The local supermarket buys lettuce each day to ensure really fresh produce. Each morning any lettuce that is left from the previous day is sold to a dealer that resells it to farmers who use it to feed their animals. This week the supermarket can buy fresh lettuce for $6.00 a box. The lettuce is sold for $18.00 a box and the dealer that sells old lettuce is willing to pay $3.60 a box. Past history says that tomorrow's demand for lettuce averages 254 boxes with a standard deviation of 37 boxes. How many boxes of lettuce should the supermarket purchase tomorrow? (Use Excel's NORMSINV() function to find the Z-score. Round intermediate calculations to four decimal places. Round your answer to the nearest whole number.) Number of boxes
Answer:
289 boxes
Explanation:
Calculation to determine How many boxes of lettuce should the supermarket purchase tomorrow
First step is to calculate Co using this formula
Co = buying price – discard price
Let plug in the formula
Co= 6.00 – 3.60
Co =2.40
Second step is to calculate Cu using this formula
Cu = selling price – buying price
Let plug in the formula
Cu= 18.00 − 6.00
Cu= 12.00
Third step is to calculate the Newsvendor fractile
using the formula this formula
p = Cu/(Cu + Co)
Let plug in the formula
p = (Cu/(Cu + Co))*100%
p= (12.00 / (12.00 + 2.40)) * 100%
p= (12.00 / 14.40) * 100%
p= 0.83 * 100
p= 83%
Fourth Step is to find the corresponding z value using Norm.s.inv() which gives us 0.954
Now let calculate the optimal quantity
Using this formula
Optimal quantity (Q) = Demand + std dev * z
Let plug in the formula
Q= 254 + (37* 0.954)
Q= 254+ + 35.298
Q= 289.298
Q= 289 boxes (Approximately)
Therefore How many boxes of lettuce should the supermarket purchase tomorrow is 289 boxes

a. Cash receive on Oct. 8 = $588
b. Cash receive on Oct. 16 = $1,261
c. Cash receive on Oct. 29 = $4,000
d. Cash receive on Oct. 27 = $1,176
e. Cash receive on Oct. 28 = $1,862
Explanation:
a. Oct. 8
Since cash was received within 10 days, it qualified for the stated 2% discount. Therefore, we have:
Cash receive on Oct. 8 = $600 - ($600 * 2%) = $588
b. Oct. 16
Since cash was received within 10 days, it qualified for the stated 3% discount. Therefore, we have:
Cash receive on Oct. 16 = ($1,700 - $400) - (($1,700 - $400) * 3%) = $1,261
c. Oct. 29
Since cash was received outside 10 days, it was NOT qualified for the stated 1% discount. Therefore, we have:
Cash receive on Oct. 29 = $5,000 - $1,000 = $4,000
d. Oct. 27
Since cash was received within 10 days, it qualified for the stated 2% discount. Therefore, we have:
Cash receive on Oct. 27 = ($1,400 - $200) - (($1,400 - $200) * 2%) = $1,176
e. Oct. 28

In the aftermath of the BP oil spill in 2010, the Associated Press interviewed an engineering professor at the University of California, Berkeley for his take on what could have led to such a disaster. According to this professor, the BP spill falls into the category of disasters that result when an organization, because of overconfidence and incompetence, simply ignores warning signs. Was this a rational decision
Answer:
BP Oil Spill in 2010
The decision by BP to ignore the warning signs was not a rational decision.
Explanation:
A rational decision-making process employs a structured or logical process to the act of decision-making. Its pillars include logic, objectivity, and analysis. A rational decision-making process does not favor subjectivity and individual insight but relies more on the insight obtained from data analysis. The claim of the professor is a rational one because it is based on objective evidence.

Haste Enterprises issues 20-year, $1,000,000 bonds that pay semiannual interest of $50,000. If the effective annual rate of interest is 11%, what is the issue price of the bonds? Some relevant and irrelevant present value factors: * PV of ordinary annuity of $1: n = 20; i = 11% is 7.96333 **PV of $1: n = 20; i = 11% is 0.12403 * PV of ordinary annuity of $1: n = 40; i = 5.5% is 16.04612 **PV of $1: n = 40; i = 5.5% is 0.11746 Multiple Choice $1,000,000. $919,766. $1,802,306. $992,948.
Answer: $919,766
Explanation:
The Present Value of issuance price of a bond is:
= Present value of interest payments + Present Value of par value at maturity
Present value of interest payments:
The payments are constant so this is an annuity.
Payments are semi annual so the variables should be adjusted for this.
Interest = 11%/2 = 5.5%
Number of periods = 20 * 2 = 40 semi annual periods.
Present value = Annuity * Present value of annuity factor, 5.5%, 40 periods
= 50,000 * 16.04612
= $802,306
Present value of par at maturity:
= Par value * discount factor, 5.5%, 40 years
= 1,000,000 * 0.11746
= $117,460
Issue price of bond:
= 802,306 + 117,460
= $919,766

