Sailmaster makes high-performance sails for competitive windsurfers. Below is information about the inputs and outputs for one m

odel, the Windy 2000. (Please note that the second part of this question is different from other examples found online).
Units sold 1,217
Sales price each $1,700
Total labor hours 46,672
Wage rate $12/hour
Total materials $60,000
Total energy $4,000
Calculate:
I. the productivity in sales revenue/labor expense
(I think that I have done this part correctly; part II is what I don't understand)
(1217 x 1700) / (46672 x 12) =
2068900 / 560064 = 3.69
II. the total productivity.
I understand that total productivity could be expressed in units sold, or dollars of sales; please show both.

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. The productivity in terms of sales revenue / labor expense:

Sales revenue = Units sold × sales price

= 1,217 × $1,700

= $2,068,900

Labor expense = Total labor hours × wage rate

= 4,6672 × $12

= $560,064

Now sales revenue to labor expense is

= $2,068,900 ÷ $560,064

= 3.69

2. Total productivity

As we know that

Total productivity =Output ÷ (labor + material + energy)

= ($2,068,900) ÷ ($560,064 +  $60,000 + $4,000)

= $2,068,900 ÷ $624,064

= $3.315

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

C) Third

Explanation:

The first meal gives you 4 units of utility for every dollar spent (= 100 utility / $25).

The second meal gives you 5 units of utility for every dollar spent (= 10 utility / $2).

The third meal gives you 10 units of utility for every dollar spent (= 50 / $5). We should choose the meal that provides us with the greatest utility per dollar.

Katen [24]

Answer: Investment for Desmond and US foreign direct investment.

Explanation:

This is an investment for Desmond because he owns the store. He is therefore the equity shareholder and investor into the store.

It is also a U.S. Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) because FDI is what describes a situation where an entity from a country goes to another country and sets up a business there that they will own and operate. Desmond being a U.S. citizen is operating a store in another country so this is U.S. FDI.

Klose Outfitters Inc. believes that its optimal capital structure consists of 60 percent common equity and 40 percent debt, and
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

WACC 10.38305%

Explanation:

<em><u>First we solve for the source of financing:</u></em>

Expansion: 5,900,000

60% Equity: 3,540,000

Retained Earnins 2,000,000

then 1,540,000 will be common equity

40% debt: 2,360,000 It can raise up to 3,000,000 so it will be sufficient

D  2,360

E  1,540

RE 2000

V  5,900

Now we can solve for Weighted average cost of capital

WACC = K_e(\frac{E}{E+RE+D}) + K_{re}(\frac{P}{E+RE+D}) + K_d(1-t)(\frac{D}{E+RE+D})

Ke 0.15

Equity weight 0.261016949 (1,540,000 / 5,900,000)

Kre 0.12

RE Weight  0,338983  (2,000,000 / 5,900,000)

Kd 0.1

Debt Weight 0.4 ( 2,360,000 / 5,900,000)

t 0.4

WACC = 0.15(0.261016949152542) + 0.12(0.338983050847458) + 0.1(1-0.4)(0.4)

WACC 10.38305%
