Answer:

a. 7,900

b. 10,100

Explanation:

As for the provided information,

We know at break even point taxes shall be = 0 as there are no profits and no losses.

a. At break even: = \frac{Fixed\ Cost}{Contribution}

Fixed Cost = $308,100

Contribution per unit = Selling price - Variable cost = $79 - $40 = $39

Therefore, break even units = \frac{308,100}{39} = 7,900 smokers

b. In case the company wants a profit of $51,480 after tax @ 40% then,

Earnings before taxes = \frac{51,480}{1 - 0.4} = $85,800

Therefore, number of units = \frac{Fixed\ Cost + Profit\ before\ tax}{Contribution\ per\ unit}

= \frac{308,100 + 85,800}{39} = 10,100

dybincka [34]

Answer:

1. What is the Commerce Clause?

The Commerce Clause refers to the power held by Congress to regulate interstate commerce. Individual states can regulate commerce that takes place within their territory, but they cannot regulate trade between entities from their state and entities from other states.

2. Will the Arizona regulation withstand Commerce Clause scrutiny? Why or why not?

This is an actual court case and the US Supreme Court ruled against Arizona's regulation because it interferes with interstate commerce. The cantaloupes that Bruce Church produced were supposed to be sold in California, that means that 2 states are involved. The Commerce Clause applies whenever trade between 2 states are involved. An individual state's regulations cannot result in a burden for businesses engaged in interstate commerce.
