Answer:

Omega Company

B) Product Y should be produced because it will produce greater total profit.

Explanation:

If only Product X is produced, the total profit it will produced is:

Selling price = $35

Variable Cost = $20

Contribution = $15

Total Contribution = $15 x 75,000/4 = $281,250

If only Product Y is produced, the total profit will be:

Selling price = $25

Variable cost = $15

Contribution = $10

Total Contribution = $10 x 75,000/2 = $375,000

Product Y therefore produces a greater total profit.  This is because the fixed cost will remain the same if there are no avoidable elements.

Answer:

B) Product Y should be produced because it will produce greater total profits

Explanation:

The contribution margin per unit determines the contribution per unit for a given product. The contribution margin in limited resources is calculated by dividing contribution margin by per unit scarce resource. The product X contribution margin is $15 ($35 - $20) and product Y contribution margin is $10. Keeping the scarce resource if machine hours in view the contribution margin is

Product X = $15 / 4 machine hours = $3.75 per machine hour

Product Y = $10 / 2 machine hours = $5 per machine hour

The Omega Company should produce more of product Y because it uses less machine hours and is more profitable.

Goshia [24]

Answer:

No, because they violated the duty of care

Explanation:

Business judgement rule is a provision that protects the management of a business from frivolous legal action concerning the way it does business.

The court assumes that the management acts in good faith in its fiduciary role, standard of loyalty, prudence, and care.

Duty of care is breached when the management do not make reasonable effort to prevent injury or loss.

In this instance Signal board is not protected by the business judgement rule because they violated duty of care.

Although the offer by Burmah oil is above the valuation a month ago, the board did not bother to do a present valuation or find out if other companies want to buy the subsidiary at a higher price.
