Tots Toys makes a plastic tricycle that is composed of three major components: a handlebar-front wheel-pedal assembly, a seat an

d frame unit, and rear wheels. The company has orders for 12,000 of these tricycles. Current schedules yield the following information.
Requirements Component Time Space Manufacture Production
Front 3 10 2 $8 $12
Seat/Frame 4 6 2 6 9
Rear Wheel (each) 0.5 2 0.1 1 3
Available 50,000 160,000 30,000

The company obviously does not have the resources available to manufacture everything needed for the completion of 12000 tricycles so has gathered purchase information for each component. Develop a linear programming model to tell the company how many of each component should be manufactured and how many should be purchased in order to provide 12000 fully completed tricycles at the minimum cost.

The expected rates of return on portfolios A and B are 11% and 14%, respectively. The beta of A is 0.8 and the beta of B is 1.5.
Zigmanuir [339]

Total cost= $204,750

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Fixed costs: supervisor’s salary $3,000; factory rent $6,500

Mixed costs: utilities $3,500 + $10.25 per unit

Required: Compute total costs to be incurred for a week with 2,950 units of activity.

Fixed costs= 3,000 + 6,500 + 3,500= $13,000

Variable costs= (10.25 + 30 + 13.5 + 7.25 + 4)*2,950= $191,750

Total cost= $204,750

DuPont system of analysis Use the following ratio information for Johnson International and the industry averages for​ Johnson's
Verizon [17]

Answer:

a) DuPont analysis for Johnson International

2013: 0.059 x 2.11 x 1.75 = 0.2179 = 21.79%

2014: 0.058 x 2.18 x 1.75 = 0.2213 = 22.13%

2015: 0.049 x 2.34 x 1.85 = 0.2121 = 21.21%

b) DuPont analysis for industry averages

2013: 0.054 x 2.05 x 1.67 = 0.2121 = 21.21%

2014: 0.047 x 2.13 x 1.69 = 0.1692 = 16.92%

2015: 0.041 x 2.15 x 1.64 = 0.1446 = 14.46%

c) Johnson International's drivers follow the same tendency as the industry's average, e.g. net profit margin decreased in a similar manner, and total asset turnover increased also in a similar manner to the industry's average. The only driver that doesn't follow the industry's trend is financial leverage. While other companies in the same industry decreased their financial leverage, Johnson increased it. You should further analyze why this happened and what are the potential consequences.

Explanation:

The DuPont analysis is used to break down ROE into 3 different components and that way you can analyze whether a company's high ROE comes along with a high risk. The following formula is used to calculate ROE based on 3 different factors:

R OE = net pro fit margin x total assets turnover x financial leverage
