Answer:

A. 9,000 units

Explanation:

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

= (Fixed cost) ÷ (Contribution margin per unit)  

where,  

New Fixed costs = $20,000 + $13,750 = $33,750

And, the contribution margin per unit would be

= $2.50 + $2.50 × 50%

= $2.50 + $1.25

= $3.75

Now put these values to the above formula

So, the units would be equal to

= $33,750 ÷ $3.75

= 9,000 units

A company borrows $25 000 to buy new equipment. The loan is to be repaid in five equal annual payments. If the interest rate is1
REY [17]

Answer:

Each payment is of $6595

Explanation:

Amount borrowed by company= $25000

No. of installments = 5

Interest rate = 10%

We are supposed to find how much are each of the payments

Formula : Amount =I (\frac{1-\frac{1}{(1+r)^n}}{r})

I = installment

r = rate of interest

n = No. of installments

So, 25000 =I (\frac{1-\frac{1}{(1+0.1)^5}}{0.1})\\\frac{25000}{(\frac{1-\frac{1}{(1+0.1)^5}}{0.1})}=I\\6594.93=I

So, Each payment is of $6595
