Tamarisk Company uses an activity-based costing system. It has the following manufacturing activity areas, related drivers used as allocation bases, and cost allocation rates. Cost
Activity Cost Driver Allocation Rate
Machine setup Number of setups $50
Material handling Number of parts 0.6
Machining Machine hours 24
Assembly Direct labour hours 20
Inspection Number of finished units 12
During the month, 80 units were produced, requiring 3 setups. Each unit consisted of 20 parts and used 1.7 direct labour hours and 1.25 machine hours. Direct materials cost $120 per finished unit. All other manufacturing costs are classified as conversion costs. ABC costs for research and marketing costs are $160 per unit. All other nonmanufacturing ABC costs are $360 per unit.
Calculate the manufacturing cost per unit for the period.
Calculate the total cost (manufacturing and non-manufacturing costs) per unit for the period.
Suppose Tamarisk Company's managers want to implement target costing. Under target costing, the managers need to determine the amount of cost savings that must be achieved to earn a desired level of profit. If th๑y must set a competitive price of $731.88 and require a 10% profit based on th๑ total cost calculated in the previou part, howmuch cost savings must they g๑nerate?

Suppose a firm faces a fixed price of output, 푝푝= 1200. the firm hires workers from a union at a daily wage, 푤푤, to produce output according to the production function 푞푞= 2퐸퐸12. there are 225 workers in the union. any union worker who does not work for this firm is guaranteed to find nonunion employment at a wage of $96 per day. a.what is the firm’s labor demand function? b.if the firm is allowed to choose 푤푤, but then the union decides how many workers to provide (up to 225) at that wage, what wage will the firm set? how many workers will the union provide? what is the firm’s output and profit? what is the total income of the 225 union workers? c.now suppose that the union sets the wage, but the firm decides how many workers to hire at that wage (up to 225). what wage will the union set to maximize the total income of all 225 workers? how many workers will the firm hire? what is the firm’s output and profit? what is the total income of the 225 union workers? [hint: to maximize total income of union, take the first order condition with respect to w and set equal to 0.]

Suppose that two firms produce differentiated products and compete in prices. as in class, the two firms are located at two ends of a line one mile apart. consumers are evenly distributed along the line. the firms have identical marginal cost, $60. firm b produces a product with value $110 to consumers.firm a (located at 0 on the unit line) produces a higher quality product with value $120 to consumers. the cost of travel are directly related to the distance a consumer travels to purchase a good. if a consumerhas to travel a mile to purchase a good, the incur a cost of $20. if they have to travel x fraction of a mile, they incur a cost of $20x. (a) write down the expressions for how much a consumer at location d would value the products sold by firms a and b, if they set prices p_{a} and p_{b} ? (b) based on your expressions in (a), how much will be demanded from each firm if prices p_{a} and p_{b} are set? (c) what are the nash equilibrium prices?
