Answer:

To break even it  must be molded 1280 handles weekly.

The profit if 1500 handles are produced and sold is $440

Step-by-step explanation:

To break even, the amount of total cost must be the same as the amount of revenues.  

Total Cost is Fixed cost plus unitary variable cost multiplied by the produce quantity.  

Total cost= FC + vc*Q

Where

FC=Fixed cost

vc=unitary variable cos

Q=produce quantity

Revenue= Price * Q

Break even FC + vc*Q=Price * Q

Isolating Q

FC=(Price * Q)-(vc*Q)

FC=(Price-vc) * Q

Q= FC/(Price-vc)

Q= $2560/($3.00-$1.00)=1280

If we sold 1500 handles

Profit = Revenue- Total cost =(Price * Q)-(FC + vc*Q)

P=$3.00 *1500-$2560 - $1.00*1500=

P=$4500-$2560-$1500=440

How much would $500 invested at 6% interest compounded monthly be worth after 5 years? round your answer to the nearest cent.
Lady bird [3.3K]
Use this formula: A = P(1 + r/n)^nt, where A is the amount after interest (what you are solving for), P is the amount you invested originally, r is the rate at which it was invested in decimal form, n is the number of times the compounding occurs each year, t is the time in years it is invested. It would look like this: A = 500(1 + [.06/12])^12*5.  Do inside the parenthesis first to get 1 + .005 = 1.005.  Now raise that to the 60th power (12 times 5 is 60) to get 1.34558. Now multiply that by the 500 out front to get a total amount of $674.43

kvv77 [185]

Answer:

<u>314 of the people attending the fun fair are people living in the neighborhood</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the data given to us for solving the question:

Number of people attending the fun fair = 2,512

Fraction of people attending the fun fair that are students = 5/8

Fraction of people attending the fun fair that are parents = 1/4

Rest of the people attending the fun fair lives in the neighborhood

2. Let's calculate the number of students, parents and people living in the neighborhood

Students:

Fraction of people attending the fun fair that are students = 5/8

5/8 * 2,512 = 1,570

1,570 of the people attending the fun fair are students

Parents:

Fraction of people attending the fun fair that are parents = 1/4

1/4 * 2,512 = 628

628 of the people attending the fun fair are parents

People living in the neighborhood

2,512 - 1,570 - 628 = 314

<u>314 of the people attending the fun fair are people living in the neighborhood</u>
