rand X tires sold per year​ (in thousands of​ tires), and P is the price per tire. How confident would you be that this is an accurate equation for Brand X tire​ demand?

Answer:

This is a correct equation for Brand X tire demand.

Explanation:

We can be sure that this is an accurate equation for demand by cheking if the slope is negative as the demand decrease when the price increase

Q= 800 - 5P

dQ/dP = -5

the slope is negative the quantity decreases as price increases so this is a demand equation.

During March, Adams Company had sales of $5,000,000, variable expenses of $3,000,000, and fixed expenses of $1,500,000. Assume t
ad-work [718]

Answer:

Option (c) is correct.

Explanation:

Variable cost as a percent of sales:  

= (Variable expenses ÷ Sales) × 100

= ($3,000,000 ÷ $5,000,000) × 100  

= 60%

If Sales = X

then Variable cost is 0.6X (i.e. 60% of Sales)

Sales - Variable cost - fixed expenses = net operating income

X - 0.6X - 1,500,000 = 300,000

0.4X = 300000 + 1500000 = 1800000

X = 1800000 ÷ 0.4

  = 4,500,000

11. If you want to have a return for your Final Portfolio (that is invested between Optimal Risky portfolio and Risk Free Securi
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

Answer is explained in the explanation section.

Explanation:

Note: First of all, this question is incomplete and lacks necessary data to calculate this question. However, I have found the similar question on the internet with complete data given. Additionally, I have shared that data as well in the attachment below for your convenience, Thanks.

Solution:

SD = Standard Deviation

Using utility function, E(R) = Rp - 0.005 x A x SD^{2} = 1.34 - 0.005 x 3x 4.06^{2}

Using utility function, E(R) = 1.093%

If the weight in the risky portfolio is let's say, "a" then,

weight in the risk-free asset = 1 - a

So,

E(R) = a x Rp + (1 - a) x Rf

1.093% = a x 1.34% + (1 - a) x 0.50%

Solving for "a"

a = 70.56% - weight in risky portfolio

and 1 - a = 29.44% - weight in risk-free asset.

Similarly, if you want a return of 1.10%,

we can follow the above steps and get

1.1% = a x 1.34% + (1 - a) x 0.5%

Weight in risky portfolio,

a = 71.43%

weight in risk-free asset,

1 - a = 28.57%

. How does analyzing fixed and variable costs help you to set a sale price that will generate profit? 2. How is profit affected
ELEN [110]

Answer:

1. Apart from helping to know the average cost of a product, analyzing fixed and variable cost will help to derive the break even point.

2. Profit will go down

Explanation:

1. The size of the selling price and the variable cost determine contribution per unit of a product. Contribution per unit is Price minus variable cost. This shows the  contribution of sales revenue towards covering the fixed cost of a product.

2. Relevant range is the estimated or budgeted activity level which defines a business volume of production or operation, it is both maximum and minimum threshold within which the entity must operate to expect certain level of cost and revenue.

Sometimes fixed costs are fixed within a relevant range of activities and outside such range, fixed cost may become variable, which will all things being equal impact negatively on the price.

Also, within relevant range volume discount may be achieved and outside such range, this may be forfeited which, will also reduce profit all things being equal.
