Body work Paint
Car (hrs) (hrs)
A 10 2
B 5 4
C 7 5
D 3 6
E 1 7

Where in the optimum sequence should car A be scheduled?
a. first
b. second
c. third
d. fourth
e. fifth

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

e. fifth

Explanation:

Car A should be scheduled as fifth in the sequence to repair and repaint. The Car A will take 10 hours for repair work which is highest of all other cars. The paint work is however lower than all other cars but since the repair work is to be done prior to repainting the car A should be schedule in the last.

The variable costs are: direct materials $5/unit, direct labor $2/unit, and variable overhead $1/unit. Compute the profit margin per unit of product X Group of answer choices $10 per unit $10.75 per unit $12 per unit $13 per unit $2 per unit

Answers

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Given that;

Price per unit = $20

Direct labor cost = $2

Direct material cost = $5

Overhead cost = $1

Fixed overhead allocation= $5 per direct labor cost = $5 × $2 = $10

Total expenses = $2 + $5 + $1 + $10 = $18

Therefore , profit margin

= Price per unit - Total expenses

= $20 - $18

= $2

A new strip mall is being considered and the developers want to determine how many parking spaces there should be. It is assumed that if the lot is full, an arriving car will leave. Cars arrive at a rate of 15/hour. The average time a customer spends shopping is 30 minutes. Assume the interarrival times and the shopping times are exponentially distributed. Assume the average shopper purchases $150 worth of merchandise and also assume the mall is open 12 hours/day, 350 days/year.
a) If there are 10 spaces, determine the throughput rate of cars departing after completing shopping, the expected number of cars in the parking lot and the rate of lost revenue due to cars leaving because they could not find a space to park.
b) Assume the cost to create a parking spot is $2500. Assuming a 5 year horizon and an internal interest rate of 15%, how many spots should be built to minimize the combined construction and lost revenue costs?

Answers

Answer:

The responses to the given question can be defined as follows:

Explanation:

For point a:

Car arrival time[tex]= \frac{15}{hour}[/tex]

Each car arrives at an interval of time of [tex]\frac{60}{15} = 4\ minutes[/tex]

process time [tex]=0.5 \ hour[/tex]

The number of vehicles moving in an hour equals 2 per hour.

As [tex]\frac{15}{2}[/tex] is greater than 1. The device will not work, resulting in such a revenue loss.

Within 44 minutes, a parking lot would be completely full, with only 1 person being serviced, and then the next empty slot would be completed 64 minutes later.

The system's production capacity is 8.5 per hour [a person entering at 0 will exit at 30]. The person that comes in at 4 will leave at 34. Roughly 50 customers would be supported for an hour.

For point b:

The number of customers would be [tex]= 8.5 \times 12 = 102[/tex] for a 12-hour time frame.

Total cost=[tex]12\times 150 = \$1800[/tex]

The total number of customers to be served at an expense of [tex]2500= \frac{2500}{150} = 18[/tex] customers.

g Assume you just purchased 100 shares of Apple stocks at $300. You are worrying that the competition from other tablet PC and smart phone producers will have a negative impact on Apple stock prices in 1 month. Generally speaking, you are still quite bullish on Apple stock. In order to hedge against this downside risk, you establish a protective put position by buying a put option contract with around 1-month maturity on Apple stock. However, the premium of the put option with strike price at $300 is $12, which is quite expensive. If you feel purchasing the put option with strike price at $300 and $12 premium is too expensive, what else can we do to reduce the cost of protective put position

Answers

Answer:

Buy at a lower strike put option or sell at a higher call option

Explanation:

100 shares of apple stock bought at $300

premium of put option ( cost ) = $12

Put option = $300

What can be done to reduce the cost of protective put position

To reduce the cost we can either buy at a lower strike put option or sell at a higher call option

Buying at a lower strike put option price ( < $300 )

This way premium will be reduced but this will not hedge against small fall in price

Sell at a higher call option

This way the premium charged will be reduced but if the price rises above the entry price on expiration then the gains made above the price will be foregone .

When a tariff is lifted, the price of the good or service usually decreases, which increases consumer surplus. Consumers are able to purchase the same goods and services for a lower price, which results in a larger consumer surplus.

The price of the good or service usually decreases, which decreases producer surplus. Producers receive a lower price for the same goods and services, which results in a smaller producer surplus.

The government no longer receives revenue from that tax. Therefore, government revenue decreases when a tariff is lifted. The market becomes more efficient as the price of the good or service decreases, this leads to a decrease in deadweight loss.

Hence, the correct option is 4.

The scenario raises an important ethical concern. The suggestion to cancel all policies in the inner city area and shift focus to more affluent subdivisions of the city indicates a potential discriminatory practice. By selectively serving only the more affluent areas and abandoning the inner-city area, the company would be engaging in redlining, which is the unfair practice of denying or limiting services based on geographical location or socioeconomic factors.

