Answer:

d. 96,000

Explanation:

Provided required rate of return on investments of $800,000 = 12%

Now desired profit = $800,000 X 12% = $96,000

therefore when fixing the price per unit this profit shall be added, and then reverse calculation is done.

With this we can get the desired profit.

At the last the total of cost and profit shall be divided by number of units to get the selling price per unit.

Therefore desired profit in dollars = $96,000

Answer:

The dollar amount of desired profit from production and sale of the company's product is D) $96,000.

Explanation:

CALCULATING THE TOTAL COST -    

The first step is to calculate the cost of production per unit of product =

Direct material cost + Direct labor cost + Variable factory overhead + Fixed factory overhead cost / Fixed selling and administrative costs

= $5.5 + $7.65 + $2.25 + $82,000 / $45,000

= $16.3 + $1.82

= $17.22

TOTAL COST = $16.3 X $45,000 + $82,000 + $45,000

                       = $860,500

Here we have taken $16.3 because we are taking fixed factory overhead and fixed selling and administrative cost separately.

TOTAL REVENUE = $860,500 + $96,000 ( $800,000 X 12% )

                              = $ 956,500

PROFIT = REVENUE - COST

             = $956,500 - $860,500

             = $96,000

You have a small business that makes $50,000 accounting and economic profit for you. As a disabled person, you must work at home
kifflom [539]

Answer: This means: "d. Your economic profit has gone down and your accounting profit has stayed the same."

Explanation: The difference between the accounting and economic benefit is associated with the type of cost that each includes:

The accounting benefit is nothing more than the difference between income and cost.  In this case it is still $50000.

The economic benefit includes not only explicit costs. The economic benefit is the difference between income and total costs (explicit and implicit). Therefore, this benefit is less than the accounting benefit. Because in this case the cost of working at home is considered.

makkiz [27]

Answer:

a. Chase; inventory level

Explanation:

Chase Strategy is one of the two aggregate planning methods where the production is set according to demand forecasts. Hence in this type of aggregate planning, the inventory level may be increased for a certain duration to cater for higher demands while it can also be lowered through low production for low forecasts. Hence Inventory level may be manipulated to match supply and demand.

Greeley [361]

Answer:

Supervised and Unsupervised Learning:

a. Unsupervised learning

b. Supervised learning

3. Supervised learning

4. Unsupervised learning

Explanation:

The key difference between supervised machine learning and unsupervised machine learning is that with supervised machine learning there is a training dataset (labeled data) on which the algorithm is trained to predict patterns.  With unsupervised machine learning on the other hand, there is no training data.  So, the algorithm discovers patterns on itself without reference to another labeled data or training dataset.

Suppose you win on a scratch‑off lottery ticket and you decide to put all of your $3,500 winnings in the bank. The reserve req
Semenov [28]

Answer:

35000

A, d

Explanation:

Reserve requirement is the portion of deposit received by banks that the central bank requires to be kept as deposit.

If $3500 is deposited and reserve requirement is 10%

reserves would increase by $3500 x 0.10 = $350

Increase in the total value of checkable deposit is determined by the money multiplier

Money multiplier = amount deposited / reserve requirement

3500 / 0.1 = 35000

If the banks keep excess reserves, the amount of money available to be loaned out would reduce and this would reduce the increase in money supply.

Also, if individuals keep the money at home, it would reduce the amount of money that can be loaned out by banks
