After graduation, you decide to go into a partnership in an office supply store that has existed for a number of years. Walking

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

257 boxes

Explanation:

The computation is given below;

Daily Demand would be

= 5000 ÷ 365

Standard Deviation = 10 boxes

Lead Time = 2 Weeks + 3 Days = 17 Days

Service Level = 0.98

Reorder Point = avg(d) × LT + z × σd × sqrt(LT)

= 5000 ÷ 365 × 17 + 2.05 × 10 × 170.5

= 317

So, the number of boxes should be ordered is

= 317 - 60

= 257 boxes

Prime Corporation's building was destroyed by a tornado. The fair market value of the building at the time of the tornado was $4

Sergio [31]

Answer:

D) $150,000

Explanation:

Insurance proceeds that are not reinvested in replacing damaged property are taxed. Apparently Prime corporation didn't reinvest into replacing the property, so this transaction should be taxed as a property sale. Prime received $400,000 for the building with a $350,000 basis which results in a net gain = $50,000.

The other $100,000 were given as replacement income and therefore should be taxed as such.

So the total taxable amount = $50,000 + $100,000 = $150,000

Suppose the number of firms you compete with has recently increased. You estimated that as a result of the increased competition

marysya [2.9K]

Answer and Explanation:

An increase in the number of firms increases the demand elasticity. As the demand elasticity increases from 2 to 3 it means you could encounter less demand if product prices are increased. At a demand elasticity of -3, it is regarded as inelastic demand and a change in price will not affect the demand for the product as customers are still likely to patronize the product example gasoline. Due to its high demand, an increase in price will not readily affect the demand for it. Therefore if you are to change the price from $10 at 2 to 3 demand elasticity increase, the percentage of increase from 2 to 3 is given as.

3-2/2 X 100 = 50%

The new charge (x) at -3 demand elasticity = 50%/3 = 0.66666666

The increase in the new charge is therefore $10 + $10x = $10 + $10(0.166666) = $11.67
