Response: edge computing

Clarification:

Edge computing denotes an open and decentralized IT structure that features decentralized processing capabilities and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies.

Data is processed locally by the device or server rather than being sent to a data center. This paradigm helps to position data storage and computations closer to their sources, thus conserving bandwidth and enhancing response times.

Given that the business seeks to enhance its operations by leveraging data from devices at specific locations for real-time service adjustments, the technology it would integrate with its existing Cloud solutions is edge computing.

Answer:

An increase in the price of soccer balls.

Explanation:

Soccer balls consist of polyethylene and materials derived from petroleum. An escalation in oil prices will directly raise the costs of soccer balls since the expense of the raw materials has increased.

Kayaks also utilize materials sourced from oil, which is why their prices are on the rise too.

There's a direct correlation between soccer balls and kayaks because both rely on oil for their production.

Answer:

1. a. $950,000.
2. $150,000.
3. a. $1,115,000.
4. d. -$15,000.
5. b. the difference between what a person currently makes and what they would earn in their best alternative.

Explanation:

1. Chris's accounting costs

The accounting cost reflects the explicit expenses of the venture. They are the usual costs;

= Parts and materials needed for restoration + Salaries of employees + His salary + Rent along with utilities

= 400,000 + 360,000 + 110,000 + 80,000

= $‭950,000‬

2. Chris's accounting profits

= Revenue - Accounting cost

= 1,100,000 - 950,000

= $150,000

3. Chris's economic cost

These consist of explicit costs plus implicit (opportunity) costs.

The opportunity cost represents the next best option which amounts to $275,000 should he have taken the position with Jay Leno as a personal auto restorer.

This means forgoing the $110,000 he makes currently.

= Accounting cost + Foregone salary - Current salary

= 950,000 + 275,000  - 110,000

= $1,115,000

4. Chris's economic profit

= 1,100,000 - 1,115,000

= -$15,000

5. b. the difference between what a person currently makes and what they would earn in their best alternative.

Answer:

(a) Predetermined overhead rate for the entire plant:

= 30

Applied manufacturing overhead for Job A:

= Total hours of direct labor × Predetermined overhead rate for the plant

= 15 × 30

= 450

Applied manufacturing overhead for Job A:

= Total direct labor hours × Plantwide predetermined overhead rate

= 9 × 30

= 270

(b) Department-specific predetermined overhead rates:

= 30

= 1.2

Applied manufacturing overhead for Job A:

= (Machining machine hours × 30) +  (Assembly direct labor hours × 1.2)

= (11 × 30) +  (10 × 1.2)

= 330 + 12

= 342

Applied manufacturing overhead for Job B:

= (Machining machine hours × 30) +  (Assembly direct labor hours × 1.2)

= (12 × 30) +  (5 × 1.2)

= 360 + 6

= 366
