Normal Spoilage 80 100 100 80 80
Abnormal Spoilage 50 100 100 50 50
Equivalent Units 10630 9525
The weighted average method equivalent unit production implies that the units completed and the ending inventory completed plus any spoilage normal or abnormal is taken is accounted for.
The weighted average method EUP can also be determined by adding the beginning units and units started
The normal and abnormal spoilage are taken 100 % because all the spoilage is evident once the goods are completed.
Chin purchases five protein bars at a price of $3 each. The marginal benefit he receives from each bar is $5 for the first bar, $4.50 for the second bar, $4 for the third bar, $3.50 for the fourth bar, and $3 for the fifth bar. The marginal cost of producing the bars is $2 each. What is Chin's total consumer surplus from the five bars that he purchased
Answer:
$5
Explanation:
About 5% of hourly paid workers in a region earn the prevailing minimum wage or less. A grocery chain offers discount rates to companies that have at least 30 employees who earn the prevailing minimum wage or less. Complete parts (a) through (c) below.
a. Company A has 285 employees. What is the probability that Company A will get the discount? (Round to four decimal places as needed.)
b. Company B has 502 employees. What is the probability that Company B will get the discount? (Round to four decimal places as needed.)
c. Company C has 1033 employees. What is the probability that Company C will get the discount? (Round to four decimal places as needed.)
Answer:
a. 0.0000
b. 0.1841
c. 0.9992
Explanation:
a. n = 285
p = 5% = 0.05
μ = np = 285 x 0.05
= 14.25
we fnd the standard deviation
sd = √np(1-p)
= [tex]\sqrt{285*0.05*0.95}[/tex]
= 3.6793
we find the z score
x = 30-0.5 = 29.5
[tex]z=\frac{29.5-14.25}{3.6793} \\= 4.14[/tex]
using the microsoft excel function
1-NORMSDIST(4.14)
probability = 1 -0.999982
= 0.0000
b.
n = 502
p = 0.05
np = 502x0.05
= 25.1
sd = [tex]\sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]
= [tex]\sqrt{502*0.05*0.95} \\= 4.8831[/tex]
x = 29.5
[tex]z = \frac{29.5-25.1}{4.8831} \\= 0.90[/tex]
1 - NORMSDIST(0.90)
= 1 - 0.815939875
PROB = 0.1841
c. n = 1033
p = 0.05
np = 1033*0.05
= 51.65
sd [tex]\sqrt{np(1-p)} \\= \sqrt{1033*0.05*0.95}[/tex]
= 7.0048
x = 29.5
[tex]z=\frac{29.5-51.65}{7.0048} \\= -3.16[/tex]
probability =
1 - normsdist(-3.16)
= 1 - 0.000788846
= 0.9992
A pharmaceutical company with headquarters in India sells fluconazole, the generic version of Pfizer's anti-fungal drug Diflucan internationally for significantly less money than many U.S. generic drug manufacturers. The generic drugs industry in this country needs to rethink its
