alex41 [277]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although the question is incomplete because it does not provide the location, country, or any other further reference, we can say the following.

The nature and purpose of the public sector result in unique organizational characteristics, basically in the formation of bureaucracies that are a form of governmental and administrative organizations with many employees and hierarchies that more that improve management and operations, complicate it and make it slow due to the fact that the number of people working is numerous.

Experts say that this is not the more efficient and effective form of managing governmental offices. On the contrary, it is slow and inefficient.

Courts Distributors needed two hundred compact refrigerators on a rush basis. It contacted Eastinghouse Corporation, a manufactu
Romashka [77]

Answer:

Courts Distributors and Eastinghouse Corporation

Dispute over Contract Price

The two parties have a legal contract.  The contract was established when Courts requested Eastinghouse to send the refrigerators and bill later.

The exact price for the contract is in dispute.  This dispute can be resolved between the parties.  Reference to the market price will help resolve the dispute, otherwise, the parties may seek alternative dispute resolutions, like litigation, mediation, or arbitration.

Explanation:

a) Data and Analysis:

Eastinghouse's invoice price for the refrigerators = $140,000

Courts' adopted market price = $120,000

b) Since Courts' reference to the price is with regard to the wholesale market price, it may be that Eastinghouse quoted the retail price instead.  Since Courts is a distributor, it has the right to be charged a wholesaler's price and not a retailer's.  Therefore, we can conclude that after due reference to the prevailing market price of similar refrigerators, the two parties may agree to a price of $120,000 or a little higher.

\frac{Fixed\:Cost}{Contribution \:Margin \:Ratio} = Break\: Even\: Point_{dollars}

\frac{130,000}{0.52} = Break\: Even\: Point_{dollars}

dollars of sales BEP: 250,000

\frac{Fixed\:Cost}{Contribution \:Margin} = Break\: Even\: Point_{units}
