Answer:
How someone frames an issue affects how it is seen by others and focuses their attention on specific aspects of it. Framing is the basis of approaching a particular audience to connect. Although framing seems very simple conceptually, the reality is that most people don't do it well.
Explanation:
A microwave manufacturing company has just switched to a new automated production system. Unfortunately, the new machinery has been frequently failing and requiring repairs and service. Historically, the company has been able to provide its customers with a completion time of 6 days or less. To analyze whether the completion time has increased, the production manager took a sample of 36 jobs and found that the sample mean completion time was 6.5 days with a sample standard deviation of 1.5 days. At a significance level of .10 using the critical value rule, we can show that the completion time has increased.
Required:
Indicate which test you are performing; show the hypotheses, the test statistic and the critical values and mention whether one- tailed or two-tailed.
Answer
Kindly check explanation
Explanation:
Given the following :
Sample mean (m) = 6.5
Samole standard deviation (s) = 1.5
α = 0.10
Sample size (n) = 36
μ = 6
Null : μ ≤ 6
Alternative : μ > 6
Decision region:
If Tstatistic > tα, n - 1 ; reject Null
One tailed test (right tail)
Tstatistic (t) :
(m - μ) / s/√n
(6.5 - 6) / 1.5/√36
0.5 / 0.25
= 2
tα, n - 1 = t0.1,35 ; from t table ; = 1.306
If Tstatistic > tα, n - 1 ; reject Null
2 > 1.306 ; hence reject Null

Explanation:
We discussed the debt situation in the US and referred to the 'US mysteries' . Write an essay explaining these mysteries and why, the US is in a unique position relative to the rest of world. Make sure your answer includes a discussion of exorbitant privilege and 'dark matter.' Complete your essay with a discussion of why some are worried about the sustainability of this unique position and what the consequences would be on the US economy if we lost this 'unique position.'
Answer:
The Debit situation in the US is a very unique one unlike other debit situations around the world, and this is because the US is unique it its ways of handling Debit situations and also not forgetting the fact that the US enjoys certain privileges' in its Financial dealings with others.
These privileges is evident in the Ability of US corporations/companies to have a debit of over $1.9 trillion and still able to be in business, despite this high indebtedness the US economy have witnessed a growth stability at 3% and inflation rate below2% and its unemployment rate is close to 4% making US economy the Number 1 in the world. But the consequences this might have in future for The US is that most US companies would go Bankrupt when the Government is unable to churn out good financial policies to sustain this high level of indebtedness

Harper Chicken Corporation processes and packages chicken for grocery stores. It purchases chickens from farmers and processes them into two different products: chicken drumsticks and chicken steak. From a standard batch of 25,000 pounds of raw chicken that costs $17,500, the company produces two parts: 4,400 pounds of drumsticks and 6,200 pounds of breast for a processing cost of $3,648. The chicken breast is further processed into 5,400 pounds of steak for a processing cost of $3,400. The market price of drumsticks per pound is $1.85 and the market price per pound of chicken steak is $5.40. If Harper decided to sell chicken breast instead of chicken steak, the price per pound would be $2.70.
Required:
a-1. Allocate the joint cost to the joint products, drumsticks and breasts, using weight as the allocation base.
a-2. Calculate the gross margin for each product.
a-3. If the drumsticks are producing a loss, should that product line be eliminated?
b-1. Reallocate the joint cost to the joint products, drumsticks and breasts, using relative market values as the allocation base.
b-2. Calculate the gross margin for each product.
c-1. Should Martin further process chicken breasts into chicken steak? (Use the assumption made in requirement b-1).
c-2. How would the profit be affected by your answer in c-1?
Answer:
Please see answers below
Explanation:
1a . Allocate the joint cost to the joint products
The allocation rate will be computed as follows:
Allocation cost = Total cost / Total number of pounds ( Drumstick + Breast)
= $17,500 + $3,648 / 4,400 + 6,200
= $21,148 / 10,600
= $2.0
Allocation costs of
Drumstick = Allocation rate × Drumstick
= $2.0 × 4,400
= $8,800
Chicken breast = Allocation rate × Chicken breast
= $2.0 × 6,200
= $12,400
Total cost = $8,800 + $12,400 = $21,200
2a. Market price per pound of drumstick $1.85
Market price per pound of chicken breast $2.70
The revenue for drumstick is computed as;
= 4,400 × $1.85
= $8,140
The revenue for chicken breast is computed as;
= 6,200 × $2.70
= $16,740
Compute gross margin.
Gross margin = Revenue cost - Allocation cost
Drumstick = $8,140 - $8,800 = ($660)
Chicken breast = $16,740 - $12,400 = $4,340
3a. No. This is because the drumstick can be eliminated due to the loss they are incurring, hence contribute to the total joint cost
3b. Compute reallocation rate as;
Rate = Total allocation / Total market value of drumstick + Chicken breast
= $21,200 / (4,400 × $1.85) + (6,200 × $2.7)
= $21,200 / $8,140 + $16,740
= $21,200 / $24,880
= $0.85
Compute the market cost of;
Drumstick = $0.85 × 4,400 × $1.85
= $6,919
Chicken breast = $0.85 × 6,200 × $2.70
= $14,229
3b2 Compute gross profit margin for each
Drumstick = $8,140 - $6,919
= $1,221
Chick breast = $16,740 - $14,220
= $2,520
