Answer:

The answer is a): 38%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Contribution margin ratio is a ratio of the difference between sales and variable costs/expenses, to the sales; it can be expressed in percentage.

Sales = $425,000

Variable costs = 62% of $425,000 = 62 × $425,000 ÷ 100 = $263,500 .

The difference between sales and variable cost = $425,000 — $263,500 = $161,500 .

Therefore, the contribution margin ratio = $161,500 ÷ $425,000 = 0.38

The contribution margin ratio expressed in percentage = 0.38 × 100 = 38% .

In an internal operating income statement, the form is as such:

(1) Sales (or Revenue) - Total Variable Costs = Contribution Margin;

(2) Contribution Margin - Total Fixed Costs = Operating Income

and

(3) Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution Margin/Sales

The first equation helps us out. Sales is the whole amount for this statement, or 100%. We know variable costs are 62% and the rest goes to the Cont. Margin.

100% - 68% = 32% (choice A)

Determine the radius of convergence of the following power series. Then test the endpoints to determine the interval of converge
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

Radius of the convergence is R = \frac{1}{21}

and,

The Interval of convergence is -\frac{1}{21}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function : Σ(21x)^k

Now,

Using the ratio test, we have

R = \lim_{n \to \infty} |\frac{21x^{k+1}}{21x^{k}}|

or

R = \lim_{n \to \infty} |\frac{21x^{k}\times21x^{1}}{21x^{k}}|

or

R = \lim_{n \to \infty} |21x^{1}|

now,

for convergence R|x| < 1

Therefore,

\lim_{n \to \infty} |21x^{1}| < 1

or

-\frac{1}{21}

and,

Radius of the convergence is R = \frac{1}{21}

and,

The Interval of convergence is -\frac{1}{21}
