A strawberry growing company is deciding its production and sale plan for the national and international markets.The sale price for each ton of strawberry depends on the quantity offered in the market. If x1 tons is offered for the domestic market, the sale price will be (30 - x1) CU / ton, while if x2 tons is offered for the international market, the sale price will be (40 - x2) CU / ton.The cost for each ton of strawberry for the domestic market is 10 MU, while for the international market it is 15 MU.The company has the capacity to produce up to 10 tons of strawberries for sale and according to SAG restrictions, it must dedicate at least 10% of production to the international market.For technical production reasons, the company must additionally satisfy the following restriction: x12 + x22 ≤64.d) There is the option of buying new machinery to increase the production capacity of the company. In what range should the new machine increase production capacity to suit the company? How…

The management of First American Bank was concerned about the potential loss that might occur in the event of a physical catastrophe such as a power failure or a fire. The bank estimated that the loss from one of these incidents could be as much as $100 million, including losses due to interrupted service and customer relations. One project the bank is considering is the installation of an emergency power generator at its operations headquarters. The cost of the emergency generator is $800,000, and if it is installed, no losses from this type of incident will be incurred. However, if the generator is not installed, there is a 10% chance that a power outage will occur during the next year. If there is an outage, there is a .05 probability that the resulting losses will be very large, or approximately $80 million in lost earnings. Alternatively, it is estimated that there is a .95 probability of only slight losses of around $1 million. Using decision tree analysis, determine whether the…
Product X is sold for $500 per unit. The total cost of production per year, including capital recovery and a return, is given by the expression TC = 0.04n3 − 700n + 50, 000 where n is the number of units sold. If TC represents the total of all fixed and variable costs, determine the following: a. The value of n that maximizes profit. b. The maximum profit for a year. c. The fixed cost per year.
Sally Statistics is implementing a system of statistical process control (SPC) charts in her factory in an effort to reduce the overall cost of scrapped product. The current cost of scrap is $X per month. If a 75% learning curve is expected in the use of the SPC charts to reduce the cost of scrap, what would the percentage reduction in monthly scrap cost be after the charts have been used for 6 months? (Hint: Model each month as a unit of production.)
A company has established that the relationship between the sales price for one of its products and the quantity sold per month is approximately p = 79 – 0.11D units. The fixed cost is $800 per month and the variable cost $33 per unit produced. What number of units, D*,should be produced per month and sold to maximize the profit per month related to the product? Round your answer to 2 decimal places.
A company has determine the price and the monthly demand of its products are related by the equation D= √400-p where p is the price per unit in dollar and D is the monthly demand. The associated fixed costs are $1,125 per month and the variable costs are $100/unit. Use this information to answer the following: What is the optimal number of units that should be produced and sold each month? Determine the value of D that represents the break-even point?
At the beginning of the year, managers at King Industries estimated $420000 in manufacturing overhead, 20000 direct labor hours and 50000 machine hours. Actual manufacturing costs at the end of the year were $425000 in manufacturing overhead. During the year, 22000 direct labor hours and 47000 machine hours were incurred. If overhead is applied based on direct labor hours, what is the predetermined overhead rate for the coming year? $21.00 per direct labor hour $8.40 per direct labor hour $19.09 per direct labor hour $9.04 per direct labor hour
Ella Co. uses a predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours to apply manufacturing overhead to jobs. For the month of October, Ella's estimated manufacturing overhead cost was P300,000 based on an estimated activity level of 100,000 direct labor-hours. Actual overhead amounted to P325,000 with actual direct labor-hours totaling 110,000 for the month. How much was the overapplied or underapplied overhead? Answer Format: 1,000 overapplied or 1,000 underapplied

Need complete solution. A company produces and sells a consumer product and thus far has been able to control the volume of the product by varying the selling price. The company is seeking to maximize its net profit. It has been concluded that the relationship between price and demand, per month, is approximately D = 500 - 5p, where p is the price per unit in dollars. The fixed cost is $1,000 per month, and the variable cost is $20 per unit. Obtain the answer mathematically to the following questions: a.What is the optimal number of units that should be produced and sold per month? b. What is the maximum profit per month? c.What are the breakeven sales quantities and the range of profitable demand volume?
The cumulative average labor hours to assemble the first five units of product A was 15.901 hours. If the learning curve, based on the previous experience with similar products, is 85%, what is the estimated time (labor hours) that will be required to assemble the 15th unit? The number of labor hours required to assemble the 15th unit is ? hours. (Round to one decimal place.)
