Answer:

9 containers

Explanation:

Data given

Container holds (capacity) = 200 units

Demand rate per minute = 10 units

The computation of number of containers needed is shown below:-

Time to fill container = Setup time + Processing time

= 60 + 120

= 180 minutes

Number of containers (n) = (Demand × Time to fill container) ÷ Capacity of the container

= (10 × 180) ÷ 200

= 1,800 ÷ 200

= 9 containers

Therefore for computing the number of containers we simply applied the above formula.

lidiya [134]

Answer:

Depreciation base = $27352

Explanation:

The depreciation base is the term used to refer to the value of the asset that qualifies for depreciation. This is generally the cost of the asset less any amount for salvage value or residual value of the asset.

Depreciation base =  Cost - Salvage value

We first need to determine the cost of the machine. The cost of the machine will include the purchase price of the machine plus any cost incurred to bring the machine into the condition and place of its intended use.

Thus, the cost of the machine will be,

<u>Machine Cost</u>

Purchase price          29120

Title fees                    208

Property tax               130

Shipping charges       520

Site preparation cost <u>494  </u>

total cost                    30472

Depreciation base = 30472 - 3120

Depreciation base = $27352

A U.S. company (like Jelly Belly) makes its gourmet jelly beans in the United States, and sugar is about half the cost of produc
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer: Highly doubtful.

Explanation:

U.S. sugar protection policies save producers in the U.S. billions of dollars so those companies continually lobby for the government to keep up the policies.

A company such as Jelly Belly is not influential enough to fight off the various sugar interests unless there are other players like Jelly Belly in the game. The text makes no mention of them however so it must just be Jelly Bean and they do not have the influence to get the government to reverse policy.

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

0.09 or 9%

Explanation:

This question has some irregularities. The correct question should be :

Elinore is asked to invest $4,900 in a​ friend's business with the promise that the friend will repay $5,390 in one​ year's time. Elinore finds her best alternative to this​ investment, with similar​ risk, is one that will pay her $ 5,341 in one​ year's time. U.S. securities of similar term offer a rate of return of 7​%. What is the opportunity cost of capital in this​ case?

Solution

Given from the question

Investment (I) = $4,900

Return on investment (ROI) in one year = $5,341

Rate or opportunity cost of capital r is given by

ROI = I × (1 + r)

input the given data

$5,341 = $4,900 (1 + r)

$5,341 = $4,900 + $4,900r

$5,341 - $4,900 = $4,900r

r = ($5,341 - $4,900) / $4,900

r = 0.09

Or 9% in percentage

LO 1.2Who are the primary users of the information gathered by managerial accountants?
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

managers of the organization

Explanation:

Management Accounting - The main purpose of accounting is to provide a database for business leaders to make the right decisions. Management accounting performs the same function as an area of ​​accounting. Simply the information that the management accounting reveals is intended for internal users of the enterprise, and some literature has described it as "good" data.

Internal users use management accounting data to develop strategies, plan work, make decisions, and optimize resource use.

The main differences between the Financial Accounting (FA) and the Management Accounting (MA) are the dual registration system in the FA. The FA should comply with the legislation and the monetary measure. MA has no legal requirement, and natural, labor and so on. Dimensions can be used. One of the most important differences is that the FA reflects on what has happened, and MA prepares predictive reports on what has happened and about future events.Thus, MA calculations help in making decisions on internal procedures, budgeting and other projected reports.
