Answer:

$500

0.25

0.75

Explanation:

It is assumed that disposable income is either saved or consumed.

Disposable income = Consumption + Savings

Savings = Disposable income - Consumption

= $2000 - $1500 = $500

MPS = Savings ÷ Income

= 500 ÷ 2000 = 0.25

MPC = Consumption ÷ Income

= 1500 ÷ 2000 = 0.75

MPS + MPC = 1

Alternatively: MPC = 1 - MPS = 1 - 0.25 = 0.75

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

the destruction of jobs due to labor skills of certain workers becoming obsolete.

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

(a). Total variable Cost = $2,890,000

Total variable Cost Per Unit  = $289  

(b). Variable Cost Markup Percentage = 12.46%

(c). Selling Price Per Unit = $325

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-

a). Total Fixed Cost = Selling and Administrative Expenses + Factory Overhead

= $140,000 + $350,000 = $490,000

Fixed Cost Per Unit = Total Fixed Cost ÷ Cost of Produced and Selling Units

= $490,000 ÷ 10,000 = $49

Total variable Cost Per Unit = Fixed Cost Per Unit + Variable Cost Per Unit

= $49 + $240 = $289

Total variable Cost = Cost of Produced and Selling Units × Total Cost Per Unit

= 10,000 × $289 = $2,890,000

b). Desired Profit = Invested Assets × 30%

= $1,200,000 × 30÷100 = $360,000

Variable Cost Markup Percentage = Desired Profit ÷ Total Cost

=$360,000 ÷ $2,890,000 = 0.1246 = 12.46%

c). Selling Price Per Unit = (1 + Variable Cost Markup Percentage) × Total Cost Per Unit

= (1 + 12.46%) × $289

= 1.1246 × $289

= $325
