Answer:

It is cheaper to make the part. In three years the company will save $12,000.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Units= 40,000

Variable costs= $1.60 per unit

Fixed costs= $40,000 per year

Gilberto is considering buying the part from a supplier for a quoted price of $2.70 per unit guaranteed for three years.

We need to calculate the total cost of making and buying the part.

Make in-house:

Total cost= 1.6*40,000 + 40,000= $104,000

Buy:

Total cost= 40,000*2.7= $108,000

It is cheaper to make the part. In three years the company will save $12,000.

Answer:

1. Gross Pay = Salary + Bonus

= (13,600 * 12) + (15% * (13,600 * 12))

= 163,200 + 24,480

= $187,680

2.Wallace 2016 Payroll = Gross Pay - Deductions

Deductions

= FICA-Social security tax + FICA-Medicare tax + Federal income tax + State income tax + Charity Fund contribution + Life insurance contribution

= (6.2% x 117,000) +  (1.45% x 187,680) + {(952 x 12) + 3,672} + {(150 x 12) + 90} + (3% x 187,680) + (50 x 12)

= 7,254 + 2,721.36 + 15,096 + 1,890 + 5,630.40 + 600

= $33,191.76

Wallace 2016 Payroll = 187,680 - 33,191.76

= $‭154,488.24‬

Suppose that the price of good X rises from $12.00 to $12.90, and as a result the quantity demanded of good X falls from 5,000 u
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

The price elasticity of demand is 1.14.

The price is Elastic.

Elasticity is more than one so total revenue will fall.

Explanation:

Given the initial price of good x = $12

Final price of good x = $12.90

% change in price = [(12.90 - 12) / 12] x 100 = 7.5 %

Initial quantity = 5000

Final quantity = 4600

% change in quantity = [(4600 - 5000)/5000] x 100 = -8%

Elasticity = % change in quantity / % change in price

Elasticity = 8% / 7%

Elasticity = 1.14

The price elasticity of demand is 1.14.

The price is Elastic.

Since elasticity is more than one so total revenue will fall.
