The next guesses of the clerk should be less of red shells and more of white shells.
<h3><u>Decision about less of white and more red shells</u>:</h3>
Given that,
    Red shell [r] costs         =        $0.75 each.
    White shell [w] costs     =        $0.49 each.
    Total of 8 shells              =       $4.70
The clerk guesses that the $4.96 for 4 red shells and 4 white shells is greater than the actual purchase. 
Therefore,
The clerk should make use of less red shells, and more of white shells, because the unit costs of red shell is more than the white shell.

Answer:
 $15 per backpack
Explanation:
The  average variable cost per of producing a backpack by using the high low method is shown below:
Variable cost per backpack = (High total cost - low total cost) ÷ (High backpack produced - low backpack produced )
= ($110,000- $87,500) ÷ (4,000 backpack produced   - 2,500 backpack produced  )
= $22,500 ÷ 1,500 backpack produced  
= $15 per backpack

Answer:
$12.49 
Explanation:
The computation of the expected current price is shown below:
But before that first we have to determine the current firm value which is 
Current firm value = ($86 million ×1.10^1) ÷ 1.11^1 + ($86 million × 1.10^2) ÷ 1.11^2 + {($86 million × 1.10^2 × 1.04) ÷ (0.11 - 0.04)} ÷ 1.11^2
= $1,424.48 million
Now
Expected current share price is
= ($1,424.48 - $275 million + $100 million) ÷ 100 million shares outstanding 
= $12.49
