Why would a business replace human capital with physical captain

Business
1 answer:
BigorU [14]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

A business would replace human capital with physical capital to achieve economies of scale.

Explanation:

Economies of scale are cost advantages obtain when there is an increase in the output of the operation. As production rises there is more efficient to use robots or machinery than humans to produce any given product.  The use of this machinery will need a big investment but in the long run the costs of production will decrease and there is easier to manage machines than humans.

A company had an unadjusted Cost of Goods Sold of $1,690,000. The company closes its underapplied or overapplied overhead to Cos
lakkis [162]

Answer:

"$1,673,750" is the appropriate answer.

Explanation:

The given values in the question are:

Applied overhead,

= $666,250

Actual overhead,

= $650,000

Unadjusted cost,

= $1,690,000

Now,

The overapplied overhead will be:

= Applied \ overhead-Actual \ overhead

= 666,250-650,000

= 16,250 ($)

hence,

The goods sold's adjusted cost will be:

= Unadjusted \ cost-Overapplied \ overhead

= 1,690,000-16,250

= 1,673,750 ($)

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

correct option is B. -$4.02

Explanation:

given data

delivery price = $40

current stock price = $35

fixed dividend yield = 8% = 0.08

risk free rate = 12% = 0.12

solution

as we know that forward contract is a agreement that is made between 2 parties ( seller or buyer ) asset in future at today fix price in specified time,

we get here long forward contract value that is express as

long forward contract = \frac{stock\ price}{(1+dividend\ rate)^t} -\frac{forward\ rate}{e^{r*t}}    ...................1

put here value we get

long forward contract = \frac{35}{(1+0.08)^{6/12}} -\frac{40}{e^{0.12*6/12}}  

solve it we get

long forward contract = -$4.02

so correct option is B. -$4.02

If the government sets a price floor of $5 per bushel, ____ bushels of corn are produced, of which ___ are purchased by consumer
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer: If the government sets a price floor of $5 per bushel, Say 1000 bushels of corn are produced, of which 300 bushels are purchased by consumers, and 700 bushels by the government. The program costs the government $3500. Farmers receive $5000 in total revenue.

Explanation: A price floor is a legitimate minimum value that the government sets on a product in the market, usually to protect the suppliers/farmers. Using the ballpark values as in the answer, to estimate and explain the concept of a price floor:  

Say total quantity produced is 1000 bushels of corn from which the Market demands 300 bushels. Given that the government has set a price floor at $5 per bushel; then the Government has to buy the surplus bushels of corn in the market from the farmers.  

Surplus bushels = Quantity produced – Quantity purchased  

1000 bushels – 300 bushels = 700 surplus bushels of corn to be purchased at $5 each by the government

Therefore: It would cost the government (700 bushels x $5 =) $3,500 to mop up the surplus in the market and pay the farmers. The 300 bushels purchased by consumers would yield (300 x $5 =) $1,500 in earnings for the farmers. Total earning by the farmers = $3500 (from the government) and $1500 from consumers) = $5000.

I hope this helps to understand the concept of price floors.
