Answer:
They should operate Mine 1 for 1 hour and Mine 2 for 3 hours to meet the contractual obligations and minimize cost.
Explanation:
The formulation of the linear programming is:
Objective function:
Restrictions:
- High-grade ore: 
- Medium-grade ore: 
- Low-grade ore: 
- No negative hours: 
We start graphing the restrictions in a M1-M2 plane.
In the figure attached, we have the feasible region, where all the restrictions are validated, and the four points of intersection of 2 restrictions.
In one of this four points lies the minimum cost.
Graphically, we can graph the cost function over this feasible region, with different cost levels. When the line cost intersects one of the four points with the lowest level of cost, this is the optimum combination.
(NOTE: it is best to start with a low guessing of the cost and going up until it reaches one point in the feasible region).
The solution is for the point (M1=1, M2=3), with a cost of C=$680.
The cost function graph is attached.
Answer:
First we need to first find the equilibrium quantity and price during normal times.
The equilibrium price in normal times is P=$3 and the equilibrium quantity is 55 bottles.
During the hurricane, the government will set a price ceiling of $3. We can infer from the table that the quantity supplied at P=$3 is 55 bottles while the quantity demanded during hurricane at the price of $3 per bottle is 105 bottles. Hence,
105-55= 50
During a hurricane, there would be a shortage of 50 bottles of water.
If there were no price ceiling, then the equilibrium price would be such that the quantity demanded during hurricane equals the quantity supplied. From the table we can see that the equilibrium price would in that case be P=$5 per bottle where the equilibrium quantity is 85 bottles. With the price ceiling only 55 bottles are available for trading. Now without the price ceiling 85 bottles are available.
Hence consumers would have to pay an additional $2 (=5-3) but they can now buy an additional 30 bottles [=85-55].
Without the antiprice gouging law, consumers would have to pay $2 more than the ceiling price, but they would bv able to buy 30 more bottles of water.
Answer:
(C) $94.00
Explanation:
The computation of the cost of goods sold for the sale of May 20 is shown below:
= Remaining units × cost price + remaining units × cost price
= 4 units × $15 + 2 units × $17
= $60 + $34
= $94
The 4 units come from May 1 and May 10 i.e 9 units - 5 units = 4 units
And on May 20, the 6 units were sold out of which 4 units were sold at price of $15 and rest 2 units were sold at a price of $17
Options:
A. Public prosecutor
B. Government Accountant
C. Internal auditor
D. Public accountant
Answer: C. Internal Auditor.
Explanation: An Auditor is a professional whose main responsibility is to evaluate processes or systems in order to determine and expose areas where losses or failures are taking place in order to mitigate or correct these losses and failures. There are two types of Auditors, which includes INTERNAL AUDITOR (An Auditor employed by a firm to continuously audit its processes,accounts or system) and EXTERNAL AUDITOR(An Auditor contracted from external bodies in order to audit a firm).
Answer:
1- c. Process.
2- d. Consistency.
Explanation:
A personal brand can be defined as a continuous process of using marketing efforts and developing different factors to increase the perception and reputation of a company, individual, group, institution, etc.
Personal brand management corresponds to a continuous process of action and positioning, so that the target audience that you want to reach through your brand, can get to know you, including the values and the solution of the problems and benefits you have to offer.
This is a process that demands consistency of actions and posture, since the process of consolidating a personal brand is a continuous process that requires a lot of research, knowledge and analysis of trends and market, advertising, presence in the media most used by the public, demonstration of seriousness, quality, benefits, quick response to problems, and several other factors that gradually contribute so that through a consistent process the brand has value and is consolidated in the market.
