- Accounting procedures allow a business to evaluate its inventory costs based on two methods: LIFO (last in first out) or FIFO (first in first out). A manufacturer evaluated its finished goods inventory (in $000s) for five products with the LIFO and FIFO methods. To analyze the difference, they computed FIFO - LIFO for each product. We would like to determine if the LIFO method results in a lower cost of inventory than the FIFO method. The company wishes to test this hypothesis at the 0.05 level of significance.

- What is the profit function and ounces of wool?arrow_forwardAccounting procedures allow a business to evaluate their inventory costs based on two methods: LIFO (last in first out) or FIFO (first in first out). A manufacturer evaluated its finished goods inventory (in $000s) for five products with the LIFO and FIFO methods. To analyze the difference, they computed FIFO − LIFO for each product. We would like to determine if the LIFO method results in a lower cost of inventory than the FIFO method.

Due to the quality of the sun and the region’s excellent climate, the entire production of Wheat and Barley can be sold. He wants to know how to plant each variety in the 110 hectares, given the costs, net profits and labor requirements according to the data shown below: Variety Wheat Cost (price/hec) 100 Net Profit (Price/hec) 50 Man-days/Hecs 10 Barley 200 120 30 The farmer has a budget of US$10,000 and an availability of 1,200 man-days during the planning horizon. In addition, the farmer would like to get a profit of at least $3000. Generate the mathematical model for the optimal usage of land area to produce wheat and barley. Using graphical method to optimize land usage, how many hectares are to be used for wheat and barley.arrow_forward
