Answer:
No, their economic cost of enrolling in the business program is not the same for both,
Explanation:
The explicit costs of going back to college are the same for Walter and Jesse, e.g. they might be $20,000 per year, or even $30,000 doesn't matter for this analysis. But Walter is currently working as a teacher and that means taht if he decides to go to college, his implicit costs will include the forgone salary as a teacher which is $50,000 per year. Implicit costs are opportunity costs, i.e. additional costs or benefits lost from choosing one activity or investment instead of another alternative.

Answer:
The total fixed costs must be:
$36,000.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Contribution margin ratio for the new product = 0.2
Target operating income = $60,000
Targeted sales volume in dollars = $480,000
Fixed costs = targeted sales volume in dollars multiplied by contribution margin ratio, minus target operating income
Fixed costs = ($480,000 * 0.2) - $60,000 = $36,000
b) The focus should be on the break-even formula for dollar sales with a target profit. When the formula is reversed, the fixed costs can be calculated as shown above.
