Answer: over-borrowing.

Explanation:

credit cards function like this: you can "buy" a lot of things with it, including very very expensive things. this is because instead of really buying that product, you borrow money from the bank to buy it. you then have to pay it off in slower amounts of money over time until youve paid off the original cost of the product and more because the bank will most likely charge interest.

sounds great, right?

it is, until you cant afford to pay those smaller amounts of money. then, it starts to build up and if you still cant afford to pay the bank, they will begin to liquidize your physical assets (they take your stuff as payment, really anything, even your house can be taken.)

Answer:

Resource Immobility

Explanation:

A critical assumption of the resource-based model—resource immobility—is that resources tend to be "sticky" and don't move easily from firm to firm. Because of that stickiness, the resource differences that exist between firms are difficult to replicate and, therefore, can last for a long time

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

(a) 1,078.12  copies

(b) 6.68 runs per year

(c) 37.43 days

(d) 10.78 days

(e) 767.62  copies

(f) $2,003.48

(g) 432 copies

Explanation:

Given that,

Annual demand (D) = 7200 copies

Cost of the book (C) = $14.50

Holding cost (H) = 18% of cost of book = 18% of $14.50

                           = $2.61

Setup costs (S) = $150

Annual production volume = 25,000 copies

Number of working days = 250

Lead time (L) = 15 days

Daily demand (d) = Annual demand ÷ Number of working days

                            = 7200 ÷ 250

                            = 28.8 copies

Daily production (p) = Annual production ÷ Number of working days

                                 = 25000 ÷ 250

                                 = 100 copies

(a) Minimum cost production lot size (Q):

Q=\sqrt{\frac{2\times D\times S}{H\times (1-\frac{d}{p})}}

Q=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 7,200\times 150}{2.61\times (1-\frac{28.8}{100})}}

Q = 1,078.12  copies

(b) Number of production runs:

= Annual demand (D) ÷ Production quantity (Q)

= 7,200 ÷ 1,078.12

= 6.68 runs per year

(c) Cycle time:

= Production quantity (Q) ÷ Daily demand (d)

= 1,078.12 ÷ 28.8

= 37.43 days

(d) Length of a production run:

= Production quantity (Q) ÷ Daily production (p)

= 1,078.12 ÷ 100

= 10.78 days

(e) Maximum inventory (Imax):

= Q × (1 - d÷p)

= 1,078.12 × (1 - 28.8 ÷ 100)

= 767.62  copies

(f) Total annual cost:

= Annual holding cost + Annual setup cost

=  [(Q ÷ 2) × H × (1 - d÷ p)] +  [(D ÷ Q) × S]

=  [(1,078.12 ÷ 2) × $2.61 × (1 - 28.8 ÷ 100)] +  [(7,200 ÷ 1,078.12) × $150]

= $1,001.74 + $1,001.74

= $2,003.48

(g) Reorder point:

= Daily demand × Lead time

= 28.8 × 15

= 432 copies

Archy [21]

Answer:

Since no transactions are specified that were made out of the group ( i.e. Holding Company and Subsidiary) so, in consolidated income statement of 20x8, no COGS shall be shown for the transactions made between Pie and Slice Co.

Explanation:

In consolidated financial statements, we represent Holding ( Pie ) and Subsidiary ( Slice ) Companies as a single unit. Hence, the transactions made within the group are not considered in making of Consolidated financial statements.

However, both companies will show the sales and COGS in separate financial statements.

1. Calculate owners’ equity. Pasta Enterprises has $42,000 in cash, $20,000 in inventory, $17,000 balance due to creditors, and
mash [69]

Answer:

The amount of owners’ equity is $66,000

Explanation:

Basing on the balance sheet equation:

Assests = Liabilities + Owners’ equity

Therefore:

Owners’ equity = Assests - Liabilities

Pasta Enterprises has $42,000 in cash, $20,000 in inventory, and $21,000 balance due from customers.

Assests = Cash + Inventory + Balance due from customers = $42,000 + $20,000 + $21,000 = $83,000

Liabilities = Balance due to creditors = $17,000

Owners’ equity = $83,000 - $17,000 = $66,000
