Answer:
Producer price index
Explanation:
Producer price index is used as an economic indicators which indicates the fluctuations in the price level in an economy. It is the leading indicator for the consumer price index.
Producer price index refers to the price index which measures the change in the average price received by the producers for their output over a specified period of time.
The producer price index doesn't takes into account the effect of indirect taxes but wholesale price index takes the effect of indirect taxes.
It is calculated as follows:
PPI = (Current prices received by sellers ÷ Base year prices) × 100
Answer:
Consumer EVA 7, 133.00
Commercial EVA 7,090.50
<u>Both are profitable</u>
<u />
Explanation:
The EVA (economic value added) is the result from subtracting the cost of capital of the investment to their divisional income. This will determinate if the division increase the company's capital or destroyed (as it return less than optimal/desired)
Consumer Income 11,500
Investment: 35,500 + 4,200 = 39,700
EVA: 11,500 - 39,700 x 11% = 7, 133
Commercial Income 11,925
Investment: 39,750 + 4,200 = 43,950
EVA: 11,925 - 43,950 x 11% = 7090.5
Both division are profitable as they generate more income than the cost of the investment
Answer:
3,825.2 labor hours
Explanation:
Learning rate (Unit 1 and unit 2):
= Labor hour required for 2nd unit ÷ Labor hour required for 1st unit
= 1,200 ÷ 2,000
= 0.60
Learning rate (Unit 2 and unit 3):
= Labor hour required for 3rd unit ÷ Labor hour required for 2nd unit
= 1,130 ÷ 1,200
= 0.94
Average of learning rates = (0.60 + 0.94 ) ÷ 2
= 0.77
As per learning curve calculator the value of 77% for 6 units = 4.0776
Cumulative time = Factor × Time of first unit
= 4.0776 × 2,000
= 8,155.2
Hence,
Time for next three units:
= Cumulative time - Sum of the time of first, second and third unit
= 8,155.2 - (2,000 + 1,200 + 1,130)
= 3,825.2 labor hours should Simpson plan for.
Answer:
Markup percentage= 900%
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
I sell shoes for $250 per pair. They cost me $25 to produce.
<u>To calculate the markup percentage, we need to use the following formula:</u>
Markup percentage= [(selling price - unitary cost)/unitary cost]*100
Markup percentage= [(250 - 25)/25]*100
Markup percentage= 900%
