Answer:

The correct answer is "12,500 units" and "$100 per unit".

Explanation:

Given:

Selling price,

= $10 per unit

Variable cost per unit,

= $6 per unit

Fixed cost,

= 30,000

Desired profit,

= 20,000

Now,

The contribution margin per unit will be:

= Selling \ price - Variable \ cost

= 10-6

= 4 ($) per unit

The required units will be:

= \frac{(Fixed \ cost+Desired \ profit)}{Contribution \ margin}

= \frac{30000+20000}{4}

= \frac{50000}{4}

= 12,500 \ units

Now,

The contribution margin per composite unit will be:

= Selling \ price-Variable \ cost

= 150-50

= 100 ($) per unit

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

a. The company must have had net income equal to zero in 2009.

Explanation:

If on its 2008 balance sheet, Sherman Books showed a balance of retained earnings equal to $510 million, and on its 2009 balance sheet, the balance of retained earnings was also equal to $510 million; then what is true is that  the company must have had net income equal to zero in 2009.

Retained earnings is the profit amount or net income left over and taken back into the business after it has paid out dividends to its shareholders.

However it is unlikely that the company will pay out the entire amount it earns in a particular year but a percentage of earnings.

In the case of Sherman, it is unlikely that the company made a profit of $200 million and paid out every bit as dividends to shareholders but what is most likely is that there was no profit made for retention in 2009

If interest rates in general were to fall, 1. the prices of existing bonds would rise 2. the prices of existing bonds would fall
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

1. the prices of existing bonds would rise

Explanation:

General Interest rates and price of a bond are inversely related. The market interest rate also reflects an investors expected rate of return also referred to as yield to maturity i.e YTM.

Mathematically, price of a bond is the present value of it's future stream of coupon payments as well as principal repayments discounted at investors expected rate of return i.e YTM.

So, when market interest rates fall in general, this would lead to a rise in the price of bonds as general interest rates represent yield to maturity.

The bank is working to develop an efficient work schedule for full-time and part-time tellers. The schedule must provide for eff
Kitty [74]

Answer:

The solution is given below.

Explanation:

It is a practical, complex scheduling problem that can be easily modelled and solved as IP. Note that  part time and full time employees are paid at different rates. So, it is important that the bank operates to provide required service level (indicated by the number of tellers per hour) while  minimizing total cost due to staff salary.

We use x as full time and y as part time staff.

It would help if you construct a table as shown below to better analyze the problem before  attempting to model it. Red shows work hrs of full time staff and green is for part timers. Just follow  their work hour rules.

So, full timers have 3 options:  

(i) start at 9 – work till 1pm, take 1 hr break, then work 2 – 5 pm

(ii) start at 10 – work till 2pm, take 1 hr break, then work 3 – 6 pm

(iii) start at 11 – work till 3pm, take 1 hr break, then work 4 – 7 pm

that’s all… bank closes at 7 pm.

However, part timers don’t have 1 hr break. They work straight 4 hrs and leave. See green cells  above to understand their alternatives.

Now, decision variables should include this work hour information. Here goes their definition. You  must clearly define decision variables in exam, otherwise, the model is meaningless.

X9 = number of full time staff who start at 9 and follow the hour-related rule (no need to specify  more details; those are already undestood)

X10 = number of full time staff who start at 10 and follow the hour-related rule

X11 = number of full time staff who start at 11 and follow the hour-related rule

Y9 = number of part time staff who start at 9 and follow the hour-related rule

Y10 = number of part time staff who start at 10 and follow the hour-related rule

…. This way you define up to Y15.

You must also specify that:

Xi, Yi >=0, integers.

Objective Function:

Minimize Z = 105*(x9 + x10 + x11) + 32* (y9 + y10 + … + y 15)

You will need one “covering” constraint for each working hour. Both full and part-timers can “cover”  the duty of each hour. Look at the color-coded table (above) column-wise. The 9:00-10:00 hour can  be covered only by x9 and y9 staff; next hour by x9, x10, y9, y10 only,… and so on. So, the

constraints are: (attached with image)
