Answer:
c. A credit to Earned Fees for $1,000.
Explanation:
As for the information provided, we know
Unearned income is an income account, and therefore, will be credited at the time of recording.
Further, it is told that as on 31 December, 2009 out of the total unearned income of $1,500, $1,000 is earned.
Since it is earned it has to be accounted in current year, for this earned income will be credited and unearned income will be reversed for the amount of earned income that is for $1,000.
If the interest rate is 3% and a total of $4,370.91 will be paid to you at the end of 3 years, what is the present value of the sum

= $3,800 + 65,800
= $69,600
The other costs which are given in the question are not considered in the computation part. Hence, we ignored that cost.
Consider the following events: A petty cash fund of $200 was established on April 1, Year 1. Employees were reimbursed when they presented petty cash vouchers to the petty cash custodian. On April 30, Year 1, the petty cash fund contained vouchers totaling $196.50 plus $2.20 of currency. Required Answer the following questions: a. How did the establishment of the petty cash fund affect (increase, decrease, or have no effect on) total assets? Increase Decrease No effect
Establishing a petty cash fund results in an increase in a company's total assets. It's considered an asset because it's used to cover minor business expenses. However, it does not provide an overall increase in total assets, as it is a re-allocation from existing assets (e.g. bank account).
Explanation:When the petty cash fund was established, it increased total assets. The establishment of a petty cash fund is a financial transaction involving cash - an asset. When the fund was set up with $200, that amount was taken from another asset account (potentially a bank account) and transferred into the petty cash fund, essentially relocating these assets instead of creating or losing them. However, total assets remain the same because one asset (bank account balance) was reduced while another asset (petty cash) was increased.
The scenario provided about Singleton Bank and Hank's Auto Supply shows that deposits and loans are both assets, deposits for the depositor and loans for the bank. The bank expects to earn interest from the loan, hence, it is an asset. Similarly, the petty cash fund in a company is considered an asset because the company can use it to pay for small business expenses.

You work as an assistant coach on the university basketball team and earn $11 per hour. One day, you decide to skip the hour-long practice and go to the local carnival instead, which has an admission fee of $8. The total cost (valued in dollars) of skipping practice and going to the carnival (including the opportunity cost of time) is
Answer:
$19 plus additional $11 per hour if you decide to stay longer in the carnival.
Explanation:
The initial cost of this decision would be the 8 dollars that the entrance to the carnival costs. But because an opportunity cost was incurred (failing to receive the income generated as a coach in the basketball team) so the opportunity cost is 11 dollars, this added to the cost of entry gives us a Total cost of $ 19 for the decision made.

a. Foreign premium
b. Liability of foreignness
c. Liability of localization
d. International premium
Answer: Liability of foreignness
Explanation: In simple words, the extra cost incurred by a company operating in a foreign country as compared to the local companies over there is called the liability of foreignness.
In the given case, the American company incurred extra cost in china due to their lack of local knowledge and discrimination from the locals.
Thus, from the above we can conclude that Malt hanks faced liability of foreignness.
A company makes greeting cards and their research shows that that price and demand are related linearly: p = m x + b . They know that for every additional card they wish to sell they need to drop the price by $0.10. They also know that in order to sell 260 cards they need to set the price at $7. Find the linear equation relating price to demand.
Answer: p = (-0.10)x + 33
Explanation:
Given that,
p = m x + b .......(1)
Price and demand are related linearly.
m = -0.10, x = 260 and p = 7
Substituting all these in equation (1) for calculating the value of b,
7 = -0.10 × 260 + b
b = 7 + 26
b = 33
Therefore, linear equation relating price to demand is as follows:
p = (-0.10)x + 33
Final answer:
The linear equation relating price to demand for the company's greeting cards, given the decrease in price per additional card and a specific price-quantity example, is p = -0.10x + 33.
Explanation:
The question asks for the linear equation relating price to demand for a company that makes greeting cards. Given that for every additional card sold the price must decrease by $0.10, and to sell 260 cards the price is set at $7, we can use the linear equation p = mx + b. Here, m (slope) represents the change in price per card, which is -$0.10, and x represents the quantity of cards. Knowing one point on the line allows us to solve for b, the y-intercept. Substituting the values, we have 7 = -0.10(260) + b. Solving this equation for b gives us b = $33. Therefore, the linear equation relating price to demand is p = -0.10x + 33.
Suppose that a country increased its saving rate. In the long run it would have
a. higher productivity, and another unit of capital would increase output by more than before.
b. higher productivity, but another unit of capital would increase output by less than before.
c. lower productivity, and another unit of capital would increase output by more than before.
d. lower productivity, but another unit of capital would increase output by less than before.
Answer:
a. higher productivity, and another unit of capital would increase output by more than before.
Explanation:
The productivity will be higher as more saving will increase investment.
Therefore, the economy will be more productive as there is more capital per worker.
Is important to comment that due to diminished return theory each additional unit of capital would increase this productivity by a fewer amount. But, this applies on the short run, when the other factors don't change.
Therefore, option a is the correct as the capital increase is not faced agains a bottleneck of the other factor (labor, business and land)
Increasing a country's saving rate leads to higher productivity due to increase in capital stock. However, due to the law of diminishing returns, each additional unit of capital increases output less than the previous unit.
Explanation:In economic terms, if a country increases its saving rate, it suggests that more of the citizens' income is being put in savings rather than being spent on consumption. In the long run, this increased saving will lead to a rise in the capital stock, as resources that might have been used for consumption can now be invested in physical capital or human capital. This results in higher productivity as the increase in capital stock improves the ability to produce goods and services.
However, as the country accumulates more capital, it experiences what's known as the law of diminishing returns. In other words, each additional unit of capital results in less and less additional output. This is because as capital increases while keeping other factors same (like labor), it becomes more difficult to efficiently utilize the additional pieces of capitals. So, the correct answer should be: b. higher productivity, but another unit of capital would increase output by less than before.

