Answer:

Forecast and planning

Explanation:

An anticipatory model is a model under which market forecast determines the production of products by the manufacturer, and purchases by retailers also determined by forecasts and promotional plans. Since the forecasts are wrong most of the times, anticipatory model usually leads to differences in the actual production of the firms and what they initially planned to produce.  

Anticipatory Model is a risky model because anticipation of future events always determines the work to do by the firm.

On the contrary, the Responsive Business Model does not depend on forecasts, but ensure that what to be done are adequately planned and information among firms in the supply chain are properly exchanged. This makes the model not to be risky and ensure doing more than what has already been planned is avoided. Therefore, the aim of the responsive model which also known as Pull Model is to eliminate reliance on forecast.  

The major reason the Responsive Model has become popular in supply chain collaborations is that it allows for the customization of products on smaller orders by customers.  However, the Anticipatory Model does not give customers any choice or power but to buy or not buy.

Answer:

UNIT COST $32

Explanation:

the absorption costing system is the sum of expenses applicable to purchases and charges directly or indirectly incurred to produce a good or service.

This model considers both fixed and variable costs. Which translates into a higher unit cost.

in these case unit cost = 6+10+6+6+2+2 = 32

+Direct materials $6

+Direct labor $10

+Fixed manufacturing overhead $6,000  / 1000 units= $6

+Variable manufacturing overhead $6

+Fixed operating expenses (selling, general, and administrative) $2,000 / 1000 units=$2

Variable operating expenses (selling, general, and administrative $2

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

Calculation of Avoidable Cost:

Direct Materials                                     $3.40

Direct Labor                                           8.00

Variable manufacturing overhead          8.50

Supervisor's salary                                  3.90

Total Avoidable Cost                              $23.8

Note: Depreciation is a sunk cost and not relevant for decision making.

General Fixed Overhead will remain the same irrespective of decision. Hence, not relevant for decision making.

Evaluation of offer:

Loss on Sale from outside supplier (26.70-23.8)*15,500          $(44,950)

Additional Segment Margin earned                                          $27,500

Financial Advantage/(Disadvantage)                                          $(17,450)

Hence, annual financial disadvantage for the company as a result of buying part U16 from the outside supplier = $17,450

Analyzing and Determining Liability Amounts
EastWind [94]

Answer:

a) $250,000

b) Zero

c) $6,100

d) $47,500

Explanation:

a) Bloomington owes $250,000 at year-end 2016 for inventory purchase.\

This relates to account payable and the amount to be reported as liability as at year-end 2016 is $250,000.

b)Bloomington agreed to purchase a $31,000 drill press in January 2017.

No liability will be recognized at year-end because the entity has no present obligation as there is no legal or constructive responsibility to pay $31,000. What occurred is just an agreement that can be altered.

c) During November and December of 2016, Bloomington sold products to a customer and warranted them against product failure for 90 days. Estimated costs of honoring this 90-day warranty during 2017 are $6,100.

The entity will recognized $6,100 as warranty payable as the entity has a present obligation as at year-end 2016 to compensate the customer.

d)Bloomington provides a profit-sharing bonus for its executive equal to 5% of reported pretax annual income. The estimated pretax income for 2016 is $950,000. Bonuses are not paid until January of the following year

The entity will report 5% of $950,000 ($47,500) as liability at year-end 2016 as the the entity has a present obligation to settle its executive.

Suppose that the demand equation for Bobby Dolls is given by q = 216 – p2, where p is the price per doll in dollars and q is the
NikAS [45]

Answer:

P.Ed at p = 5 :- 0.26

Revenue maximising price = 8.5 ; Maximum Total Revenue = 1222

Explanation:

Price Elasticity of Demand shows responsive change in demand, due to change in price.  P.Ed = ( dq / dp ) x ( p / q )

q = 216 - p^2

dq / dp = - 2p  

P.Ed = dq / dp x ( p / q )  

So, PEd = ( -2p ) x ( p / q )

[ (- 2p) (p) ] / [ 216 - p^2 ]

(- 2p^2 ) / ( 216 - p^2 )

Putting value of P = 5 in P.Ed

<u>- 2(25) </u>

216 - 25

= - 50 / 191

P.Ed = 0.26

Revenue is the total value of receipts from sale of goods & services. TR = p x q

q = 216 - p^2

TR = 216p - p^3

To find price maximising TR , we will derivate TR function with respect to 'p'  

d TR / d p = 216 - 3p^2  

d TR / d p = 216 - 3p^2   = 0

3p^2 = 216

p^2 = 216 / 3

p^2 = 72

p = √ 72

p = 8.5

Finding maximum revenue ; Putting price = 8.5 in TR function

TR = 216p - p^3

216 (8.5) - (8.5)^3

1836 - 614

1222

vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

d. $80

Explanation:

The computation of the other current assets is shown below:

= Total assets - Net Property, Plant, & Equipment - cash - Accounts Receivable - inventory - Other Current Assets

= $1,870 - $1,080 - $90 - $210 - $410 - Other Current Assets

= $80 - Other Current Assets

So, the other current assets would be $80

And, we know that

Total assets = Total liabilities + total stockholder equity

So,

Total assets = $1,870
