The population of a country Dnalgne is 90 million in 1997 and increasing at a rate of 0.1 million per year. The average annual i
adoni [48]

Answer:

The answer is: 2.514% in percentage term or $56,560 million in absolute term.

Explanation:

The entire population income of Dnalgne in the beggining of 1997 = Total population of Dnalgne in the beginning of 1997 x average annual income of a person in Dnalgne in the beginning of 1997 = 90 million x 25,000 = $2,250,000 million

The poplulation of Dnalgne at the end of 1997 = 90 million + 0.1 million = 90.1 million; The average annual income of a person in Dnalgne at the end of 1997 = 25,000 +600 = $25,600

The entire population income of Dnalgne in the end of 1997 = Total population of Dnalgne at the end of 1997 x average annual income of a person in Dnalgne at the end of 1997 = 90.1 million x 31,000 = $2,306,560 million

Thus. the rise in absolute number is $2,306,560 million - $2,250,000 million = $56,560 million or 56,560/2,250,000 = 2.514% in percentage term.

Which of these statements about the production order quantity model is FALSE? The production order quantity model is appropriate
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

Question is written again to add options:

A. The production order quantity model is appropriate when the assumptions of the basic EOQ model are met, except that receipt is noninstantaneous.

B.  Average inventory is more than one-half of the production order quantity.

C. Because receipt is noninstantaneous, some units are used immediately and not stored in inventory.

D. All else equal, the smaller the ratio of demand rate to production rate, the smaller is the production order quantity.

E. None of these is false.

The correct answer is option B "Average inventory is more than one-half of the production order quantity."

Explanation:

With an inventory, it is possible to separate parts of the production process , to separate assets from goods are yet to be produced or are already produced that could serve as a source of income for a company.

An average inventory is less than one-half of the production order quantity.

The production order quantity model doesn't make it possible for the ordered quantity to be received at one time.

The production order quantity model helps a company on how to manage inventory holding costs and the average fixed ordering cost, thereby making it possible for a company to check and minimize its inventory cost and to have a guide on what quantity to produce at every point in time.
