Answer:
29,143
Explanation:
Profit target = 25% on sales
Fixed cost = $51,000
Variable cost = $9.50 per unit
Sales price per unit = $15
To achieve profit target, let the number of units sold be y
Total sales = 15y
Total variable cost = 9.5y
Profit = 0.25 × 15y
= 3.75y
Sales - Cost = profit
15y - (51000 + 9.5y) = 3.75y
15y - 9.5y - 3.75y = 51000
1.75y = 51000
y = 51000/1.75
y = 29143
29,143 bears must be sold to meet the profit goal.

Answer: $8,400
Explanation:
Given the following:
Amount repaid each month = $150
Number of Periods for which amount was paid = 10 months
Amount left after 10 months payment = $6900
Harry's original debt=?
The total amount paid = $150 × 10 = $1500
Amount left = $6900
Total debt amount:
(Total Amount left + total amount paid )
$(6900 + 1500)
=$8400
