Answer:
$30,000
Explanation:
Use the following formula to calculate the total cost
Total cost = ordering costs + holding costs
Where
Ordering costs = Numbers of orders placed per year x Ordering Cost per order = ( 45,000 units / 3,000 units per order ) x $1,000 per order = 15 x $1,000 = $15,000
Holding costs = Average Inventory x Holding cost per unit per year = ( 3,000 units / 2 ) x ( $100 x 10% ) = 1,500 units x $10 = $15,000
Placing values in the formula
Total Cost = $15,000 + $15,000
Total Cost = $30,000
Along any downward sloping straight-line demand curve: Group of answer choices both the price elasticity and slope are constant. both the price elasticity and slope vary. the price elasticity varies, but the slope is constant. the slope varies, but the price elasticity is constant.
Answer:
the price elasticity varies, but the slope is constant
Explanation:
The demand curve is a curve that shows the relationship between price and quantity demanded. The demand curve is negatively sloped because the higher the price, the lower the quantity demanded. This is in line with the law of demand.
According to the law of demand, the higher the price, the lower the quantity demanded and the lower the price, the higher the quantity demanded.
At the midpoint of the demand curve, demand is usually unit elastic. Above the midpoint of the demand curve, demand is elastic and blow the midpoint, demand is inelastic
Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.
Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price
Price elasticity of demand = midpoint change in quantity demanded / midpoint change in price
If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.
Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one
Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded.
Infinitely elastic demand is perfectly elastic demand. Demand falls to zero when price increases
Perfectly inelastic demand is demand where there is no change in the quantity demanded regardless of changes in price.

The explanation of the answers is now provided as follows:
1. Without regard to demand, what is the minimum possible cycle time (in seconds) for this situation?
The minimum cycle time is equal to the maximum task time. From the data in the question, it can be seen that the maximum task time is 54. Therefore, the correct option is C. 54. That is, the minimum possible cycle time (in seconds) for this situation is 54.
2. If the company desires that output rate equal demand, what is the desired cycle time (in seconds)?
Desired cycle time (in seconds) = Demand rate / Number of hours per days = 480 / 8 = 60
Therefore, the correct option is E. 60.
3. If the company desires that output rate equal demand, what is the minimum number of workstations needed?
Total task time = 30 + 30 + 6 + 12 + 54 + 30 = 162
Minimum possible cycle time = 54
Therefore, we have:
Minimum number of workstations needed = Total task time / Minimum possible cycle time = 162 / 54 = 3
Therefore, the correct option is A. 3.
4. If the company desires that output rate equal demand, what would be the efficiency of this line with the minimum number of workstations?
Line efficiency = Total task time / (Minimum number of workstations needed * Desired cycle time) = 162 / (3 * 60) = 162 / 180 = 0.90, or 90%
Therefore, the correct option is E. 90%.
5. If the company desires that output rate equal demand, what is the last task performed at the second workstation in the balance which uses the minimum number of workstations?
The last task should be the one has the longest task time. From the data table in the question, it can be observed that y is the task that has the longest task time. This implies y is the task to perform last.

In the small country of Economerica, there are 6 thousand people employed, 1 thousand people unemployed, and 3 thousand people of working age not included in the labor force. One thousand students graduate from the university and seek jobs in the country, but not one graduate is able to find one. Half of the new graduates believe there is no chance of finding a job and return home to live with their parents. Ceteris Paribus, what would the new unemployment rate be in Economerica?
A. 14.29%
B. 20.00%
C. 25.00%
D. 45.45%
Answer: B. 20.00%
Explanation:
Unemployment rate does not include those who have given up on finding a job.
Unemployment rate = Unemployed people / Labor force
Unemployed people:
= Original unemployed + half the new graduates
= 1,000 + (1,000 / 2)
= 1,500 people
Labor force:
= Unemployed + employed people
= 1,500 + 6,000
= 7,500 people
Unemployment rate:
= 1,500 / 7,500
= 20%

