How are business entrepreneurs and social entrepreneurs different?

2 answers:

Business entrepreneurs risk their own money to try make a profit. The company does not necessarily create a product to solve a social problem.

Social entrepreneurs often have borrowed capital to solve a social problem. They don't necessarily have to make a profit. Their focus is to solve a social problem, such as pollution, poverty, or crime.

Both approaches fulfill a need in the market and aim to earn a sustainable profit. The main difference is that social entrepreneurship focuses beyond simply generating a profit, and measures its performance on the positive impact the business makes on society – whether social, cultural or environmental.

The Akron Slugger Company produces various types of wooden baseball bats. It has calculated the average cost per unit of a produ

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

$\arge\boxed{\large\boxed{\$ 117,788}}$

Explanation:

Assume the cost equation to be:

$Cost(x)=Fixed\text{ }costs+Variable\text{ }costs\\\\Cost(x)=A+Bx$

Where $x$ is the number of units (wooden baseball bats) produced.

The average cost per unit of production level is the total cost divided by the number of units produced:

$Average\text{ }cost(x)=Cost(x)/x\\\\Average\text{ }cost(x)=(A+Bx)/x\\$

You are given that the average cost per unit of a production level of 7,700 bats is $14, then:

$14=(A+7,700B)/7,700$

You are also given that the fixed costs are $22,500, thus A = 22,500. Hence, you can substitute the value of A in the previous equation and find B:

$14=(22,500+7,700B)/7,700\\\\14\times 7,700=22,500+7,700B\\\\107,800-22,500=7,700B\\\\85,300/7,700=B\\\\B=11.08$

Now you can complete the cost equation:

$Cost(x)=\$ 22,500+11.08x$

And to predict the total costs for 8,600 bats you must subsitute x with 8,600 in the previous equation:

$Cost(8,600)=\$ 22,500+11.08(8,600)=\$ 117,788$

B. Yes

Explanation:

Computation of the times interest earned ratios for 2016 and 2015

First step is to find the EBIT

EBIT: 2016 $ 2015 $

Gross profit 44,500 58,400

Less Selling, General and Administrative expenses (36,900) (38,800)

EBIT 7,600 19,600

Second step is to compute the times interest earned ratios for 2016 and 2015 using this formula

Time interest earned = EBIT / Interest expense

Let plug in the formula

Time interest earned 2016 2015

EBIT $7,600 $19,600

÷Interest expense $590 $520

=Time interest earned 12.9 37.7

Therefore the Time interest earned will be :

2015 37.7

2016 12.9

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

The journal entry is as follows:

On September 30,

Bonds payable A/c Dr. $1,000,000

Loss on bonds retirement A/c Dr. $20,000

To Discount on bond $10,000

To cash A/c $1,010,000

(To record the bonds payable and retirement)

Workings:

Loss on bonds retirement:

= (Cash + Discount on bonds) - Par value of callable bonds

= ($1,010,000 + $10,000) - $1,000,000

= $1,020,000 - $1,000,000

= $20,000
