Answer:

$1,498.86

Explanation:

Given that;

Packing of crates per month(u) = 779

Annual carrying cost of 39% of the purchase price per crate

Ordering cost (S) = $27

D = 779 × 12 = $9,348 crates per year

H = 0.39P

H = 0.39 × $12

H = $4.68 crates per year

Total ordering cost = D/Q × S

= ( $9,348 / 779 ) × $27

= $324

Total Holding cost = Q / 2 × H

= ( 779 / 2 ) × $4.68

= $1,822.86

Annual savings = Total holding cost - Total ordering cost

= $1,822.86 - $324

= $1,498.86

The firm would be saving $1,498.86 annually.

Carla Vista Company reports the following operating results for the month of August: sales $385,000 (units 5,500), variable cost
Neko [114]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

1.  

Selling Price = Sales ÷  Units Sold

Current Selling Price = $385,000 ÷  5500

= $70

Now

Expected Selling Price per unit = $70 + ($70× 10%)

= $77

Now

Expected Sales = 5500 × $77

= $423,500

Now

Net Income = Sales - Variable Cost - Fixed Cost

= $423,500 - $250,000 - $94,000  

2.  

Sales = $385000

Variable cost = $385,000 × 56% = $215,600

Sales                     $385,000

Less: variable cost -$215,600

Contribution Margin $169,400

Les: fixed cost          -$94,000

Net Income               $75,400

As we can see that if there is an increase in Selling Price by 10% so it would produce highest Net Income.

Marginal revenue can become negative for A. both competitive and monopoly firms. B. monopoly firms but not for competitive firms
Lena [83]

Answer:

B. monopoly firms but not for competitive firms.

Explanation:

Marginal revenue can become negative for monopoly firms but not for competitive firms.

A monopolist’s marginal revenue is always less than or equal to the price  of the good.

Marginal revenue is the amount of revenue the firm receives for  each additional unit of output. It is the difference between total revenue – price  times quantity – at the new level of output and total revenue at the previous  output (one unit less).

Since the monopolist’s marginal cost curve lies below its demand curve.  When a monopoly increases amount sold, it has two effects on total revenue:

– the output effect: More output is sold, so Q is higher.

– the price effect: To sell more, the price must decrease, so P is lower.

For a competitive firm there is no price effect. The competitive firm can sell  all it wants at the given price.

So the marginal revenue on a monopolist's additional unit sold is lower than the price, <u>because it gets less revenue for selling additional units.</u>

<u>Marginal revenue can become negative – that is, the total revenue decreases from one output level to the next. </u>

torisob [31]

Answer:

C) can get started more easily and maneuver faster

Explanation:

A small business (sole proprietorship, partnership, limited liability company) can maneuver much faster than any corporation simply because the owners are the managers of the business. The owners do not have to ask anyone for permission to make any decisions or decide new business activities. Also, last but not least, you are your own boss, and that is priceless.

Small businesses are also much easier to set up and do not require a lot of paperwork and authorizations to start operating.
