Answer:

The Dollar sales break even for the company is $568750, for the north region is $320000 and for the south region is $80000.

Explanation:

1. for the company:

cont margin ration = contribution/sale

                               = 240000/750000

                               = 0.32

fixed cost = 182000

dollar sales break even = fixed cost/cont margin ratio

                                       = 182000/0.32

                                       = $568750

2.  for the north region:

cont margin ration = contribution/sale

                               = 120000/600000

                               = 0.20

fixed cost = 64000

dollar sales break even = fixed cost/cont margin ratio

                                       = 64000/0.20

                                       = $320000

3. for the south region:

cont margin ration = contribution/sale

                               = 120000/150000

                               = 0.80

fixed cost = 64000

dollar sales break even = fixed cost/cont margin ratio

                                       = 64000/0.80

                                       = $80000

Therefore, The Dollar sales break even for the company is $568750, for the north region is $320000 and for the south region is $80000.

When Heinz introduced EZ Squirt packaging and new colors such as Blastin' Green and Awesome Orange to revitalize consumer buying
Umnica [9.8K]

When Heinz introduced EZ Squirt packaging and new colors such as Blastin' Green and Awesome Orange to revitalize consumer buying, the company was modifying the distribution.

Heinz has launched a color ketchup product for toddlers called EZ Squirt. The product was available in compressible containers and was eventually discontinued by him in 2006.

After six years of creatively decorating food, the novelty wore off and a young fan of the whimsical Heinz grew tired of tattooing hot dogs with his tribal tattoos. The company has discontinued the EZ Squirt color due to declining sales.

Squeeze Bottles became so popular that Heinz eventually stopped making glass bottles, until 2011 when he released a limited edition bottle with his original label.