The country of Bolivia had a Gross Domestic Product of $79 billion in 2016 and a population of 11 million people, the GDP per capita would be ________.
Answer:
The GDP per capita of country of Bolivia would be $7,181.82.
Explanation:
GDP Per capita refers to a measure that calculates a country's economic output per person by dividing its GDP by its population.
Therefore, we have:
GDP per capita = GDP / Population = $79 billion / 11 million = $79,000,000,000 / $11,000,000 = $7,181.82
Therefore, the GDP per capita of country of Bolivia would be $7,181.82.
In Washburn's factory, what is the break-even point for the new line of guitars if the retail price is (a) $349, (b) $389, and (c) $309? Also, (d) if Washburn achieves the sales target of 2,000 units at the $349 retail price, what will its profit be?
Answer:
a. 186 units
b. 156 units
c. 232 units
d. $370,000
Explanation:
a. Calculation to determine the break-even point for the new line of guitars if the retail price is $349
Using this formula
Break-even point quantity = Fixed cost / Unit price – Unit variable cost
Let plug in the formula
Break-even point quantity = ($14,000 + $4,000 + $20,000) / $349 – ($25 + $120)
Break-even point quantity= $38,000 / $349 - $145
Break-even point quantity= $38,000 / $204
Break-even point quantity= 186.27
Break-even point quantity= 186 units
Therefore the break-even point for the new line of guitars if the retail price is $349 will be 186 units
b. Calculation to determine the break-even point for the new line of guitars if the retail price is $389
Break-even point quantity = ($14,000 + $4,000 + $20,000) / $389 – ($25 + $120)
Break-even point quantity= $38,000 / $389 - $145
Break-even point quantity= $38,000 / $244= 155.74
Break-even point quantity = 156 units (Approximately)
Therefore Therefore the break-even point for the new line of guitars if the retail price is $389 will be 156 units
c. Calculation to determine the break-even point for the new line of guitars if the retail price is $309
Break-even point quantity=($14,000+$4,000+$20,000)/$309 – ($25 + $120)
Break-even point quantity= $38,000 / $309 - $145
Break-even point quantity= $38,000 / $164
Break-even point quantity= 231.71
Break-even point quantity = 232 units (Approximately)
Therefore the break-even point for the new line of guitars if the retail price is $309 will be 232 units
d. Calculation to determine what will its profit be
if Washburn achieves the sales target of 2,000 units at the $349 retail price
Using this formula
Profit = Total revenue – Total cost
Profit= (P x Q) – [FC + (UVC x Q)]
Let plug in the formula
Profit= ($349 x 2000) – [$38,000 + ($145 x 2,000)]
Profit= $698,000 – $328,000
Profit= $370,000
Therefore the profit will be $370,000
Swift Motor Lines has a delivery truck that cost $11,000, and has $1,000 of accumulated depreciation. What is the fair market value of the truck
Answer: Information is not sufficient to answer.
Explanation:
The fair market value of a fixed asset is the current value in the market of the fixed asset. Given that we do not know the current market value as it is not given in the question, we are unable to answer this question.
If the question had asked to calculate the net book value then we would have simply subtracted the accumulated depreciation from the cost price but this is a fair market value question so its different.

Milltown Company specializes in selling used cars. During the month, the dealership sold 32 cars at an average price of $16,000 each. The budget for the month was to sell 30 cars at an average price of $17,000. Compute the dealership's sales price variance for the month.
Answer:
-$32,000
Explanation:
The sales price variance is a measure used determine the difference between an entity's expected price of a product or service and its actual sales price. It may be favorable or unfavourable to the company and may be calculated as
Sales price variance = Actual quantity sold * (actual selling price - budgeted selling price)
Hence given that the dealership sold 32 cars at an average price of $16,000 each while the budget was to sell 30 cars at an average price of $17,000,
Sales price variance = 32 ($16,000 - $17,000)
= -$32,000
The minus indicates unfavourable sales price variance
