The National debt is entirely represented by the total dollar amount of outstanding U.S. Treasury bonds, both those bonds that are held by the public (private citizens), or by other governments.

Currently, the U.S. National Debt is over 24 million, and the amount of debt that can be issued in the form of U.S. Treasury bonds is limited by the national debt ceiling.

Bobby Company has fixed costs of $160,000. The unit selling price, variable cost per unit, and contribution margin per unit for
V125BC [204]

Answer:

1,500 units; 1,000 units

Explanation:

Break Even Point (in units) = Fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin per unit

Fixed cost = $160,000

Sales Mix = 60% of X + 40% of Y

                = 0.6X + 0.4Y

So,

Contribution Margin of the Mix:

= (60% × contribution margin of X) + (40% × contribution margin of Y )

Contribution Margin of the Mix per unit:

= (60% × 80) + (40% × 40)

= 48 + 16

= $64

Break Even Point (in units) = Fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin per unit  

                                            = 160,000 ÷ 64

                                            = 2,500 unit

At the Level of break even :

Unit of X at break-even:

= 60% of 2,500

= 1,500 units

Unit of Y at break-even:

= 40% of 2,500

= 1,000 units

You currently own shares in Buckeye Mutual Fund (BMF). Your broker calls and recommends buying shares in a small-capitalization
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

Option D is the correct option

Explanation:

To find the optimal fund to combine with risk free rate of return, we will use Coefficient of variation,

Coefficient of variation(CoV) = Standard Deviation/Expected Return

CoV of Buckeye = 14%/20% = 0.7

CoV of Wolverine = 11%/12% = 0.9167

So, higher the CoV higher the risk, we will take Buckeye to combine with Risk Free Return.

Hence, Option A

- Required target return of portfolio = 22%

Risk Free return = 8%

Buckeye Return = 20%

Let the weight of Buckeye be X ,& weight of risk free be (1-X)

Required return = (WRF)*(RRF) + (WB)*(RB)

22 = (1-X)(8) + (X)(20)

22 = 8-8X + 20X

14 = 12X

X = 1.17

SO, weight of Buckeye is 1.17 or 117%

while weight of Risk free is -0.17 (1-1.17) or -17%

Hence, ans is OPTION D

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer: 5

Explanation: C

Consumer surplus is the difference between the quantity that a consumer is eager to pay for any product and the amount that he or she really ends up paying for that commodity. In this question Melanie was expecting to pay $79.95 when she saw the tag. Later she came to know that the coat was on a sale and she would have to pay 20% less. She finally paid $63.96 that is $15.99 less than the stated price $15.99. Thus, $15.99 is the consumers' surplus.

1.) Ocean City Kite Company manufactures &amp; sells kites for $6.50 each. The variable cost per kite is $3.50 with the current
Brut [27]

Answer:

$270,000

Explanation:

Contribution per kite = $6.50 - $3.50 = $3.00

Break even point = 90,000 kites

Since;

Break even point = Fixed cost / Contribution per kite.

We have:

90,000 = Fixed cost / $3.00

Fixed cost = 90,000 * $3.00 = $270,000

Therefore, Ocean City Kite Company's fixed costs is $270,000.
