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.

Answer:

Cost of equity = 19.1 %

Explanation:

Cost of equity = required rate of return + flotation cost

The Capital assets pricing model would be used to determined  the required rate of return

<em>The capital asset pricing model (CAPM): relates the price of a share to the market risk or systematic risk. The systematic risk is that which affects all the all the economic agents, e.g inflation, interest rate e.t.c  </em>

Using the CAPM , the required rate of return is given as follows:  

E(r)= Rf +β(Rm-Rf)  

E(r) - required return

β- Beta

Rm- Return on market

Rf- Risk-free rate

DATA

E(r) =? , Rf- 3%, Rm-14% , β- 1.1, flotation cost - 4%

E(r) = 3% + 1.1× (14% - 3%) = 15.1 %

Cost of equity = required rate of return + flotation cost

                        = 15.1 % + 4% = 19.1 %

Cost of equity = 19.1 %

The receipts include the receivables and the interest paid by the bank while the payments include the outgoing expenditure and bank charge.

Balance change

= $16,590 - $12,730 -$12.50 + $2.37

= $3,849.87

quester [9]
For the answer to the question above,
we must use this formula,
(New - Old)/ (Ave. of New and Old)

In this case,
501k -500k/(500,500(which is the ave. of the two.
Then it would be 1k/500,500

Then the answer would be .0020
Then
-1.439.5/439.5 because this is the average of the two.
so the answer would be .0023

Then finally divide the rate on change of quantity by the rate of change in price which is
0.002/-0.0023

Then the answer would be -.87

So the elasticity on the demand of model T is .87 ( remove the negative because elasticity is always positive.)
