Answer:

Basically, whoever ordered a service first is served first.

Examples in the explanation.

Explanation:

Basically, whoever ordered a service first is served first.

For example, in this method, if someone asks for a software that takes one year to develop, and then someone for one that takes a month, whoever asked for the one that makes the first ask is served first, no matter how long it takes.

This method works by order. What I mean by order is whoever comes directly before anyone else is to be catered to or to be first priority.

Answer:

Lancashire Railway Company (LRC)

Lancashire Railway Company (LRC) should reject the project. The basis for rejecting Division H's project is that its return (12%) is less than the risk-based cost of capital for the division (14%).

Explanation:

a) Data:

Division L's weighted-average cost of capital = 8%

Division H's weighted-average cost of capital = 14%

Weight of Division L = 50%

Weight of Division H = 50%

Company composite weighted average cost of capital = 11% (8% * 50%) + (14% * 50%)

Expected return from a proposed project for Division H = 12%

Answer:

It should be greater than $36

Explanation:

The opportunity cost of working is the amount of money sacrificed or could have earned if the individual was not working. In this case, Claire has decided to go with her friend which means that the opportunity cost of not working is less than the benefits receives from going out. Because she is not working it means that the opportunity cost of working is more than 36 dollars, which is the income she could have earned in 3 hours.

dangina [55]

Answer:

$82,580

Explanation:

We can calculate the estimated amount of inventory destroyed in the flood by deducting the cost of goods sold by the cost of goods available for sale.

DATA

Beginning Inventory = $215,950

Inventory purchased = $192,730

Sales = $543,500

Calculation

Inventory destroyed Iestimated) = Cost of Goods available for sale - Cost of Goods Sold

Inventory destroyed Iestimated) = $408,680 - $326,100

Inventory destroyed Iestimated) = $82,580

Working

Cost of Goods available for sale = Beginning Inventory + Inventory purchased

Cost of Goods available for sale = $215,950 + $192,730

Cost of Goods available for sale = $408,680

Cost of Goods Sold = Sales - Gross Profits

Cost of Goods Sold = $543,500 - ($543400 x 40%)

Cost of Goods Sold = $ 326,100

never [62]

Answer:

No, Loni should not take the loan and build the app.

Explanation:

If she borrows $87,000 to build the app, at the end of the year she will have to pay $87,000 x (1+0.15) = 100,050 in principal and interest to the bank.

After selling the app she will get 99,000 - 100,050 = $1,050.

In other words, she will be making a loss.

Company C&A sells 600 bottles of a dietary supplement per week at $100 per bottle. The supplement is ordered from a supplier

Katen [24]

Answer:

A. 300

Explanation:

The computation of the economic order quantity is shown below:

= $\sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{Annual demand}\times \text{Ordering cost}}{\text{Carrying cost}}}$

where,

Annual demand = 600 bottles × 50 weeks = 30,000 bottles

Carrying cost per bottle = $50 × 40% = $20

And, the ordering cost per order is $30

Now put these values to the above formula

So, the value would equal to

= $\sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{30,000}\times \text{\$30}}{\text{\$20}}}$

= 300 bottles

Hence, option A is correct
