Deck 13: Profitability Analysis

Question 1

A portrait painter has been asked to do far more portraits in the next three months than she has time to paint during that time period.To rank the possible portraits in order of their profitability,she should divide each portrait's estimated incremental profit by the amount of time she estimates it will take to paint the portrait.

Answer 1

True

Question 2

The opportunity cost of using a unit of the constrained resource in a volume trade-off decision is determined by the profitability index of the product whose production would be cut back as a result of using the constrained resource.

Answer 2

True

Question 3

Answer 3

True

Question 4

If a company is considering accepting a number of jobs,but there is insufficient production capacity to do all of them,then the jobs that require the greatest amount of the production capacity should be rejected.

Question 5

Question 7

A company that makes horsehair cowboy belts cannot meet the demand for belts due to a limited supply of artisans who know how to make the belts.To determine which models of the cowboy belts should be emphasized,the company should rank the models by dividing the unit contribution of each model by the selling price of the model.

Question 8

Question 10

Absolute profitability refers to the process of deciding which products to drop when a constraint forces trade-offs.

Question 11