Nonconstant Growth Stock Valuation Assume that the average firm in your company's industry is expected to grow at a constant rate of 5% and that its dividend yield is 6%. Your company is about as risky as the average firm in the industry and just paid a dividend (D0) of $3. You expect that the growth rate of dividends will be 50% during the first year (g0,1 = 50%) and 25% during the second year (g1,2 = 25%). After Year 2, dividend growth will be constant at 5%. What is the required rate of return on your company’s stock? What is the estimated value per share of your firm’s stock? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round the monetary value to the nearest cent and percentage value to the nearest whole number.
Answer:
Rate of return of the company 8.15%
Explanation:
"Do not round intermediate calculations." We will work with as many decimal as needed to provide the most accurate answer.
From the dividends yield we will calculate the Stock market price:
dividends/market price = 0.06
3/market price = 0.06
3/0.06 = market price = 100
100 is the value of the PV of all the dividends inflow
Now we will calcualte the grow in the market prce:
100 x 1.5 in the first year x 1.25 in the second = 187.5
Then, we can solve for rate using the gordon model:
D2 will be the D0 of the model
So we use Dividends for the third year.
D0 = $3
D1 = D0 x 1.5 = 3 x 1.5 = 4.5
D2 = D1 x 1.25 = 4.5x 1.25 = 5.625
D3 = 5.625 x 1.05 =5,90625
We set up the gordon formula
[tex]\frac{divends}{return-growth} = Intrinsic \: Value[/tex]
[tex]\frac{5.90625}{return-0.05} = 187.5[/tex]
[tex]\frac{5.90625}{187.5} = return - 0.05[/tex]
[tex]\frac{5.90625}{187.5} + 0.05 = return[/tex]
rate of return: 0.0815 = 8.15%

