Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

(A) $731,250

Explanation:

The formula to compute the break-even point in sales dollars is shown below:

= (Fixed expenses or Fixed cost) ÷ (Contribution ratio)

where,

Contribution ratio = Contribution margin ÷ sales

= $208,000 ÷ $650,000

= 0.32 or 32%

And, the fixed expense is $234,000

Now put the values to the above formula

So, the value would equal to

= $234,000 ÷ 32%

= $731,250

The demand for good X is estimated to be Qxd = 10,000 − 4PX + 5PY + 2M + AX where PX is the price of X, PY is the price of good

Olenka [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given the equation ; Qxd = 10,000 − 4PX + 5PY + 2M + AX

where PX is the price of X = $50

PY is the price of good Y = $100

M is income = $25,000

and AX is the amount of advertising on X = 1,000 units

a) Calculate the quantity demanded of good X ; Plugging all the values into the equation ;

= 10,000 − 4(50) + 5(100) + 2(25,000) + 1000

Qxd = 61,300units

b) Calculate the own price elasticity of demand for good ;

= d(Qxd)/dpx X px/Qxd = -4 x 50/61,300

= 0.0033. hence he demand for goods is inelastic

c) l will surely recommend lowering the price as this is evident from the value of the price elasticity of demand which is negative as such an increase in the price of their goods will give rise to total loss

d ) cross-price elasticity between goods X and Y = %change in quantity/ %change in price

e) Calculate the income elasticity of good X. Is good X normal or an inferior good? = dQ/dM X M/Q = 2(25000) /61300

= 0.82.

Yes! Good X is a normal goods since the value of the income elasticity is positive.
