Partan castings must implement a manufacturing process that reduces the amount of particulates emitted into the atmosphere. two processes have been identified that provide the same level of particulate reduction. the first process is expected to incur $ 140 comma 000 of fixed cost and add $ 60 of variable cost to each casting spartan produces. the second process has fixed costs of $ 100 comma 000 and adds $ 70 of variable cost per casting. a. what is the break-even quantity beyond which the first process is more attractive?

Suppose someone wants to sell a piece of land for cash. the selling of a piece of land represents turning econ

The assumptions of the production order quantity model are met in a situation where annual demand is 3650 units, setup cost is $50, holding cost is $12 per unit per year, the daily demand rate is 10 and the daily production rate is 100. the production order quantity for this problem is approximately:

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.
