Rough Stuff makes 2 products: khaki shorts and khaki pants for men. Each product passes through the cutting machine area, which is the chief constraint during production. Khaki shorts take 16 minutes on the cutting machine and have a contribution margin per pair of shorts of $15.0. Khaki pants take 20 minutes on the cutting machine and have a contribution margin per pair of pants of $31.5. If it is assumed that Rough Stuff has 4,600 hours available on the cutting machine to service a minimum demand for each product of 3,000 units, how many pants should be made?

$8,000

Explanation:

                                                   khaki shorts           khaki pants

machine minutes per unit                    15                         24

contribution margin per unit               $16                       $32

CM per machine minute                  $1.067                   $1.33

minimum demand                            3,000                   3,000

machine minutes required              45,000                72,000

total machine minutes available               288,000

total machine minutes remaining               171,000

production                                             0                       7,125

total production                                3,000                   10,125

total contribution margin               $48,000               $324,000

if 100 more machines hours are added, then production time increases by 6,000 minutes which can be used to produce 250 more khaki pants. Contribution margin will increase by 250 x $32 = $8,000

I calculated contribution margin per minute, but you could also calculate contribution margin per hour to determine which product is more profitable.  Contribution margin per hour for shorts = $64, and for pants = $80. The answer will not change.

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation cos(35) =a/25 can be used to find the length of bc what is the length of bc? round to the nearest tenth

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

use pothagarean therom

a^2+b^2=c^2 so first ac

acm is a right triangle because c= 90°

and am (the hypotenuse or c) =16+9 =25

but there is not enough info we need another angle or side length
