K Suppose that production of 1 unit of mining requires 3/5 unit of mining, 1/5 unit of manufacturing, and 1/5 unit of communication. To produce 1 unit of manufacturing requires 1/5 unit of mining, 2/5 unit of manufacturing, and 2/5 unit of communication. To produce 1 unit of communication requires 0 units of mining, 4/5 unit of manufacturing, and 1/5 unit of communication. Find the ratio of the three commodities in the closed model. The ratio is units of mining to every 8 units of manufacturing and units of communication.

Atlanta Systems produces two different products, Product A, which sells for $450 per unit, and Product B, which sells for $800 per unit, using three different activities: Design, which uses Engineering Hours as an activity driver; Machining, which uses machine hours as an activity driver; and Inspection, which uses number of batches as an activity driver. The cost of each activity and usage of the activity drivers are as follows: Usage by Product A Usage by Product B Cost Design (Engineering Hours) Machining (Machine Hours) Inspection (Batches) $ 190,000 $1,800,000 $ 108 142 2,160 2,840 160,000 42 38 8 Atlanta manufactures 12,500 units of Product A and 10,200 units of Product B per month. Each unit of Product A uses $100 of direct materials and $45 of direct labor, while each unit of Product B uşes $140 of direct materials and $75 of direct labor.

Suppose that the total cost of manufacturing x units of a metal straws is C(x) = 2x² + 6x + 12. Using the linear approximation p(x) of C(x) about x = 20, approximate the cost of manufacturing 21 units of metal straws. Compare this with the exact cost of manufacturing 21 units of metal straws. Using the same p(x) about x = 20, approximate the cost of manufacturing 22 units of metal straws and compare this with the exact cost. What do you observe about approximations p(21) and p(22) relative to C(21) and C(22), respectively?
1.A: TRUE FALSE The suitable cost unit for electricity is Kilowatt Hours Cost centers are a quantitative unit of product or services to which cost can be related. Variable cost is the cost that changes as the level of output changes. Cost involved in creating, testing and developing product is classified as research development cost.
