Chapter 4. Costs and Cost Minimization Problem Set 1. Suppose the production of airframes is characterized by a CES production function: Q = (L½ + K½)2. The marginal products for this production function are MPL = (L½ + K½)L−½ and MPK = (L½+ K½)K−½. Suppose that the price of labor is $10 per unit and the price of capital is $1 per unit. Find the cost-minimizing combination of labor and capital for an airframe manufacturer that wants to produce 121‚000 airframes. The tangency condition

Today the global brands don’t strive to differ from their competitors in everything and at any cost. As an example‚ let’s have a global look at the business of mobile phones.

* Short Run Costs A period of time in which the quantity of some inputs cannot be increased beyond the fixed amount that is available. For example‚ what quantity of inventory to order is a short run decision. Whether or not to build a new factory would be considered a long run decision. 1.

Cost Variance Analysis Presented by : Edmund C. Cabrera MBA Student Universidad de Manila Definitions STANDARD COSTS – are predetermined or target unit costs of production which should be attained under efficient conditions. It is the amount and costs of direct material‚ direct labor‚ and factory overhead required to produce one unit of finished product. STANDARD COST SYSTEM – is an accounting system which uses standard costs rather than actual costs to account for units as they flow through

Although managers are expected to rely on internally-produced reports‚ such as balance sheets and income statements‚ to help them make decisions‚ most of the information that appears on these statements is period-based rather than decision-based. A balance sheet shows the sum total of a firm’s assets and liabilities
