Suppose that a worker in agland can produce either 10 units of organic grain or 2 units of incense per year, and a worker in zenland can produce either 5 units of organic grain or 15 units of incense per year. there are 20 workers in agland and 10 workers in zenland. currently the two countries do not trade. agland produces and consumes 100 units of grain and 20 units of incense per year. zenland produces and consumes 50 units of grain and no incense per year. if each country made the decision to specialize in producing the good in which it has a comparative advantage, then the combined yearly output of the two countries would increase by a. 30 units of grain and 100 units of incense. b. 30 units of grain and 150 units of incense. c. 50 units of grain and 90 units of incense. d. 50 units of grain and 130 units of ince

Nichols inc. manufactures remote controls. currently the company uses a plantminuswide rate for allocating manufacturing overhead. the plant manager is considering switchingminusover to abc costing system and has asked the accounting department to identify the primary production activities and their cost drivers which are as follows: activities cost driver allocation rate material handling number of parts $5 per part assembly labor hours $20 per hour inspection time at inspection station $10 per minute the current traditional cost method allocates overhead based on direct manufacturing labor hours using a rate of $20 per labor hour. what are the indirect manufacturing costs per remote control assuming an method is used and a batch of 10 remote controls are produced? the batch requires 100 parts, 5 direct manufacturing labor hours, and 3 minutes of inspection time.

This exercise illustrates that poor quality can affect schedules and costs. a manufacturing process has 130 customer orders to fill. each order requires one component part that is purchased from a supplier. however, typically, 3% of the components are identified as defective, and the components can be assumed to be independent. (a) if the manufacturer stocks 130 components, what is the probability that the 130 orders can be filled without reordering components? (b) if the manufacturer stocks 132 components, what is the probability that the 130 orders can be filled without reordering components? (c) if the manufacturer stocks 135 components, what is the probability that the 130 orders can be filled without reordering components?
