In regards to modern operating systems If you are asked to design a hotel check-in system that has three steps, what would you like to propose? If you are asked to detail your previous design so that it has five steps, how would you update it and why? If you are asked to propose a hotel check-in system without any limitation in steps, what would it be and why?

You are part of a Design and Construct team for a conference centre and 300 bed hotel accommodation in Darwin, Northern Territory. The site is 10 hectares on the oceanfront. The developer wants the project to be environmentally friendly and to minimise energy consumption and water usage while maintaining a luxury hotel feel. List the factors and strategies that you would consider most important in the design of this building, i.e. the design adaptations for the building.

(a) The price elasticity of demand for smoke grinders in response to changes in the price of purpletts is -2. What formula and concept will we use to study the change in quantity demanded of smoke grinders to a change in price of purpletts? What the -2 elasticity of demand tells us about the goods purpletts and smoke grinders? (b) Given the table below, answer the following question. The quantity demanded of which good decreases the most during a recession (when incomes decrease)?
Given the table below ( income elasticity of demand), answer the following question.
Total brand cereal = 0.3, eclipse galsses = -1.5, office chairs = 0, theater tickets = 4, heart shaped pillows = 2
The quantity demanded of which good decreases the most during a recession (when incomes decrease)?

Sundin Inc. ("The Company") is a manufacturer of hockey sticks in Sweden. This year is a very important year for the company, as they are considering going public in the near future. Management wants to do some scenario planning and see what the financial results would look like under different production levels.
The Company has budgeted these costs for one hockey stick (1 Unit).
| Materials | 1 stick of wood @ $50.00 |
| Labour | 1.25 hours of direct labour @ $9.00/hour |
| Variable overhead | 1.25 hours of direct labour @ $10.00/hour |
Fixed overhead for The Company will be $14,000 this year
Required: Prepare a flexible budget, for the year, for the production of 3,500 and 4,000 units. Using this flexible budget, answer the following questions:
Question 26 options:
What is the total cost to The Company, excluding fixed overhead, for the production of 3,500 units?

Question 28 options:
What is the total cost to The Company, excluding fixed overhead, for the production of 4,000 units?
Question 29 options:
What is the total cost per unit for the production of 4,000 units?
Question 30 options:
Which of the following is true regarding a flexible budget?
|
A flexible budget can only be created at the start of the year |
|
|
Flexible budget is another name for the static budget |
|
|
A flexible budget can only be created for one production level |
|
|
A flexible budget can be created for multiple production levels |
Question 31 options:
Using the flexible budget, what costs are included in calculating the total cost of production?
|
Direct materials, direct labour |
|
|
Direct materials, direct labour, variable manufacturing overhead |
|
|

The market for sandwiches consists of two sandwich shops operating in the local market that produce near identical products and that the inverse demand for sandwiches over the lunch hour is given by P = 280 − 2(Q1 + Q2). In this market each firm independently produces a quantity of output, and these quantities are then sold in the market at a price that is determined by the total amount produced by the two firms. The cost function for Shop 1 is C1(Q1) = 3Q1, and costs for Shop 2 is C2(Q2) = 2Q2. Given this information answer the following:
(a) Calculate the marginal revenue for each shop.
(b) Calculate the reaction function for each shop.
(c) Calculate the level of output each shop will produce if the market is in equilibrium.
(d) Calculate the equilibrium profits for each shop.

The Starr Theater, owned by Meg Vargo, will begin operations in
March. The Starr will be unique in that it will show only triple
features of sequential theme movies. As of March 1, the ledger of
Starr showed: Cash $2,950, Land $22,000, Buildings (concession
stand, projection room, ticket booth, and screen) $10,000,
Equipment $10,000, Accounts Payable $6,000, and Owner’s Capital
$38,950. During the month of March, the following events and
transactions occurred.
| Mar. 2 | Rented the three Indiana Jones movies to be shown for the first 3 weeks of March. The film rental was $3,000; $1,400 was paid in cash and $1,600 will be paid on March 10. | |
| 3 | Ordered the Lord of the Rings movies to be shown the last 10 days of March. It will cost $150 per night. | |
| 9 | Received $4,000 cash from admissions. | |
| 10 | Paid balance due on Indiana Jones movies rental and $1,500 on March 1 accounts payable. | |
| 11 | Starr Theater contracted with Adam Ladd to operate the concession stand. Ladd is to pay 15% of gross concession receipts, payable monthly, for the rental of the concession stand. | |
| 12 | Paid advertising expenses $700. | |
| 20 | Received $5,000 cash from customers for admissions. | |
| 20 | Received the Lord of the Rings movies and paid the rental fee of $1,500. | |
| 31 | Paid salaries of $2,500. | |
| 31 | Received statement from Adam Ladd showing gross receipts from concessions of $5,000 and the balance due to Starr Theater of $750 ($5,000 × 15%) for March. Ladd paid one-half the balance due and will remit the remainder on April 5. | |
| 31 | Received $8,900 cash from customers for admissions. |
1.) Enter the beginning balances in the ledger.
2.) Journalize the March transactions. Starr records admission
revenue as service revenue, rental of the concession stand as rent
revenue, and film rental expense as rent
expense.(Credit account titles are automatically
indented when the amount is entered. Do not indent manually. Record
journal entries in the order presented in the problem. If no entry
is required, select "No Entry" for the account titles and enter 0
for the amounts.)
3.) Post the March journal entries to the ledger.
(Post entries in the order of journal entries presented
in the previous question.)
