Answer: a. price floor

A price support is a type of price floor.

Explanation:

Price floor refers to a price control in which the government set the minimum price a commodity or product can be sold. It brings about a market surplus due to the fact that the quantity supplied at the price floor is higher than or exceed the quantity demanded. The government uses price floor in preventing prices from being too low. An example of a price floor is minimum wage (price) payed for labour.

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

1. What is the contribution margin per hour of machine time for each type of team shirts?

Homerun =  $ 50

Goalpost = $30

2. What is the optimal mix of team shirts?

Homerun = 50,890

Goalpost = 3,822

3. What is the total contribution margin earned for the optimal mix?

Total contribution margin earned for the optimal mix = $311,780

Explanation:

1. Contribution margin per hour of machine time for each type of team shirts

Homerun

Contribution margin per hour of machine = $5 / (6/60)

= $ 50

Goalpost

Contribution margin per hour of machine = $15 / (30/60)

= $30

2. Optimal mix of team shirts

Determine if machine time is a limiting factor

Demanded Hours

Homerun 0.1 × 50,890 = 5,089

Goalpost 0.5 × 50,890 = 25445

Total Hours Demanded = 30,534

Available Hours

Available hours =1,000 hour × 7 machines

=7,000 hours

Demanded Hours > Available hours

Therefore machine time is a limiting factor

Determine Mix

Rank the T-Shirts based on contribution margin per hour of machine time

Position 1. Homerun = 5,089

Position 2. Goalpost = 1,911 (takes the remaining hours)

Number of T-Shirts (mix)

Homerun = 5,089 / 0.1 = 50,890

Goalpost = 1,911 / 0.5 = 3,822

3. The total contribution margin earned for the optimal mix

Homerun = 50,890 × $5 =254,450

Goalpost = 3,822 × $15 = 57,330

Total = 311,780

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

The correct answer is B

Explanation:

The net cost of goods is computed as if the paid in the discounting period:

Net Cost of goods = Inventory cost - (Inventory cost × Discounting percentage)

where

Inventory cost is $9,000

Discounting percentage is 2%

Putting the values above:

Net Cost of goods = $9,000 - ($9,000 × 2%)

Net Cost of goods = $9,000 - $180

Net Cost of goods = $8,280

Therefore, the amount of $8,280 will be paid by the company if paid within the discounting period and avail the discount of $180.

Kim is trying to decide whether she can afford a loan she needs in order to go to chiropractic school. Right now Kim is living a

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

Debt to income ratio is all your debt payments divided by all the money you earn during a month. Generally you are considered to be in good financial shape when your debt to income ratio is less than 20%, if it's less than 10% it is even better.

Kim's gross income = $1,230 - $165 (taxes) = $1,065

Kim's total debt payments without new debt = $134 (credit card payments)

Kim's total debt payments including new debt = $134 + $172 (new debt) = $306

Kim's debt to income ration without new debt = $134 / $1,065 = 12.58%

Kim's debt to income ration with new debt = $306 / $1,065 = 28.73%

Currently Kim's debt to income ratio is only 12.58% which is very good, but if she takes the new loan then her ratio will increase to 28.73% which is extremely high and not prudent.
