C&A sells 600 bottles of a dietary supplement per week at $100 per bottle. The supplement is ordered from a supplier who cha
alex41 [277]

Answer:

D. $6800

Explanation:

Annual demand = 600 × 50 weeks = 30,000 bottles

Carrying cost or holding cost = $50 × 40% = $20

The economic order quantity = 500 bottles

The number of orders would be equal to

= Annual demand ÷ economic order quantity

= 30,000 ÷ 500

= 60 orders

The average inventory would equal to

= Economic order quantity ÷ 2

= 500 bottles ÷ 2

= 250 bottles

The total cost of ordering cost and carrying cost equals to

Ordering cost = Number of orders × ordering cost per order

= 60 orders × $30

= $1,800

Carrying cost = average inventory × carrying cost per unit

= 250 bottles × $20

= $5,000

So, the total would be  

= $5,000 + $1,800

= $6,800

Sheffield Corp. determines that 53000 pounds of direct materials are needed for production in July. There are 3100 pounds of dir
zvonat [6]

Answer:

Budgeted total cost of Direct Material purchases ($) =$ 157,800

Explanation:

<em>Raw material purchase budget is determined by adjusting the raw material usage budget for opening and closing inventory of materials. </em>

Purchase budget = usage budgeted + closing inventory - Opening inventory

Material purchase budget = 53,000 + 2,700 - 3,100= 52,600  pounds

Note the closing inventory represents the stock of materials needed to be kept, hence it will increase the purchase budget. So we added.

On the other hand hands, the opening inventory represented what already existed , hence we subtracted it as it will reduce what will be required.

Material purchase budget ($) = purchase budget in quantity × standard price per quantity

Material purchase budget = 52,600 × $3 = $ 157,800

Budgeted total cost of Direct Material purchases ($) =$ 157,800

A manufacturing firm is considering two locations for a plant to produce a new product. The two locations have fixed and variabl
jeyben [28]

Answer:

1 company to be in different is  15000 units

2 cost =  approximate  $300000

3 Total annual costs  = approximate $380,000

4  cost is less for phoenix and  Phoenix is the ideal location

5 Cost advantage = $18,000 so closed to $20000

Explanation:

given data

Atlanta fixed costs (annual) = 80000

variable costs (per unit) = 20

Phoenix  fixed costs = 140000

variable costs = 16

solution

we consider here output level = x

and price will be = p

so here profit for location will be

profit = Revenue - Variable Cost - Fixed costs   .............1

so here Atlanta profit is  

Profit = px - 20x - 80000     ..................2

and Phoenix profit is  

Profit = px - 16.1x - 140,000      ...................3

so now company to be in different is  

px - 20x - 80000 = px - 16.1x - 140,000

solve we get x here

x =  15,384.62  = 15000 units

and  

and now annual costs for phoenix will be as

annual cost =  Variable cost + Fixed     ...........4

cost = 16.1 × 10,000 + 140,000

cost = 161,000 + 140,000

cost = $301,000 = approximate  $300000

and

Total annual costs will be as

Total annual costs = 20 × 15,384.62 + 80,000

Total annual costs = $387,692.3 = approximate $380,000  

and

Annual demand = 20,000 units

so  

Cost for Atlanta  = 20 × 20000 + 80,000

Cost for Atlanta  = $480,000

Cost for Phoenix = 16.1 × 20000 + 140,000

Cost for Phoenix = $462,000

so cost is less for phoenix and  Phoenix is the ideal location

and

now Cost advantage will be

Cost advantage  = $480,000 - 462,000

Cost advantage = $18,000 so closed to $20000
