Answer:

The answer is: B) The median wage in Texas is much higher than the national average. THIS STATEMENT IS FALSE.

Explanation:

If you take the facts from the Census ACS 1 year survey, the median household income in Texas is $59,206 (2017 data) and a median hourly wage of $17,06 (2016 data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics).

If you compare those numbers with the national average, the US median household income is $60,336 (the national average is $1,130 higher than the Texas median household income). Historically the Texas median household income has been lower than the national average.

If we consider the median hourly wage in Texas of $17,06 (2016 data) and we compare to the national hourly wage of $17,81 (2016 data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics) we can clearly see it´s also lower. The top ten states with the highest median hourly wage are: Alaska, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Washington, Maryland, New York, New Jersey, California, Minnesota, Hawaii, with hourly wages ranging from $22.68 to $19.24

For the coming year, Belton Company estimates fixed costs of $60,000, the unit variable cost of $25, and the unit selling price

NeTakaya

Answer:

1. Break even point in units = 2,400 units

2. Sales required = 6,400 units

3. Operating income = $140,000

Explanation:

Given:

Fixed costs = $60,000

Variable cost =$25 per unit

Selling price = $50 per unit

Computation:

1. Break-even point in units of sales.

Contribution per unit = sales - VC

Contribution per unit = $50 - $25

Contribution per unit = $25

Break even point in units = Fixed costs / Contribution per unit

Break even point in units = $60,000 / $25

Break even point in units = 2400 units

2. Unit sales required to realize operating income = $100,000

Sales required = (Fixed costs + Operating income) / Contribution per unit

Sales required = ($60,000 + $100,000) / $25

Sales required = 6400 units

3. Operating income if sales total = $400,000

Contribution margin = [$25/ $50]100 = 50%

Operating income = Contribution margin - Fixed costs

Operating income = ($400,000 × 50%) - $60,000

Operating income = $140,000

Coca-Cola's worldwide sales as of December 31, 2011, was 26.7 billion cases. Assume the following sales distribution:

kondaur [170]

Answer:

Assuming the same rate that Coca Cola's did in Germany between 1939 and 2008 and the same volume distribution of 2011 cases sales, then hypothetically sales in Germany in 2053 would be 226 bilion cases.

Explanation:

Taking the Coca Cola's worldwide growth the same rate that Coca Cola's grew in Germany between 1939 and 2008, that is 10.26% per, then for the 26.7 billion from today up to the 2053 year we would have:

S = 26.7 billion * (1.1026)^42 = 1614 billion cases

If we use volume distribution of the year 2011, then sales in Germany would be:

SG = 1614 billion cases * 14 % = 226 billion cases

The organization's leadership should establish the flow-down objectives to set the stage for establishing the guiding principles

NemiM [27]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": False.

Explanation:

The flow-down in management represents the activities executives perform when each individual department establishes their objectives and they are reported to the next level in the hierarchy department so the manager of that department approves or modifies it to align the overall organization's goals.

Setting the corporation's vision and mission is not part of this approach.