It required 60 machine-hours. The amount of overhead applied to Job M759 is closest to: (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places).
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
With regards to the above, first we need to compute the fixed manufacturing overhead.
Fixed manufacturing overhead
= Total fixed manufacturing overhead ÷ Total machine hours
= $344,000 ÷ 40,000
= $8.6 per machine hour
Calculation of overhead applied to Job M759
Variable manufacturing overhead
= 60 machine hours × $3.9
= $234
Fixed manufacturing overhead
= 60 machine hours × $8.6
= $516
Therefore, total overhead applied to job M759 is $750

Fierce is a product of the Ferris Company. Ferris's sales forecast for Fierce is 1,150 units, and they currently have 186 units on hand. Chester wants to have an extra 10% on hand above their forecasted units in case sales are better than expected, to avoid stocking out. Taking current inventory into account, what will Fierce's Fulfillment After Adjustment have to be in order to have a 10% reserve of units available for sale
Answer:
1,079 units
Explanation:

Then, 110% will be = (1150 units/100)*110 = 1265. So, Fierce fulfillment before Adjustment is 1,265 units
Fierce fulfillment after adjustment = 1,265 units - 186 units = 1,079 units
So, Fierce's Fulfillment after adjustment have to be 1,079 units in order to have a 10% reserve of units available for sale.

In 2020, HPI estimated the following standard costs for one of their major products, the 10-gallon plastic container. Budgeted quantity Budgeted price Direct materials 0.90 pounds $60 per pound Direct labor 0.10 hours $30 per hour During June, Heavy Products produced and sold 19,000 containers using 1,200 pounds of direct materials at an average cost per pound of $63 and 17,100 direct manufacturing labor-hours at an average wage of $31.25 per hour. The direct manufacturing labor price variance during June is: $3600 unfavorable $950,400 unfavorable $21,375 unfavorable $21,375 favorable
Answer:
C. $21,375 unfavorable
Explanation:
Standard rate = $30 per hour
Actual rate = $31.25
Actual time = 17,100 direct labor hours
Direct manufacturing labor price variance= Actual time * (Standard rate - Actual rate)
= 17,100 * ($30 - $31.25)
= 17,100 * (-$1.25)
= $21,375 Unfavorable
So, the Direct manufacturing labor price variance during June is $21,375 U.

All yearly government spending is broken up into two categories; Mandatory spending which is required by law and Discretionary spending which is spending that must be approved each year by Congress.
Mandatory spending is spending that is required by current law. Most federal mandatory spending is in the form of safety net and entitlement programs, including the Food Stamp program, Social Security, Medicaid, and Medicare. Safety net programs represent “transfer payments” by which the government redistributes the income of the taxpayers by collecting taxes and providing services for those less fortunate and who do not provide any type of good or service in return. Entitlement expenditures include Medicaid and Social Security in which money that has been collected from taxpayers is then given back to those that contributed once they reach a certain age or meet other requirements. Other forms of mandatory spending include veterans benefits. For example, being a veteran means that you have already provided a service for which you were guaranteed, by law, certain benefits and payments (salary once you served your term/retirement, college benefits once you served your term, health insurance after you served your term, etc.). Because the law requires that these benefits be paid once the military personnel has served their term, these expenditures are mandatory and are automatically included in the US budget each year. The amount included for these expenditures is based on the number of citizens who “qualify” for these payments whether safety net, entitlement, or veteran benefits. Many other mandatory expenditures fall under the US budget. Over half of the entire US budget is mandatory which means that it cannot be changed without a change to the law.
About one-third of federal spending is Discretionary. This means that while this spending is for programs that are considered necessary to the operation of the US, they must be re-approved each year by Congress through a vote. The largest category of Discretionary spending is National Defense which must be approved each year. Other categories of Discretionary spending include education assistance, Interstate transportation programs, national parks, the Justice / Court system, and science, space, and technology research programs.
An appropriation is an Act which congress passes to approve discretionary spending. For example, one category of spending on education may be mandatory but congress may want to increase spending through an appropriation (or a special vote) which places the extra spending under the discretionary piece of the budget. One example of an appropriation that increased mandatory spending in the US annual budget is that of the Veteran’s Choice program. Veteran’s health benefits are required by law (they have served and part of their payment for serving is free health care after they retire). However, to receive their health benefits veterans have historically been required to utilize specific Doctors and hospitals. This is the law and therefore part of the mandatory budget. However, an appropriation was passed in 2019 which added extra funding to allow veterans to visit any Doctor they chose and be treated at any hospital of their choosing. The funding for this change is part of the discretionary budget and had to be approved by congress.

