Answer:
The answer is: C) The minimum price sellers are willing to accept to sell an extra unit of a good.
Explanation:
A normal supply curve should move upward from left to right. The expresses the Law of Supply: (given that all other factors remain without change) As the price of a product increases, the quantity supplied should also increase.
For example:
An ounce of gold costs right now $1,500 and 100 ounces of gold are being traded right now at that price. If a new buyer comes in and wants to buy the 101th ounce of gold, then following a normal supply curve, the new buyer would need to pay more for that extra ounce of gold, maybe $1,510.
What the supply curve shows us is that given a certain price Y, a company will be willing to sell X amount of goods. The more demand a product has (X + 1) > X, then the price Y will increase until a new balance is found.
Answer:
$3,412
Explanation:
The computation of the economic order quantity is shown below:
=
=
= 2,954 units
The carrying cost is
= $15.40 × 15%
= $2.31
The number of orders would be equal to
= Annual demand ÷ economic order quantity
= 120,000 ÷ 2,954 units
= 40.62 orders
Now The total cost of ordering cost is
Ordering cost = Number of orders × ordering cost per order
= 40.62 orders × $

Explanation:
Westfall Industries
Statement of cash flows (extract)
Net income $81,000
Add Loss on the sale of land 4,000
Depreciation expense 8,000
Decrease in current asset 2,000
Increase in current liabilities 4,000
Cash flows from operating activities $99,000

= ($130,500 ÷ $1,740,000) × 100
= 7.5%
We simply divide net income by net sales in order to achieve the gross profit margin. This indicates a correlation between net income or net income and net sales.
