Answer:

a) the quantity demanded decreases

Explanation:

As we know that'

A monopolist creates a monopoly in the market as the firm is a sole producer for the entire market due to which it charges high prices plus it is a price taker that means it offers cheap quality products at a lesser price

But if monopolist increased its price so the quantity demanded declines as the purchasing power reduced

Therefore option a is correct

natta225 [31]

Answer:

Increase in assets of $8,000 and an increase in liabilities $8,000

Explanation:

The effect of the transaction is shown below with the help of the accounting equation

Liabilities + Owner equity = Assets

$8,000       + 0                        = $8,000

($10,000 - $2,000)

Therefore from the above calculation,  we can see that there is an increase in assets also there will be an increase in liabilities but no effect on stockholder equity

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

  • Economic order quantity= 1406 units
  • Safety Stock= 630 units
  • Reorder Point= 14130 units

Explanation:

Given Demand D= 78,000units/year

Ordering cost S = $38.00/order

Holding cost H = $3.00unit/year

Average lead time = 9 weeks

Standard deviation of weekly demand = 120 units

a) Economic order quantity:

EOQ = \sqrt{(2*D*S)/H}

EOQ = \sqrt{(2*78000*38)/3}

1405.7 = <u>1406 Units</u>

b)<u> Safety Stock:</u>

Weekly demand = 78000/52 =1500 units

Standard deviation of weekly demand = 120 units

Lead time is 9 weeks

Using the normsinv() in excel the Z value for the desired 96% service level is 1.75

Safety stock = z\sigma _{d}\sqrt{L}

= 1.75*120*\sqrt{9}

= 630 units

Reorder point = average lead time demand + safety stock

= lead time * weekly demand + saftey stock

  = 9*1500 + 630

  = 13500 + 630

Reorder point = 14130

The town of Pittsford, NY is in need of a new water treatment plant to meet its average daily demand of 18, 000 m3/d and is acce
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

The 1st plant with a storage reservoir is a better option as compared to that of the 2nd plant.

Explanation:

Suppose the factor for variation in hourly demand is 2 So the average hourly demand is given as

Average Hourly Demand=Factor x Average Daily Demand

AHD=2 x 18000 m3

AHD=36000 m3

For the first pump

The Quantity in storage tank is 3975 m3

So the amount of pumping required is

Q_{pump1}=AHD-Q_{reservoir}\\Q_{pump1}=36000-3975 \\Q_{pump1}=32025 m^3

For this value the pump will work for following hours

t_{pump1}=\frac{Q_{pump}}{pumping rate_1}\\t_{pump1}=\frac{32025}{1750}\\t_{pump1}=18.3 \, hours

So the pump 1 can complete the demand of the town by working for 18.3 hours.

Now in order to complete the demand, the second pump is given as

Q_{pump2}=AHD\\Q_{pump2}=36000 m^3

For this the pump will work for as

t_{pump2}=\frac{Q_{pump2}}{pumping rate_2}\\t_{pump2}=\frac{36000}{2250}\\t_{pump2}=16 \, hours

So the pump 2 requires 16  hours to complete the demand of the town.

Here it is important to note that the realistic demand of the water can vary from the average value and thus when there is a drastic requirement of water in certain cases, the pump 2 will fail. Also pump 2 has to be run continuously and will produce excessive water which will be wasted if the hourly demand is less than that of the production value.

In context of this, the 1st plant with a storage reservoir is a better option as compared to that of the 2nd plant.