b. They are skeptical about whether global brands deliver higher-quality goods.
c. They are most likely to lead anti-globalization demonstrations.
d. They may not be able to afford, but nevertheless admire, global brands.
Answer:
c. They are most likely to lead anti-globalization demonstrations.
Explanation:
Global agnostics refers to the consumers who do not purchase the products based on global attitude towards the brands. Such consumers evaluate the brands in the same way as they evaluate the local products. In the United States and South Africa, such types of consumers are the maximum. While around the globe there is very less percentage of such consumers.
Heather deposited $1,700 at her local credit union in a savings account at the rate of 9.8% paid as simple interest. She will earn interest once a year for the next 13 years. If she were to make no additional deposits or withdrawals, how much money would the credit union owe Heather in 13 years?
Answer: $3865.8
Explanation:
The formula to find the simple interest is given by :-
[tex]I=Prt[/tex], where P is the initial amount deposited , r is the rate of interest in decimal and t is the time period in years.
Given : P= $1700 ; r= 9.8%=0.098 ; t=13 years
Then , the simple interest earned in 13 years will be :-
[tex]I=1700\times0.098\times13=2165.8[/tex]
Now, the combined amount = P+I =$1700+$2165.8= $3865.8
Hence, the credit union would owe Heather $3865.8 in 13 years.
Answer:= $3,865.80
Explanation:
alculate the future value (FV) of the investment in 13 years as follows:
I = Interest Earned in One Year x Number of Years
= (9.8% x $1,700.00) per year x 13 years
= $2,165.80
FV n = Initial Investment (PV 0 ) + Total Interest Earned (I)
FV 13 = $1,700.00 + $2,165.80
= $3,865.80
Allison will graduate from high school next June. She has ranked her three possible post-graduation plans in the following order: (1) work for two years at a consulting job in her hometown paying $20,000 per year, (2) attend a local community college for two years, spending $5,000 per year on tuition and expenses, and (3) travel around the world tutoring a rock star’s child for pay of $5,000 per year. What is the opportunity cost of her choice?
Answer:
tutoring opportunity cost: 20,000 consulting job
consulting job opportunity cost: 5,000 + travel from tutoring
collegue: 20,000 consulting job
Explanation:
opportunity cost: cost of the best rejected project, proposal or income
income from work as a consulting job: 20,000
income from tutoring: 5,000 ( externality of travel around the world)
collegue cost of 5,000
The tutorng has an externality of travel around the world. We can measure how much Allison values that chances but it is something she will consider when picking her plan.
The opportunity cost of Allison's choice is $30,000.
Explanation:The opportunity cost of Allison's choice is the value of the next best alternative that she is giving up. In this case, her opportunity cost is the income she could have earned if she chose to work for two years at the consulting job instead of pursuing her other options.
Here's how we can calculate the opportunity cost:
Option 1: Work for two years at a consulting job = $20,000/year x 2 years = $40,000
Option 2: Attend a local community college for two years = $0 (no income)
Option 3: Travel around the world tutoring a rock star's child for two years = $5,000/year x 2 years = $10,000
Therefore, the opportunity cost of Allison's choice is $40,000 - $10,000 = $30,000.

(C) if no reversing entry was made, then we use the payable and recognize expense for the period
7,000 - 4,200 = 2,800 expense
A mini-calculator company saw its sales decrease over the last year and decided to launch a new marketing mix strategy to boost awareness and sales. One of the company’s implemented tactics was to sell its mini-calculators through Amazon. It spent $5,000 to add new colors to their product offerings and $5,000 launching a video ad campaign. After tracking its online sales metrics, it saw a leap in sales of $20,000 in three months. What is this company's ROI on their marketing efforts?
Answer:
The ROI is 2
Explanation:
For computing the ROI we have to apply the formula which is shown below:
= Return in terms of benefit ÷ investment
where,
Return is in terms of sales which equals to $20,000
And, the investment equals to
= New color cost + video launching cost
= $5,000 + $5,000
= $10,000
Now put these values to the above formula
So, the answer would be equal to
= $20,000 ÷ $10,000
= 2
Final answer:
The Company's invested $10,000 in its marketing strategy. With a $20,000 increase in sales, this leads to a net profit of $10,000 and an ROI of 100%.
Explanation:
To calculate the Return on Investment (ROI) for the mini-calculator company’s marketing efforts, one must look at the net profit from the marketing strategy and compare it to the cost of that strategy. The company spent a total of $10,000 on adding new colors and launching a video ad campaign. It saw an increase in sales of $20,000 over three months as a direct result of these marketing efforts. To calculate ROI, we subtract the total marketing costs from the increased sales to find the net profit, which is then divided by the total marketing costs and multiplied by 100 to get a percentage.
First, we find the net profit from the marketing strategy: $20,000 (increase in sales) - $10,000 (total marketing costs) = $10,000 net profit. Now, we calculate the ROI: ($10,000 net profit / $10,000 total marketing costs) x 100 = 100% ROI.

