Answer:

The correct answer is option (D).

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows:

Variable cost = Direct material + Direct labor + Variable manufacturing overhead + Variable selling cost per unit

Variable cost of product A = $17.30 + $19.30 + $6.10 + $3.05 = $45.75

Variable cost of product B = $21.20 + $22.70 + $7.30 + $3.75 = $54.95

Variable cost of product C = $14.20 + $17.10 + $9.80 + $4.50 = $45.60

Variable cost of product D = $16.90 + $11.10 + $6.80 + $5.20 = $40

Contribution per unit (CPU) = selling price per unit – variable cost

Product A CPU = $87.20 - $45.75 = $41.45

Product B CPU = $79.60 - $54.95 = $24.65

Product C CPU = $76.40 - $45.60 = $30.8

Product D CPU = $71.10 - $40 = $31.10

Contribution per grinding minutes (CPGM) = CPU ÷ contribution per grinding minutes

CPGM of Product A = $41.45 ÷ 2.30 = $18.02

CPGM of Product B = $24.65 ÷ 1.35 = $18.26

CPGM of Product C = $30.8 ÷ 0.90 = $34.22

CPGM of Product D = $31.10 ÷ 1.20 = $25.92

According to the analysis, Product C makes the most profitable use of grinding machine. Because it’s give the highest contribution per grinding minutes.

TEA [102]

Answer:

Letter C is correct. Socially complex; rare.

Explanation:

Organizations are increasingly incorporating ecological sustainability initiatives in their processes and activities, this is mainly due to the phenomenon of social complexity, which is the study of human behavior in several broad and complex circumstances that impact individual and group existence, such as example natural disasters, political movements, marriage practices, emigration patterns and others.

Man is not merely a passive agent, but a searcher for fundamental goals for himself and for society for improvement and survival.

Therefore, it is correct to say that organizations' sustainability initiatives are increasingly present in the current world, and that is why they are not uncommon, because sustainability is already seen as a phenomenon of social complexity, where companies that do not act according to sustainable parameters do not they are well regarded by society, which wants to consume products and services from companies in line with the highest social and environmental standards, which act as an active agent for improving the quality of social life.
