A raise in the price of a product

Sunlight Design Corporation sells glass vases at a wholesale price of $4.50 per unit. The variable cost to manufacture is $1.75

guapka [62]

Answer:

D) 5182 glass vases

Explanation:

Contribution per glass vases:

$4.5 selling price - $ 1.75 variable cost= 2.75

Operating income:

29,000 units x $ 2.75 - $ 8,500 = $71,250 operating income

Target income is to obtain a 20% increase:

71,250 x (1 + 20%) = 85,500 target income:

units needed for target income:

(85,500 target income + 8,500 fixed cost) / 2.75 contribution per unit= 34.181,81

aditional glass vases needed for target income:

34,182 - 29,000 = 5,182

Explanation:

Cash flows Discount factor Future value

$100 1.1449 $114.49

$200 1.07 $214

$300 1 $300

Future value $628.49

The discount factor is as follows

= (1 + interest rate)^number of years

For $100 the year is 2

For $200 the year is 1

For $300 the year is 0

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

rely on the invisible hand of the market to reallocate resources,

Explanation:

The invincible hand was adams Smith's idea which is defined as an observable market force that helps the demand and supply of goods in a free market to attain equilibrium naturally without government intervention in the market thereby leaving the people alone to buy and sell freely among themselves . This would naturally choose type of goods to be produced and reduce resource waste by closing Down weak markets that produce less demanded products.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) defines a healthy sleep duration

laiz [17]

a. The point estimate of the married people that sleep well is = 0.6299. The confidence interval for the mean hours of sleep for those that have never been married but report good sleep is 0.6186, 0.6412

b. The point estimate of the number of hours for people that have never been married = 7.2257

95% confidence interval for the mean number of hours of sleep for those who have never been married = 7.2065, 7.2447

c. the estimated number of sleep for those that have never been married = 7.729 hours

a. The point estimate

$P=\frac{Xp}{n}$

$Xp = successes\\n = sample size\\$

Those who have never been married n = 7044

Xp = those who sleep for 7 hours at least

To get Xp, the excel function

Countif(range, criteria)

Countif(A:A, >=7)

This gives Xp = 4437

Point estimate =

$\frac{4477}{7044}$

= 0.6299

The point estimate of the married people that sleep well is = 0.6299

At 95% interval of confidence,

α = 1-0.95 = 0.05

α/2 = 0.05/2 = 0.025

Z0.025 = 1.96 ( Use the standard probability normal table)

Margin of Error

= $M.E = 1.96\sqrt \frac{0.6299(1-0.6299)}{7044} \\\\= 1.96\sqrt{0.000033} \\\\1.96*0.0057$

= 0.0113

The 95% confidence interval

= 0.6299 - 0.0113 , 0.6299 + 0.0113

= 0.6186, 0.6412

The confidence interval for the mean hours of sleep for those that have never been married is 0.6186, 0.6412

b. Sample mean

x = ∑x/n

x = number of sleep of the never been married

Mean is calculated using excel function

Average(range)

Average(a:a)

This gives the sample mean = 7.2257

The point estimate of the number of hours for people that have never been married = 7.2257

Standard deviation using excel =

Stdev(A:A) = 0.8211

$Margin of error =1.96*\frac{0.8211}{\sqrt{7044} }$

= 0.0192

The confidence interval =

= 7.2257-0.0192, 7.2257+0.0192

= 7.2065, 7.2447

95% confidence interval for the mean number of hours of sleep for those who have never been married = 7.2065, 7.2447

c. From the available data, the mean number of sleep per day that is gotten from the 4437 people that are unmarried and sleep healthily for at least 7 hours = 34295.1

Mean = 34295.1/4437

= 7.729

the estimated number of sleep for those that have never been married = 7.729 hours