1.
Compute the company’s margin, turnover, and return on investment (ROI) for last year. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)
2.
The board of directors of Joel de Paris, Inc., has set a minimum required rate of return of 21%. What was the company’s residual income last year?
Final answer:
1. Margin: 7.1%, Turnover: 714%, ROI: 12.8%. 2. Residual income: $138,180
Explanation:
1. Compute the company’s margin, turnover, and return on investment (ROI) for last year:
Margin: Margin is calculated by dividing net income by sales. In this case, the net income is $333,000 and the sales are $4,700,000. Therefore, the margin is 0.071 or 7.1%.Turnover: Turnover is calculated by dividing the cost of goods sold by the average inventory. The cost of goods sold can be calculated by subtracting the gross profit from the operating expenses. In this case, the cost of goods sold is $3,711,000 and the average inventory is ($568,000 + $471,000)/2 = $519,500. Therefore, the turnover is 7.14 or 714%.Return on Investment (ROI): ROI is calculated by dividing the net income by the total assets. In this case, the net income is $333,000 and the total assets are $2,585,000. Therefore, the ROI is 0.128 or 12.8%.2. The company’s residual income last year:
Residual income is calculated by subtracting the minimum required rate of return from the net operating income. In this case, the net operating income is $658,000 and the minimum required rate of return is 21%. Therefore, the residual income is $138,180 ([$658,000 - (0.21 * $2,505,000)].
Inventory records for Dunbar Incorporated revealed the following:

Apr. 20 Purchase 380 2.74
Dunbar sold 640 units of inventory during the month. Ending inventory assuming FIFO would be (Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest dollar amount):
A. $349.
B. $955.
C. $411.
D. $1,123.
Answer: The correct answer is "C. $411.".
Explanation: The inventory before the sale is:
Date Transaction Number of Units Unit Cost Total Cost
Apr.1 Beginning Inv. 410 $2,33 $955,30
Apr.20 Purchase 380 $2,74 $1041,20
The sale according to the FIFO (First in - First out) system would be:
Transaction Number of Units Unit Cost Total Cost
Sales 410 $2,33 $955,30
230 $2,74 $630,20
Total: $1585,50
Ending inventory is:
Number of Units Unit Cost Total Cost
150 (380-230) $2,74 $411
To calculate the ending inventory by FIFO, first deduct the no. of sold units from the beginning inventory and then remaining from the purchase inventory. Multiply the remaining units with their purchase unit cost.
Explanation:To determine the ending inventory assuming FIFO (First-In-First-Out), we need to assume the items that Dunbar Incorporated sold first were the ones they acquired first. Given the units sold are 640, these will be 410 units from the beginning inventory plus 230 out of the 380 units purchased on April 20th. To calculate the cost for this, the cost corresponding to these transactions is calculated as follows:
(410 units * $2.33) + (230 units * $2.74).
For the ending inventory, we consider the remaining inventory which is (380 purchase units - 230 sold units) * $2.74 (unit cost). This gives us the value of the ending inventory in the FIFO method.

C) The invisible hand
Explanation:
Daniel here seeking to produce and increase his welfare is "led by an invisible hand" to negotiate with his suppliers and to sell goods to his neighbors in a way that everybody is better off as a result from these transactions.
This is also a clear example to what Adam Smith was referring to the invisible hand:
"in such a manner as its produce may be of the greatest value, he intends only his own gain, and he is in this, as in many other cases, led by an invisible hand to promote an end which was no part of his intention. Nor is it always the worse for the society that it was not part of it. By pursuing his own interest he frequently promotes that of the society more effectually than when he really intends to promote it. " Adam Smith, The Wealth of Nations, Book 4, Chapter 2

est Co. recorded the following inventory information during the month of February: Units Unit cost Total cost Units on Hand Balance on 2/1 800 $2 $1,600 800 Purchased on 2/8 1,000 $3 $3,000 1,800 Sold on 2/14 1,500 300 Purchased on 2/17 2,000 $1 $2,000 2,300 Sold on 2/23 1,600 700 Purchased on 2/28 800 $4 $3,200 1,500 West uses the LIFO method to cost inventory. What amount should West report as inventory at the end of February under each of the following methods of recording inventory
Answer:
period: 3,700
perpetual: 4,200
Explanation:
periodic system:
available goods:
800 + 1000 + 2000 + 800 = 4,600
sales: 1,500 + 1,600 = 3,100
ending inventory 1,500 units
under LIFO we sale the newest units first so the ending inventory is compose of the beginning inventory + oldest purchase:
ending inventory 1,500
beginning inventory (800)
from purchase 700
Ending inventory valuation:
800 x 2 + 700 x 3 = 1,600 + 2,100 = $3,700
Perpetual System:
We evaluate after each sale so:
inventory available at first sale:
beginning 800
2/8 purchase 1,000
sale for (1,500)
ending inventory 300 units of beginning inventory
inventory available at second sale:
beginning 300 units
2/17 purchase 2,000
Sales for (1,600) units
ending inventory:
beginning 300 units x 2 = 600
2/17 purchase 400 units x 1 = 400
+ 2/28 purchase 800 units x 4 = 3,200
total valuation 4,200

