Answer:
The correct statement is: "The fixed cost per unit will decrease when volume increases."
Explanation:
Total fixed costs remain the same within a relevant range, but the <em>fixed cost per unit</em> decreases as production increases, because the same fixed costs are spread over more units produced.
Answer:
The economic incentive was to produce enough to meet the output target, without regard for quality or cost.
Explanation:
As the only condition for the payment to the producers is linked with the output thus there is no constraint for the quality and the sales of the product. This indicated that the producer will get the reward irrespective whether the quality or cost of the product is feasible or not.
Answer:
19%
Explanation:
Given that,
Nominal GDP in 2010 = $200 billion
Nominal GDP in 2009 = $180 billion
GDP deflator in 2010 = 125
GDP deflator in 2009 = 105
Percentage change in prices:
= Percentage change in GDP deflator
= (Change in GDP deflator ÷ GDP deflator in 2009) × 100
= [(125 - 105) ÷ 105] × 100
= (20 ÷ 105) × 100
= 0.19 × 100
= 19%
Therefore, the prices increases by 19%.
When the bonds will mature, the company will receive, maturity value plus the interest earned on the bonds.
The maturity value will be the par value, as nothing is given, the bonds are redeemed at par value i.e. $ 46,000.
The interest income will be calculated as -
Interest Income = 7 % * $ 46,000 = $ 3,220
Thus, the total cash proceeds = $ 46,000 + $ 3,220 = $ 49,220
Answer:
D. Contribution margin would be equal to total fixed costs
Explanation:
As we know that
break even point is the point at which the firm is earning no profit or no loss suffered
In equation, it is
Total cost = Total revenues
In addition,
The contribution margin = Sales - variable expenses
Therefore
The contribution margin = Fixed cost = break even point
If we subtract the contribution margin from the fixed cost the amount should be zero which implies the break even point
