Answer:

The “sphere” in lithosphere, atmosphere, and hydrosphere means envelop. The atmosphere, therefore, consists of gases that envelop the Earth. The hydrosphere defines the water that covers 71% of the Earth's surface. The lithosphere refers to the rocks of the Earth's surface and upper mantle, or the depth of the plates.

Dahasolnce [82]

Investors find information about the financial condition of a municipal issuer in D) the official statement.

<h3>What is investor information></h3>

Investor information includes the facts, figures, and other disclosures about an entity that enables the investor to make investment decisions. Most investor information is disclosed in the three financial statements. These statements give details about the company's profitability, liquidity, leverage, including revenue, expenses, and the ability to meet its short-term and long-term financial obligations.

Thus, investor information is not found in the bond buyer, legal opinion, official sale notice but the official statement of the municipal issuer.

Consumers in Georgia pay twice as much for avocados as they do for peaches. However, avocados and peaches are equally priced in

Ugo [173]

Answer: Explanation:

The marginal rate of substitution of peaches for avocados is the maximum amount of avocados that a person is willing to give up to obtain one additional peach. When consumers maximize utility, they set their MRS equal to the price ratio, Pp/PA

where ,

P p is the price of a peach and

PA is the price of an avocado.

In Georgia, avocados cost twice as much as peaches, so the price ratio is ½ , but in California, the prices are the same, so the price ratio is 1. Therefore, when consumers are maximizing utility (assuming they buy positive amounts of both goods), the marginal rates of substitution will not be the same for consumers in both states. Consumers in California will have an MRS that is twice as large as consumers in Georgia.

The waiting time at which 10 percent of the people would continue to hold is given as 2.3

<h3>How to solve for the waiting time</h3>

We have to solve for X ~ Exponential(λ).

then E(X) = 1/λ = 3,

= 0.3333

Remember that the cumulative distribution function of X is F(x) = 1 - e^(-λx). ; x is equal to the time in over case

For 10 percent of the people we would have a probability of

10/100 = 0.1

we are to find

P(X ≤ t)

= 1 - e^(0.3333)(t) = 0.1

Our concern is the value of t

Then we take the like terms

1-0.1 = e^(0.3333)(t)

1/0.9 = e^(0.3333)(t)

t = 3 * ln(1/0.9)

= 0.3157

High Flying takes tourists on helicopter tours of Hawaii. Each tourist buys a $190 ticket; the variable costs average $57 per pe

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

a. 450 tours per month

b. $850 per month

c. CM Ratio = 0.7

1. Increase

2. Decrease

3. No Effect

Explanation:

The questions are:

a. Compute the average number of tours the company must conduct per month to break even

b. Compute the average sales revenue needed per month to produce a target average profit of $53,200

c. Calculate the contribution margin ratio. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

d. Determine whether the actions that follow will increase, decrease, or not affect the company's break-even point.

1. A decrease in tour prices.

2. The termination of a salaried clerk (no replacement is planned).

3. A decrease in the number of tours sold.

Solution:

Selling Price = 190

VC = 57

Unit Contribution Margin = $133

Fixed Cost = 718,200 yearly, so monthly is:

718,200/12 = 59,850

Break even occurs when by selling tours they will cover monthly fixed cost of 59,850 [each tour will get 133], thus:

59,850/133 = 450 tours per month

718,200 FC yearly, means, monthly:

718,200/12 = $59,850

Profit needed 53,200, so we would need to cover:

53200+59850 = $113,050

Each tour gives Unit CM to be $133, so we would need revenue of:

Rev = 113,050/133 = $850

Contribution margin ratio is the quotient of difference in sales and var expenses to sales.

So,

CM Ratio = (Sales - Var Exp) / Sales

CM Ratio = (190 - 57) / 190 = 0.7

If the tour prices, decrease, there will be less revenue coming in so the break even point would go higher.

So, break even point will increase

If a salaried clerk is terminated, it will decrease the salary costs of the company. This is decrease the fixed costs of the company (annual wages and salaries), thus it will be easier to cover the new, lower, fixed costs. Thus, the break even point will decrease

A decrease in number of tours sold would proportionally change the variables and other costs and revenues associated. If you look at the calculation above, you will see that "number of tours" won't affect the Break Even Point. Thus, this action will create "no effect".
