The question said that if a unit is partially complete at the end of the week, its production will be completed in the following week. When I solved the equation, A is 14.5 units while B is 12.1 units. So when calculate total contribution for the week, should I round these figures down (as partial units may not make any contribution) or just keep the decimal points?
Looking forward to your response,
Iniss.November 20, 2023 at 2:26 pm #695149Where is this question from?
Does it say in the requirement?When calculating the total contribution for the week, it is generally recommended to keep the decimal points and not round down the figures for partially completed units. This is because even partial units can contribute to the overall revenue and profitability of the company. By including the decimal points, you can accurately calculate the contribution of each unit and sum them up to determine the total contribution for the week.

Anyways, I got it. Thank you!November 21, 2023 at 6:48 am #695173Your welcome
