1 answer:

7 0

Given the scenario described herein, one good solution for the business to invest in a new product when it is short on cash is <u>B. Liquidate some inventory to increase cash flow.</u>

In accounting, cash includes bills, coins, bank balances, money orders, and checks. Cash is the first item in most balance sheets, especially if the company is reporting liquidity. Cash happens to be the most liquid of all assets. Cash also includes cash equivalents, which are assets readily converted into cash.

Thus, the company does not need to raise prices, fire employees, or cut wages to raise cash. It can liquidate some inventory at lower prices if necessary.

A time standard was set as 0.20 hour per unit based on the 20th unit produced. Assume the task has a 60 percent learning curve.

Sliva [168]

Answer:

40th unit = 0.11 hr

80th unit = 0.06 hr

160th unit = 0.03 hr

Explanation:

Given :

$T_{20} = 0.2$

Learning rate = 60% = 0.6 (r)

Now using the learning curve equation,

$T_n = T_1(n)^b$

where b is $b= \frac{\ln r}{\ln 2} = \frac{\ln 0.6}{\ln 2}$ = -0.833

Now

$T_{20} = T_1(20)^{-0.833}$

$0.20 = T_1 (0.0824)$

$T_1$ = 2.5

For 40th unit

$T_{40} = 2.5(40)^{-0.833}$

= 0.11 hrs

For 80th unit

$T_{80} = 2.5(80)^{-0.833}$

= 0.06 hrs

For 160th unit

$T_{160} = 2.5(160)^{-0.833}$

= 0.03 hr

Paper Corporation owns 75 percent of Scissor Company's stock. On July 1, 20X8, Paper sold a building to Scissor for $33,000. Pap

Kazeer [188]

The depreciation expense will be credited for $750 in the consolidating entries while preparing the 20X8 consolidated income statement,

<h3>What is the depreciation expense?</h3>

This refers to the cost of an asset that has been depreciated for a single period such as in that year.

Depreciation expense = Cost - Salvage value / Useful life

Depreciation expense = $36,000 - $33,000 / (2 years (semi-annual charges)

Depreciation expense = $3,000 / 4

Depreciation expense = $750

Therefore, the depreciation expense will be credited for $750 in the consolidating entries while preparing the 20X8 consolidated income statement,

Given the Production Function Q = 72X + 15X2 - X3, where Q =Output and X=Input

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

A. 120

B. 126

C. x=12

D. x=5

Explanation:

A. Calculation to determine the Marginal Product (MP) when X = 8

Production function=Q=72x+15x^2-x^3

Let x be 8

Marginal Product (MP)=dQ/dx

Marginal Product (MP)=72x+15x^2-x^3

Marginal Product (MP)=72+30x-3x^2

Now let plug in X = 8

Marginal Product (MP)=72+30(8)-3(8)^2

Marginal Product (MP)=72+240-192

Marginal Product (MP)=120

Therefore the Marginal Product (MP) when X = 8 will be 120

B. Calculation to determine the Average Product (AP) when X = 6

Average Product (AP)=Q/X

Average Product (AP)=72+15x-x^2

Let plug in x=6

Average Product (AP)=72+15(6)-(6)^2

Average Product (AP)=72+90-36

Average Product (AP)=126

Therefore the Average Product (AP) when X = 6 is 126

C. Calculation to determine at what value of X will Q be at its maximum

Maximizing Q=dQ/dx=0

Maximizing Q=72+30x-3x^2=0

Maximizing Q=3x^2-30x-72=0

Maximizing Q=x^2-10x-24=0

Maximizing Q=x^2-12x+2x-24=0

Maximizing Q=x(x-12)+2(x-12)=0

Hence:

x=12 or (x=-2)

Therefore at what value of X will Q be at its maximum will be at x=12

D. Calculation to determine At what value of X will Diminishing Returns set in

Diminishing returns=dMP/dx=d²Q/dx²

Diminishing returns=30-6x<0

Hence:

x=30/6<0

x=5<0

Therefore at what value of X will Diminishing Returns set in will be at x= 5 or when MP is at a MAXIMUM VALUE.
