Answer:
One-way commute times may be long because affordable housing is distant from the job.
A working spouse could affect all three variables.
People might be very satisfied with their career as long as the income is high.
People may have a career following their passion, but have a low income or a long commute.
Explanation:
As we know that the study in college for graduation generally includes the three types of variables i.e. level of the income, job satisfaction and the one way commute
Now there are some ways that may be cofounded such as the one way commute could belong as if the house is far from the job, for the working spouse the above three variables could be impacted, when the income of the people are high they feel very satisfied and they follow their passion but they have the low income or long commute travelled at the same time
Answer:
Contribution margin per unit = Sales price per unit – Variable cost per unit
$2 - $1.20=$0.80
The contribution margin per package is $ 0.80.
Breakeven sales in units = Fixed expenses + Operating income ) / Contribution margin per unit $85,000 + $22,000/0.80 = 133,750 packages
Contribution margin per package = $2 - $1.00 = $1.00
Breakeven sales in units = Fixed expenses + Operating income ) / Contribution margin per unit
$100,000 + $22,000/$1= 122,000 packages
The firm will have to sell 122,000 packages to generate $22,000 of operating income. Socks unlimited would have to sell 11,750 less packages of socks to earn $22,000 of operating income. The increase in fixed costs was completely offset by the decrease in variable costs at the prior target profit volume of sales. Therefore, the firm will need to sell less units in order to achieve its target profit level.
Calculation of Direct Material Budget for the month of July:
Budgeted production (Units) for July 5,000
Material required per unit (pounds) 3
Material requirement for July (pounds) = (5000 units * 3 pounds) 15,000
Add: Ending material inventory (5300 units * 3 pounds* 30%) 4,770
Less: Beginning material inventory 4,500
Direct Material Purchase (Pounds) (15000+4770-4500) = 15,270
Cost per pound of Metrial ($) $6.00
Direct Material Purchase ($) (15270 pounds * $6) = $91,620
Answer:
b. 6 pairs of jeans per crate of olives; and
c. 4 pairs of jeans per crate of olives
Explanation:
Olives Jeans Trade off Ratio (Olives:Jeans)
Spain 1 3 1:3 or 0.33:1 (1/3 = 0.33)
Denmark 1 11 1:11 or 0.09:1 (1/11= 0.09)
Spain & Denmark have less opportunity cost & hence comparative advantage than each other, in Olive & Jeans respectively.
Spain will export Olives to Denmark (importer). Denmark will export Jeans to Spain (Importer). Trade will be gainful if they get exchange ratio better than domestic exchange ratio.
- '2 jeans pairs per olive crate' not gainful trade ratio for Spain, as it is getting more i.e 3 jeans pair per olive crate at its own domestic ratio.
- '13 jeans per olive' not gainful for Denmark, as 0.07 = (1/13) olive per jeans is worse than its own domestic ratio i.e 0.09 = (1/11) olive per jeans
'4 jeans pairs per olive crate' is gaining trade ratio for:
- Spain: As it gets 4 i.e more than 3 pairs of jeans per olive crate
- Denmark : As it gets 0.25 = (1/4) i.e more than 0.09 olive crates per pair of jeans
'6 jeans pairs per olive crate' is gaining trade ratio for:
- Spain: As it gets 6 i.e more than 3 pairs of jeans per olive crate
- Denmark : As it gets 0.16 = (1/6) i.e more than 0.09 olive crates per pair of jeans
Both of them are gainful trade ratios, but:
- 1olive:4 jeans is more gainful for Denmark, as it is gaining relatively more than domestic exchange rate (0.25 is more > 0.09 than 4 > 3).
- 1olive:6jeans is more gainful for Spain as it is gaining relatively more than domestic exchange rate (6 is more > 3 than 0.16 > 0.09)
