aalyn [17]

Answer:

a) Operating income - $33,800

Explanation:

<em>The flexible budget would be prepared for  a different activity level of 6,300 production units but using the assumptions of the fixed budget</em>

                                                                               $

Sales revenue - ($7× 6,300 units  )   :             44,100.00

Less Variable cost -      ($1 ×  6,300 units ) :      <u>( 6,300)</u>

Contribution                                                       37,800

Less Fixed costs                                                <u>(4,000)</u>

                                                                             <u>33,800</u>

<em>Note that the fixed costs of $4000 remains the same for both the static and flexible budgets. This is because the activity level of 6,300 units of the flexible budget remains within relevant range. So the fixed cost would not change.</em>

Answer:

The correct answer is A.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Mcmurtry Corporation sells a product for $110 per unit. The product's current sales are 12,200 units and its break-even sales are 10,614 units.

<u>The margin of safety is the number of units or amount of dollars that provide genuine profit to the company. It is the "margin" that gives room to try new strategies</u>.

It is calculated using the following formula:

Margin of safety ratio= (current sales level - break-even point)/current sales level

Margin of safety ratio=  (12,200 - 10,614) / 12,200

Margin of safety ratio= 0.13=13%

Elden [556K]

Answer:

B) The public is wary of sharing confidential information after a recent spate of credit card scandals.

Explanation:

There are several advantages of click-only companies, especially that they are able to offer lower prices since they don't need to support the costs of brick-and-mortar stores.

But the whole idea of selling through the internet is based on the customers' trust on new technologies and they specially dislike when the new technologies fail, e.g. when a hacker discloses the accounts and passwords of millions of users.

mash [69]
<span>Expected utility is calculated by multiplying the utility of each possible outcome by its probability and summing the products. So if Terri has a 25% chance of becoming disabled and purchases a policy then her expected utility is: (.25 x $20,000) + (.75 x $80,000) = $5,000 + $60,000 = $65,000. On the other hand, if Terri does not purchase a policy then her expected utility is (.25 x $0) + (.75 x $80,000) = $0 + $60,000 = $60,000.</span>
