Janelle Heinke, the owner of Ha'Peppas!, is considering a new oven in which to bake the firm's signature dish, vegetarian pizza.

NikAS [45]

Answer:

a) Oven A = 1,667; Oven B = 2,353 pizzas.

b) Oven A

c) Oven A

d) 13,334 pizzas

Explanation:

Since nothing was mentioned regarding her time availability, the capacity of each oven will not be taken into account.

The income equation for ovens A and B, respectively, are:

$A=(14-2)x-20,000\\B=(14-1.25)x-30,000$

Where 'x' is the number of pizzas sold.

a) The break-even occurs when income is zero:

$A=0=(14-2)x-20,000\\x_A=1,666.66\\B=(14-1.25)x-30,000\\x_B=2,352.94$

Rounding up to the next whole pizza, the break-even for oven A is 1,667 pizzas and for oven B it is 2,353 pizzas.

b) For x = 9,000:

$A=(14-2)*9,000-20,000\\A=\$88,000\\B=(14-1.25)*9,000-30,000\\B=\$84,750$

Income is greater with oven A, so Janelle should use oven A.

c) For x = 12,000

$A=(14-2)*12,000-20,000\\A=\$124,000\\B=(14-1.25)*12,000-30,000\\B=\$123,000$

Income is greater with oven A, so Janelle should use oven A.

d) She should switch ovens at the value for 'x' that causes B to be greater than A:

$A$

Rounding up to the next whole pizza, she should switch ovens at a volume of 13,334 pizzas.

Bowzer Co. has just received $2.7 million from the sale of one of its divisions. The company has 375,000 shares outstanding that

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

$76.93 per share

Explanation:

The computation of ex-dividend stock price is shown below:-

Sale of division = $2,7,00,000

Outstanding shares = 375,000

Dividend per share = Sale of division ÷ Outstanding shares

= $2,7,00,000 ÷ 375,000

= $7.2

Stock price after dividend = Sold shares - Dividend per share

= $84.13 - $7.2

= $76.93 per share

Therefore for computing the stock price per dividend we simply subtract dividend per share from sold shares.

Hercules Workout World gains a client who prepays $ 660 for a package of six physical training sessions. Hercules Workout World

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

Service revenue of $ 440

Explanation:

When the customer prepays, the revenue is yet to be earned hence the entries required would be a debit to cash account and a credit to unearned or deferred revenue.

As the service is rendered and revenue is earned, debit the deferred revenue account and credit the revenue account with the amount earned.

Since $660 was collected for 6 training sessions

Revenue from a training session

= 1/6 × $660

= $110

After 4 training sessions, revenue earned and to be recognized in the income statement

= 4 × $110

= $440

Part 1 Household consumption, which accounts for about _______% of the economy, grew at a 4.2% annualized rate during the second

kykrilka [37]

Answer:

1) Household consumption, which accounts for about <u>68%*</u> of the economy, grew at a 4.2% annualized rate during the second quarter of 2016.

*Data obtained from federal government sources.

2) Since household/consumer spending (consumption) represents almost 70% of the nation's GDP, any change will cause a major change in the total GDP. E.g. if consumption increases by 5%, then the whole economy will grow by 5% x 68% = 3.4%.