Ruff, Inc. makes dog food out of chicken and grain. Chicken has 10 grams of protein and 5 grams of fat per ounce, and grain has 2 grams of protein and 2 grams of fat per ounce. A bag of dog food must contain at least 226 grams of protein and at least 166 grams of fat. If chicken costs 11¢ per ounce and grain costs 1¢ per ounce, how many ounces of each should Ruff use in each bag of dog food to minimize cost? HINT [See Example 4.] (If an answer does not exist, enter DNE.)
Answer: Ruff, Inc., should use 0 oz of chicken and 113 oz grain.
Explanation:
Given that,
Chicken:
10 grams of protein
5 grams of fat per ounce
Grain:
2 grams of protein
2 grams of fat per ounce
Chicken costs = 11¢ per ounce
Grain costs = 1¢ per ounce
Let x be chicken and y be grain
Objective is to minimize 11x +y
subject to
10x +2y ≥ 226
5x + 2y ≥ 166
Solving these two equations, we get,
point (1)- (12, 53) and two corner solution
(2)- (0,113)
(3)- (33.2,0)
Price of 1) = 12 × 11 + 53 × 1 = 185
Price of 2) = 0 ×11 + 113 × 1 = 113
Price of 3) = 33.2 × 11 + 0 × 1 = 365.2
Therefore, Ruff, Inc., should use 0 oz of chicken and 113 oz grain.
To minimize cost, we need to set up a system of equations based on the requirements for protein and fat in the dog food and use a graphing calculator to find the point with the lowest cost.
Explanation:To minimize cost, we need to set up a system of equations based on the requirements for protein and fat in dog food. Let's use x to represent the number of ounces of chicken and y to represent the number of ounces of grain used in each bag of dog food.
The total protein in the dog food can be calculated as 10x + 2y, and the total fat can be calculated as 5x + 2y. We can set up inequalities based on the minimum protein and fat requirements: 10x + 2y ≥ 226 and 5x + 2y ≥ 166.
We also need to consider the cost. The cost of chicken is 11 cents per ounce and the cost of grain is 1 cent per ounce. The total cost can be calculated as 11x + y. To minimize cost, we can use a graphing calculator to find the feasible region and locate the point with the lowest cost.

Billy’s Exterminators, Inc., has sales of $592,000, costs of $284,000, depreciation expense of $36,000, interest expense of $28,000, a tax rate of 35 percent, and paid out $40,000 in cash dividends. The firm has 80,000 shares of common stock outstanding. What are the earnings per share?
Answer:
EPS = $1.9825
Explanation:
EPS (earnings per share) = Net Income / shares of common stock outstanding
Income before taxes = $592,000 - $284,000 - $36,000 - $28,000 = $244,000
Tax = $244,000 x 35% = $85,400
Net Income = $244,000 - $85,400 = $158,600
EPS = $158,600 / 80,000 = $1.9825

