A clothier makes coats and slacks. The two resources required are wool cloth and labor. The clothier has 150 square yards of woo

l and 200 hours of labor available. Each coat requires 3 square yards of wool and 10 hours of labor. Each pair of slacks requires 5 square yards of wool and 4 hours of labor. The profit for a coat is $50, and the profit for slacks is $40. The clothier wants to determine the number of coats and pairs of slacks to make so that profit will be maximized.

Answer:

a. Give the Objective function.

Let c = #coats to be produced

Let s = #slacks to be produced

b. Give the constraints

3c+5s≤150

10c+4s≤200

d. Give the optimal Point

The profit function would be P(x,y)=50c+40s

Explanation:

Let c = #coats to be produced

Let s = #slacks to be produced

Our first constraint deals with square yards of wool. We cannot exceed 150 square yards. Using the fact that coats require 3 sq yds and slacks require 5 sq yds, we can identify this constraint.

3c+5s≤150

Our second constraint deals with the number of hours available being 200. Coats require 10 hrs and slacks require 4 hrs. Now we have our second constraint.

10c+4s≤200

We might also assume that some of each will be produced, so we can list the following as constraints as well.

c>0 and s>0

The profit function would be P(x,y)=50c+40s

Elodia [21]

Answer:

Murphy Company

The year in which Murphy recognizes the income is year 2.

Explanation:

As a cash basis taxpayer, Murphy Company reports income and deductions in the year that they are actually paid or received.  Similarly, as a cash basis taxpayer, Murphy Company deducts expenses in the year the expenses are paid off, which is not necessarily the year they were incurred.  The income for services of $9,000 rendered to a customer, for which payment was received on January 3, year 2, will be recognized in year 2 and not in year 1 when the services were performed.

A firm's marginal cost curve Group of answer choices always has a positive slope. always intersects its average cost curve at it
yarga [219]

Answer:

The correct answer is the first option: Always has a positive slope.

Explanation:

To begin with, the <em>marginal cost curve</em> of a firm is the graphical representation the relationship between the last unit produce and the cost of producing it. Therefore that this concept shows how much it cost to the company to produce one more unit of the product. Moreover, due to the fact that the relationship between the production and its costs are directly, the slope of the curve will be always positive, meaning that if the production increases then obviously the costs will increase but the cost per unit might decrease due to the volumen handle by the organization.

Answer:The hazardous waste disposal cost per unit  for chair and table respectively is $2.83 and $1.54

Explanation:

From the question, If cost are assigned at a rate based on direct labor hours, then the  total disposal cost for chairs is

total disposal cost for chairs =Direct labor hours required for chairs/Total Direct labor hours required for both furniture x Hazardous waste disposal costs

268,000/ 268,000+16,400  x 615,000

= 268,000/ 284,400  x  615,000

===$595,535.865

and for tables for  is

total disposal cost for tables=Direct labor hours required for tables /Total Direct labor hours required for both furniture x Hazardous waste disposal costs

16,400 / 268,000+16,400  x  615,000

= 16,400 / 284,400  x 615,000

===$35,464.135

The hazardous waste disposal cost per unit  for chair and table respectively is

For chair ====total disposal cost for chairs/ Expected production of chairs

$595,535.865/210,000 units= $2.83

For table ====total disposal cost for table/ Expected production oftable

$35,464.135/23,000 units=$1.54
