Answer:
To identify and correct errors
Explanation:
Answer:
a) 3X + 2Y = 36
b) X = 6 , Y = 9
c) 27
Explanation:
Individual consumes : X and Y
Spends : $36 per time period
unit cost : $3 per unit for X
$2 per unit for Y
utility function : U( X, Y ) = .5XY
<u>A) Budget equation mathematically</u>
X* Px + Y* Py = M
3X + 2Y = 36
Px and Py = unit cost for X and Y
M = Total spent ( revenue )
<u>b) Values of X and Y that will maximize utility </u>
Maximum utility ( MRS ) = Px / Py ,
MRS = MUx / MUy
= Y/X = 3/2
∴ 2Y = 3X
From BC : 6X = 36 ( X = 6 plug into mathematically equation above )
∴ X = 6 , hence Y = 9
<u>c) Total utility generated per unit of time </u>
U( X,Y ) = .5XY
= 0.5 * 6 * 9 = 27
Answer:
Willingness to pay
Revenue
Two
Elastic
Inelastic
Explanation:
Price discrimination is when a producer or a seller charges different prices for the same product usually in different markets.
In price discrimination, a seller attempts to remove or reduce consumer surplus by charging the consumer at his willingness to pay. For price discrimination to be effective, a seller must be able to estimate the willingness to pay of consumers.
Price discrimination is successful when a seller earns higher profits when she discriminates compared to when she didn't price discriminate.
Price discrimination exists in the airline industry. One of the ways price discrimination exists in the airline industry is through charging to check bags. Customers ( people who board airplanes) are distributed into two groups- those who won't pay to check bags and those who would pay to check bags.
It is assumed that those who would pay to check their bags have a price inelastic demand because they are indifferent to paying an extra amount for their luggage.
Inelastic demand is defined as when a small change in price has no effect on quantity demanded.
While it is assumed that those who won't pay to check their bags have an elastic demand because they are unwilling to pay extra to check their luggages.
Elastic demand is when a change in price has effect on quantity demanded.
Answer:
<u>Overhead Report for heavy-duty trailer axles.</u>
Order size ($ 16.85 × 200) $3,370.00
Customer orders ($ 320.00 × 1) $320.00
Product testing ($ 89.00 × 4) $356.00
Selling ( $ 1,090.00 × 2) $2,180.00
Total $6,226.00
Conclusion :
The total overhead cost assigned to the order is $6,226.00
Explanation:
ABC system allocates overheads to jobs using cost drivers.
First an Activity Center where costs accumulate is identified these can be several in our scenario we have four Activity Centers.
Then the Cost driver rate is calculated for each Activity Center. Our question has provided these.
The final step is to allocate the overheads to a particular job using the cost driver rate.
Answer:
d. $6,120 U
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the materials price variance for the month
Using this formula
Materials price variance = (AQ × AP) – (AQ × SP)
Let plug in the formula
Materials price variance = $138,600 – (7,200 meters × $18.40 per meter)
Materials price variance = $138,600 – $132,480
Materials price variance = $6,120 U
Therefore Materials price variance is $6,120 U
