Answer:

29,771 units

Explanation:

The break-even indicates the number of units that you have to sell to cover your costs. The break-even point is calculated by using the formula:

Break-even point in units= Fixed costs/(selling price per unit-variable cost per unit)

Break-even point in units= $195,000/($14.95-$8.40)

Break-even point in units= $195,000/$6.55

Break-even point in units= 29,771 units

The break-even point in units is 29,771.

Molly Jasper and her sister, Caitlin Peters, got into the novelties business almost by accident. Molly, a talented sculptor, oft

Paladinen [302]

a. The computation of Mollycaits' operating break-even point is 2,473 units ($4,500/$1.82).

b. The calculation of Mollycaits' EBIT on the department store order is $812.40 ($9,500 - $8,688).

c. If department stores' price were $9.51, the EBIT will be $5,387 ($14,075 - $8,688).

Note that for (b) and (c), the fixed cost is not considered.

d. Without paying more than $7.69, the quantity that will result in an EBIT of $3,700 is 4,505 units ($4,500 + $3,700)/$1.82

e. Varieties of Mollycaits = 15 with variable cost of $5.87

f. The recommendation to Molly and Caitlin with regard to pricing and varieties to offer is that, while the company can varieties to suit the needs of customers, it must ensure that it does not price them below $5.87, its operating cost.

Data and Calculations:

Special contract:

Units of figurines offered = 1,480

Sales value of offer = $9,500

Selling price per unit = $6.42 ($9,500/1,480)

Variable operating cost = $5.87

Contribution margin per unit = $0.55 ($6.42 - $5.97)

Normal business:

Estimated average price per unit = $7.69

Variable operating cost = $5.87

Contribution margin per unit based on average price = $1.82 ($7.69 - $5.87)

Fixed cost per month = $4,500

Thus, Molly and Caitlin can offer various types of figurine, but they must sell at least 2,473 units to break-even.

Answer: The correct answer is c) It does not provide for everyoned.

Explanation:

In a market economy, the problem is that we are not born with the same opportunities, nor the possibility of accessing the same factors of production, nor are we equally qualified in all fields. That is, those who are born in a family with less economic resources, or simply are not enabled in activities that have more benefits, are at a disadvantage compared to the rest of the individuals. These inequalities end up generating inequalities in income distribution.

Real estate investment is capital intensive and has low liquidity compared to other forms of investment.

This will be a good option for the conservative investor because real estate investment is stable and not prone to huge losses that can be incurred in the money markets. Also real estate is not affected by equities market. So will be a safety net in case of failure in the equity market.
