The demand for apples in the u. s. is qus = 800 - 20p, and foreign demand for apples is qf = 1200 - 40p, where quantity demanded is measured in millions of bushels and price is in dollars per bushel. the world demand for apples is therefore1. q = 400 - 20p when p is $20 or less.2. q = 2000 - 60p when p is $30 or less.3. q = 2000 - 220p when p is $30 or less.4. q = 400 + 20p for all prices..the world supply of apples is qs = 200 + 30p. therefore, the world equilibrium price for apples is $ per bushel and the equilibrium quantity of apples is million bushels. at the equilibrium price, million bushels will be sold in the u. s., and million bushels will be sold in foreign markets

An important application of regression analysis in accounting is in the estimation of cost. by collecting data on volume and cost and using the least squares method to develop an estimated regression equation relating volume and cost, an accountant can estimate the cost associated with a particular manufacturing volume. consider the following sample of production volumes and total cost data for a manufacturing operation. production volume (units) total cost ($) 400 4000 450 5000 550 5400 600 5900 700 6400 750 7000 compute b 1 and b 0 (to 2 decimals if necessary). b 1 b 0 complete the estimated regression equation (to 2 decimals if necessary). = + x what is the variable cost per unit produced (to 1 decimal)? $ compute the coefficient of determination (to 4 decimals). note: report r 2 between 0 and 1. r 2 = what percentage of the variation in total cost can be explained by the production volume (to 2 decimals)? % the company's production schedule shows 500 units must be produced next month. what is the estimated total cost for this operation (to 2 decimals)? $
