Answer:
- $25.50
- 90,000 units
- 140,000 units
Explanation:
1. Current contribution margin ratio
= (Selling price - Variable cost)/ Selling price
= (25 - 19.8) / 25
= 0.208
New Direct labor = 5.0 * ( 1 + 8%)
= $5.40
New variable cost = 19.8 + 0.4 = $20.20
To maintain 0.208
0.208 = (Selling price - 20.20) / Selling price
0.208 * Price = Price - 20.20
0.208Price - Price = -20.20
-0.792Price = -20.20
Price = -20.20/-0.792
Price = $25.50
2. Breakeven = Fixed Cost / Contribution Margin
Contribution Margin = Selling price - Variable cost
= 25 - 19.8
= $5.20
= 468,000/5.2
= 90,000 units
3. To earn $260,000;
= (Fixed Cost + 260,000) / Contribution margin
= (468,000 + 260,000) /5.2
= 140,000 units
Answer:
(a) $700
(b) $5.50
Explanation:
Weekly fixed costs = $6,000
Weekly Total meals = Average customers per day × No. of days
= 500 × 6
= 3,000
Fixed cost per meal = Weekly fixed costs ÷ Weekly Total meals
= $6,000 ÷ 3,000
= $2
(a) Lowest price in total = Number of customers × Variable costs for each meal
= 200 × $3.50
= $700
(b) Lowest price = Variable costs for each meal + Fixed cost per meal
= $3.50 + $2
= $5.50

ANSWER
The correct option is D.
A socialist system is a type of economic system in which the factors of production are jointly owned by all the citizens and production affair is regulated by the government. Such a country does not encourage individuals to operate personal business. Thus, such a country will lay high tax on the income of the manager in order to discourage him from selling his machine in their country.
