Answer:

Option D. We are 95% confident that the mean amount spent on electric service among the 160 households is between $151 and $216.

Explanation:

A confidence interval is a range of values, derived from the sample statistics, which may include the value of an unknown population parameter.

A 95% confidence interval indicates that between 152 of 160 samples (95%) of the same population will produce confidence intervals that will contain the population parameter.

It also means that we have a 95% confidence that the average (average amount) is among the resulting amounts obtained.

Logically, option "D" is missing the final part. This would be: D. We are 95% confident that the mean amount spent on electric service among the 160 households is between $ 15.

This is the only true option, since the test is based on a sample of only 160 households, the entire population of households cannot be included.

Hence, the correct option is:

Option D. We are 95% confident that the mean amount spent on electric service among the 160 households is between $151 and $216.

nignag [31]

Answer:

The total monthly fixed cost and the variable cost per hour is $1,540 and $23

The average contribution margin per hour is $27

Explanation:

The computation of the fixed cost and the variable cost per hour by using high low method is shown below:

Variable cost per hour = (High Operating cost - low operating cost) ÷ (High service hours - low service hours)

= ($11,200 - $4,300) ÷ (420 hours - 120 hours)

= $6,900 ÷ 300 hours

= $23

Now the fixed cost equal to

= High operating cost - (High service hours × Variable cost per hour)

= $11,200 - (420 hours × $23)

= $11,200 - $9,660

= $1,540

For computing the contribution margin per hour, first we have to compute the revenue per hour which is shown below:

= Revenue ÷ service hours

= $6,000 ÷ 120 hours

= $50

We know that,

The contribution per hour = Revenue per hour - variable cost per hour

                                           = $50 - $23

                                           = $27

ss7ja [257]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "E": To a large extent, the decision to dissolve a firm through liquidation versus keeping it alive through reorganization depends on a determination of the value of the firm if it is rehabilitated versus the value of its assets if they are sold off individually.

Explanation:

Liquidation refers to the termination of an enterprise and the transfer of its properties to the creditor or business owners. The liquidation most frequently happens in the context of a bankruptcy. A bankruptcy trustee must sell the company properties to the creditors and split the proceeds.

<em>The decision of keeping a business against liquidating it will depend on the comparison between the value of continuing operating which relies on the current value the firm has in the market against the value of the individual assets the firm has. Whichever greater will determine if the business will remain open or if it will be closed.</em>
