Suppose that a company needs 1,500,000 items during a year and that preparation for each production run costs $900. Suppose also that it costs $22 to produce each item and $3 per year to store an item. Use the inventory cost model to find the number of items in each production run so that the total costs of production and storage are minimized.

Fern corporation manufacturers a single product that has a selling price of $20.00 per unit. fixed expenses total $48,000 per year, and the company must sell 6,000 units to break even. if the company has a target profit of $14,000, sales in units must be:

What two things do you consider when evaluating the time value of money

Solomon chemical company makes three products, b7, k6, and x9, which are joint products from the same materials. in a standard batch of 320,000 pounds of raw materials, the company generates 70,000 pounds of b7, 150,000 pounds of k6, and 100,000 pounds of x9. a standard batch costs $3,840,000 to produce. the sales prices per pound are $10, $14, and $20 for b7, k6, and x9, respectively. (a) allocate the joint product cost among the three final products using weight as the allocation base. (b) allocate the joint product cost among the three final products using market value as the allocation base. (c) allocate the joint product cost among the three final products using weight as the allocation base.
