Assume that you plan to open a soft ice-cream franchise in a resort community during the summer months. Fixed operating costs fo

r the three-month period are projected to be $9,800. Variable costs per serving include the cost of the ice cream and cone, $0.76, and a franchise fee payable to Austrian Ice, AG, $0.24. A market analysis prepared by Austrian Ice indicates that summer sales in the resort community should total 24,000 units. Determine the price you should charge for each ice cream cone to achieve a $25,000 profit for the three-month period. Round answer to two decimal places.

Answer:

$2.45

Explanation:

Fixed cost = $9,800

Variable cost:

= Units sold × (cost of the ice cream and cone + franchise fee)

= 24000 × ($0.76 + $0.24)

= $24,000

So,

total cost = Fixed cost +  Variable cost

               = $9,800 + $24,000

               = $33,800

Profit = $25,000

Now,

Sales = $58,800

Sales unit = 24,000

So,

Sales price per unit:

= $58,800 ÷ 24,000

= $2.45

Hence, the price one should charge for each ice cream cone to achieve a $25,000 profit for the three-month period is $2.45.

Answer:

MPC = 0.4

Explanation:

Multiplier shows change in income due to change (increase) in investment, or change (decrease) in tax. It is calculated by Marginal Propensity to Consume, as follows -

Multiplier ie k = Δ Income / Δ (govt investment or tax) = 1 / (1 - MPC)

Given : ΔG  ie tax fall = 60 ; Targeted income rise = Full employment - actual output = 2000 - 1900 = 100

k = ΔY / ΔG = 100 / 60 = 1.67

k = 1 / (1 - MPC) → 1 - MPC = 1 / k → 1 - MPC = 1 / 1.67 → 1 - MPC = 0.6

MPC = 1 - 0.6 → MPC = 0.4

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

$1,138.92

Explanation:

Current bond price can be calculated present value (PV) of cash flows formula below:

Current price or PV of bond = C{[1 - (1 + i)^-n] ÷ i} + {M × (1 + i)^-n} ...... (1)

Where:

Face value = $1,000

r = coupon rate = 7.2% annually = (7.2% ÷ 2) semiannually = 3.6% semiannually

C = Amount of semiannual interest payment = Face value × r

C = $1,000 × 3.6% = $36

n = number of payment periods remaining = (12 - 1) × 2 = 22

i = YTM = 5.5% annually = (5.5% ÷ 2) semiannually = 2.75% semiannually  = 0.0275 semiannually

M = value at maturity = face value = $1,000

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

PV of bond = 36{[1 - (1 + 0.0275)^-22] ÷ 0.0275} + {1,000 × (1 + 0.0275)^-22}

PV of bond = $1,138.92.

Therefore, the current bond price is $1,138.92.

How did the conflicts between labor unions and business capital evolve during the gilded age? be sure to address strikes, the ev
slavikrds [6]
The industry's progress was confronted with a tough attitude of trade unions which had taken strength after the war.
The strategy adopted was the struggle for wage increases and the conservation of a monopoly power, which in many cases affected the introduction of technical improvements.
At that time, international sectoral trade unions and multinational corporations negotiate international framework agreements that allowed for Labour advancement.
It should also be noted that from the creation of the International Workers Association (IWA), the First World Trade union centre of the working class, the right to strike is recognised as one of the fundamental rights of the individual.Since then, representatives of workers from different countries jointly deal with the social problems that concerned them.