Suppose a firm produces a PERISHABLE good: produces $10 million worth of final goods only sells $9 million worth $1 million worth of final goods spoils Does this violate the expenditure = output identity?
Answer:
No
Explanation:
This does not violate the expenditure = output identity because this idenity says that goods-in-stock /unsold goods produced and ready for sale but not yet sold (inventory) are also a part of output, which if sold in the next accounting period, would still be calculated as sale in the current period, since it is the sale of output produced in the current year.
The scenario does not violate the expenditure = output identity because the value of spoiled goods is included in the output but not in the expenditures.
In national accounting, the total value of final goods produced (output) includes both sold and unsold goods. Thus, the firm produces $10 million worth of goods, of which $9 million is sold, and $1 million spoils. The spoiled goods are part of the output but are not reflected in the expenditure, maintaining the identity.
Output includes all produced final goods, sold or not.Expenditure accounts for the actual sales.Spoiled goods are counted in output but not in expenditure.This ensures that the accounting identity holds true as output still equals the sum of expenditures and unsold (including spoiled) goods.
The super prize in a contest is $10 million. This prize will be paid out in equal yearly payments over the next 20 years. If the prize money is guaranteed by AAA bonds yielding 4% and is placed into an escrow account when the contest is announced 1 year before the first payment, how much do the contest sponsors have to deposit in the escrow account? (Round your answer to the nearest cent.)
Answer:
contest sponsors have to deposit $6795163.17 in the escrow account
Explanation:
given data
amount = $10 million
time = 20 year
rate = 4 %
to find out
how much do the contest sponsors have to deposit in the escrow account
solution
we know Cash flow per period = 10000000/20 = $500000
we will apply here future value formula to find amount
future value = cash flow × [tex]\frac{1-(1+r)^{-t}}{r}[/tex]
here r is rate and t is time
put here value
future value = 500000 × [tex]\frac{1-(1+0.04)^{-20}}{0.04}[/tex]
future value = 6795163.1724
so contest sponsors have to deposit $6795163.17 in the escrow account
The contest sponsors have to deposit $13,589,000 in the escrow account.
Explanation:To calculate how much the contest sponsors have to deposit in the escrow account, we need to find the present value of the $10 million prize that will be paid out over 20 years. Since the prize is guaranteed by AAA bonds yielding 4%, we can use the present value formula for an annuity:
PV = PMT * [(1 - (1 + r)^-n) / r]
PV = $10,000,000 * [(1 - (1 + 0.04)^-20) / 0.04] = $10,000,000 * [(1 - 0.4564) / 0.04] = $10,000,000 * [0.5436 / 0.04] = $13,589,000
Therefore, the contest sponsors have to deposit $13,589,000 in the escrow account.

The CPI is more commonly used as a gauge of inflation than the GDP deflator is because...
a. the CPI better reflects the goods and services bought by consumers.
b. the GDP deflator cannot be used to gauge inflation.
c. the CPI is calculated more often than the GDP deflator is.
d. the CPI is easier to measure
Answer:
I think answer the gDp deflator cannot be used to gauge inflation
The CPI is favored over the GDP deflator for gauging inflation because it more closely reflects the consumer spending on goods and services, representing the cost of living experienced by individuals.So,option a is correct.
The CPI (Consumer Price Index) is more commonly used as a gauge of inflation than the GDP deflator because a. the CPI better reflects the goods and services bought by consumers. The CPI is designed to measure the average price changes of a basket of goods and services typically purchased by urban consumers, which aligns closely with the general cost of living and consumer spending patterns. Unlike the CPI, the GDP deflator includes all new, domestically produced, final goods and services in an economy, regardless of whether they are purchased by consumers or not, such as investment goods and government services. Therefore, while the GDP deflator can serve as a measure of inflation across the entire economy, the CPI is more representative of the inflation experienced by individual consumers.
An assembly line can produce 90 units per hour. The line’s hourly cost (total salaries of workers) is $4,283 an hour (the first 8 hours). Workers are guaranteed a minimum of 6 hours (i.e., they will be paid for 6 hours per day, even if they work less than 6 hours). There is a 50% premium for overtime (i.e., salary is increased 50% during overtime hours), however, productivity for overtime drops by 7% (i.e., the number of units produced per hour drops 7%). What is the total costs if 966 units needs to be produced?
To produce 966 units, the total cost would be $56,133.825. This includes regular hours and overtime hours.
Explanation:To calculate the total cost of producing 966 units, we need to consider the regular hours and the overtime hours.
Regular hours: The assembly line can produce 90 units per hour, so it will take 966/90 = 10.73 hours to produce 966 units. Since workers are guaranteed a minimum of 6 hours, we can assume 6 hours of regular hours.
Overtime hours: The remaining 4.73 hours will be considered as overtime. Overtime salary is increased by 50%, so the hourly cost will be $4,283 * 1.5 = $6,424.5. However, productivity drops by 7%, so the assembly line will produce 90 * 0.93 = 83.7 units per hour of overtime.
Total cost: The total cost of regular hours is $4,283 * 6 = $25,698. The total cost of overtime hours is $6,424.5 * 4.73 = $30,435.825. The total cost of producing 966 units is $25,698 + $30,435.825 = $56,133.825.
