Answer: 50,000

Explanation:

The question shows that at the current number of accident per period which is 35,000, 0.1 fatalities are recorded.

If the new seat belt law reduces the fatality rate from 0.1 to 0.07, how many accidents would have to occur for the new law to match the previous fatality rate given the previous number of accidents.

Let the new number of accidents be x;

35,000 * 0.1 = 0.07 * x

3,500 = 0.07x

x = 3,500/0.07

= 50,000

At 50,000 accidents, the new law will cause the same amount of fatalities than before. Anything more than 50,000 would lead to more fatalities than before.

                               Direct method

                            Pizza International, Inc.

                          Statement of cash inflow

Cash flow from operating expenses

Cash received from customers       $143,777

($143,951 - $174)

Cash Paid

To suppliers                                      ($53,773)

($45,700 - $651 + $8,724)

To salaries and wages                     ($56,855)

For office expenses                         ($7,730)

($7,785 + $668 - $723)

For income tax expenses               ($2,779)

($50 + $2,729)

Net cash inflow from operating

activities                                            $22,640

It is mainly due to no depreciation expenses for cash products. Depreciation expenses do not contribute to cash outflows. Because of which company has reported large cash inflow from operations compared to near net loss.

. A tomato farmer has used direct distribution to sell to local consumers through an area farmers' market. Last year, she sold 4
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

the farmer's total revenue when she uses the direct channel = 400 x $2.49 = $996

if she uses the indirect channel, her total revenue = 650 x $1.63 = $1,059.50

her total revenue will increase when selling to he supermarkets, but also her variable production costs will increase. This means that it is probable that her total contribution margin decreases even if total revenue decreases.
