The easiest way to solve this is to work with two equations:

<span>X + 4000Y = $5000  (1)</span>

<span>X + 2000Y = $4000  (2)</span>

Where X is the fixed portion of the water bill and Y is the cost of water per car.

 

Solve for X for each equation:

<span>X = $5000 – 4000Y  (3)</span>

<span>X = $4000 – 2000Y  (4)</span>

 

Therefore:

$5000 – 4000Y = $4000 – 2000Y (5)

 

Solve for Y:

Y = $0.5

 

Substitute into equation1:

X + 4000(0.5) = $5000

<span>X = $3000</span>

A company has a process that results in 12,000 pounds of Product A that can be sold for $8 per pound. An alternative would be to
eimsori [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is management should sell Product A now.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows:

Total production = 12,000 pounds

Sell price = $8 per pound

If process further, Cost = $80,000

Selling price = $14 per pound

So, If we sell the product without further process, than

Total sale value = 12,000 × $8 = $96,000

And, if we sell the product after further processing, then

Total sale value = (12,000 × $14) - $80,000

= $88,000.

As, sales value is more in selling the product without further process, so management should sell the product without further processing it.

Explanation:

Dreamworld's average accumulated expenditures for 2018 was

January 1 - December 31, 2018 = $307,000 x \frac{12}{12} = $307,000

September 31 - December 31 = $459,000 x \frac{3}{12} = $114,750

December 31 - December 31 = $459,000 x \frac{0}{12} = $0

Total expenditure = $307,000 + $114,750 + $0

Total expenditure = $421,750
