Answer:
a. Production decreased by 4 percent
Explanation:
In 2009, production: 60,000 units
Hours worked per day: 80x8= 640 hours
Productivity= 60,000/640 hours =93.75 units per day
In 2010: production: 76 500 units
Hours worked per day= 85x10= 850 hours
productivity= 76,500/850= 90 units per day
In 2010, production decreased by 3.75 per day. (93.75-90.00)
percentage decrease= (3.75/93.75) x 100=4
In 2010 production decreased by 4 percent
Answer:
Explanation:
A:
Number of contracts required:
= (0-1.2)×36,000,000÷(900×$250)
= -192
Since negative value, short 192 contracts.
B:
= (0.9 - 1.2)×36,000,000÷(900×$250)
= -48
Since negative value, short 48 contracts.
C:
= (1.8 - 1.2)×36,000,000÷(900×$250)
= 96
Since positive value, long 48 contracts.
Answer:
variable pricing
Explanation:
A variable pricing strategy refers to selling a same product or service at a different price depending on the sales location, date, or other factors. This type of strategy is used to try to maximize revenue by adjusting price to the different categories of our points of sale or our customers.
In case of sports teams, they will price their seats based on other factors like who is the opponent (current champion v. bad teams), day of the week (weekends v. weekdays) or the time of the season (middle of the season v. near playoffs), etc.
...increase due to unemployed people becoming employed and joining labor force, along with the fact that the working age population is staying constant
Answer:
The correct answer to the following question is option C) $1800.
Explanation:
Given information -
Product sales - 1000 units
Sales price - $10
Variable manufacturing cost - $5.50 per unit
Fixed manufacturing overhead - $1200
Variable selling and administrative costs - $.50 per unit
Fixed selling and administrative cost - $1000
Units produced - 1200 units
Manufacturing contribution per unit = Sales price per unit - Variable
manufacturing cost per unit
= $10 -$5.50
= $4.50
Manufacturing contribution margin -
Number of units sold x manufacturing contribution per unit
= 1000 x $4.50
= $4500
While the contribution margin per unit -
$4.50 - $.50
= $4
which means the total contribution margin would be 1000 x $4
= $4000
And now subtracting Fixed manufacturing overhead and Fixed selling and administrative costs from the total contribution margin to get the operating income -
$4000 - $1200 - $1000
= $1800
