Which option is false?

the-pinewood-furniture-company-produces-chairs-and-tables-from-two-resources-labor-and-wood-the-company-has-80-hours-of-labor-and-36-board-ft-of-wood-available-each-day-demand-for-chairs-is-20802

The Pinewood Furniture Company produces chairs and tables from two resources - labor and wood. The company has 80 hours of labor and 36 board-ft. of wood available each day. Demand for chairs is limited to 6 per day. Each chair requires 8 hours of labor and 2 board-ft. of wood, whereas a table requires 10 hours of labor and 6 board-ft. of wood. The profit derived from each chair is $400 and from each table, $100. The company wants to determine the number of chairs and tables to produce each day in order to maximize profit. Solve this model by using linear programming. The total number of constraints in this problem, including non-negativity constraints is: 4 7 8 6 5 7. If tables (T) sell for $50 profit and chairs (C) sell for $30 profit, then which of the following represents the objective function? Minimize: Z = 50C + 30T Maximize: Z = 50C + 30T Maximize: Z = 30C + 50T Maximize: Z = 30T - 50C None of the above 8. Cerebro Manufacturing produces four types of structural support fittings - plugs, rails, rivets, and clips - which are machined on two CNC machining centers. The machining centers have a capacity of 250,000 minutes per year. The gross margin per unit and machining requirements are shown in the spreadsheet below. A B C D E F 1 Cerebro Manufacturing Model 2 3 Product Plugs Rails Rivets Clips Machine Capacity (mins./year) 4 Gross margin/unit $0.40 $1.20 $0.80 $1.10 5 Minutes/unit 1 2 3 1.5 6 Gross margin/minute 7 Maximum production 8 Profit Assuming that one half of the machine capacity is used for the production of plugs. What is the maximum possible production of plugs based on this capacity? 83,333.33 125,000 166,666.67 250,000 None of the above

12. Which of the following statements is FALSE? (1) Entrepreneurial incentive may be estimated as a percentage of direct and indirect costs. (2) Cost index trending is useful for estimating the current cost of one-of-a-kind items when standard costs are not available. (3) Unit-in-place cost estimates are made using specific cost data for standardized structural components as installed. (4) Data provided by cost-estimating services cannot be used to confirm estimates developed from local cost data. 13. Direct and indirect costs must be calculated and included in: (1) all cost-estimating methods. (2) the unit-in-place method only. (3) the quantity survey method only. (4) the comparative-unit method only. 14. Which of the following statements regarding entrepreneurial profits is FALSE? (1) Entrepreneurial incentive represents the amount of reward for entrepreneurial coordination and risk. (2) Contractor's profit is not usually reflected in the entrepreneurial reward. (3) Entrepreneurial profit is realized when construction is complete. (4) An estimate of entrepreneurial profit is a fundamental component of total cost. 15. Which of the following is NOT a major category of depreciation that should be considered when applying the cost approach of appraisal? (1) External obsolescence (2) Market obsolescence (3) Physical deterioration (4) Functional obsolescence 16. Four years ago, the cost to construct a building was $700,000 and the cost index at that time was 282.6. If the current cost to construct the same building would be $875,000, what is today's cost index? (1) 390.72 (2) 325.60 (3) 353.25 (4) 296.14 17. Which of the following statements is FALSE? (1) In the cost approach, a loss in building value due to external causes is attributed to external obsolescence. (2) Some indirect costs are a function of the time required to accomplish the task. (3) The cost approach cannot be used to estimate the value of proposed construction and special-purpose properties. (4) The use of replacement cost can eliminate the need to measure some forms of functional obsolescence.

00:01 In this question, we're asked which of the following statements is false.
00:03 So, taking a look at our problem, we see that there are three constraints.
00:09 The first constraint is that x1 is greater than or equal to 2 times x2...
