Answer:

 Break-even sales         =  $800,000.

Explanation:

<em>The beak-even point is the units of products to be sold or number of customers to be served to enable a business to cover exactly its total cost from the revenue. At the break-even point, the business makes no profit or no loss because the contribution from sales exactly equals the total fixed cost</em>

<em>Break-even in sales revenue = Total fixed cost/Contribution margin</em>

<em>Contribution margin (%) = Contribution/ sales ×  100</em>

                                        = 160,000/640,000

                                        = 0.25 ×  100

                                        = 25%

<em>Fixed cost =   Contribution -   operating income</em>

                                    = 160,000- -( 40,000)

                             = 160,000 + 40,000

                             = 200,000

<em>Break-even point sales = 200,000/25%</em>

                                       =  $800,000.

adoni [48]

Answer:

Stated yield is 11.04%

expected yield is  5.78%

Explanation:

The expected yield to maturity can be computed using the rate formula in excel which is given below:

=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)

nper is the number of coupon interest the bond would pay which is 13

pmt is the amount of coupon interest the bond pays which is $1000*10%=$100

pv is the current price of the bond which is $930

fv is the face value of $1000

=rate(13,100,-930,1000)=11.04%

However the expected yield has the coupon interest reduced to one -half as calculated below:

=rate(13,100*0.5,-930,1000)=5.78%

victus00 [196]

Answer:

$44,928,000

Explanation:

The fact that 416,000 received a refund of $3,600 each means that the tax authority would lose the interest income that could have been generated on the total refund amount based on a 3% interest rate of return.

Lost annual income=number of people who got refund*average refund per person*interest rate of return

number of people who got refund=416000

average refund per person=$3,600

the interest rate of return=3%

Lost annual income=416,000*$3,600*3%

Lost annual income=$44,928,000
