Solution:  
Let the amount invested in scheme which yields 9% be x and amount invested in scheme which yields 13% be y.  
x + y = 180000 --equation 1 
0.09x + 0.13y = 18000 --equation 2  
Balancing the equations, multiply equation 1 with 0.09 and equation 2 with 1,  
0.09x + 0.09y = 16200 -equation 3
 0.09x + 0.13y = 18000 --equation4  
Subtracting equation 4 from 3, 
 -0.04y = -1800  
y = 45000 
 Now putting value of y in equation 1, 
 x + 45000 = 180000 
 x = 135000 
 The amount to be invested in scheme which yields 9% = $135,000
 The amount to be invested in scheme which yields 13% = $45,000

mylen [45]

The solution for this problem is:

Let x be the number of months; and

Let y be the amount paid

We know that m is $199 per month and the two other given are 6 months and 2694.

 

y = 199 (x -6) + 2694

y = 199 (36 -6) + 2694

y = 199 (30) + 2694

y = 8664

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

270,000 units

Explanation:

Given that:

Beginning Inventory for finished goods: 31,000

Ending Inventory for finished goods :  41,000

Beginning Inventory for raw materials: 61000

Ending Inventory for raw materials: 51,000

Units planned to be sold: 260,000

We compute the produced finished goods = Ending inventory + Units sold − Beginning inventory

           = 41,000 + 260,000 − 31,000 = 270,000

The number of units the company would have to manufacture during the year would be 270,000
