Aleks [24]

Answer:

a. $9,338

b. 0.363

Explanation:

a. Contribution Margin  = Sales - Variable Cost

Where Sales = $25,700

Variable Cost = Food & Packaging + Payroll + 40% x General, Selling and Administrative expenses

V.C. = 8,982 + 6,500 + 40% * 3,700

V.C = 8,982 + 6,500 + 1,480

= $16,362

Therefore, Contribution Margin  = Sales - Variable Cost  

= $25,700 - $16,362

=$9,338

b. McDonald's contribution margin ratio  = Contribution Margin / Sales

= $9,338 / $25,700

= 0.363

goldenfox [79]

Answer:

A= 62.5; B=60%; C = $160,000 and $352,000

Explanation:

A.

in 1984 each bucket of chicken was priced at $10 (nominal GDP)

in 2005 the price per bucket of chicken was $16 (real GDP)

GDP price index = nominal GDP divided by the real GDP × 100

=($10/$16)× 100

= 62.5

B.

In 1984, Price of each bucket = $10

In 2005, Price of each bucket = $16

Percentage difference = price In 2005 - price in 1984/price in 1984 × 100

= (16 - 10)/10 × 100

=6/10×100

=60%

The price level rise by 60% from 1984 to 2005

C.

In 1984, total buckets of chicken produced= 10,000

In 2005, total buckets of chicken produced = 22000

real GDP in 1984 = total buckets of chicken produced × current price per bucket in 2005

= 10,000 × $16

= $160,000

real GDP in 2005 = total buckets of chicken produced in 2005 × current price per bucket in 2005

  = 22000 × $16

= $352,000

Net Income = $20,000

Initial Investment = $390,000

Annual rate of return is the ration of net income to the investment made in the project.

Annual rate of return = Annual net Income / Initial Investment  

Annual rate of return = ($20,000 / $390,000) x 100 = 5.13%
