Total Program Cost = Program Cost + Administration Fee + (HR Staff Needed * HR Staff Salary per Hour * Hours to

Complete Training) + (Employees Needed * Employees Salary per Hour * Hours to Complete Training)

A = 14000 + 145 + (3 * 20 * 25) + (10 * 12.5 * 25) = 18770

B = 13000 + 170 + (4 * 20 * 28) + (10 * 12.5 * 28) = 18910

C = 14500 + 140 + (4 * 20 * 25) + (10 * 12.5 * 25) = 19765

D = 16000 + 130 + (3 * 20 * 30) + (10 * 12.5 * 30) = 21680

Most cost efficient program = Least cost program = Program A

Answer: a
Sales per day = No. of Pizzas * Price

Before Promotion:

Sales per day = 250 * 12 = 3000

After Promotion:

No. of Pizzas increase by 18%

No. of Pizzas = 250 + (250 * 18%) = 295

Price decrease by 20%

Price = 12 – (12 * 20%) = 9.6

Sales per day = 295 * 9.6 = 2832

Difference = Sales per day after promotion – Sales per day before promotion = 2832 – 3000 = -168

Decrease by 168

Answer: b
Total Sales = 1st Quarter + 2nd Quarter + 3rd Quarter + 4th Quarter

Cost of Pay for Salespeople = Total Sales * 10%

Typical Business Costs = Total Sales * 20%

Profit = Total Sales – (Cost of Pay for Salespeople + Typical Business Costs)

2007:

Total Sales = 14.5 + 18 + 16.5 + 13 = 62

Cost of Pay for Salespeople = 62 * 10% = 6.2

Typical Business Costs = 62 * 20% = 12.4

Profit = 62 – (6.2 + 12.4) = 43.4

2010:

Total Sales = 15.5 + 21 + 16 + 15.5 = 68

Cost of Pay for Salespeople = 68 * 10% = 6.8

Typical Business Costs = 68 * 20% = 13.6

Profit = 68 – (6.8 + 13.6) = 47.6

Profit earned in 2010 more than 2007 = 47.6 – 43.4 = 4.2

Windchimes:

(10% * 1000) / 25% = 400

Birdfeeders:

100% 400

85% ? → 85% = 3% + 2% + 60% + 20%

(85% * 400) / 100% = 340

Answer: b
Profit = Sale – Cost

Sale = Sale Price per Unit * Maximum Production

Cost = (Labor Costs + Material Costs + Shipping Costs) * Maximum Production

Product C before Adjustment:

Labor Costs Material Costs Shipping Costs Sale Price per Unit Maximum Production

7.25 2.65 0.10 12.5 210

Profit = (12.5 * 210) – [(7.25 + 2.65 + 0.10) * 210] = 2625 – 2100 = 525

Product C after Adjustment:

Labor Costs Material Costs Shipping Costs Sale Price per Unit Maximum Production

3.45 2.65 0.10 12.5 250

Profit = (12.5 * 250) – [(3.45 + 2.65 + 0.10) * 250] = 3125 – 1550 = 1575

Increase in Profit = 1575 – 525 = 1050

100% 525

? 1050

(1050 * 100%) / 525 = 2 = 200%

No. of Words per Minute at End = No. of Words / No. of Minutes = 1680 / 20 = 84

Increase in No. of Words per Minute = No. of Words per Minute at End – No. of Words per Minute at Beginning

Price of Office Supplies after 20% discount:

Paper Box = 21.99 – (21.99 * 20%) = 17.59

Toner Cartridge = 52.9 – (52.9 * 20%) = 42.32

Folder = 0.99 – (0.99 * 20%) = 0.79

No. of Folders = 175 – [(3 * 17.59) + (2 * 42.32)] / 0.79 = (175 – 137.41) / 0.79 = 37.59 / 0.79 = 47.58 = 47

Answer: d
Cost per Pen = Cost / No. of Pens

Cost per Pen for Box of 25 Pens = 7.19 / 25 = 0.29

Cost per Pen for Box of 50 Pens = 10.78 / 50 = 0.22

Cost per Pen for Box of 75 Pens = 14.53 / 75 = 0.19

Cost per Pen for Box of 100 Pens = 22.5 / 100 = 0.23

Cost per Pen for Box of 125 Pens = 26.25 / 125 = 0.21

Box with cheapest per pen cost = Box of 75

Profit = Sale Price * % * Units Sold

Treeline Profit = 39000 * 22% * 14 = 120120

Lumberman Pofit = 48000 * 20% * ? = ?

Warranty Bonus = Sale Price * % * No. of Warranties

Treeline Warranty Bonus = 39000 * 9% * 7 = 24570

Lumberman Warranty Bonus = 48000 * 8% * 12 = 46080

Lumberman Profit = Total Profit including Warranty Bonuses – (Treeline Profit + Treeline Warranty Bonus +
Lumberman Warranty Bonus)

= 363570 – (120120 + 24570 + 46080) = 172800

Lumberman Profit = 48000 * 20% * Units Sold

172800 = 48000 * 20% * Units Sold

172800 = 9600 * Units Sold

Units Sold = 172800 / 9600 = 18

No. of silverware pieces produced per day = 1000 * (24 / 2) = 12000

No. of boxes produced per day = No. of silverware pieces produced per day / No. of silverware pieces per box

Given:

3 wheat + 2 corn + 1 oats = 1 wheat + 1 corn + 5 oats

2 corn + 1 oats = 26

1 corn = 10

1 wheat = ?

Solution:

2 corn + 1 oats = 26

(2 * 10) + 1 oats = 26

20 + 1 oats = 26

1 oats = 26 – 20 = 6

3 wheat + 2 corn + 1 oats = 1 wheat + 1 corn + 5 oats

3 wheat + (2 * 10) + 6 = 1 wheat + 10 + (5 * 6)

3 wheat + 20 + 6 = 1 wheat + 10 + 30

3 wheat + 26 = 1 wheat + 40

3 wheat – 1 wheat = 40 – 26

March = 50000 – 7876 = 42124

April = 42124 – [7876 + (7876 * 2%)] = 42124 – 8033.52 = 34090.48

May = 34090.48 – [8033.52 + (8033.52 * 2%)] = 34090.48 – 8194.19 = 25896.29

June = 25896.29 – [8194.19 + (8194.19 * 2%)] = 25896.29 – 8358.07 = 17538.22

Baker filled measuring cup with 3/4 cup water

3/4

He poured 1/2 of water into batter

3/4 / 2 = 3/8

He spilled 1/8 cup of water on floor

3/8 – 1/8 = 1/4

What he needs to add to what is left in the cup to have 50% more than what he started with

1/4 + ? = 3/4 + (3/4 * 50%)

1/4 + ? = 9/8

? = 9/8 – 1/4 = 7/8

Dan & Betty paint 2400 square feet in 4 hours

In 1 hour = 2400 / 4 = 600

Since, Betty twice as fast as Dan

So, Dan = 200 & Betty = 400

Dan & Betty & Sue paint 3600 square feet in 3 hours

In 1 hour = 3600 / 3 = 1200

Dan = 200 & Betty = 400

Sue = 1200 – (200 + 400) = 600

No. of Square feet Sue paint in 4 hours 27 minutes = 600 square feet per hour * 4 hours 27 minutes

= 600 * [4 + (27 / 60)] = 600 * 4.45 = 2670
