Answer:

The amount of sales that will be necessary to earn the desired profit is 16000 units

Explanation:

To get the amount of sales to earn $10000, we make the following equation.

Profit =Sales -variable cost-fixed cost

Profit=10000

Sales=$5.00x

Variable cost= $2.50x

Fixed cost=$30,000

Replacing,

10000=5x-2.5x-30000

10000+30000=2.5x

x=40000/2.5

x=16000

= Outstanding shares × Price per share

= 145,000 shares × $93.75

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Since the question is missing most of its numbers, I looked for similar question.

variable cost per unit = $1,015,000 / 73,000 = $13.9041

total fixed costs = $490,000

since fixed costs are not avoidable, but can be used to generate $220,000 in revenues, the differential analysis is the following:

                                      Make                Buy             Net income increase

                                                                                    (decrease)

variable costs             $1,140,136.20        $0                $1,140,136.20

fixed overhead             $490,000        $270,000            $220,000

<u> purchase price                   $0             $1,066,000       ($1,066,000) </u>

total                            $1,630,136.20   $1,336,000       $294,136.20

TechSystems should outsource the production since it will be able to increase its operating profits by $294,136.20.

olga55 [171]

Answer:

Married filing jointly

Explanation:

Since Sophia is a widow and did not remarry during 2020, she can still file as married filing jointly. She can do that for up to two years after her spouse (Aiden) died, as long as she doesn't remarry.

The standard deduction for married filing jointly is $24,800 for 2020, which is much higher than single filers or heads of household.
