Answer:
Most of the question is missing, so I looked for a similar one and found the attached image.
CPI = (current year price × base year quantity) / (base year price × Base year quantity)
CPI for bread in current year = [($1.50 × 2,000) / ($1 × 2,000)] x 100 = 150
CPI for laptops in current year = [($1,500 × 100) / ($2,000 × 100)] x 100 = 75
CPI for movies in current year = [($7 × 50) / ($5 × 50)] x 100 = 140
CPI for current year = (CPI for bread x weight of bread) + (CPI of laptops x weight of laptops) + (CPI of movies x weight of movies) = (150 x $2,250/$227,530) + (75 x$225,000/$227,530) + (140 x $280/$227,530) = 1.48 + 74.17 + 0.17 =75.82
Answer:
b. $85,000
Explanation:
First, we should prepare the analysis of cost savings if the company buys outside.
Analysis of cost and savings
Purchase (5,000 units × $68) = ($340,000)
Savings
Variable cost = $80,000
Fixed cost = $175,000
Net income effect
($85,000)
The effect is a decrease in net income by $85,000.
Answer:
The correct answer is: whenever they over- or under-allocate resources to a project.
Explanation:
A government is considered to be wasteful by the economists if it over-allocates or under-allocates resources on a project. Whenever resources are not efficiently or optimally allocated it is considered wasteful.
In case resources are over-allocated, the reason is given that the excess resources could have been used somewhere else.
In case resources are under-allocated, the reason is given that the given resources will not be able to provide the desired output.
Answer:
(a) C(x) = 9500 + 55x
(b) R(x) = 90x
(c) P(x) = 35x - 9500
(d) C(240) = $22,700
All functions are measured in $.
Explanation:
The total revenue of an entity is a function of the number of units sold and the selling price per unit. The total cost is a function of the fixed cost and the variable cost (which is also a function of the units produced/sold). Profit is a function of sales and cost.
Given that monthly;
fixed costs = $9500
variable costs = $55 per unit
Selling price = $90 per unit
Where x is the number of units
total costs C(x) in $ = 9500 + 55x
total revenue R(x) in $ = 90x
profit P(x) in $ = 90x - (9500 + 55x)
= 35x - 9500
C(240) = 9500 + 55(240)
= $22,700
