For Q1, you have to set these equations equal to each other because it is asking how much of x is necessary to make the same amount of y, so:
3995 + 225.50x = 6500 + 100.25x
solve for x:, and get x=20
so 20 tons of sugar will give the companies the same cost.
For Q2: you need to plug in x=20 into either one of the original equations, and solve for y because this will give you the cost of transportation, so:
y= 3995 + 225.50(20)
y=$8,505 for the total cost
B. To help determine how much inventory to keep in stock of each item in the outlet, I would consider two factors. The first one is the <u>certain amount of each item type </u>in the first week - determining the number of each items input in the stock to be the original data to compare. The second is the <u>number of items sold and still on stock</u>. This would help determine invetory to keep in stock.
B. If I was running a store, I would prefer to use the pick up at store buying method. There would be cashier at the register to check the products and bills as well as receive money from the customers. This is the traditional and still always the most common methods. As the fact that people nowadays still like shopping in physical store, this is definitely the most effective method.
C. The inventory control method I would use when operating a store is to adopt modern technology like bar code to control the inventory stock. By using this technology, I would need to consider the <u>bar code</u> for each type and establishing <u>software</u> to automatically input the information about the number of items sold and in stock. With inputting the number of total items at the beginning and giving each item its corresponding bar code, the sales or number of stock would be tracked by the software.
D. An example of two commodities to be displayed together at store is <u>pencil and rubber</u>. Pencil and rubber undoubtedly are complementary products of each other. Complementary products are made to be used together. Each item requires the other for their complete uses. This is also the case of Rubber and Pencil and each item would not be fully used without the presence of the other.
Answer:
b.if 100 units can be produced for $100, then 150 can be produced for $150, 200 for $200, and so forth.
Explanation:
Constant-cost means the cost of producing one unit of product does not change no matter how many products each firm in the industry decide to produce.
If the cost of production is $100 for 100 units, $150 for 150 units, $200 for 200 units and so forth, it means the unit production cost is a constant $1 regardless of the quantity to be produced.
Answer:
Standard hours= 1,200 hours
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
XYZ Corporation's standards call for 1,000 direct labor-hours to produce 250 units of product.
During October the company worked produced 300 units.
<u>First, we need to calculate the standard hour per unit:</u>
Standard hour per unit= 1,000 / 250= 4 hours per unit
Now, the standard hours allowed for 300 units:
Standard hours= standard hour per unit*number of units
Standard hours= 4*300
Standard hours= 1,200 hours
