<u>Solution and Explanation:</u>
Breakeven point = Fixed cost divide by Contribution margin
Contribution margin = Sales minus Variable cost.
Fixed cost
Particular Amount
Salaries $5000
Utilities $1100
Depreciation $1200
Maintenance $780
Total Fixed cost = $8,080.
Variable cost =Maid services plus Other cost = $7 plus $13 = $20
Contribution = $40 minus $20 = $20.
Breakeven point in number = $8080 divide 20 = 404 rented rooms per month.
Breakeven point in $ = Breakeven point rented rooms × rent cost.
=> 404 rooms multiply $40 = $16,160.
Answer:
The answer is: A) some people win, some people lose, and there is a loss of economic efficiency.
Explanation:
When the government imposes a price ceiling, some consumers win since they buy cheaper products (lower than equilibrium price) but suppliers lose. Inf the government decides a price floor is better, then customers will lose and some suppliers will win (prices are higher than equilibrium price).
Both price ceilings and price floors cause deadweight loss, decreasing economic efficiency.
Explanation:
Breads such as bagels and pretzels are made by boiling them first because boiling sets the crust before it is placed in the oven. The starch on the exterior quickly gels and forms a barrier. This keeps the water from penetrating very far into the bread. Bagels are usually boiled for 30 to 60 seconds per side.
The Federal Open Market Committee can act almost immediately.
