992 candy bars must be sold to maximize revenue.

<h3>What is revenue?</h3>
  • The total amount of income generated by the sale of goods and services related to the primary operations of the business is referred to as revenue in accounting.
  • Commercial revenue is also known as sales or turnover.
  • Some businesses make money by charging interest, royalties, or other fees.

To find how many candy bars must be sold to maximize revenue:

The price of a candy bar is determined by the quantity sold:

  • p(x) = 124 - (x/16) where x is in 1000s.

If the candy bar's price is p(x), the revenue function is:

  • R(x) = p(x) · x = 124 · x - x²/16

Find the solution of R'(x) = 0 to maximize R(x):

  • R'(x) = 124 - x/8
  • 124 -  x/8 = 0
  • x = 992

Therefore, 992 candy bars must be sold to maximize revenue.

nirvana33 [79]

In order to preserve independence, Michael must "Remove himself from the engagement as he considers the offer." (Option B). It is to be noted that this is an internal control problem.

<h3>What is Independence in this case?</h3>

The absence of situations that jeopardize the internal audit activity's capacity to carry out internal audit tasks objectively is called Independence.

Practically, independence is achieved by ensuring that the internal audit activity has no management control for any of the organization's non-audit functions that are subject to internal audit assessments, and by distancing the internal audit activity's management from the functional oversight of the organization's senior management.
