Answer:
A. $60
Explanation:
Recall that, consumer's surplus refers to the price that a consumer is willing to pay less the amount he or she actually pays.
Thus
Consumer surplus = maximum price willing to pay - actual market price.
Given that
Market price = $40
Vonda is willing to pay = $90
Aleiyah is willing to pay = $50
Hence.
Vonda consumer surplus = 90 - 40
= $50
Aleiyah consumer surplus = 50 - 40
= $10.
Total consumer surplus = 50 + 10
= $60.
Answer:
a)
- Prevention costs: costs incurred in order to prevent failures or minimize defects, they include maintenance expenses = $11,000
-
Appraisal costs: costs incurred in order to make sure that the products meet quality standards and customers' expectations, they include inspection costs = $15,000
-
Internal failure costs: costs incurred due to faulty products or procedures that occur before any good is actually taken out of the facilities, they include scrap and rework ($10,600) and machine breakdown costs ($5,400) = $16,000
- External failure costs: costs incurred after the goods leave the facilities, they include warranty expenses ($34,000), product returns due to defects ($6,000) and lost sales due to low quality ($10,000) = $50,000
Quality cost report:
Prevention costs
- Machine maintenance expense $11,000 $11,000
Appraisal costs
- Inspection cost $15,000 $15,000
Internal failure cost :
- Scrap & rework $10,600
- Machine breakdown costs $5,400 $16,000
External failure costs :
- Warranty expense $34,000
- Product returns due to defects $6,000
- Estimated lost sales due to poor quality $10,000 <u>$50,000</u>
Total quality cost $92,000
b) What percentage of sales revenue is being spent on prevention and appraisal activities?
total sales revenue = $500,000
prevention and appraisal costs = $26,000
% = $26,000 / $500,000 = 5.2%
c) What percentage of sales revenue is being spent on internal and external failure costs?
internal and external failure costs = $66,000
% = $66,000 / $500,000 = 13.2%
Answer:
6.75
Explanation:
Given that,
Gross sales = $150,000
Accounts receivable, beginning of year = $18,000
Sales = $135,000
Accounts receivable, end of year = $22,000
Average accounts receivables:
= (Beginning AR + Ending AR) ÷ 2
= ($18,000 + $22,000) ÷ 2
= $40,000 ÷ 2
= $20,000
Accounts receivable turnover:
= Sales ÷ Average accounts receivables
= $135,000 ÷ $20,000
= 6.75
Note: Accounts receivable, end of year is missing from the question. It is amounted to $22,000.
Answer: Nether Australia or Europe
Explanation:
Purchasing power parity is a notion that states that prices of the same or similar goods should have the same price across the world after adjusting for exchange rate differences.
If the price of a tall latte in the U.S. is $4,00, it should be the same price in Europe and Australia after exchange rate adjustments.
$4.00 in Euro is: $4.00 in Australian dollars is:
= 4 * 0.8 = 4 * 1.4
= €3.20 = $5.60
Purchasing power parity does not hold in wither countries because the prices of the lattes are not equal to the $4.00 in the U.S. after adjustments for exchange rates.
