Answer:

the firm should shut down, at least temporarily until the marginal revenue increases or definitely if the marginal revenue doesn't increase

Explanation:

if average total costs = $6 and average fixed costs = $2, then average variable costs = $6 - $2 = $4

since the average variable costs are higher than marginal revenue: $4 > $3, then the company is losing money (-$1) every time it sells its products.

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

B. The operating leverage for Turner now is 0.47  ⇒ TRUE

operating leverage = fixed costs / total costs = $240,000 / $510,000 = 0.47

C. Turner makes a contribution of $0. 57 per dollar of revenue, on the average.  ⇒ TRUE

total contribution margin = ($20 x 9,000) + ($30 x 6,000) = $180,000 + $180,000 = $360,000

total revenue = $630,000

contribution margin per $ of revenue = $360,000 / $630,000 = $0.57

D. Turner will break even when it reaches a revenue of $420,000.  ⇒ TRUE

break even point in $ = (6,000 x $30) + (4,000 x $60) = $180,000 + $240,000 = $420,000

Explanation:

A. 40% of Turner's revenue comes from P2  ⇒ FALSE

total revenue = $270,000 + $360,000 = $630,000

revenue from P2 = $360,000, which represents 57.14% of total revenue

E. The breakeven volume for Turner is 9,334 units ⇒ FALSE

in order to calculate break even point, we can prepare a bundle of products = 3P1 + 2P2

contribution margin per bundle = $120

break even point = $240,000 / $120 = 2,000 bundles

6,000 P1 and 4,000 P2

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

Hammer would prevail against Kay based on:_______.

A. Unilateral contract.

Explanation:

A unilateral contract is a contract created by an offer that can only be accepted by performance. To form the contract, the party making the offer (called the “offeror”) makes a promise in exchange for the act of performance by the other party.

in relation to the case in the contract, Hammer had carried out the duties expected of him thus making the contract valid under a unilateral contract.  

since in a unilateral contract, the offer can only be accepted when the other party completely performs the requested action.

Hence  Hammer would prevail against Kay based on Unilateral contract.
