A stainless steel knife set is one item it stocks. Demand (2,400 sets per year) is relatively stable over the entire year. Whenever new stock is ordered, a buyer must ensure that numbers are correct for stock on-hand and then phone in a new order. The total cost involved to place an order is about $5. RW figures that holding inventory in stock and paying for interest on borrowed capital, insurance, and so on, add up to about $4 holding cost per unit per year.Analysis of the past data shows that the standard deviation of demand from retailers is about four units per day for a 365-day year. Lead time to get the order is seven days.What is the economic order quantity?

Answers

Answer:

Annual demand (D) = 2,400 sets

Holding cost (H) =  $4

Ordering cost (Co) =  $5

EOQ =    √2 x 2,400 x $5

                          $4

EOQ = 77 units

Explanation:

Economic order quantity(EOQ) is the square root of 2 multiplied by annual demand and ordering cost per order divided by the holding cost per item per annum. EOQ is the quantity of stock that is bought each time a replenishment order is placed.

Consider two markets: the market for coffee and the market for hot cocoa·The initial equilibrium for both markets is the same, the equilibrium price is $4.50, and the equilibrium quantity is 31.0. When the price is $9.75, the quantity supplied of coffee is 73.0 and the quantity supplied of hot cocoa is 101.0. For simplicity of analysis, the demand for both goods is the same. Using the midpoint formula, calculate the elasticity of supply for hot cocoa. Please round to two decimal places Supply in the market for coffee is O a.more elastic than supply in the market for hot cocoa O b. the same elasticity as supply in the market for hot cocoa. c. There is not enough information to tell which has a higher elasticity. d. less elastic than supply in the market for hot cocoa.

Answers

Answer:

The elasticity of supply for hot cocoa is 1.43.

(D) Supply in the market for coffee is less elastic than supply in the market for hot cocoa

Explanation:

Using the midpoint formula,

Elasticity of supply for hot cocoa = (change in quantity supplied/average quantity supplied) ÷ (change in price/average price)

change in quantity supplied = 101 - 31 = 70

average quantity supplied = (101+31)/2 = 66

70/66 = 1.06

change in price = 9.75 - 4.5 = 5.25

average price = (9.75+4.5)/2 = 7.125

5.25/7.125 = 0.74

Elasticity of supply for hot cocoa = 1.06 ÷ 0.74 = 1.43. The supply for hot cocoa is elastic because the elasticity of supply is greater than 1.

Elasticity of supply for coffee = (73 - 31)/(73+31)/2 ÷ 0.74 = 42/52 ÷ 0.74 = 0.81 ÷ 0.74 = 1.09. The supply for coffee is elastic because the elasticity of supply is greater than 1.

However, supply in the market for coffee is less elastic than supply in the market for hot cocoa because the elasticity of supply for coffee is less than that of hot coffee.

Atlantis Corporation has 13,000 shares of 14​%, $81.00 par noncumulative preferred stock outstanding and 30,000 shares of no−par common stock outstanding. At the end of the current​ year, the corporation declares a dividend of $186,000. How is the dividend allocated between preferred and common​ stockholders?

Answers

Answer:

The dividend of $147,420 is allocated to preferred stockholders

A dividend of $38,580 is allocated common stockholders

Explanation:

The preferred stock has a fixed amount of dividend which is a percentage of its  par value computed thus:

preferred dividend=13,000*$81*14%=$ 147,420.00  

However, when preferred stock dividend is taken away from the total dividends, the result is dividends for common stockholders

Common stockholders' dividends=$186,000-$147,420=$38,580.00  

The admission of a new partner to an existing partnership: a. May be accomplished only by investing assets in the partnership.
b. Causes a legal dissolution of the existing partnership.
c. Requires purchasing the interest of one or more existing partners.
d. Is almost always accompanied by the liquidation of the business.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": Causes a legal dissolution of the existing partnership.

Explanation:

A Partnership is an organization that operates a business with two or more owners. They share the profits in proportion to their partnership interest in percentage terms. There are two types of partnerships: general partnerships (unlimited liability) and limited partnerships (passive members who are responsible depending on how much money they contribute to the company).

Every time one of the partnership members passes away, retires, or another partner will be added, the existing partnership legally dissolves creating a new entity.

If a company's revenue is $530,000, profit before taxes is $98,000, and product costs are $390,000 then:a)The company's gross margin totals $98,000 b)The company's period costs total $140,000. c)The company's period costs cannot be determined d)The company's contribution margin totals $140,000 e)The company's gross margin totals $140,000

Answers

Answer: Option (e) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Company's revenue = $530,000

Profit before taxes = $98,000

Product costs = $390,000

Company's gross margin = Company's revenue - Product costs

                                          = $530,000 - $390,000

                                          = $140,000

Therefore, The company's gross margin totals $140,000.
