Answer:

royal crown cola

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.

Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price  

 If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.  

Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one

Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded

both companies have an elastic demand because their coefficient of elasticities is greater than 1. Coke has a higher elasticity as a result, consumers would respond sharply to changes in price. this makes them enjoy less brand loyalty when compared with royal crown cola that has a lower elasticity of demand

The following information will be used for 2 questions on this exam: Charlotte Corporation's management keeps track of the time
BigorU [14]

Answer:

6.00 days

Explanation:

data provided

Inspection time = 3.7 days

Process time = 0.2 days

Move time = 1.3 days

Queue time = 0.8 days

The calculation of throughput time is given below:-

Throughput time = Inspection time + Process time + Move time + Queue time

= 3.7 days + 0.2 days + 1.3 days + 0.8 days

= 6.00 days

Here, we added the inspection time, process time , move time and queue time to reach at throughput time and we ignore the time spent waiting to be worked on in the factory as it is not relevant.

Nikolay [14]

Answer:

The incremental manufacturing cost that the company will incur if it increases production from 10,500 to 10,501 units is closest to $11.40

Explanation:

It is important to note that the question requires The incremental manufacturing cost that the company will incur if it increases production from 10,500 to 10,501 units

From Production of 10500 units to 10501 units, there is an increment of 1 unit.

<u>Lets find the incremental cost of 1 unit.</u>

1.To do this we only consider variable manufacturing costs only.

2.Since increase is within the relevant range, the fixed manufacturing overheads do not change.

3.Also Ignore all non- manufacturing overhead as they do not form part of manufacturing costs.

                                                         Extra 1 Unit

Direct materials                                    $6.70

Direct labor                                           $3.50

Variable manufacturing overhead     $1.20

Total Cost                                             $11.40

fomenos

Answer:

B. No effect on net income; no effect on total assets

Explanation:

When you write off bad debt, the journal entry is:

Dr Allowance for doubtful accounts XYZ

    Cr Accounts receivable XYZ

This actually had no effect on the income statement, since the allowance account is already a contra asset account.

When the write off is reversed because the customer paid the debt, the journal entry is:

Dr Accounts receivable XYZ

    Cr Allowance for doubtful accounts XYZ

Dr Cash XYZ

    Cr Accounts receivable XYZ

Again, since the company is using the allowance method, there is no real effect on the income statement nor total assets in the balance sheet.
