The owner of Chips etc. produces two kinds of chips: lime (L) and vinegar (V). He has a limited amount of the three ingredients

used to produce these chips available for his next production run: 4800 ounces of salt, 9600 ounces of flour, and 2000 ounces of herbs. A bag of lime chips requires 2 ounces of salt, 6 ounces of flour, and 1 ounce of herbs to produce; while a bag of vinegar chips requires 3 ounces of salt, 8 ounces of flour, and 2 ounces of herbs. Profits for a bag of lime chips are $0.40, and for a bag of vinegar chips $0.50. What is the formulation for this problem? Suppose that L and V are the decision variables respectively of Lime and Vinegar.

Answer:

Objective function (maximize)

Profit=0.40L+0.50V

Constraints

- Availabitily of salt: 2L+3V\leq4800

- Availability of herbs: 1C+2V\leq 2000

- Availability of flour: 6C+8V\leq9600

Explanation:

This a linear programming problem. We have an objective function (in this case it is the profit) that we want to optimize, but complying with constraints (in this case, the availability of ingredients).

The objective function can be defined taking into account the profits of the two kind of chips:

Profit=0.40L+0.50V

The constraints can be expressed taking into account the amount of ingredients every unit of chip needs and stating that it has to be less or equal to the availability of this ingredient:

- Availabitily of salt:

2L+3V\leq4800

- Availability of herbs

1C+2V\leq 2000

- Availability of flour

6C+8V\leq9600

With these expressions the linear programming problem can be solved.

                                                 Cash                         $42.336million Cr

Explanation:

1.

When note is issued, liability is credit by the notes value and cash is credited.

2.

The adjusting entry is prepared 3 months after the note is issued so the 3 month's interest on note relates to 2015 and it should be recorded as expense and as it is payable at maturity so interest payable is credited.

3 month interest = 39.2 * 0.08 * 3/12 = 0.784million

3.

The note and interest will be payable that was accrued along with the remaining 9 months interest. Total interest is 39.2 * 0.08 = 3.136million

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": company that specializes in making replacement tiles for the space shuttle.

Explanation:

Market-dependent industries are those whose production relies on the manufacturing of another institution. This is a threat for the entity since if the other producers fail, the entity is likely to follow the same path. The situation is even worse when the manufacturing company produces rare or uncommon goods.

Therefore, <em>a firm producing replacement tiles for space shuttles is highly market-dependent since a few organizations worldwide require spare parts for space tiles, which is not a common product traded in the market.</em>
