Criticism can be looked at in many different perspectives. Criticizing on one subject by looks may not bother you, but criticism about your athletic ability might make you feel negative about yourself. For me personally, I attempt to ignore the criticism and if not I express it to my friends.
Answer:
6. a)
total fixed costs = $600,000
product mix:
1 Diablo: 2 Call of Duty: 3 Sekiro: 4 Starcraft II
Contribution margin per unit:
- Diablo = $55 - $22 = $33
- Call of Duty = $48 - 17 = $31
- Sekiro = $33 - $12 = $21
- Starcraft = $22 - $11 = $11
Contribution margin per product mix = $33 + (2 x $31)) + (3 x $21) + (4 x $11) = $172
break even number (in product mix) = $600,000 / $172 = 3,488.37 ≈ 3,489 product mixes
6.b)
- Diablo = 3,489 games
- Call of Duty = 3,489 x 2 = 6,978 games
- Sekiro = 3,489 x 3 = 10,467 games
- Starcraft = 3,489 x 4 = 13,956 games
Answer:
Steve Jobs coming back, Innovations, and Tim Cook taking over as COO
Explanation:
The fluctuations in stock prices of a company are due to improved performance of the company in meeting it's objectives and perception that the business will do better in the future.
In the given scenario there was an initial increase in Apple’s stock price from $27.97 to $702.10, an increase of 25 times.
This can be attributed to the return of Steve Jobs as the CEO of Apple. There was a confidence boost by his coming back. Also there were various innovations like: iPhone, iMac, iPod, and iTunes. These improved the performance and by extension share price of Apple.
However when Tim Cook took over as COO he reduced production by half resulting in stock price decrease by 37% from its peak in September 2012 until the end of March 2013, from $702.10 to $442.66.
Answer:
4 million houses
Explanation:
Opportunity cost is the forfeited benefit as a result of choosing one option over others. Its value equals the cost of the next best alternative.
The cost of constructing a new home is $150,000. If the Federal Defence has a budget of $600 billion, the opportunity cost of spending that amount will be the equivalent number of units that can be built by the amount.
To calculate the number of units= $600 billion divided by $150,000
= $600,000,000,000/ $150,000
=4,000,000
=4 million units
Answer: $1.50
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, we are informed that the variable cost of each box is $1.50 and usually has a contribution margin of $0.80 per box.
We should note that the minimum transfer price that the box division should find as acceptable will be the relevant cost. In this case, the relevant cost is given as $1.50 pee box and therefore, the minimum transfer price will be $1.50.
