If the sellers pay the majority of the tax, then the supply is more inelastic than demand.

If something is inelastic it is not sensitive to changes in the price or income of someone. The sellers will always have more of the tax burden when supply is more inelastic than demand and vis versa when demand is more inelastic than supply.

NARA [144]

Answer :

Break even units = 10,500

Break even amount = $2,100,000

Explanation :

As per the data given in the question,

a) Break even units = Fixed expense ÷ CM per unit b ÷ (a - c)

= ($466,000 + $269,000) ÷ ($200 - $110 - $20)

= 10,500 units

b) Break even amount = b ÷ (a ÷ c)

= ($466,000 + $269,000) ÷ ($70 ÷ $200)

= $2,100,000

Contribution margin ratio = Contribution margin ÷ Selling price per unit × 100

where,

Contribution margin = Selling price per unit - variable expenses per unit

c) CM per unit Break even units = Fixed expense ÷ Cm per unit

= $735,000 ÷ $70

= 10,500 units

Break even dollars = Fixed expense ÷ Contribution margin ratio

= $735,000 ÷ 0.35

= $2,100,000

d) Contribution margin income statement:

Sales = 10,500 × $200 = $2,100,000

Less Variable expenses 10,500 × ($110+$20) = $1,365,000

Contribution margin $735,000

Less Fixed Expense $735,000

Net Operating Income = $0

asambeis [7]

Answer: Personal Digital Assistants

Explanation:

Personal Digital Assistants are a range of small handheld mobile devices that used to be very popular with working class people as they provide computing and storage uses which are very important in the business world for purposes such as keeping schedules and address books. They were like mini-computers that had small keyboards and sometimes a sensitive pad that could be written on.

Usually termed the 'first Smartphones', PDAs were immensely popular in the 90s and the early 2000s but have since been largely replaced by Smartphones which can perform all their duties and more.

All of the following are true regarding implied agreements EXCEPT which one?

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

An implied agreement is based on a formal agreement.

Explanation:

A contract can be defined as an agreement between two or more parties (group of people) which gives rise to a mutual legal obligation or enforceable by law.

There are different types of contract in business and these includes: fixed-price contract, cost-plus contract, bilateral contract, implied contract, unilateral contract, adhesion contract, unconscionable contract, option contract, express contract, executory contract, etc.

Mutual assent is a legal term which represents an agreement by both parties to a contract. When two parties to a contract both have an understanding of the parameters, terms and conditions surrounding a contract, it ultimately implies that they are in agreement; this is generally referred to as mutual assent.

Simply stated, mutual assent connotes agreement, acceptance and consent to a contract by both parties.

An implied contract can be defined as an informal contract that exists based on an assumption or understanding between two or more parties, rather than on terms that are formally and specifically defined.

This ultimately implies that, an implied agreement is not based on a formal agreement but on assumptions or understanding between the parties involved.
