Delicate zones of the body consume up more room in the cortex: The more touchy a body part is, the more cortex space it has. The cortex has more space gave to the face than to the back: A great deal of room in the cortex is given to the face and none to the back.

Given the organization of the primary somatosensory cortex, why does a slap in the face hurt more than a slap on the back? The primary somatosensory cortex is a part of the cortex (brain burier) that protects the skull. The cortex and brain are very sensitive parts of the body and it has more room to move around in its location verses the back. Due to the complexity of the brain and the space it occupies, it has more room to bounce and hit the ‘walls’ which causes more pain over a slap in the back.

Answer:

"He pulled the stick out, just now, because it was hurting him."

Explanation:

An impaled object may be providing a tamponade effect, and removal can precipitate sudden hemodynamic decompensation. Additional history including a more definitive description of the blood loss, depth of penetration, and medical history should be obtained. Other information, such as the dirt on the stick or history of diabetes, is important in the overall treatment plan, but can be addressed later.

Answer:

a. $120

b. 5,000 units

c. 7,000 units

Explanation:

Hi, your question is incomplete, I found the full question online and uploaded text and image below.

Workings and explanations :

Contribution margin per unit = Sales - Variable Cots

= $200 - $80

= $120

Break even (units) = Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution margin per unit

= $600,000 ÷ $120

= 5,000 units

Unit Sales to achieve a target profit = (Targeted Profit + Fixed Costs) ÷ Contribution margin per unit

= ($240,000 + $600,000) ÷ $120

= 7,000 units

Margin of Safety = Expected sales - Break even Sales

Note : There is no much details about the current sales level

FULL DETAILS OF THE QUESTION IS AS FOLLOWS :

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

$90,000

Explanation:

Income = Contribution - Fixed Costs

hence,

Fixed Costs = Contribution - Income

therefore

Fixed Costs = (25,000 x $6) - $60,000

= $150,000 - $60,000

= $90,000

thus,

total fixed costs must be $90,000.

katrin [286]

Answer:

EPS = $1.71 per unit

Explanation:

Earnings per share is the total earnings attributable to ordinary shareholders divided by the number of units of common stock .

It represents profit per unit of stock unit held by common stock holder investor. The higher the more profitable and the better.

Earnings per share = Earnings attributable to ordinary shareholders / units of common stock

Earnings attributable to ordinary shareholders= Net income after tax - preference dividend

Net income = 132,000

Preference dividend = Nil

Number of shares at the end of the year = Number of shares at the beginning - number of shares at the end

Number of shares at the end of the year = 80,000 - 3000 = 77,000 units

Earnings = = 132,000 - 0 = 132,000

Earnings per shares(EPS) = $132,000 / 77,000 units = $1.71 per unit

EPS = $1.71 per unit
