Answer:
The answer is 51,500 units
Explanation:
Break-even sales is a point in which a business or a firm neither make profit nor loss. Total Revenue equals total cost. Break-even sales help to know the point at which business starts to make profit.
Break-even sales is:
Fixed cost/contribution margin.
Where contribution margin is sales price per unit minus variable cost per unit.
In the question, variable cost are decreased by $3.
So the new variable cost is $21 - $3
=$18.
Contribution margin is $24 -$18
$6
Therefore, The break-even sales (units) if the variable costs are decreased by $3 is:
$309,000/$6
=51,500 units
Answer:
Markets are competitive.
Explanation:
In the competitive market, the number of sellers competed with each other in terms of prices, quality, maximize the market share.
In the given situation, various sellers are competed with each other for meeting out the consumer demands also at the same time it offers the goods at lowest cost and highest quality so that it capture the whole market
Therefore the second option is correct
Given:
<span>General pharmacy’s stock has a beta of 1.8 and an expected return of 14%,
Sicoras corp.’s stock has a beta of 1.5 and an expected return of 16.2%.
Let Rf stand for risk free rate.
Let Rm stand for expected market return.
General Pharmacy: 14% = Rf + 1.8(Rm-Rf)
Sicoras Corp.: 16.2% = Rf + 1.5(Rm-Rf)
0.14 = Rf + 1.8Rm - 1.8Rf
0.14 = Rf - 1.8Rf + 1.8Rm
0.14 = -0.8Rf + 1.8Rm
0.14 + 0.8Rf = 1.8Rm
Rm = 0.14/1.8 + 0.8Rf/1.8
Rm = 0.078 + 0.444Rf
</span><span>0.162 = Rf + 1.5(Rm-Rf)
</span>0.162 = Rf + 1.5[(0.078+0.444Rf) - Rf]
0.162 = Rf + 0.117 + 0.666Rf - 1.5Rf
0.162 - 0.117 = Rf + 0.666Rf - 1.5Rf
0.045 = 0.166Rf
0.045/0.166 = Rf
0.271 = Rf
<span>Rm = 0.078 + 0.444Rf
</span>Rm = 0.078 + 0.444(0.271)
Rm = 0.078 + 0.120
Rm = 0.198
Rf = 27.1% ; Rm = 19.8%
The risk free rate is 27.1% and the expected market return is 19.8%.
To check, simply substitute the value of Rf and Rm in the above equation.
