Answer:

gross profit ratio = (total revenue - cost of goods sold) / total revenue

I looked for the missing information:

year                    total sales                   cost of goods sold

2012                    $7,175                            $4,365

2013                    $8,052                           $5,140

2014                    $8,268                           $5,370

   

a)

gross profit ratio:

2012 = ($7,175 - $4,365) / $7,175 = 39.16%

2013 = ($8,052 - $5,140) / $8,052 = 36.16%

2014 = ($8,268 - $5,370) / $8,268 = 35.05%

b)

since the gross profit margin ratio is decreasing every year, we can assume that it will keep decreasing in 2015. Using linear regression, the slope is -0.02055. So the estimated gross profit margin ratio for 2015 = 34.33%

estimated cogs (first four months of 2015) = $527 billion x (1 - 34.33%) = $346.08 billion

estimated gross profit (first four months of 2015) = $527 billion x 34.33% = $180.92 billion

$855x10=$8,550.

How much to have paid back

At the end of 10years $8,550 would have been paid as interest

Total sum will be $14,250+$8,550=$22,800 to be paid back.

Yesterday, an automobile dealership sold exactly 15 vehicles for a total of $225,000. Did at least one of the vehicles sell for
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

Option A is correct

Explanation:

In the question above, we have:

  • 15 vehicles sold for $225,000, therefore, the average price was $225,000/15 = $15,000

A. The median price for the 15 vehicles was $13,000.

If the median price was $13,000, this means that half the cars were at that price or below. For every car that was below $13,000, there has to be a car above $17,000 to balance it out, to make the average stay at $15,000. If half the cars are below $13,000 and the highest cars are not above $16,500, then it would not be possible to have an average of $15,000. This statement implies that at least one car is above $17,000, and therefore has to be above $16,500. This answers to the question. This statement is sufficient.
