Stories Company purchased equipment and these costs were incurred:Cash price $22,500Sales taxes 1,800Insurance during transit 32

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

d. $25,050.

Explanation:

The computation of the acquisition cost is shown below:

= Cash price of equipment + sales tax + Insurance during transit + Installation and testing

= $22,500 + $1,800 + $320 + $430

= $25,050

To find out the acquisition cost, we have to consider all that cost which is related to the purchase of equipment. Since, all the costs are related, so we have to take all costs which are mentioned in the question.

Explanation:

Monetary base is a concept in money supply that measures highly liquid assets in an economy.

It includes all cash that is in circulation in the economy and those deposits that are held as reserves by the central bank from commercial banks. Cash in bank vaults are also included because they are readily available to the economy.

For example if there is $200 million in circulation and there is $13 billion in the central bank as reserves from commercial banks, the total monetary base is $13.2 billion

Suppose our firm produces chartered business flights with capital (planes) and labor (pilots) in fixed proportion (i.e. one pilo

qaws [65]

Answer:

C. optimal capital labor ratio remains the same

Explanation:

One pilot for each plane implies A = B

Let cost be C

So, isocost line is xA + rB = C

So, xA + yA = C (as L = K)

So, (x+y)A = C

So, A = C/(x+y) =B

Optimal capital labor ratio = B/A = 1 as B =A

Now, wage rate increases to x'

So, isocost line is x'A + yB = C

So, x'A + yA = C (as A = B)

So, (x'+y)A = C

So, A = C/(x'+y) = B

New optimal capital labor ratio =B/A = 1 as B = A

Thus, optimal capital labor ratio remains same because capital (planes) and labor (pilots) are used in fixed proportion.

Thus the answer is

C. optimal capital labor ratio remains the same

It is also often used when handling time sensitive and perishable inventory. Due to the reduced shelf life, inventory needs to reach retailers with a reasonable remaining shelf life
