Answer:
a. $20,000
b. i. Higher
c. ii. Lower
Explanation:
a. We know that the break even in units formula equals to
= (Fixed cost) ÷ (Selling price per unit - variable cost per unit)
= ($300,000) ÷ ($23 - $8)
= $300,000 ÷ 15
= $20,000
And, Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - variable cost per unit
So, we use contribution margin per unit also.
b. Now if we assume that the fixed cost would be $400,000
So, the new break even equal to
= (Fixed cost) ÷ (Selling price per unit - variable cost per unit)
= ($400,000) ÷ ($23 - $8)
= $400,000 ÷ 15
= $26,666.67
So it is higher
c. Now if we assume that the new variable cost would be $5
So, the new break even equal to
= (Fixed cost) ÷ (Selling price per unit - variable cost per unit)
= ($300,000) ÷ ($23 - $5)
= $300,000 ÷ 18
= $16,666.67
So it is lower
Answer:
a) price of $7 and quantity of 50 units
Explanation:
According to what I'm understanding of the table you got the following:
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}Price&Supply&Demand\\5&11&36\\6&36&68\\7&50&50\\7&73&37\\...&....&...\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7DPrice%26Supply%26Demand%5C%5C5%2611%2636%5C%5C6%2636%2668%5C%5C7%2650%2650%5C%5C7%2673%2637%5C%5C...%26....%26...%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
The equilibrium will be when both forces meet in this case, it is clear that it is happening at a price equal to $7 which generates a supply of 50 units and a demand for 50 units. Both have the same value so it is equilibrium
