Answer:

86 customers per quarter

Explanation:

Given,

Per quarter = 13 weeks

Fixed Cost = $12,000 per quarter

Variable cost = $10 per week x 13 weeks = $130 per quarter

Selling cost = $270 per quarter

We know,

Break-even point = \frac{Fixed Cost}{Selling Cost - Variable Cost}

Putting the value in the formula,

Break-even point = \frac{12,000}{270 - 130}

Break-even point = 85.71 or 86 customers per quarter.

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

$105 billion

Explanation:

We know that

The national saving equal to

= Private saving + public saving

where,

Private saving = Business saving + household savings

                        =$240 billion + $15 billion

                        = $255 billion

And, the public saving would be -$150 billion

So, the national saving would be

= $255 billion - $150 billion

= $105 billion
