Answer: The debit column of the trial balance was overstated.

Explanation: from the question, the asset purchased with a value of $18,950 was overstated in the asset asset account.

On the purchase of the asset, the asset account is to be debited and accounts payable account is to be credited and not debited. So the debit side of the trial balance was overstated by $18,950 * 2 = $37,900.

Sapphire sells two products: ordinary laptops and premium laptops. Ordinary laptops are priced at $650 each and premium laptops
stira [4]

Answer:

The break-even point in units for ordinary laptops is 2,100 units.

Explanation:

Contribution Margin per unit (ordinary) = Selling Price - Variable cost

                                                                 = $650 -$605

                                                                 = $45

Contribution Margin per unit (premium) = Selling Price - Variable cost                                        = $1,150 -$1,090

= $60

$45* 4x + $60x = Fixed Costs = $126,000

= 180x +60x = $126,000

=240x =$126,000 = 525 units

Ordinary computers = 4x

                                  = 4*525

                                  = 2,100 units

Therefore, The break-even point in units for ordinary laptops is 2,100 units.
