Answer:

it decreases

Explanation:

As a result of the decrease in demand for tacos, the price of tacos would fall, all other things remaining equal.

Producer surplus is the difference between the price of a good and the least price the seller is willing to sell the product. As a result of the fall in price, the producer surplus would decrease.

Assume that price of tacos before the fall in demand is $10

the least price, the seller is willing to sell tacos is $3.

Producer surplus = $10 - $3 = $7

After the fall in demand, price falls to $8

producer surplus becomes = $8 - $3 = $5

We can see that producer surplus fell

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

(a). Total variable Cost = $2,890,000

Total variable Cost Per Unit = $289

(b). Variable Cost Markup Percentage = 12.46%

(c). Selling Price Per Unit = $325

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-

a). Total Fixed Cost = Selling and Administrative Expenses + Factory Overhead

= $140,000 + $350,000 = $490,000

Fixed Cost Per Unit = Total Fixed Cost ÷ Cost of Produced and Selling Units

= $490,000 ÷ 10,000 = $49

Total variable Cost Per Unit = Fixed Cost Per Unit + Variable Cost Per Unit

= $49 + $240 = $289

Total variable Cost = Cost of Produced and Selling Units × Total Cost Per Unit

= 10,000 × $289 = $2,890,000

b). Desired Profit = Invested Assets × 30%

= $1,200,000 × 30÷100 = $360,000

Variable Cost Markup Percentage = Desired Profit ÷ Total Cost

=$360,000 ÷ $2,890,000 = 0.1246 = 12.46%

c). Selling Price Per Unit = (1 + Variable Cost Markup Percentage) × Total Cost Per Unit

= (1 + 12.46%) × $289

= 1.1246 × $289

= $325
