katrin [286]

Answer:

Teller's break-even point in sales dollars for 2012 is $400,000

Explanation:

The formula to compute the break even point in dollars is shown below:

Break even point (in dollars) = (Fixed expenses) ÷ (contribution ratio)

where,

Fixed expense is $120,000

And, the contribution ratio equals to

= (Contribution per unit) ÷ (sales per unit) × 100

where,

Contribution is = Selling price - variable cost per unit

= $300 - $210

= $90 per unit

Now put the values to the above formula

So, the ratio would be

= ($90 per unit) ÷ ($300 per unit) × 100

= 30%

Now put the values to the above formula

So, the value would be

= $120,000 ÷ 30%

= $400,000

Daniel [21]

Answer:

A) $0

Explanation:

If the award was unsolicited and given to Joan in recognition for her accomplishments in scientific, educational, literary, religious, artistic, or civic fields, then the award is not taxed.

The unsolicited part is the key here, since most awards are given to candidates that have been previously been nominated by someone, e.g. Nobel prizes are only given to nominated candidates and the winners must pay income taxes.
