Wood County Hospital consumes 1,000 boxes of bandages per week. The price of bandages is $35 per box, and the hospital operates

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

= $367.34

Explanation:

Economic order quantity (EOQ) is the order quantity that minimizes the balance of holding cost and ordering cost. At the EOQ, the holding costs are equal to the ordering costs.

EOQ = (2× Co× D)/Ch

Total relevant cost of inventory = ordering cost + Holding cost

Step 1

Total cost of inventory under EOQ

EOQ for Wood County

EOQ = 2√(2× 15 × 1000× 52)/(15%× 35)

= 545.10 units

ordering cost =( (1000× 52)/ 545.10 ) × 15 = 1,430.90

Holding cost = ( 545.10/ 2) × 15% × 35 =1,430.90

Total cost =1430.90 + 1430.90= $2,861.81

Step 2

Total cost of inventory using order size of 900 boxes

ordering cost =( (1000× 52)/900 ) × 15 = 866.66

Holding cost = (900/ 2) × 15% × 35 = 2,362.5

Total cost = 866.66 + 2,362.5 = $3,229.16

Step 3

Calculate in savings in total costs

Savings = Difference in total inventory cost of EOQ order size and 900 boxes order size :

=$3,229.16-$2,861.81

= $367.34

Savings = $367.34

Suppose a life insurance company sells a $290 comma 000 one-year term life insurance policy to a 20-year-old female for $280

Monica [59]

Answer:

The insurance company will gain an expected value $176.66032

Explanation:

The expected value is the gain or loss of an event and is calculated each outcome by its probability.

In our case we have to consider all events as follows;

The probability of dying means the insurance company will have a loss of $290,000 and gain $280 which is the cost of the policy. The probability of this happening=(1-probability of living)=(1-0.999644)=0.000356

The probability of living means the insurance company will gain $280, and the probability of this happening=0.999644

The gain or loss from death=280-290,000=-$289,720

The gain or loss from living=$280

Expected value=(The loss from death×probability of death)+(The gain from living×probability of living)

where;

The loss from death=-$290,000

Probability of death=0.000356

The gain from living=$280

Probability of living=0.999644

replacing;

Expected value=(-290,000×0.000356)+(280×0.999644)

Expected value=(-103.24+279.90032)

Expected value=$176.66032

The insurance company will gain an expected value $176.66032

Given some of the apparent problems with Wilkerson’s cost system, should executives abandon overhead assignment to products enti

Aneli [31]

Answer:

Current issues in the framework by regarding fabricating costs as a period cost

Assembling overhead is evaluated bu increasing direct work with 300%. This estimation isn't exact and doesn't speak to how the genuine variable sub-costs that form the manufacturing overhead act for example machine related costs, arrangement work, getting and creation control, designing, bundling and sending. In spite of the fact that there could be a connection between the measure of direct work cost and the all out manufacturing overhead, this present strategy for estimation is dubious and ignores the real segments of manufacturing overhead.

Advantage of Product Cost

Increasingly exact impression of the inconstancy of the sources for example on the off chance that there are five factors, it is more precise than one.

Advantage of Period Cost

Treating manufacturing overhead as a period cost implies that it stays simpler to contrast Wilkerson's and a rival, given that contender likewise treats manufacturing overhead as a period cost for example it is simpler to analyze like-for-like

Lawrence Summers served as secretary of the treasury in the Clinton administration and as director of National Economic Council

babunello [35]

Answer:

A) taking the cost into account because money spent on pollution reduction is not available for other worthy activities.

Explanation:

The economic approach tries to find solutions for problems optimizing the use of economic resources, therefore reducing costs and increasing benefits for every dollar spent.

Resources are scarce and that includes everyone, from a normal individual, to the richest person in the world, or the richest country in the world. The economic approach states that we should all try to maximize the benefits we obtain while exchanging resources. For example, if we need to study for a text and we know that solving problems helps us to learn more than just reading, then we should spend more time solving problems than reading because that way we can increase our benefits.

The US government and every other government in the world works on a budget and the money it spends doing A, will not be spent doing B. So the government must decide which actions to take in order for maximizing the benefits of the population (i.e. choose between A or B depending on which causes the greatest common good).
