Look at the sales prices change that is being suggested. In particular, Winetki talks about one of the product's prices as doubl

ing, and that the break-even analysis should be updated for that.
Using just the suggested change to that product's price change, and ignoring all other suggested changes, calculate a revised break-even point in units for the firm as a whole, using the weighted-average contribution margin approach.

The calculation of a revised break-even point in units for the firm as a whole, using the weighted-average contribution margin approach is 1,155,556 units.

<h3>What is the weighted-average contribution margin?</h3>

The weighted-average contribution margin shows the average amount that a group of products or services contribute to meet the fixed costs.

The weighted-average contribution margin can be computed as Aggregate sales - Aggregate variable expenses) ÷ Number of units sold.

<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>

Aggregate sales revenue = $1,800,000

Aggregate variable costs = $1,125,000

Aggregate contribution margin = $675,000 ($1,800,000 - $1,125,000)

Total units sold = 1,500,000

Total fixed costs = $520,000

Weighted average contribution margin = $0.45 ($675,000/1,500,000)

Break-even point in units = 1,155,556 units ($520,000/$0.45)

Thus, the calculation of a revised break-even point in units for the firm as a whole, using the weighted-average contribution margin approach is 1,155,556 units.

Suppose that a portfolio has a beta of 1.15. Over the period of one year, the portfolio had a return of 12.4% with a standard de
Darina [25.2K]

Answer and Explanation:

Given:

Weighted average β = 1.15

Average return (r) = 12.4%

Risk free return (Rf) = 1.2%

Market return (Rm) = 10.2%

Standard deviation (SD) = 16.2%

Computation of Jensen's α :

Jensen's α = r - [Rf + β(Rm - Rf)]

Jensen's α = 12.4% - [1.2% + 1.15(10.2% - 1.2%)]

Jensen's α = 12.4% - [1.2% + 10.35%]

Jensen's α = 12.4% - 11.55%

Jensen's α = 0.85%

Computation of Treynor's index :

Treynor's index (Ratio) = (r - Rf) / β

Treynor's index (Ratio) = (12.4% - 1.2%) / 1.15

Treynor's index (Ratio) = 11.2% / 1.15

Treynor's index (Ratio) = 9.73913043%

Treynor's index (Ratio) = 9.74% (Approx)

Computation of Sharpe's index :

Sharpe's index (Ratio) = (r - Rf) / SD

Sharpe's index (Ratio) = (12.4% - 1.2%) / 16.2%

Sharpe's index (Ratio) = 11.2% / 16.2%

Sharpe's index (Ratio) = 0.69 13%

how can the size of the industrial/service sector and the agriculture employment rate indicate the level of industrialization?​
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

A larger industrial and service sector, and a larger number of people working outside of agriculture, can indicate a higher level of industrialization in the economy and vice versa. This means that the size of industrial service and the sector of agriculture employment rate indicates the level of industrialization because if the agriculture employment is higher than the industrial service it means that the country is not fully developed yet and therefore the level of industrialization is lower. But if the industrial service is higher than the agriculture employment that suggests or indicates that the country is developing or developed. For example in the United States the size of the industrial/service sector is much larger than it's agricultural employment and therefore this should suggest that country is much more industrialized or developed and the United States is. In comparison you take a developing country such as Chad and you can see that the agricultural employment is higher than the size of the industrial/service sector and in relation to this you can see that Chad must have a lower level of industrialization and in fact it does.

if the interest rate on a savings account is 0.018%, approximately how much money do you need to keep in this account for 1 year
scZoUnD [109]
A = $9.99, the amount needed after 1 year 
r = 0.018% = 0.00018, interest rate
n = 12, compoundings per year
t = 1, one year duration

Let P =  required balance at the beginning of the year.
Then
P(1+ \frac{r}{n} )^{nt} = A
P(1 + 0.00018/12)¹² = 9.99
1.00018P = 9.99
P = $9.988 ≈ $9.99

Answer: $9.99

The accounting equation is assets = liabilities + owner’s equity.
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

A. Why must this equation always balance?

It must balance because all the assets that firm controls have been acquired either by external funding (liabilities), or by internal funding (owner's equity).

This also explains the relationship between economic resources and claims to economic resources. Economic resources (assets) are either the claim of an external agent that has to be paid in the future (liability), or the claim of one of the company's owners who could in theory dissolve the company and take possession of the company's assets (equity).

B. What transactions increase or decrease owner’s equity?

Profits increase owner's equity, as well as capita contributions, whether in the form of stocks, equipment, or other financial instruments.

Costs and expenses are substracted from revenues, and therefore they reduce profits, and owner's equity.

C. How does net income or loss affect owner’s equity?

A net income profit increases owner's equity, while a net income loss decreases owner's equity.

D. Please give an example of a transaction, applied to the accounting equation.

ABC corporation issues 1,000 common stocks with par value of $5, and a price per stock of $7. The journal entry is:

Account                                    Debit                Credit

Cash                                        $7,000

Common Stock                                                 $5,000

Additional Paid-In Capital                                $2,000

In this transaction, cash is an asset and common stock and additional paid-in capital are part of the stockholder's equity. The corporation does not have any liabilities yet.

ABC Corp accounting equation = Assets = Liabilities + Stockholder's equity

                                                     = $7,000 = 0 + $7,000

As can be seen, the accounting equation is true even in the earliest stages of the corporation.
