Answer:
The most likely factor that this department store company would have considered in discontinuing its credit card operations is the issue of bad debt.
Bad debt may likely have prevented them from making the required profit to cater for the needs of the company such as payment of salaries and purchase of goods which if not treated may lead to the collapse of the company.
Answer:
$480
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Machine Hours Repair Costs
2,400 $6,385
1,200 $3,480
2,000 $5,285
3,400 $8,980
Now,
Machine Hours Repair Costs
Highest 3,400 $8,980
Lowest 1,200 $3,480
Difference 2,200 $5,500
Unit variable cost = $5,500 ÷ 2,200
= $2.5
Total cost at high level = $8,980
Machine hours highest level = 3,400
Also,
Total cost at high level = Fixed cost + Variable cost at highest level
or
$8,980 = Fixed cost + [ $2.5 × 3,400 ]
or
Fixed cost = $8,980 - [ $2.5 × 3,400 ]
= $8,980 - $8,500
= $480

Explanation:
Answer:
maximum income is $900
Explanation:
given data
oil change = $20
per day = 40 customer
increase = $ 2
dailer customers = 2
owner charge = $ 2
to find out
income from the business
solution
we know current income is 40 × 20
current income = $800
we consider here price increase x and income as function y
so y = (20 +2x) × ( 40 - 2x) ........1
y = −4x² + 40x + 800
take derivative and put dy/dx = 0 for maximum
dy/dx = -8x + 40
0 = -8x + 40
x=5
so here from 1
y = (20 +2x) × ( 40 - 2x)
y = (20 +2(5)) × ( 40 - 2(5))
y = 30 × 30
y = 900
so maximum income is $900
Answer:
The correct answer is (d)
Explanation:
Better quality can help to reduce many costs such as customer’s dissatisfaction cost, inspection cost and warrant and service cost. When customers don't like the quality of the product they are likely to buy the same product from somewhere else that is the dissatisfaction cost. Still, maintenance cost is likely to incur no matter how good the quality is. Maintenance cost helps to keep the product clean and fresh for long-term use.
