Answer:

700 units

Explanation:

The breakeven point is also known as the BEP. The BEP  is the number of units a company must sell for sales or revenue generated is equal to the cost incurred. As such, the BEP is the number of units that must be sold for the company to make neither a profit nor a loss.

Both sales and variable cost are dependent on the number of units sold.

The sales less the variable cost gives the contribution margin. The contribution margin less the fixed cost gives the net operating income.

Let the BEP units be T

35T = 11,000 + 3000 + T(13 + 2)

35T - 15T = 14,0000

20T = 14,000

T = 700

The company's new breakeven in units is 700 units

Handmade Soaps Company had operating expenses of $52,000. At the beginning of the year, Handmade Soaps owed $15,000 on accrued l
Softa [21]

Answer:

Cash Paid = $62000

Explanation:

To calculate the amount of cash paid by the business for operating expenses during the year, we use the following equation.

Cash Paid = Opening Accrued liability + Operating expenses for the year - Closing Accrued Liability

By plugging in the values for opening accrued liabilities, operating expenses for the year and closing accrued liabilities in the above formula, we can calculate the amount of cash paid for operating expenses.

Cash Paid = 15000 + 52000 - 5000

Cash Paid = $62000

The two-year interest rate is 10% and the expected annual inflation rate is 5%.
vesna_86 [32]

In economics, the Fisher equation is used to determine the relationship of the nominal interest rate and the real interest rate. This equation takes into account the effect of inflation. Mathematically this is expressed as:

Real rate = \frac{1+Nominal rate}{1+Inflation} -1

The values given are:

Nominal rate= 10% = 0.1

Inflation=5%=0.05

Substituting known values and by calculation:

<span>Real rate=0.0476 = 4.76%</span>

Crane Enterprises reported cost of goods sold for 2020 of $1,290,700 and retained earnings of $4,708,100 at December 31, 2020. C
Grace [21]

Answer:

  • Adjusted Cost of Goods sold = $1,206,860
  • Adjusted Retained Earnings = $4,675,190

Explanation:

An overstated opening inventory would overstate Cost of Goods sold. The overstatement should therefore be removed from the Cost of goods sold.

An overstated closing inventory would understate Cost of Goods sold. The overstatement should therefore be added to the Cost of Goods sold.

Adjusted Cost of Goods sold 2020 = Cost of Goods sold + 2020 ending inventory - 2019 opening inventory

= 1,290,700 + 32,910 - 116,750

= $1,206,860

Adjusted Retained earnings

The retained earnings would have to be adjusted for the overstatement of the current inventory by $32,910 because this understated Cost of Goods sold.

= Retained earnings - Overstatement of inventory

= 4,708,100 - 32,910

= $4,675,190

Chris has three options for settling an insurance claim. Option A will provide $1,500 a month for 6 years. Option B will pay $1,
Papessa [141]

Answer:

  • <u><em>Option B. $1,025 a month for 10 years.</em></u>

Explanation:

Calculate the present value of each option:

     \text{Monthly rate: } 6.8\%/12 = 0.068/12 = 0.005\overline 6

Formula:

        PV=C\times \bigg[\dfrac{1}{r}-\dfrac{1}{r(1+r)^t}\bigg]

Where:

  • PV is the present value of the constant monthly payments
  • r is the monthly rate
  • t is the number of moths

<u>1. Option A will provide $1,500 a month for 6 years. </u>

         PV=$\ 1,500\times \bigg[\dfrac{1}{(0.005\overline 6}-\dfrac{1}{0.005\overline 6(1+0.005\overline 6)^{(6\times12)}}\bigg]

         PV=\$ 88,479.23

<u>2. Option B will pay $1,025 a month for 10 years. </u>

         PV=$\ 1,025\times \bigg[\dfrac{1}{(0.005\overline 6}-\dfrac{1}{0.005\overline 6(1+0.005\overline 6)^{(10\times12)}}\bigg]

         PV=\$ 89,068.22

<u>3. Option C offers $85,000 as a lump sum payment today. </u>

<u></u>

  • PV = $85,000
<h2 /><h2> Conclusion:</h2>

The present value of the<em> option B, $1,025 a month for 10 years</em>, has a the greatest present value, thus since he is only concerned with the <em>financial aspects of the offier</em>, this is the one he should select.

Assume the demand for crack cocaine is inelastic and that users get the funds to pay for their crack by stealing. Suppose that t
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

Total Revenue of Cocaine will increase.

Explanation:

Elasticity of demand is demand responsiveness to price change.

Price & Total Revenue have relationships as per Elasticity of Demand :

  • Elastic Demand >1 : Change in quantity demanded  >  change in price ; Price & Total Revenue negatively related.
  • Inelastic Demand < 1 : Change in quantity demanded < price change ; Price & Total Revenue positively related

Given : Demand for crack cocaine is inelastic. If government increases penalties on cocaine supply, number of dealers decrease.

Then , the supply of cocaine will fall. Supply Shortage will increase the price. However - because demand is inelastic , total revenue will increase as a result of price rise.
