Answer:
increase in total variable cost.
Explanation:
Variable costs change depending on the company's total output. If the output decreases, the variable costs will decrease, if the output increases, the variable costs will increase, e.g. materials. On the other hand, fixed costs do not vary depending on the company's output, that is why they are fixed, e.g. rent, depreciation.

Answer:
break even point in units = 2,667
break even point in $ = $33,338
Explanation:
The break even point marks the point where a company is able to cover all its expenses. At this point the company is not losing money, but it is not making a profit either.
break even point in units = total fixed costs / contribution margin
- total fixed costs = $10,000
- contribution margin = $12.50 - ($4 + $4.75) = $12.50 - $8.75 = $3.75
break even point in units = $10,000 / $3.75 = 2,666.67 ≈ 2,667 units
break even point in $ = 2,667 units x $12.50 per unit = $33,337.50 ≈ $33,338
Answer: Yellow dominates portfolios Blue and Purple.
Explanation:
Portfolio Yellow has a higher expected return than either portfolio Blue or Portfolio Purple which means that if we were evaluating the portfolios on return alone, Portfolio Yellow would dominate the other two.
However, we need to adjust for risk. The portfolio with the lowest standard deviation is the less riskier one of the three. That portfolio is Yellow which means that Yellow has both a higher expected return and a lower risk. It would therefore dominate the rest.
