Answer:
Suppose a senator considers introducing a bill to legislate a minimum hourly wage of $12.50.
Wage Labor Demanded Labor Supplied
$12.50 375,000 625,000
This will result in a surplus of labor (625,000 higher than 375,000)
Which of the following statements are true?
- Binding minimum wages cause structural unemployment. As with all price floors, a deadweight loss results, because the quantity supplied is much greater than the quantity demanded. In this case, the price of labor is the wage, and the deadweight loss = structural unemployment
-
In the absence of price controls, a surplus puts downward pressure on wages until they fall to the equilibrium.
Since a labor surplus exists, the price of labor should start to decrease in order to match the equilibrium price.
-
If the minimum wage is set at $12.50, the market will not reach equilibrium. The quantity supplied of labor is much greater than the quantity demanded for labor resulting in a surplus.

Answer:
a. 80,000 units
b. 95,000 units
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
a.The anticipated break-even sales (units) is
As we know that
Break even point in units = Total fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin per unit
= $27,600,000 ÷ $345
= 80,000 units
Where,
Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit
= $1,150 - $805
= $345
b. The units for realize operating income is
Unit sales for target profit = (Fixed expense + Target profit) ÷ Contribution margin per unit
= ($27,600,000 + $5,175,000) ÷ $345
= $32,775,000 ÷ $345
= 95,000 units

Inorder to also consider our customers, there is a free 20 pieces cake (box) offered to every customer who buys 50 box of each product.
