Answer:

decrease by $16,000

Explanation:

We know that,

The net income = Sales - variable cost - fixed expense

The sales = Sales units × selling price per unit

                = 50,000 boxes × $25

                =  $1,250,000

The variable cost = Sales units × variable cost per unit

                             = 50,000 boxes × $17

                             =  $850,000

And, the fixed cost is  $260,000

So, the net income would equal to

= $1,250,000 - $850,000 -  $260,000

= $140,000

Since, the sales units are increased by $24,000 units, so new sales units is 74,000 units

And, the sales per unit is decreased by 2 So, new sales per unit is $23

So, the new sales

= Sales units × selling price per unit

= $74,000 × $23 = $1,702,000

The variable cost = Sales units × variable cost per unit

So, the new variable cost equals to

= 74,000 units × $17

= $1,258,000

And the fixed expense would increased by the $60,000 so new fixed cost is $320,000

So, the new net income would be equal to

= $1,702,000 - $1,258,000  - 320,000

= $124,000

If we compare these two net income, then the difference would be

=  $140,000 -  $124,000

= $16,000 decrease

Describe at least three exchange rate factors that are likely to attract foreign investors to a country's currency. Explain why
lana66690 [7]

Answer: 1. High Interest

2. Low Government Debt

3. Political Stability

Explanation:

Foreign Investors are Investors and investors always like to invest where there are prospects of growth and profit.

High Interest Rates give them the opportunity to invest their money in a currency that will give them a great return because a country where there are high interest rates imparts this on its currency which causes it to rise in value thereby giving currency holders a capital gain.

Another factor is Government Debt. A country with high Government debt will typically be unable to raise funds through the bond market easily. This shortage of funds can lead to inflation which devalues currency causing foreign currency investors to flee.

Finally there is the Political Factor (other factors exist). A stable country politically stands a better chance of maintaining a higher value currency that one with lower political stability. This is because political Stability attracts investors and as more investments come into a country, this reflects in its currency by making it stronger which will attract foreign currency investors.
