Answer:

$19

Explanation:

The computation of financial advantage (disadvantage) is shown below:-

Combined sale value =  Industrial fiber + Refined sugar

= $71 + $71

= $142

Further processing = End product industrial fiber + End product refined sugar

= $23 + $27

= $50

Financial Advantage = Combined sale value - Further processing - Sugar beets costs - cost to crush

= $142 - $50 - $57 - $16

= $19

Target profit a.are when sales and costs are exactly equal. b.can be calculated by modifying the break-even equation. c.equals d
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

b. can be calculated by modifying the break-even equation.

Explanation:

As the name implies, target profit can be explained to be the certain amount a business enterprise or a business organisation targets to hit at the end of its sales or at the end of her business dealings.

It can be easily seen in a cash flow planning as it is once modified to approximate cash flow, and also used for revealing expected results to investors and lenders. In all that it is been used for, in the scenario above, it also can be calculated by modifying the break-even equation, and deriving more conservative budgeting packages in business development too.

Adjust the contribution margin per unit and units sold based on an expected sales promotion.

Alter the fixed cost total and the contribution margin per unit for the effects of outsourcing production.

Alter the contribution margin for the effects of changing to a just-in-time production system.

If there is continually a large unfavorable variance between the target and actual profit, it may be necessary to examine the system used to derive the target profit,

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

Kevin has analyzed the situation well. However, he should also consider the fact that he saved $10 by only purchasing the shirt.

Opportunity cost is the cost of the forgone alternative. Out of the 3 choices, he only purchased 1 of the choices, the opportunity cost are the other two choices. However, he is still capable of buying the flip-flops costing $10 but he chose not to do so. He should consider it as a savings aside from it being a lost opportunity.

Which of the following actions has NO impact on your credit score?
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
When you inquire about a credit card charge, then it has no impact on your credit score. The correct option among all the options given in the question is option "A". Nowhere around the world can there be any rules that can deduct the credit rating of a person for inquiring about a credit card charge. It would be absolutely ridiculous.
