You manage inventory as per the Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) model. However, you realize that you incorrectly specified the fix

ed cost of ordering. In specific, you underestimated the fixed cost of ordering by a factor of 2, i.e., fixed cost of ordering is actually twice of what you used in your model. Compared to the EOQ quantity obtained with the incorrect ordering cost, your true optimal EOQ quantity: __________
a. increases, but by a factor less than 2
b. decreases
c. remains unchanged

Answer:

a. increases, but by a factor less than 2

Explanation:

The formula to compute the economic order quantity is shown below"

EOQ = \frac{2\times D \times O}{H}

where

D  Denotes Annual demand

O denotes Ordering cost

H denotes holding cost

In the case when the fixed ordering cost is doubled so the economic order quantity will rise but by a factor i.e. less than 2

Edie Manson worked the following schedule: Monday, 8 hours; Tuesday, 9 hours; Wednesday, 7 hours 48 minutes; Thursday, 8 hours;
melomori [17]

Answer:

hundredth = 40.48 which is 40.8

Quarter = 40.48 which is 40.75

Explanation:

The total number of hours worked in all days of the week for Manson is 40 hours 48 minutes.

In hudredth time the conversion of 40.48 equals 40.8 but in quarter time to round time to nearest quarter hour, we have to round the times within 7 minutes of a 15 minute mark to that 15 minutes.  Since 48 minutes are only 3 minutes more than 45 minutes, we round back to 45 minutes which is 0.75 in decimal.

Hence the hundredth hour timing is preferred for Edie Manson because it shows a higher time for hours worked and potentially more pay.

balu736 [363]

Answer:

a. $3.13 per unit

b. No

c Yes

Explanation:

The computation is shown below

a. Fixed overhead per unit is

= Fixed overhead ÷ Number of units manufactured

= $363,000 ÷ 116,000 units

= $3.13 per unit      

b. The cost calculation is not appropriate because the fixed overhead per unit is not be involved while calculating the cost

c. Now the acceptance of the offer should be based on total relevant cost which is            

Total relevant cost

= $6.1 + $6.1 + $8.1

= $20.3  

Since the offer is accepted because total relevant cost is less than the offered purchase price i.e $24.50

Gabriele Enterprises has bonds on the market making annual payments, with eight years to maturity, a par value of $1,000, and se
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

Coupon rate = 5.8%

Explanation:

The price of a bond is the present value (PV)  of the future cash flows discounted at its yield.

So we will need to work back to ascertain the coupon rate

Step 1

<em>Calculate the PV of redemption value and PV of interest payments</em>

<em>PV of Redemption </em>

= 1.067^(-5) × 1000

=723.06

<em>PV of the annual interest rate</em>

= price of the bond - PV of redemption

= $964- 723.06

= 240.934

Step 2

<em>Calculate the interest payment</em>

Interest payment = PV of redemption value / annuity factor

Annuity factor =( 1 -(1+r)^(-n) )/r

<em>Annuity factor at 6.7% for 5 years</em>

Factor =( 1-1.067^(-5) )/0.067

          = 4.1333

Interest payment =  <em>PV of the annual interest rate</em> / Annuity factor

Interest payment=

=240.93/4.1333

=58.290

Step 3

<em>Calculate the coupon rate</em>

Coupon rate = interest payment/ par value

Coupon rate = (58.290/1000) × 100

= 5.8%

Coupon rate = 5.8%
