Answer:

Option C Incorrect; adjusting for price changes, his salary is less than his dad's salary  

Explanation:

Adjustment to price changes = (Amount received n years ago divided by Price Index n years ago) * Price Index today

Adjustment To price changes = ($28,000 / 110.8) * 180.5 = $45613.7

The amount $28,000 is worth $45,613.7 in todays value which means that if we adjust for price changes, Dave is incorrect because his salary is worth less by an amount $613.7 from his father's salary.

Answer: C. incorrect adjusting for price changes, his salary is less than his dad's salary

Explanation:

We need to calculate the inflation rate and then adjust  Dad's salary

Inflation = (180.5 - 110.8)/110.8 = 0.629061371 = 62.91%

Dad's Salary adjusted for inflation = $ 28000 x 1.6291 =45614.80

Dad,s salary of $28000 years ago is higher than Dave's starting salary of $45000 t years ago

Kuzio Corporation produces and sells a single product. Data concerning that product appear below: Per Unit Percent of Sales Sell
avanturin [10]

Answer:

The company's monthly net operating income increases $4,600

Explanation:

The company is currently selling 6,000 units per month:

Total sales = $130 x 6,000 = $780,000

Total Variable expenses = $78 x 6,000 = $468,000

Net operating income = Total sales - Total Variable expenses - Fixed expenses = $780,000 - $468,000  - $184,000 = $128,000

If Kuzio Corporation increases in the monthly advertising budget of $5,800:

Total sales = $130 x 6,200 = $806,000

Total Variable expenses = $78 x 6,200 = $483,600

Fixed expenses = $184,000 + $5,800 = $189,800

Net operating income = $806,000 - $483,600 - $189,800 = $132,600

The company's monthly net operating income increases = $132,600 - $128,000 = $4,600
