Answer:
The delivery cycle time was 25.2 hours
Explanation:
Working notes:
Consider the following formula to solve the exercise
delivery cycle time=Wait time+Process time+Inspection time+Move time+Queue time
=(12.7+1.8+0.2+4.4+6.1)
which is equal to = 25.2 hours.
The question is reproduced in the table below for clarity
Oven Contribution
Hours Required Margin Per Unit
Muffins 0.2 $4
Coffee Cakes 0.3 $5
Answer:
Total contribution margin = $ 60,000.00
Explanation:
<em>When a business is faced with a problem of shortage of a resource which can be used to produced more than one product type, to maximize the use of the resource , the business should allocate it for production purpose in such a way that it maximizes the contribution per unit of the scare resource.</em>
Therefore Crane Company should alocate the oven hours to maximise the contribution per unit of oven hour. This is done as follows:
Step 1
<em>Calculate he contribution per oven hour and rank the product</em>
cont/hr ranking
Muffin $4/0.2 hour = 20 <em> 1st</em>
Coffee cakes $5/0.3 hour= 16.67 2nd
<em>Because Muffin generates the highest contribution per hour of Oven, Crane should allocate all the resource to it</em>
Step 2
<em>Calculate the Total contribution from the production of Muffin</em>
Total contribution margin = 20 per her × 3000
= $ 60,000.00
Answer:
The Earned Income credit
Explanation:
Many economists choose the earned income credit (EIC) over the increase in minimum wage because it avoids deadweight losses. Deadweight losses results when supply are demand are not in equilibrium (Market Inefficiency). Increases in minimum wages invariably leads to increase in prices of market goods which are overpriced. This leads to market Inefficiency.
So in trying to help low income earners, many economists choose the EIC over just increasing minimum wage.
The earned Income Credit helps certain tax payers with low incomes from work in a particular tax year. It reduces the amount of tax owed and may result in a refund to the tax payers if the amount of credit is greater than the amount of tax owed.

Answer:
23.07%
Explanation:
For computing the inflation rate first we have to determine the price index for 2011 which is shown below:
Price index for 2011 is
= (market basket of goods and services cost in year 2011) ÷ (market basket of goods and services cost in year 2009) × 100
= ($160) ÷ ($130) × 100
= 123.07%
Now the inflation rate is
= (Price index for 2011 - price index for 2009) ÷ (price index for 2009) × 100
= (123.07 - 100) ÷ (100) × 100
= 23.07%
And, the price index for 2009 is
= ($130) ÷ ($130) × 100
= 100%
