ires 20 lb of plastic and 9 min of labor. To manufacture each standard model requires 30 lb of plastic and 6 min of labor. The profit for each luxury model is $40, and the profit for each standard model is $15. If 12,600 lb of plastic and 60 hr of labor are available for the production of the steppers per day, how many steppers of each model should Bata produce in order to maximize its profits?

Answer:

to maximize profit it will produce:

400 units of luxury

none of standard.

Explanation:

luxury:

20 lb of pastic and 9 min of labor and 40 dollars profit

standard:

30lb plastic 6 of labor and $15

We calculate the contribution per constrain resourse:

<u>labor hours</u>

40 / 9 = 4.44

15 / 6 =  2.5

<u>materials</u>

40/20 = 2

15 / 30 = 0.5

As luxury provides better contribution in both categories we will maximize his production.

60 hours x 60 min per hours = 3,600 min

3,600 / 9 min = 400 units of luxury steppers

12,600/20 = 630 units of luxury

Once we use the labor hours we cannot keep producing, so we maximize the profit at 400 units of luxury at the given scenario.

As there is no amounft left for standard we don't produce any

Omaha Miami

Earnings Earnings Value of Quality Life Expense to Move to Miami Net Value Difference in Value

Alex 200000 180000 40000 5000 215000 15000

Bobby 120000 150000 40000 5000 185000 65000

Cory 315000 300000 25000 5000 320000 5000

Dana 150000 100000 25000 5000 120000 -30000

Tied mover – any person who moves with their partner even if the person's employment is better at the present location.

Assuming all the friends agree on moving to Miami, Dana will compromise in value, therefore, Dana is the Tied Mover.

Tied Stayer – any of them who stays with the partner at current location even if the person's employment opportunity is better somewhere else.

Assuming all the friends decided to be in Omaha, Alex, Bobby and Cory will compromise in value, therefore, Alex, Bobby and Cory are the Tied Stayers.

A manufacturing company has the following budgeted overhead costs: Indirect materials: $0.50 per unit; Utilities: $0.25 per unit
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

Total overhead                       $

Indirect material ($0.5 x 200,000 units) = 100,000

Utilities ($0.25 x 200,000 units)             = 50,000

Supervisory salaries                                 = 60,000

Building rent                                              = 80,000

Total overhead                                             290,000

Overhead rate                = <u>Budgeted overhead</u>

                                           Budgeted direct labour hours

                                         = <u>$290,000</u>

                                              100,000 hours

                                         = $2.90 per direct labour hour

Explanation:

In this case, we need to obtain the total overhead, which is the total of indirect material, utilities, supervisory salaries and building rent.

Then, we will divide the total overhead by direct labour hours so as to determine the overhead rate.

. Ashley has an individual medical expense insurance policy with a $1,000 calendar-year deductible and a 80–20 percent coinsuran
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

Amount insurer pays = $7000

Amount Ashley pays = $3000

Explanation:

Given that

Deductible = 1000

Incured medical Bill's = 10,000

On a 80-20 coinsurance clause

The insurer pays 80% of incured cost minus deductible and Ashley pays 20% of incured cost plus deductibles.

Therefore

Amount insurer pays = (10000 × 0.8) - 1000

= 8000 - 1000

= $7000

Amount Ashley Pays = (10000 × 0.2) + 1000

= 2000 + 1000

= $3000
