Paladinen [302]

Answer:

A. 566 pounds

Explanation:

Given: Demand for rice is very consistent= 200 pounds per month.

           Cost of rice per order= $50 per order.

           Rice cost= $5 per pound.

           Carrying charge= 15%

EOQ: Economic order quantity (EOQ) is the number of units that company should include in their inventory with each order to reduce cost of inventory.

Now, calculating EOQ.

Formula; EOQ= \sqrt{\frac{2DP}{C} }

D= Demand in units for specified period.

P= relevant ordering costs per order.

C= Relevant carrying cost of one unit in stock for the time period used for D.

EOQ= \sqrt{\frac{2\times (50)(200\times 12)}{5\times 15\%} }

⇒ EOQ= \sqrt{\frac{2(50)(2400)}{5\times (0.15)} }

Opening parenthesis

⇒ EOQ=  \sqrt{\frac{240000}{0.75} }

⇒ EOQ= \sqrt{320000}

∴ EOQ= 565.68\ pound \approx 566\ pounds

Hence, Economic order quantity is 566 pounds.

If the liabilities of a business increased $75,000 during a period of time and the owner's equity in the business decreased $30,
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

D. Increased $45,00

Explanation:

Assume that the total assets of the business was $100,000 and the liabilities was $50,000 and the equity was also $50,000.These figures can be expressed in terms of the accounting equation as follows:

Total assets=Total liabilities+Total equity

100,000=50,000+50,000

Now consider that the above mentioned liabilities are increased by $75,000 as stated in question and above mentioned equity is decreased by $30,000 as stated in question, then the assets as per accounting equation can be determined as follows:

Total liabilities=50,000+75,000=$125,000

Total equity=50,000-30,000=$20,000

Assets=$125,000+$20,000=145,000

Total increase in assets=$145,000-$100,000=$45,000

So the answer is D. Increased $45,000

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

c. less corporate profits.

Subtract all the expenses from the revenue that are solely associated with Cookbook product line.

60000 - 36000 - 18000 - 2000 = 4000

This $4000 suggests that CookBook product line contributes profit of 4000 towards the company. So If the cookbook product line had been discontinued prior to this year, the company would have reported less corporate profits by $4000.
