Robichau Incorporated reported the following results from last year’s operations: Sales $ 6,300,000 Variable expenses 4,930,000
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

Return on Investment = 17%

Explanation:

Return on Investment = Net income from investment / Investment opportunity * 100

Where Net income from investment = (Sales * Contribution margin ratio) - Fixed expenses

Net income = ($1,530,000 * 30%) - $306,000

Net income = $459,000 - $306,000

Net income = $153,000

Return on Investment = $153,000 / $900,000 * 100

Return on Investment = 17%

Wilson is offered a job in Kansas City that pays $50,000 and a job in Dallas that pays $60,000. Which pair of CPIs would ensure
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

option C is correct CPI in Kansas City is 125 and in Dallas is 150.

Explanation:

given data

Kansas City pays = $50,000

Dallas that pays = $60,000

solution

we know that CPI base year is always  = 100

first we get here real salary value in Kansas City that is express as

Real Value = Salary in Kansas City × (CPI base year ÷ CPI current year) ..........1

put her value we get

Real Value = $50,000 × \frac{100}{125}

Real Value =  $40000

and now we get here real salary value in Dallas that is express as

Real Value = Salary in Dallas City × (CPI base year ÷ CPI current year) ..........2

put her value we get

Real Value = $60,000 × \frac{100}{150}

Real Value =  $40000

so now we can see that both value is same in both city with CPI Kansas City = 125 and CPI Dallas = 150

so here correct option is c. 125 in Kansas City and 150 in Dallas

Each machine must be run by one of 19 cross-trained workers who are each available 35 hours per week. The plant has 10 type 1 ma
Mrac [35]

Answer:

The Linear programming model is given as below

Profit Function: P=90X+120Y+150Z

Constraints:

2X+2Y+Z\leq 400

3X+4Y+6Z\leq 240

4X+6Y+5Z\leq 320

\dfrac{2X+2Y+Z}{40}\leq 10

\dfrac{3X+4Y+6Z}{40}\leq 6

\dfrac{4X+6Y+5Z}{40}\leq 8

\dfrac{2X+2Y+Z}{35}+\dfrac{3X+4Y+6Z}{35}+\dfrac{4X+6Y+5Z}{35}\leq 19

Explanation:

As the question is not complete, the complete question is found online and is attached herewith.

Let the number of product 1 to be produced is X, that of product 2 is Y and product 3 is Z

so  the maximizing function is the profit function which is given as

P=90X+120Y+150Z

Now as the number of hours in a week are 40 and there are a total of 10 type 1 machines so the total number of machine 1 hours are 40*10=400 hours

As from the given table product 1 uses 2 machine hours of machine 1, product 2 uses 2 machine hours of machine 1 and product 3 uses 1 hour of machine 1 so

2X+2Y+Z\leq 400

Now as the number of hours in a week are 40 and there are a total of 6 type 2 machines so the total number of machine 2 hours are 40*6=240 hours

As from the given table product 1 uses 3 machine hours of machine 2, product 2 uses 4 machine hours of machine 2 and product 3 uses 6 hour of machine 2 so

3X+4Y+6Z\leq 240

Now as the number of hours in a week are 40 and there are a total of 8 type 3 machines so the total number of machine 3 hours are 40*8=320 hours

As from the given table product 1 uses 4 machine hours of machine 3, product 2 uses 6 machine hours of machine 3 and product 3 uses 5 hour of machine 3 so

4X+6Y+5Z\leq 320

Now as the machine 1 is used as 2X+2Y+Z in a week and the week is of 40 hours so the number of machines to be used are given as

\dfrac{2X+2Y+Z}{40}\leq 10

Now as the machine 2 is used as 3X+4Y+6Z in a week and the week is of 40 hours so the number of machines to be used are given as

\dfrac{3X+4Y+6Z}{40}\leq 6

Now as the machine 3 is used as 4X+6Y+5Z in a week and the week is of 40 hours so the number of machines to be used are given as

\dfrac{4X+6Y+5Z}{40}\leq 8

Now the workers are available for 35 hours so the worker available at the machine 1 is given as

\dfrac{2X+2Y+Z}{35}

That of machine 2 is given as

\dfrac{3X+4Y+6Z}{35}

That of machine 3 is given as

\dfrac{4X+6Y+5Z}{35}

As the total number of workers is 19 so the constraint is given as

\dfrac{2X+2Y+Z}{35}+\dfrac{3X+4Y+6Z}{35}+\dfrac{4X+6Y+5Z}{35}\leq 19

So the Linear programming model is given as below

Profit Function: P=90X+120Y+150Z

Constraints:

2X+2Y+Z\leq 400

3X+4Y+6Z\leq 240

4X+6Y+5Z\leq 320

\dfrac{2X+2Y+Z}{40}\leq 10

\dfrac{3X+4Y+6Z}{40}\leq 6

\dfrac{4X+6Y+5Z}{40}\leq 8

\dfrac{2X+2Y+Z}{35}+\dfrac{3X+4Y+6Z}{35}+\dfrac{4X+6Y+5Z}{35}\leq 19

Suppose that the weekly price of milk is $3.40 per gallon and MPEP decides to ramp up weekly advertising by 35 percent to $150 (
nadezda [96]

Answer:

Total Cost increase  5,253.4 unit

Explanation:

given data

weekly price a = $3.40 per gallon

ramp up weekly b = 35%

ramp up weekly  upto x = $150( in hundred)

solution

we will use here the regression equation that is

Y = a + b x    ...........................1

here Y is Total Cost and a is fixed cost and  

b is rate of variability and x is level of activity

so here put value in equation 1 we get

Total Cost Y = 3.40 + 0.35 × ( 15,000)

Total Cost  Y = 3.40 + 5,250

Total Cost increase  5,253.4 unit
