Diego Company manufactures one product that is sold for $73 per unit in two geographic regions—the East and West regions. The following information pertains to the company’s first year of operations in which it produced 44,000 units and sold 39,000 units.
Variable costs per unit: | |||
Manufacturing: | |||
Direct materials | $ | 23 | |
Direct labor | $ | 16 | |
Variable manufacturing overhead | $ | 2 | |
Variable selling and administrative | $ | 4 | |
Fixed costs per year: | |||
Fixed manufacturing overhead | $ | 748,000 | |
Fixed selling and administrative expenses | $ | 400,000 | |
The company sold 29,000 units in the East region and 10,000 units in the West region. It determined that $180,000 of its fixed selling and administrative expenses is traceable to the West region, $130,000 is traceable to the East region, and the remaining $90,000 is a common fixed cost. The company will continue to incur the total amount of its fixed manufacturing overhead costs as long as it continues to produce any amount of its only product.
7. What is the amount of the difference between the variable costing and absorption costing net operating incomes (losses)?
8a. What is the company’s break-even point in unit sales?
8b. Is it above or below the actual sales volume? Above Below
9.If the sales volumes in the East and West regions had been reversed, what would be the company’s overall break-even point in unit sales?
10. What would have been the company’s variable costing net operating income (loss) if it had produced and sold 39,000 units?

A bakery buys flour in 25-pound bags. The bakery uses 1,215 bags a year. Ordering cost is $10 per order. Annual carrying cost is $75 per bag.
You have calculated an EOQ of 18 bags. At that quantity your supplier's sales price is $4 per bag
The supplier tells you that if you buy in quantities of 25 bags, you will only have to pay $3.75 per bag
If total cost is your primary concern, should you buy in quantities of 25?
Group of answer choices
a) No, because the non-discounted price is $5,480
b) Yes, because the discounted cost is $5,980
c) Yes, because the discounted cost is $5,480
d) No, because the non-discounted cost is $6,210

Usually, Djikstra’s shortest-path algorithm is not used on
graphs with negative-weight edges because it may fail and give us
an incorrect answer. However, sometimes Djikstra’s will give us the
correct answer even if the graph has negative edges.
You are given graph G with at least one negative edge, and a source
s. Write an algorithm that tests whether Djikstra’s algorithm will
give the correct shortest paths from s. If it does, return the
shortest paths. If not, return ‘no.’ The time complexity should not
be longer than that of Djiksta’s algorithm itself, which is Θ(|E| +
|V | log |V |).
(Hint: First, use Djikstra’s algorithm to come up with candidate
paths. Then, write an algorithm to verify whether they are in fact
the shortest paths from s.)
