increased workload, so the company is considering three alternatives, A (new location), B (subcontract), and C (expand existing facilities). Alternative A would involve substantial fixed costs but relatively low variable costs: fixed costs would be $270,000 per year, and variable costs would be $600 per boat. Subcontracting would involve a cost per boat of $2,620, and expansion would require an annual fixed cost of $57,000 and a variable cost of $1,030 per boat.
A. Find the range of output for each alternative that would yield the lowest totalcost.
A. 315,550 or more.
B. 2,550 or 306,000.
C. 57,050 or 182,000.

Answer:

A. Lowest Total Cost:

A. 315,550 or more

B. Lowest total cost of annual volume of 120 boats

C. C

Explanation:

The lowest total cost among the three alternatives is b.

If the company goes for new location it will have to incur fixed cost of $270,000 and variable cost per boat will be $600.

If the company Subcontracts then Total cost per boat is $2,620

If a company goes for expanding existing facility then it will incur fixed cost of $57,000 and variable cost will be $1,030 per boat.

If company produces 315,000 or more boats then it will have lowest possible cost for the boat.

For an output of 120 bots the best possible alternative is option C. The fixed cost will be $475 per boat ($57,000 / 120 boats)

The total cost will be $1,505 ($475 + $1,030)

Explanation:

Here are the options to this question :

What is likely to happen to the equilibrium wage and quantity of radiologists following these twoevents?

A) The equilibrium wage and the equilibrium quantity of radiologists fall.

B) The equilibrium quantity falls and the effect on the equilibrium wage of radiologists is indeterminate.

C) The equilibrium wage falls and the effect on equilibrium quantity of radiologists isindeterminate.D

) The equilibrium wage and the equilibrium quantity of radiologists rise

As a result of event A, there would be a decrease in the demand for radiologists. As a result, there  would be a leftward shift of the demand curve for radiologist. This would lead to a reduction in equilibrium price and quantity

As a result of event B, there would be a decrease in the supply radiologists. As a result, there  would be a leftward shift of the supply curve of radiologist. This would lead to a reduction in equilibrium quantity and a rise in equilibrium price.

Taking these two effects together, the equilibrium quantity falls and the effect on the equilibrium wage of radiologists is indeterminate.

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

The 9,300 should Allegheny report as Uncollectible Accounts Expense on its Year 2 income statement

Explanation:

The non-collectible accounts expenses on its Year 2 income statement is shown below:

= Ending balance + write off balance - opening balance

= $6,000 + $7,200 - $3,900

=$9,300

The accounts receivable is not to be considered because we have to find out the uncollectible accounts expense, so the account receivable balance should not be taken in the computation part.

Hence, the 9,300 should Allegheny report as Uncollectible Accounts Expense on its Year 2 income statement
