假定某行业的长期总成本函数为三次方程: TC=a+bq+cq²+dq³。证明（用微积分)总成本

函数至少在取a、b、c、d四个参数值时与U形平均成本曲线相一致。

Suppose the long - run total cost function for an industry is given by the cubic equation TC =a+bq+cq²+dq³. Show (using calculus ) that this total cost function is consistent with a U - shaped average cost curve for at least some values of a, b, c, d.

lowing information is available:

Fixed costs relating to material handling amount to $100,000. The cost driver for these costs is the volume of material purchased.

General fixed costs, absorbed on the basis of labour hours, amount to $180,000.

Using activity-based costing, what is the total fixed overhead amount to be absorbed into each unit of product B (to the nearest whole $)？

A.$113

B.$120

C.$40

D.$105

The Organic Bread Company (OBC) makes a range of breads for sale direct to the public. The production process begins with workers weighing out ingredients on electronic scales and then placing them in a machine for mixing. A worker then manually removes the mix from the machine and shapes it into loaves by hand, after which the bread is then placed into the oven for baking.

All baked loaves are then inspected by OBC’s quality inspector before they are packaged up and made ready for sale. Any loaves which fail the inspection are donated to a local food bank.

The standard cost card for OBC’s ‘Mixed Bloomer’, one of its most popular loaves, is as follows:

Budgeted production of Mixed Bloomers was 1,000 units for the quarter, although actual production was only 950 units. The total actual quantities used and their actual costs were:

Required:

(a) Calculate the total material mix variance and the total material yield variance for OBC for the last quarter. (7 marks)

(b) Using the information in the question, suggest THREE possible reasons why an ADVERSE MATERIAL YIELD variance could arise at OBC. (3 marks)

听力原文： The Credit Card in the U. S. Today, more and more people in the U. S. are using credit cards instead of money to buy what they need. Almost anyone who bas a steady income and a continuous work record can apply for a credit card. With a credit card, you can buy a car, eat a dinner, take a trip, and even get a haircut by charging the cost to your account. In this way, you can pay for purchases a month or two later. Or you may choose to spread out your payments over several months and pay only part of the total amount each month.. With a credit card , you don’t have to carry much cash and you don’t have to be concerned about losing your money through carelessness or theft. The card user only has to worry about paying the final bill. This of course can be a problem if you charge more than you can pay for. （）
