Answer:

B) For the 11th worker, the value of the marginal product of labor is $4,000.

Explanation:

The marginal product of labor (MPL) of a company is the total change in output achieved by hiring an additional worker. To calculate the MPL we have to multiply the change in output (measured in units) times the revenue generated by every extra unit of output.

In this case, the MPL = 2 surfboards x $2,000 per surfboard = $4,000

The Most recent financial statements for Moose Tours, Inc., appear below. Sales for 2016 are projected to grow by 20 percent. In
Aneli [31]

Answer:

$5,006.07

Explanation:

The external financing needed = Projected Increase in Assets - Increase in Liabilities - Increase in Retained Earnings

Projected Increase in Asset = Assets Value*Sales Growth Rate

Projected Increase in Assets = $364,720 * 20%

Projected Increase in Assets = $72,944

Increase in Liabilities = Liabilities * Sales Growth Rate

Increase in Liabilities = $69,600 * 20%

Increase in Liabilities = $13,920

<em>To calculate the Increase in Retained Earning, the below calculations are needed:</em>

a. Profit Margin Rate = Net Income / Sales * 100

Profit Margin Rate = 75,000 / 751,000 * 100

Profit Margin Rate = 9.99%

b. Dividend Payout Ratio = Dividend / Net Income * 100

Dividend Payout Ratio = 30,000 / 75,000 * 100

Dividend Payout Ratio = 0.4

Dividend Payout Ratio = 40%

Retention Rate = 1 - Dividend Payout Ratio

Retention Rate = 1 - 0.40

Retention Rate = 0.60

Retention Rate = 60%

c. Expected Sales = $751,000 * 1.20 = $901,200

So, the Increase in Retained Earning = Expected Sales * Profit Margin * Retention Rate = $901,200 *9.99% * 60% = $54,017.93

Therefore, External Fund Needed = $72,944 - $13,920 - $54,017.93 = $5,006.07

You are the newly assigned project manager to a major IT upgrade project in your global company. How will you determine the risk
kap26 [50]

Answer:

I have to identify the risk factors in the project and then gauge the willingness of the company to take such risks.

Explanation:

Risk tolerance is the willingness of an organization or an individual to take certain risks. The risk tolerance level of a person or organization can be classified as either high or low. For a project manager who wants to determine the risk tolerances associated with his project, he has to first identify the risk factors, and then try to know the risk level and if indeed this level is acceptable within the organization's culture and standard.

The project manager would do well to plot a graph that would show the probability of a risky action happening or not. A risk tolerance line is now obtained from where the project manager can know if that risk is tolerable by organization standards. The extent of job security would also help in determining the amount of risk a manager can take. However, they are still expected to stay within the standards of the organization.

A company is considering two designs for a machine in its manufacturing line. The first, called machine A, will cost $160000 in
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

The indifference point is 1,410 units

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Machine A:

Fixed costs= $160,000

Unitary variable cost= $80

Machine B:

Fixed costs= $270,000

Unitary variable cost= $2

<u>First, we need to structure the total cost formula for each machine:</u>

Machine A= 160,000 + 80x

Machine B= 270,000 + 2x

x= number of units

<u>Now, we equal both formulas and isolate x:</u>

160,000 + 80x = 270,000 + 2x

78x = 110,000

x= 110,000/78

x= 1,410 units

The indifference point is 1,410 units
