Answer:
1. The rate, at which the students are entering the process is 4.5 students per minute.
2. On average a student spends 4 minutes on the cafeteria line.
Explanation:
- 5 students enters the cafeteria per minutes.
10% of students does not enter the line.
therefore, percentage of students entering the line will be 100-10 = 90%.
The rate at which students enters the line will be 90% of overall students entering the cafeteria per minute:
× 5 (
= 4.5
2. The average time spend by a student on the line will be:
the time rate of a student entering the line, which is the inverse of the rate of students entering the line : 
× the number of students waiting on the line, which is 18.
⇒ × 18 = 4 minutes.
The answer is
debit work in process inventory $212,000; credit factory wages payable $212,000.
Answer:
First year: 19,000
Second year: 17,000
Third year: 15,000
Forth year: 13,000
Fifth year: 30,000
Explanation:
We need to subtract from the expected revenue the expected cost for Cash revenue 65,000
Driver Cost: (40,000)
Operating cost: <u> (6,000) </u>
Net cash flow: 19,000
This value stand for the first year
Then this will decrease by 2,000 each year as the driver wages increase over time.
Second year: 19,000 - 2,000 = 17,000
Third year: 17,000 - 2,000 = 15,000
Forth year: 15,000 - 2,000 = 13,000
In the last year we must also include the residual value of the equipment:
Fifth year: 13,000 - 2.000 + 15,000 = 30,000
Answer:
Optimal qauntity is 4 Units
Explanation:
Here, we have to decide quantity of production at which maximum profit can be generated. For this reason we will have to contruct a table which will help us to calculate Marginal Benefit and Marginal cost. This table is given as under:
Quantity Total benefit Marginal benefit Total Cost Marginal Cost
0 Units 0 0 0 0
1 Units 16 16 9 9
2 Units 32 16 20 11
3 Units 48 16 33 13
4 Units 64 16 48 15
5 Units 80 16 65 17
We can see that at 4 Units, marginal revenue is almost equal to marginal cost. At this level of production, we have maximum benefits generated which is:
Maximum Benefit Generated = ($16 - $9) + ($16 - $11) + ($16 - $13) + ($16 - $15) = $7 + $5 + $3 + $1 = $16 for 4 Units
We can also cross check by considering 5 units case to assess whether the benefit generated is more than 4 units case or not.
Maximum Benefit Generated (For 5 Units) = ($16 - $9) + ($16 - $11) + ($16 - $13) + ($16 - $15) + ($16 - $17) = $7 + $5 + $3 + $1 - $1 = $15 for 4 Units
As the maximum benefit generated in the case of 4 units is more because of using marginal revenue = Marginal Cost relation, hence the optimal quantity is 4 units.