Answer:
In the decade leading up to the Great Recession, the government kept federal spending below 20% of GDP. It grew no faster than the economy, around 2% to 3% per year. During the recession, spending grew to a record 24.4% of GDP in FY 2009. This increase was due to economic stimulus and two overseas wars.3
Explanation:
At the same time, growth slowed, which reduced tax receipts. Congress worried about the ballooning U.S. debt. No one could agree on how to reduce it. As a result, Congress enacted across-the-board budget cuts, called "sequestration."4 That finally reduced spending to 20.4% of GDP in FY 2015.5
Since then, spending has crept up again despite the sequester. Congress and the president rely on deficit spending to boost economic growth.6 But deficit spending is out of control. It rises each year, even when the economy is doing well.

Comparison of two alternatives for breakeven An IE works in the automation department of a surgical equipment manufacturing company that produces specially ordered equipment for hospitals. To upgrade the quality of the assembly process of the camera used in laparoscopic surgery probes, two approaches are available: make and buy. The make alternative has an initial equipment cost of $175,000, a life of 5 years, a $25,000 salvage value, a processing cost of $3,000 per camera, and an M&O cost of $80,000. The buy alternative requires contracting the assembly operation externally at a cost of $6,750 per camera. If the MARR is 12% per year, how many cameras per year must be assembled to justify the make alternative?
Answer:
35 cameras
Explanation:
Initial equipment cost = $175,000
life span = 5 years
salvage value = $25,000
processing cost per camera = $3000
M and O cost = $80,000
cost of contracting assembly operation externally = $6,750 per camera
MARR = 12% per year
Determine the number of cameras per year to be assembled
let number of camera = n
we will make use of the relation below
EUAC of make option = 175000*(A/P,12%,5) + 3000*n + 80000 - 25000*(A/F,12%,5)
= 175000 * 0.277410 + 3000*n + 80000 - 25000*0.157410
= 132482 + 3000 n
Hence the EUAC of the alternative
= 6750 * n
∴ 6750 n = 132482 + 3000 n
n = 132482 / 3750 = 35.33 ≈ 35 Alternative cameras must be assembled

Direct costs for each department and the proportion of service costs used by the various departments for the month of July are as follows: Proportion of Services Used by: DepartmentDirect costsS1 S2 P1 P2 S1$66,000 0.70 0.10 0.20 S2$161,000 0.20 0.30 0.50 P1$166,000 P2$233,000 Under the step method of cost allocation, the amount of S2 costs allocated to S1 would be:
Answer:
$46,200
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the amount of S2 costs allocated to S1
S2 costs allocated to S1 =$66,000*0.70/(0.70 +0.10+ 0.20)
S2 costs allocated to S1 =$46,200/1.00
S2 costs allocated to S1 =$46,200
Therefore Under the step method of cost allocation, the amount of S2 costs allocated to S1 would be:$45,200
When a group of people must decide whether to buy a shared public good or service, the free-rider problem frequently occurs because:
Answer:
When a group of people must decide whether to buy a shared public good or service, the free-rider problem frequently occurs because it is usual that one of the individuals in the group benefits to a greater extent from the one who contributed at the beginning of the acquisition of the good or service. Thus, in economic terms, it obtains a profit greater than that which would correspond to it by virtue of its initial contribution.
This situation is evident in the case of public property of common use (for example, a bridge or the lights of a city), where a person who does not contribute to the acquisition or maintenance of said property (for example, an occasional traveler) can use the asset in the same way as local citizens, who do contribute to that asset. Its frequency occurs because it is impossible, in the case of public goods, for the government to control who uses and who does not use said service in an effective way.

Suppose a firm is considering investing in a new product line which they expect to be obsolete in 5 years. They will need an initial investment in inventory of 540,000. They will also need inventory investment of 95,000 each year of the project. The firm expects to recover the full amount of the investment in NWC at the end of the project. What is their NWC in year 5
Answer:
recovered net working capital at the end of the project = $1,015,000
Explanation:
initial increase in net working capital = $540,000
annual increase in net working capital = $95,000 x 5 = $475,000
cumulative increase in net working capital = $1,015,000
recovered net working capital at the end of the project = $1,015,000, assuming the company recovers it all.
If fixed costs are $270,000, the unit selling price is $70, and the unit variable costs are $45, what are the old and new break-even sales in units (rounded to a whole number) if the unit selling price increases by $6
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Fixed costs= $270,000
Unitary selling price= $70
Unit variable costs= $45
To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 270,000 / (70 - 45)
Break-even point in units= 10,800
Now, if the selling price is $76:
Break-even point in units= 270,000 / (76 - 45)
Break-even point in units= 8,710
