • Purchase : $630,000
  • Purchase Returns and Allowances $25,700
  • Prchases Discounts $10,900
  • Freight-In $18,300
  • beginning inventory of $45,000
  • ending inventory of $64,600
  • net sales of $760,000

As we the, the fomular for total Goods Available for Sale

=   Beginning Inventory + Purchases + Freight-In - Purchase Returns and Allowances - Purchases Discounts

= $45,000 +  $630,000 + $18,300 - $25,700 - $10,900

= $67,9900

=> Cost of goods sold =  Total Goods Available for Sale - ending inventory

= $67,9900 - $64,600

= $61,5300

=> Gross Profit = Net sales - Cost of goods sold

= $760,000 - $61,5300

= $144,700

Hope it will find you well.
