Answer:

c. $1.58.

Explanation:

The computation of the direct materials cost per equivalent unit is given below:

Equivalent units for material is

= 100% of 193,000 + 100% of 28,000

= 193,000 + 28,000

= 221,000

Equivalent cost for material is

= $94,100 + $254,800

= $348,900

So, the direct materials cost per equivalent unit is

= $348,900 ÷ 221,000

= $1.58

Which of the following is TRUE regarding the economic order quantity (EOQ) model? A. Demand rate is dependent on order quantity.
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

D. Holding cost per unit per year is dependent on the selling price per unit.

Explanation:

The formulas are shown below:

Economic order quantity:

= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{Annual demand}\times \text{Ordering cost}}{\text{Carrying cost}}}

The number of orders would be equal to

= Annual demand ÷ economic order quantity

The average inventory would equal to

= Economic order quantity ÷ 2

The total cost of ordering cost and carrying cost equals to

Ordering cost = Number of orders × ordering cost per order

Carrying cost = average inventory × carrying cost per unit

If in the question, the carrying cost is given in the percentage than the per unit cost is come after multiplying it with the selling price per unit

barxatty [35]

Answer:

Sparrow Co's automobiles are premium brands that command premium prices

Explanation:

The fact that both automobile makers incurs the same cost of $9,000 is just one of many factors to consider because the processes involved in manufacturing are not necessarily the same.

Besides,the level of workforce efficiency and the state of technology deployed are not necessarily the same.

It could also be that Sparrow Co. was able to achieve same level of cost with Bison Autos because it adopted modern cost reductions techniques such as Just-In Time which eliminates the need to keep inventory, thereby  eliminating excessive costs of holding inventory.

All in all,Sparrow Co,could project itself as a maker of high-end brands and increase prices as appropriate.

zalisa [80]

Answer:

563.4 cents

Explanation:

A margin call occurs when the margin of an investment falls bellow the maintenance margin.

In this problem, the production costs for 5,000 bushels are given by:

Margin = Price*units -Cost\\\$1,500=\$5.714*5000 - Cost\\Cost = \$27,070

The price per bushel that yields a margin of $1,100 is:

\$1,100=Price*5,000- \$27,070\\Price =\$5.634=563.4\ cents

You will receive a margin call at a price of 563.4 cents per bushel.
