Explanation:

The computation of the fixed cost and the variable cost per hour by using high low method is shown below:

Variable cost per mile = (High Operating cost - low operating cost) ÷ (High miles - low miles)

= ($845 - $625) ÷ (3,350 miles - 2,250 miles)

= $220 ÷ 1,100 miles

= $0.2 per miles

Now the fixed cost equal to

= High operating cost - (High miles × Variable cost per miles)

= $845 - (3,350 miles × $0.2 per miles)

= $845 - $670

= $175

And, the contribution margin income statement is presented below:

Sales (1,400 × $0.6)                                         $840

Less: Variable cost (1,400 × $0.2)                ($280)

Contribution margin                                        $560

Less: Fixed cost                                               ($175)

Net  operating income                                    $385

The quantity demanded x for a product is inversely proportional to the cube of the price p for p > 1. When the price is $10 p
Delvig [45]

Answer:

$6.00

Explanation:

Given data

quantity demanded ( x )  ∝ 1 / p^3       for p > 1

when p = $10/unit , x = 64

initial cost = $140, cost per unit = $4

<u>Determine the price that will yield a maximum profit </u>

x = k/p^3 ----- ( 1 ).  when x = 64 , p = $10 , k = constant

64 = k/10^3

k = 64 * ( 10^3 )

  = 64000

back to equation 1

x = 64000 / p^3

∴ p = 40 / ∛x

next calculate the value of revenue generated

Revenue(Rx) = P(price ) * x ( quantity )

               = 40 / ∛x * x   =  40 x^2/3

next calculate Total cost of product

C(x) = 140 + 4x

Maximum Profit  generated = R(x) - C(x) = 0

                                              = 40x^2/3 - 140 + 4x  = 0

                                              =  40(2/3) x^(2/3 -1) - 0 - 4 = 0

                                            ∴ ∛x = 20/3    ∴     x = (20/3 ) ^3 = 296

profit is maximum at x(quantity demanded ) = 296 units

hence the price that will yield a maximum profit

P = 40 / ∛x

  = ( 40 / (20/3) )  = $6

Marika is a senior journalist at a news agency. She goes on a temporary leave for six months and travels around different parts
QveST [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is the option B: expatriate assignment.

Explanation:

To begin with, the term of <em>expatriate</em> refers to the person who is currently living abroad in a certain amount of time and primarily for work reasons. This professional worker takes a position outside her home country and that could be done as part of a work assignment scheduled by the employer of the individual. Moreover, expatriate assigment individuals also earn more money than the regular workers at home and furthermore the company generally helps the expatriate in relocation assistance and housing allowance.

Secondly, the case of Marika is a general example of expatriate assigment due to the fact that her company may have ordered her to leave for a period of time to other countries in order to find news and investigate about certain topics and in order to do that the company will pay her so she can do her job properly and then go back home and share her information with her colleagues.

What is the term given to mortgage loan costs such as pest inspections, survey fees, and title insurance?
vichka [17]

Answer:

Services the borrower did shop for, that the buyer may find on his own.

Explanation:

Services such as a pest inspection or title insurance are services that the buyer of a house usually want, but are not mandatory for them to purchase. Therefore usually buyers must search for them on their own since they are not required by a bank.

They are different than services that a lender requires like home insurance, which a buyer must purchase.
