Answer:

10) c. $40,000

11)  a. $15,000

12) All of the above are correct.

Explanation:

we are given:

Total seats available = 150

100 business traveller are willing to pay $600 per ticket

50 business traveller are willing to pay $300 per ticket

Cost of airline of providing flight = $20,000

 

10)

when the airline sell the ticket at $600, only business traveller will be willing to pay for the ticket

Total business traveller = 100  

Total money incurred by selling the tickets = $(600 x 100 )

                                                                        = $60,000

Cost of providing flight = $20,000

profit generated = $( 60,000 - 20,000)

                           = $ 40,000

Therefore, the profit generated is $40,000

11)  

charging each customer their willingness to pay relative to charging a flat price of $600 per ticket

first 100 customers will be business traaveller they will buy the tickets at the flat price of $600, after that the company will sell it's ticket to the vacationer at a price lower than the flat price by maximum price the vaccationer is willing to pay i.e $300

So net extra profit in this case will be (300 x 50 ) = $15,000  

12)

It must be remembered that the main aim of price discrimination is to increase the total revenue and hopefully the profits of the supplier.

So the monopolist will always try to maximize the profit

Answer:

The calculation will be more accurate, because the base year is the oldest.

CPI is calculated as

The mathematical reason why it is better to take the oldest year is that % growth works better

Answer:

Lack of growth

Explanation:

Emily jones, a junior design artist with a studio called eye for design, was known to be very good at her job. she had a lot of experience from working on numerous projects and she often mentored new employees successfully. she was paid well and her colleagues and peers, some of whom emily knew for four years, appreciated her helpful and lively nature. it came as a surprise to everyone when emily resigned after the recent round of annual appraisals. during her exit interview, emily said that the only reason that she was taking this move was because she had a strong feeling that she was stagnant in her career. her reason for leaving is the lack of growth in her job in this company.

A strong feeling of being stagnant is normally a sign that the growth process has been truncated., because Emily didnt seem to be learning anything new

Zolol [24]

Answer and Explanation:

Particulars Amount

Standard variable manufacturing overhead cost for march $960

Standard variable manufacturing overhead rate per direct labor hour $2

Standard direct labor hours for march

=960/2

= $ 480

Standard direct labor rate per hour

=$ 5,040/$480

= $ 10.5

The labor efficiency variance

Actual Cost per unit of back pack production

=(9,120+5,040+960)/(400)

=15,120/400

=$ 37.8

Total Number of produced Back packs 400

Total Actual cost of production $ 15,120

Less: Actual cost of materials $5,520

Actual cost of manufacturing Overhead 2,620

Actual cost of Direct Labor 6,980

Labor efficiency varaince = 5040-6980 = -$ 1940

Variable overhead rate variance=(Actual Hour*Actual Rate)-(Actual Hour of input*Standard Rate)

=(2620*2)

= $ 5240

Variable overhead rate variance = $ 5240
