Answer:

Option B is correct.

Explanation:

In order to answer this question correctly, we first need to understand the law of demands.

Law of demands: It says that the relationship of price and quantity demanded is inversely proportional. It means if the price of a particular product goes high, then the quantity of demand will be reduced. Similarly, if the price of the product is low then the quantity of demanded will be higher.

Here,

Option B is the most relevant to the Law of Demand which says that Kathleen eats more steak when the price is low. It means when the price is low, the quantity of steak demanded is higher in Kathleen's case. Furthermore, Kathleen eats less when the price is high. It means, when the price of steak is higher then the quantity of steak demanded from Kathleen is low.

Hence, Option B is the correct option which fulfills the law of demand.

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

Given,

Annual demand, D = 12500,

Setting up cost, S = $ 49,

Production rate per year, P = production facility × capability of production = 300 × 105 = 31500,

Holding cost per year, H = $ 0.15,

Hence,

(i) Optimal size of the production run,

$Q = \sqrt{\frac{2DS}{H(1-\frac{D}{P})}}=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 12500\times 49}{0.15(1-\frac{12500}{31500})}}=3679.60238126\approx 3680$

(ii) Average holding cost per year,

$=\frac{QH}{2}(1-\frac{D}{P})$

$=\frac{3680\times 0.15}{2}(1-\frac{12500}{31500})$

$=166.476190476$

$\approx \$ 166.48$

(iii) Average setup cost per year,

$=\frac{D}{Q}\times S$

$=\frac{12500}{3680}\times 49$

$=166.44021739$

$\approx \$ 166.44$

(iv) Total cost per year = average setup cost per year + average holding cost per year + cost to purchase 12500 lights

= 166.44 + 166.48 + 12500(0.95)

= $ 12207.92

The overhead costs in a highly automated factory are expected to increase at an annual compound rate of 10 percent for the next

Rzqust [24]

Answer:

The annual worth of the overhead costs for 7 year-period is

A = $389743.42.

<em>Then the time value of the annual worth is discounted by 8%</em>

∴ $389743.42 x 0.08 = $31179.47.

Explanation:

Using the formula

A = P(1 + r/n) ${nt}$

Where:

A = ?

t = 7

P = $200,000.00

r = 10%

n= 1

TVM =8%

∴ A = $200,000.00(1 + 0.10/1) ${1 * 7}$

A = $200,000.00(1.10) ${7}$

A = $200,000.00(1.9487171)

A = $389743.42

<em>Then the time value of the annual worth is discounted by 8%</em>

∴ $389743.42 x 0.08 = $31179.47
