Answer:

Alaska  =   46.99 units

Best buy = 58.34 units

Ford Motor =  584.11 units

Explanation:

<em>To determine the unit of each class of stock to purchase, we wll multiply each of the percentages by the total fund to be arrive the proportion of fund to be invested in each class. </em>

<em>Further more, we will  divide the allocated amount by the share price  per unit</em>

Shares to be purchased to have the given proportion would be '

Alaska (20%)  =(20%× 10,000)/42.56=       46.99 units

Best buy (30%)   = (30% × 10,000)/ 51.42 = 58.34 units

Ford Motor (50%) = (50% × 10,000)/ 8.56 =  584.11 units

sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

Ans. C) 208 grandfather clocks to break even

Explanation:

Hi, First, let´s introduce the Break-even point (BEP) in units equation that we need to use.

BEP=\frac{FixedCosts}{(Price-VarCost)} =[units]

Therefore, our solution has to look like this:

BEP(Units)=\frac{96,000}{(625-164)} =208(rounded)

So, in order to break-even, this company has to sell 208 clocks each year.

Note. 208 was the value obtained when the answer was rounded to the nearest unit.

If you´d like to know how much is that in dollars, you just go ahead and multiply the price by 208 and you will get.

BEP(dollars)=208Units*\frac{625Dollars}{Unit} =130,000

Best of luck.

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

Before a large corporation makes any investment decision, they carry out a cost benefit analysis. In other words, before the banks install clear acrylic partitions, they will decide if the cost of installing those partitions offset the costs of the robberies. The problem with this reasoning is that all banks have insurance against robberies, so if they are robbed the insurance company pays them. So installing the partitions do not represent a lot of benefits for the bank, but they are expensive and represent a large investment. The only way that banks install them is that insurance companies force them to do so.
