Answer:

B) Increase the unit contribution margin by decreasing the MTBF

Explanation:

Since Beetle is already competitive in terms of awareness and price, it would be unnecessary to decrease the price or increase awareness, as it could even result in a financial loss.

By decreasing the MTBF (mean time between failures), the company's operations become a lot more efficient. That results in the <u>faster coverage of fixed costs.</u>

The unit contribution margin shows us the share of the product unit price that is aimed to cover fixed costs (it is not consumed by variable costs). Therefore, decreasing the MTBF would improve the unit contribution margin and thus propel a more efficient operating system, where more products will be produced and more profit will be generated with each item sold.

miv72 [106K]

Answer:

The price of 3 months call option on stock is 8.03.

Explanation:

Acording to the details we have the following:

P = Price of 3-months put option is $6

So = Current price is $95

X = Exrecise price is $95

r = Risk free interest rate is 9%

C=P+So-<u>     X    </u>

                (1+r)∧T

C=$6+$95-  ( <u>$95      )</u>

                     (1+0.09)∧1/4

C=$6+$95-$92.97

C=8.03

The company is in the process of preparing a cash budget and must determine the expected cash collections by month. To this end,
nydimaria [60]

Answer: $186,000

Explanation:

January is the 2nd month from November which means that all of November's $31,000 will be collected in January.

January is the first month after December so 30% of December sales should be collected in January. 50% has already been collected in December and this left $50,000.

Total credit sales in December must have been:

= 50,000 / 50%

= $100,000

Amount to be collected in January for December:

= 100,000 * 30%

= $30,000

Amount to be collected from January credit sales:

= 50% * 150,000

= $75,000

January cash sales = $50,000

Total cash in January :

= 31,000 + 30,000 + 75,000 + 50,000

= $186,000
