Answer:

The price of tee times needs to be decreased by 6.67%.

Explanation:

The manager wants to increase the number of tee times sold by 10 percent.

The price elasticity of demand for tee times is –1.5.

Percentage change in price of tee times to increase the demand by 10%

Price elasticity of demand = \frac{\% \Delta Q}{\% \Delta P}

-1.5 = \frac{10 \%}{\% \Delta P}

\% \Delta P = \frac{10}{-1.5}\% \Delta P = -6.67 \%

Zolol [24]

Answer:

The most suitable answer here is D. Concurrent Control.

Explanation:

Concurrent control is also known as preventive controls and steering controls where the aim of the control procedure is to identify the possible flaws of a process and to prevent them before occurring.

Furthermore, in this scenario as you can see, Donald consults production manager and formulates measures as the process is ongoing. This makes it more of a "concurrent control" as well.

So Why did we not use any of the other options?

Option A, reactive controls is incorrect in this case, because reactive measures are completely spontaneous actions that respond to an accident.

Option B is incorrect too, because feedback controls are done after a process has been completed and through identification of falls happened.

Option C, feed forward controls are not correct in this scenario as well. Although it is a type of preventive control, in this scenario it is not entirely preventive. They are formulating measures even as the process is ongoing.

On July 9, Mifflin Company receives an $7,200, 90-day, 8% note from customer Payton Summers as payment on account. What entry sh
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Oct 6  Cash                             7344 Dr

                 Interest Revenue         144 Cr

                Notes Receivable         7200 Cr

         

Explanation:

First we calculate the day on which notes receivable is due.

We start from July 9 as being our first day and in July there are 31 days so 31 - 8 = 23

In August there are 31 days.

In September there are 30 days.

So total days till september are 22+31+30 = 84

So the note is due to be received on October 6.

The amount of interest due is 7200 * 0.08 * 90/360 = $144

The entry to be passed on Oct 6 is a debit to cash for the amount of principal and interest (7200+144) and a credit to interest revenue of 144 and notes receivable of 7200

Gundy Company expects to produce 1,200,000 units of Product XX in 2017. Monthly production is expected to range from 80,000 to 1
mariarad [96]

Answer:

\left[\begin{array}{ccccc}-&units \: cost&V80,000&V100,000&V120,000\\DM&5&400,000&500,000&600,000\\DL&6&480,000&600,000&720,000\\Overhead&8&640,000&800,000&960,000\\Total Variable&19&1,520,000&1,900,000&2,280,000\\Depreciation&200,000&200,000&200,000&200,000\\Supervision&100,000&100,000&100,000&100,000\\Total Fixed&300,000&300,000&300,000&300,000\\Total Overhead&&1,820,000&2,200,000&2,580,000\\\end{array}\right]

Explanation:

We multiply the variable cost by each volume of production

for example direct materials 5 x 80,000 = 400,000

                                              5 x 100,000 = 500,000

                                              5 x 120,000 = 600,000

<u>Then for the fixed cost:</u>

notice the company expect to produce 1,200,000 units.

If fixed depreciation is $2 per unit then

1,200,000 x $2 = 2,400,000 depreciation per year.

we then divide this value by 12 to get the monthly fixed depreciation

2,400,000/12 = 200,000

Same procedure goes for supervision

1,200,000 units x $1 per unit = 1,200,000 per year

1,200,000/12 = 100,000 per month

Finally we add both, fixed and variable to et total overhead for the relevant range.
