A pump has failed in a facility that will be completely replaced in 3 years. A brass pump costing $6000 installed will last 3 ye

ars. However, a used stainless steel pump that should last 3 more years has been sitting in the maintenance shop for a year. The pump cost $13,000 new. The accountants say the pump is worth $7000 now. The maintenance supervisor says that it will cost an extra $500 to reconfigure the pump for the new use and that he could sell it used ( as is) for $4000.

Answer: $7,000

Explanation:

The book value of the pump is the same as the value stated by the accountants.

The accountants are skilled in the field and most probably used accounting assessment techniques which were based on certain assumptions by accounting bodies so their valuation of the pump is to be considered the book value.

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

Follows are the instructions to this question:

Explanation:

Given:

Configuration of machine = \$16,000 \ \ \ \ 40  \ \ \ \ 25 \ \ \ \ 15

Machine hours= \$110,000  \ \ \ \ 5,000  \ \ \ \ 1,000 \ \ \ \  4,000

Order on Packing= \$30,000\ \ \ \  500 \ \ \ \ 150 \ \ \ \ 350

We have to use the following formula in order to measure the expected production overhead rate:

Estimated overhead production rate= Total projected production expenses and for period/Total base allocation sum

Machine Configuration =\frac{16,000}{(40+25+15)}= \frac{16,000}{80} =\$200 / \ setup

Machining hour= =\frac{110,000}{(5,000 + 1,000 + 4,000)} =\frac{110,000}{(10,000)}= \$11 / \  machine \ hour

Packing= \frac{30,000}{(500 + 150 + 350)}= \frac{30,000}{1000}= \$30/ \ order

The difference between the minimum price at which a producer is willing and able to sell a unit of a good or service and the pri
kap26 [50]

Answer:

Seller Surplus

Explanation:

In business terms, there is a difference in the expected value what a seller expects to receive from the products it sells and from the amount it actually earns.

The cost of the product not only involves the monetary cost but it also involves the cost in terms of efforts involved to produce an article.

When a seller puts a product in the market, then he tries to have it a market value more than its cost. When such market value is realised then the difference in cost and market value is surplus for the supplier or producer.

But in cases where the consumer is efficient enough to bargain such product and only pays an amount which is less than the cost, then there arises seller deficit, which is represented as a negative seller surplus.

If Sam's, a local watering hole, increased the price of a pint of Guinness by 20%, it estimates the number of MBA students purch
Leni [432]

Answer:

Total Revenues would increase because Demand is Inelastic

Explanation:

Demand is buyers ability & willingness to buy at a given price, time.

Elasticity of Demand is quantity demanded responsiveness to price change.

More Elastic Demand means quantity demanded responds highly to change in price. Percentage Change in Quantity Demanded > Percentage Change in Price. Elasticity of Demand [Δ%Q / Δ%P] >1 in this case. Price and Total Revenue (PxQ) are inversely related in this case ; i.e - price rise, TR fall & price fall, TR rise.

Less Elastic Demand means quantity demanded responds less to change in price. Percentage Change in Quantity Demanded < Percentage Change in Price. Elasticity of Demand [Δ%Q / Δ%P] < 1 in this case. Price and Total Revenue (PxQ) are positively related in this case ; i.e - price rise, TR rise & price fall, TR fall.

So: If Sam's Pint price change by 20% leads to demand fall by 4%, the demand is less elastic i.e < 1. Hence, Total Revenue will increase with increase in price.
