Answer: Variable ... Fixed
Explanation:
In the short run, Variable Inputs or costs are known as those which can be changed and their quantities can be varied. In this scenario, the employees that Cho's uses can be varied and so are the Variable Inputs.
Similarly, those costs that cann ot be changed or varied in the short run are rightly known as Fixed Inputs. Cho's Kitchen cannot take more than 3 ovens and also she has already signed a lease for them. These costs cannot be changed and so make the oven a Fixed Input.
It is worthy of note that in the long term, all Costs are considered Variable.
Ending merchandise = beginning Merchandise + net purchases- cost of goods sold
Cost of goods sold= beginning merchandise + purchases during the period- ending merchandise
Answer:
I. Thank employees for being willing to make a sacrifice for the good of the company.
II. State the facts of the company's financial situation.
III. Inform employees that they will receive a 15% pay cut.

The company should appraise employees that they understand the company's situation and are willing to accept the pay cut. The director should inform employees about the current financial situation and provide details about the pay cut plan. The email should close with a forward looking statement and a statement that as soon as the situation of company gets better the employees will receive full salaries as always.

Answer:
a) $3
b) $2
c) 1449
Explanation:
Given:
The cost for a carton of milk = $3
Selling price for a carton of milk = $5
Salvage value = $0 [since When the milk expires, it is thrown out ]3
Mean of historical monthly demand = 1,500
Standard deviation = 200
Now,
a) cost of overstocking = Cost for a carton of milk - Salvage value
= $3 - $0
= $3
cost of under-stocking = Selling price - cost for a carton of milk
= $5 - $3
= $2
b) critical ratio = 
or
critical ratio = 
or
critical ratio = 0.4
c) optimal quantity of milk cartons = Mean + ( z × standard deviation )
here, z is the z-score for the critical ration of 0.4
we know
z-score(0.4) = -0.253
thus,
optimal quantity of milk cartons = 1,500 + ( -0.253 × 200 )
= 1500 - 50.6
= 1449.4 ≈ 1449 units
