Question Completion:

Since the options are not provided, it is assumed that ACME requires 2,000 units of Component X monthly.  Which supplier should the company choose?

Answer:

ACME Manufacturing Company

The supplier that should be chosen is:

Supplier A.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Quantity of component X required monthly = 2,000 units

Cost of buying from supplier A = $3,000 + ($2.50 * 2,000) = $8,000

Cost of buying from supplier B = $6 * 2,000 = $12,000

Cost of buying from supplier C = $5 * 2,000 = $10,000

b) This cost decision depends on the quantity of component X required by ACME manufacturing.  If the quantity were to be less than or equal to 1,100 units, another supplier other than supplier A might be preferred.  Again, if there are other considerations apart from cost, supplier A might not be chosen.  The implication is that the choice of a supplier for a component depend on many factors.

Which statement best explains the law of supply?
oee [108]

(P.S. - in the future you will get better help when you add the possible answer choices!)

The law of supply states that, all other things equal/consistent) an increase in price will result in an increase in supply.

This is because as the price of a product goes up and up, more and more companies will be willing to sell it. The inverse is also true.. as the price goes down, fewer companies will bother selling the item.
