The term <u>"proliferation"</u> is the act of greatly increasing something.

Proliferation is a quick duplication of parts or the expansion in the quantity of something. Nuclear proliferation is a quick increment of nuclear weapons.

The proliferation of any living thing will frequently make an overpopulation issue and cause an environmental imbalance. We quite often utilize this word to depict stuff we would prefer not to increment quickly. The excessive proliferation of transformed cells, for example, is the way cancer develops.

A music school has budgeted to purchase three musical instruments. they plan to purchase a piano costing $3,000, a guitar costin

daser333 [38]

Assuming the costs are normally distributed, then Z = (X-mu)/sigma

For piano Z= (3000-4000)/2500 = -0.4

For guitar Z= (550-500)/200 = 0.25

For drums set Z= (600-700)/100 = -1

Drums set < Piano < Guitar

Drums cost is lowest when compared to the instruments of same type .

Guitar cost is highest when compared to the instruments of same type.

Identify whether the actions or scenarios would likely increase or decrease the natural rate of unemployment. You are currently

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

increases natural rate of unemployment

extra financial benefits for the unemployed

a large number of young people entering the labor force

an increase in union membership

Decreases natural rate of unemployment

reducing workers' collective bargaining rights

Explanation:

natural rate of unemployment is unemployment that exists when there is only structural and frictional unemployment in an economy

structural unemployment is an unemployment that occurs as a result of changes in the economy. These changes can be as a result of changes in technology, polices or competition . Structural unemployment tends to be permanent.

Frictional unemployment . the period of time a person is unemployed from the period he leaves his current job and the time he gets another job. Eg. when a real estate agent who leaves a job in Texas and searches for a similar, higher-paying job in California.

If the unemployed are given extra benefits, there would be less incentive to find a job, thus unemployment would increase

An increase in union membership increases bargaining power of employees. this can lead to increase in wages. increase in wages reduces demand for labour and this increases unemployment. reducing collective bargaining right has the opposite effect on unemployment

a large number of people entering the labour force increases frictional unemployment

3-30 Operating leverage. Cover Rugs is holding a 2-week carpet sale at Josh’s Club, a local warehouse store. Cover Rugs plans to

Leni [432]

Answer:

The step by step answer to your problem is given below:

Explanation:

1A) Break even point for option 1:

Sales- Variable cost= Fixed cost

Q* $950-Q*$760= $7410

Q*$190= $7410

Q=$7410/$190

Q= 39 carpets

1B) Breakeven point for Option 2

Sales- variable cost-rent cost= 0

Q*$950- $760*Q- (Q*950*10%)= 0

95Q= 0

Q= 0

2. At what level of revenues will Cover Rugs earn the same operating income under either option?

Operating income under Option 1 = $190Q - $7140

Operating income under Option 2 = $95Q

We have to find Q such that $190Q - $7140 = $95Q

Q=$7410/$95= 78 Carpets

Revenue= $950 x 78 = $74,100

For Q = 78 Carpets, operating income under both option 1 and 2 will be = $7410

a. For what range of unit sales will Cover Rugs prefer Option 1? b. For what range of unit sales will Cover Rugs prefer Option 2?

For Q > 78, say 79 carpets:

Option 1 gives operating income= (190*79) - 7410= $7600

Option 2 gives operating income= 95*79= $7505

So color rugs will prefer Option 1.

For Q < 78, say 77 carpets:

Option 1 gives operating income= (190*77) - 7410= $7220

Option 2 gives operating income= 95*77= $7315

So color rugs will prefer Option 2.

3. Calculate the degree of operating leverage at sales of 65 units for the two rental options.

Operating Leverage= $\frac{Contribution margin}{Operating Income}$

= Contribution margin per unit x Numbers of Carpet Sold= Contribution Margin

Under Option 1,

Contribution Margin per unit= $950-$760=$190,

Operating income= $190*65-$7410= $4940.

Degree of Operating Leverage= $\frac{190*65}{6175}$

=2.5

Under Option 2,

Contribution Margin per unit= $950-$760-$760-0.10*$950=$95,

Operating income= $95x65-$0= $6175.

$\frac{95*65}{6175}$

=1.0

4. Briefly explain and interpret your answer to requirement 3.

The degree of operating leverage helps managers calculate and anticipate the effects of fluctuations in sales on operating income. The calculation in requirement 3 show that when sales are 65 units, a % change in sales and contribution margin will result in 2.5 times that % change in operating income for option 1. But the same % change in Option 2 because there are no fix costs attached in option 2.
