Answer:
55,060 machines
Explanation:
Projected sales = 54,500
Estimated opening balance = 6,860
Desired ending balance = 7,420
Budgeted production = ?
Let the budgeted production be B
Using the formula
Opening balance + Budgeted production - Sales = Closing balance
6,860 + B - 54,500 = 7,420
B = 7,420 + 54,500 - 6,860
B = 55,060
The budgeted production for the year is 55,060 machines.
Answer:
Explanation:
Annual demand (D) = 20000 units
Number of days per year = 250
Demand rate(d) = D/number of days per year = 20000/250 = 80 units
Production rate(p) = 655 units
Set up cost(S) = $1800
Holding cost (H) = $1.50
A) Optimum run size(Q) = sqrt of {2DS / H [1-(d/p)]}
= sqrt of {(2x20000x1800) /1.50[1-(80/655)]}
= Sqrt of [7200000/1.50(1-0.1221) ]
= sqrt of [72000000/(1.50 x 0.8779)]
= sqrt of (7200000/1.31685)
= Sqrt of 5467593.1199
= 2338 units
b) Maximum inventory ( I - max) = (Q/p) (p-d) = (2338/655)(655-80) = 3.5695 x 575 = 2052.46 or rounded off to 2052 units
Average inventory = I-max/2 = 2052/2 = 1026 units
C) Number of production setups per year = D/Q = 20000/2338 = 8.55 or rounded up to 6
d) optimal length of production run = optimal run size /production rate = 2338/655 = 3.56 or rounded up to 4 days
Answer:
consumer surplus will decrease.
Explanation:
Consumer surplus is defined as the difference between the price customers are willing to pay for a product and what they actually pay.
On the demand and supply curve it is indicated by the shaded area between equillibrum and demand curve as illustrated in the attached diagram.
For example let's assume the price a customer was willing to pay for a product was $50 and market price was $30
Initial consumer surplus= 50- 30= $20
Assume bmarket price increase to $40
The new consumer surplus is= 50- 40
Present consumer surplus= $10
So a price increase causes a decrease in the consumer surplus.

Answer:
sunk cost.
Explanation:
Sunk cost can be defined as a cost or an amount of money that has been spent on something in the past and as such cannot be recovered. Thus, because a sunk cost has been incurred by an individual or organization it can't be recovered and as such it is irrelevant in the decision-making process such as investments, projects etc.
Basically, sunk costs are referred to as fixed costs.
Sunk costs are the opposite of relevant costs because they can't be changed or recovered, as they've been spent or contracted in the past already. Hence, relevant cost are relevant for decision-making purposes but not sunk costs.
Hence, a cost incurred in the past that is not relevant to any current decision is classified as a sunk cost.
For example, ABC investors decide to acquire land and develop residential houses at a location X. This decision is informed on the fact that the government had recently enacted a policy that led to an increase in demand for residential properties in that location. 6 months into construction of the residential houses, the government reviews and rescinds the policy. This leads to a sharp decline in property values in location X. ABC investors had already incurred 10 million dollars in the project. The 10 million dollars is considered sunk cost.
