<em>d. The supply curve does not shift. Only the demand curve shifts.</em>
<u>Answer:</u>
<u>a. Shift to the left, causing the prices of carrots to rise</u>
<u>Explanation:</u>
Indeed, going by the law of supply and holding all other factors constant, we would expect the supply curve to shift to the left, which implies that there would be an increase in the price of carrots.
What this means is that because there are now fewer carrots in the market as a result of the effects of the bad weather, there would be scarcity and so sellers would increase prices.

Answer:
1,500 units; 1,000 units
Explanation:
Break Even Point (in units) = Fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin per unit
Fixed cost = $160,000
Sales Mix = 60% of X + 40% of Y
= 0.6X + 0.4Y
So,
Contribution Margin of the Mix:
= (60% × contribution margin of X) + (40% × contribution margin of Y
)
Contribution Margin of the Mix per unit:
= (60% × 80) + (40% × 40)
= 48 + 16
= $64
Break Even Point (in units) = Fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin per unit
= 160,000 ÷ 64
= 2,500 unit
At the Level of break even
:
Unit of X at break-even:
= 60% of 2,500
= 1,500 units
Unit of Y at break-even:
= 40% of 2,500
= 1,000 units
The first step in making a choice is to define the issue at hand. When making judgments, related costs and benefits should be evaluated. When making judgments, extraneous costs and advantages should be overlooked.
