Assume a drought in the Great Plains reduces the supply of wheat. Noting that wheat is a basic ingredient in the production of b
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

price of wheat to increase, the supply of bread to decrease, and the demand for potatoes to increase.

Explanation:

A drought will reduce the supply of wheat thereby causing the supply curve to shift upwards (to the left) leading to an increase in the price of wheat. Since wheat is a basic ingredient in producing bread, an increase in the price of wheat will increase the cost of producing bread. An increase in cost of producing bread will reduce the supply of bread, shifting the supply curve to the right.

Potatoes and bread are close substitutes and therefore, have a competitive demand. An increase in the price of bread will increase the demand for potatoes because rational consumers will opt for a cheaper alternative considering their money income.

Molodets [167]

Answer:

B. 66.67​%

Explanation:

Contribution is the difference between the company's total revenue and the total variable cost. The ratio of the contribution to sales or revenue gives the contribution margin ratio.

The contribution may also be derived from the addition of the fixed cost and the operating income.

Contribution margin

= $115,000 + $54,000

= $169,000

Let the number of units to be sold to achieve targeted income be U

6U - 2U - 115,000 = 54,000

4U = 169,000

U = 42,250

Contribution margin ratio = 169000/(6 * 42,250)

= 66.67%
