The mean cost of a meal for two in a mid-range restaurant in Tokyo is $40 (Numbeo website, December 14, 2014). How do prices for

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

a. 2.13. b. (30.53, 34.79). c. The mean prices for two in mid-range restaurants in Hong Kong are relatively less than those in Tokyo restaurants.

Explanation:

The size of the sample is 42 and the mean of the sample is ∑ $x_{i}n$ = 32.66 and the standard deviation of the sample (σ) is √[∑( $x_{i}$ -μ)^2 - 1] = √46.6092 = 6.8271

a. α = 1 - (95/100) = 0.05; α/2 = 0.025; the degree of freedom = n-1 = 42-1 = 41; tα/2 = t0.025 = 2.02. Thus, the error margin = (tα/2)*(σ/√n) = 2.02*(6.83/√42) = 2.1279

b. Lower level limit = 32.66 - 2.1279 = 30.5321; Upper level limit = 32.66+2.1279 = 34.7879. The interval estimate = (mean± margin of error) = (30.53, 34.79).

c. The mean prices for two in mid-range restaurants in Hong Kong are relatively less than those in Tokyo restaurants.

A proposed project has fixed costs of $83,000 per year. The operating cash flow at 9,100 units is $ 102,900. Ignoring the effect

natta225 [31]

Answer:

Ignoring the effect of taxes, what is the degree of operating leverage?

1.81

If units sold rise from 9,100 to 9,500, what will be the increase in operating cash flow?

$8,171.43 or 7.94%

what is the new degree of operating leverage?

1.75

Explanation:

degree of operating leverage = (units sold x contribution margin) / [(units sold x contribution margin) - fixed costs]

(units sold x contribution margin) - fixed costs] = $102,900

units sold x contribution margin = $102,900 + $83,000 = $185,900

degree of operating leverage = $185,900 / $102,900 = 1.81

contribution margin = $185,900 / 9,100 = $20.4286

operating cash flow (at 9,500 units) = (9,500 x $20.4286) - $83,000 = $111,071.43

operating cash flow will increase by $8,171.43 or 7.94%

new degree of operating leverage = $194,071.43 / $111,071.43 = 1.75
