Answer:
GDP grew by $2,200
Explanation:
G<em>ross domestic product (GDP) which is the total market value of all the final goods and services produced in a country over a given period of time. The GDP can be calculated using the value added approach.</em>
Here the GPD figure is ascertained by summing the amount of additional value created by each factor of production at each stage of the production process of the final product.
<em>Only the values added are summed, the cost of the inputs or intermediate goods are not included</em>
<em>In this question, the final value of $2200 represents the amount by which the GDP has increased in the period. This also can be verified using the value-added approach as follows</em>
Value added($)
Gold miner - 600
Mining company : 1000 -600 = 400
Jewerlry maker :1600 - 1000 = 600
Departmental store :2200 -1600 = <u>600</u>
Total value added <u>2,200</u>
Answer:
Number of units that must be sold to earn the target profit is 3000 units.
The contribution margin ratio is 0.70
Explanation:
We will use the break even analysis modified for target profit to calculate the number of units needed to earn the desired
The break even point in units is calculated by dividing the fixed cost by the contribution margin per unit. To calculate the number of units required to earn the desired profit, we add the desired profit to fixed cost and divide it by the contribution margin per unit.
Contribution margin per unit = 250 - 75 = $175
Number of units required to earn target profit = (325000 + 200000) / 175
Number of units required to earn target profit = 3000 units
The contribution margin ratio is = 175 / 250 = 0.7 or 70%
Dollar Sales required to earn target profit = $4,812,500