This action perpetuates social and economic disparities, further marginalizing an already disadvantaged community. Such a decision based on financial considerations without considering the impact on the affected community raises significant ethical concerns.

The project should not be accepted because the NPV is negative

Explanation:

Net present value is the present value of after-tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.  

NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator  

Only projects with a positive NPV should be accepted. A project with a negative NPV should not be chosen because it isn't profitable.  

because it is the most profitable.

Cash flow in year 0 = $275,000 + $100,000 = $-375,000

Cash flow in year 1 = $ 120,000

Cash flow in year 2 = $ 120,000

Cash flow in year 3 = $ 120,000 - $40,000 = $80,000

Cash flow in year 4 = $ 120,000 + $65,000 = $185,000

I = 20%

NPV = $-56,153.55

The project should not be accepted because the NPV is negative

To find the NPV using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.  

3. Press compute  

In late​ 2018, malnutrition was widespread in Venezuela. Writing in an opinion column in the New York Times​, Javier Corrales​ argued, "The government is making the crisis worse by...imposing more price​ controls." ​Source: Javier​ Corrales, "The Venezuelan Crisis Is Part of​ Maduro's Plan," New York Times​, September​ 25, 2018. ​Shouldn't price controls help reduce malnutrition by lowering the price of food so more people can afford​ it? A. No. Price controls are intended exclusively to help support farmers to ensure that they are receiving a high enough price for their products to be able to keep supplying food. B. No. Imposing a price control below the equilibrium price in a market causes the quantity of the good available to consumers to fall because sellers will supply a smaller​ quantity, thereby causing some consumers to go without food that they would have been able to buy in the absence of the price control. C. Yes. Price​ controls, by​ definition, will always help reduce malnutrition by lowering the price of food so more people can afford it. D. No. Imposing a price control above the equilibrium price in a market causes the quantity of the good available to consumers to fall because sellers will supply a smaller​ quantity, thereby causing some consumers to go without food that they would have been able to buy in the absence of the price control.

Answers

Answer: B. No. Imposing a price control below the equilibrium price in a market causes the quantity of the good available to consumers to fall because sellers will supply a smaller​ quantity, thereby causing some consumers to go without food that they would have been able to buy in the absence of the price control.

Explanation:

If price controls are introduced below the equilibrium price in the market, farmers or sellers will supply less to the market because they will not be incentivized to produce more seeing as they are not making what they should be making.

This, coupled with increased demand on account of food being cheaper, will lead to shortages which would mean that those that could have been able to afford the food at the equilibrium price would not be able to access food leading to even worse food shortages.

a. How can increases in government spending crowd out investment spending? An increase in government spending increases the use of automatic stabilizers, which reduces private investment spending. causes firms to worry about inflation, which reduces private investment spending. increases the real interest rate, which reduces private investment spending. lowers the real interest rate, which reduces private investment spending. b. Is crowding out a major concern when actual output is below potential output? Why? Crowding out is a major concern, because the goal is always to increase investment spending. is not a major concern, because the Fed will likely lower the real interest rate when actual output is far below potential. is a major concern, because the crowding out effect will outweigh the increase in government spending. is not a major concern, because the Fed will likely raise the real interest rate when actual output is above potential output.

Answers

Answer:

         a.  increases the real interest rate, which reduces private investment spending.

        b.  is not a major concern, because the Fed will likely lower the real interest rate when actual output is far below potential.

Explanation:

Increase in government spending means that the government would probably have to borrow money from the credit market. Because the government is so large, it will borrow in large amounts which would force rates to rise. At these higher rates, the private sector might find it too expensive to borrow money and so would be crowed out such that they reduce their investment spending.

When the economy is facing an output that is lower than potential, the Fed will engage in monetary policy aimed at reducing interest rates to improve investment spending. This therefore negates the effect of crowing out which means that it would no longer be a major concern.

Consider a bond selling at par with modified duration of 12 years and convexity of 265. A 1% decrease in yleld would cause the price to Increase by 12%, according to the duration rule. What would be the percentage price change according to the duration- with-convexity rule?
a. 21.2%
b. 13.3%
c. 25.4%
d. 17.0%

Answers

Answer:

b. 13.3%

Explanation:

Calculation to determine What would be the percentage price change according to the duration- with-convexity rule

Using this formula formula

∆P/P = -D*∆y + (1/2) * Convexity * (∆y)^2

Let plug in the formula

∆P/P = -12 * -.01 + (1/2) * 265 * (.01)^2

∆P/P = .12 + .01325

∆P/P = .13325*100

∆P/P=13.3%

Therefore What would be the percentage price change according to the duration- with-convexity rule is 13.3%
