The following production data were taken from the records of the Finishing Department for June: Inventory in process, June 1, 25% completed 1,500 units Transferred to finished goods during June 5,000 units Equivalent units of production during June 5,200 units Determine the number of equivalent units of production in the June 30, Finishing Department inventory, assuming that the first-in, first-out method is used to cost inventories. The completion percentage of 25% applies to both direct materials and conversion costs. a.300 units b.1,000 units c.575 units d.200 units

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.]
