Answer:
<h2>The specific identification method</h2>
a) matches each unit of inventory with its actual cost
d) would be beneficial to a company that makes fine jewelry
Explanation:
The specific identification inventory valuation method is one of the inventory valuation method allowed by U.S. GAAP. The other allowed methods are weighted average; and first in, first out (FIFO). The specific identification method identifies every item kept in inventory and its price and tracks it from purchase to resale. Some types of businesses that use the specific identification method are jewelry companies and stores, car dealerships, art galleries, and furniture stores, who can easily identify each item and track the cost and price respectively.
Answer:
100
Explanation:
Goal programming is an optimization technique that allows for multiple, normally conflicting objectives and then attempts to solve each goal sequentially to a satisfactory level. In goal programming, differential variables are being used.
Since the goal programming problem had two goals. Goal number 1 was to achieve a profit of $2,400 and goal number 2 was to have no idle time for workers in the factory. The optimal solution to this problem resulted in a profit of $2,300 and no idle time
This means that goal number 2 was achieved since the optimal solution resulted in no idle time. But goal number 1 was not achieved because a profit of $2300 was achieved in the solution instead of $2400.
Therefore, the value for the objective function for this goal programming problem = 2400 - 2300 = 100
Answer: three times as large
Explanation:
Economic order quantity will be calculated as follows:
EOQ = ✓(2DS/H)
D = Demand in units
Here S = Ordering cost = $10
H = Holding cost
Since S = $10
Therefore, EOQ will be:
= ✓(2DS/H)
= ✓(2 × 10 × D/ H)
= ✓(20D/H)
Since we're to increase the order cost from $10 per order to $90 per order, then EOQ will be:
Since S = $90
Therefore, EOQ will be:
= ✓(2DS/H)
= ✓(2 × 90 × D/ H)
= ✓(180D/H)
3✓20DH
The revised EOQ will then be 3 times as large.
