Answer:

134 books

Explanation:

The breakeven point is the number of units to be sold that will make the total sales equivalent with the total cost, such that the company neither makes a profit nor a loss.

Let the number of units sold to break even be c

5c = 1.25c + 500

5c - 1.25c = 500

3.75c = 500

c = 500/3.75

c = 133.33

≈ 134 books

Answer:

134 books

Explanation:

The formula used to calculate the break even point in units is:

break even point = total fixed costs / contribution margin

  • total fixed costs = $500
  • contribution margin = selling price - variable costs = $5 - $1.25 = $3.75

break even point = $500 / $3.75 = 133.3 books ≈ 134 books

break even point in units   = 3,300 units

Part 3) Company net income for the prior year

Net Income  = 2,990,000

Part 4) Break even point be if the price is changed

break even point in units = 4,875 units

Explanation:

Part 1) Compute the break even point in units.

break even point in units = Fixed Cost / Contribution per unit

                                            = 3,900,000/3100-1800

                                            = 3,000 units

Part 2) New break-even point be if fixed costs increase by 10 percent

break even point in units = Fixed Cost / Contribution per unit

                                            = 3,900,000×1.10/3100-1800

                                            = 3,300 units

Part 3) Company net income for the prior year

Net Income = Contribution - Fixed Cost

                     = 5300×(3100p-1800p)-3900000

                     = 2990000

Part 4) Break even point be if the price is changed

break even point in units = Fixed Cost / Contribution per unit

                                            = 3,900,000/2600-1800

                                            = 4,875 units

uranmaximum [27]

Currency,

= $620.00

Two checks,

= $113.30

and,

= $174.00

Cole has a cold. Although the brand-name drug is more expensive than the generic, he buys the brand-name one. Cole is familiar w
Semmy [17]

Answer:

<u>less risk</u>

Explanation:

Note: <u>The question appears to be incomplete. Another similar question has been attached for reference purpose and the answer provided herein is based upon that</u>.

It is common consumer behavior of sticking to a brand name despite another lower cost option providing the same base or constituent. Particularly in case of necessities, the law of demand i.e lower price higher demand fails as consumer would prefer being exposed to lesser risk no matter whatever be the cost.

In the given case, the consumer i.e Cole prefers going with a brand name as it provides him with a higher degree of assurance as the brand has a certain reputation attached to it which the other generic option lacks.

Secondly owing to his familiarity with the drug and it's past usage experience, he has developed brand loyalty apparently.

Thus, Cole's decision is attributable to <u>less risk.</u>
