Answer:

Sell before assembly, the company will be better off by $3 per unit

Explanation:

the aim of a firm is to maximise profit. The decision the firm would make would be based on the decision that yields the higher profit

Profit = revenue - cost

Profit that would be earned from selling the unassembled unit = $52 - $24 = $28

Profit that would be earned from selling the assembled unit = $64 - ($15 + $24) = 25

The profit from selling the unassembled product is greater than the profit from selling the assembled product by $3. The firm would prefer to sell the unassembled unit

Mr. and Mrs. Garcia have a total of $100,000 to be invested in stocks, bonds, and a money market account. The stocks have a rate
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let y amount be invested in bonds

Let x amount be invested in money account

Let x amount be invested in stocks

x = y + 3x

10,000 = 12/100(y+3x) + 8/100*y + 4/100*x

10,000 = 12(y+3x) + 8y + 4x / 100

10,000 * 100 = 12y+36x + 8y + 4x

2500 * 100 = 3y + 9x + 2y + x

250,000 = 5y + 10x

50,000 = y + 2x.......................(1)

x + y + z = $100,000

y + 3x + y + x = $100,000

2y + 4x = 100,000

y + 2x = 50,000.......................(ii)

y = 50,000 - 2x

x = 50,000 + x

z = z

<u>2 Options are</u>

{(x,y,x), (x2,y2,z2)}

= (50000, 50000) (60000, 30000, 10000)
