Answer:

See answer below

Explanation:

1. The break even point for flowers = Fixed costs / Contribution margin

Where contribution margin = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit

= $500,000 / ($20 - $10)

= $500,000 / $10

= 50,000 units

Therefore,

Break even point for the Mugger is 50,000 units.

Break even points for Dogs = Fixed costs ÷ Contribution margin

= $500,000 / ($25 -$20)

= $500,000 / $5

= 100,000 units

Break even points Sports = Fixed costs / Contribution margin

= $500,000 / ($10 - $6)

= $500,000 / $4

= 125,000 units

2. I can recommend that the mugger should change its product mix from 1:4:2 (Flowers, dogs, sports) to 4:2:1 (Flowers , dogs , sports)

• Because there is an increase in the break even points for each of the mugger.

ExtremeBDS [4]
If the insurer takes the policy as applied for the coverage will take effect when the conditions of the receipt are met and from the date of the application or medical exam. The two types of conditional receipts are insurability and approval. The insurability receipt provides interim coverage as the applicant is insurable while the approval receipt will not begin until the insurer will approve the claim. However, conditional receipts will provide the coverage if the applicant is insurable as applied for and coverage will not be delivered until the applicant accepts the coverage if the insurer concerns a counter-offer because the applicant is substandard risk.

Describe at least two advantages a large company has over a smaller company. (1-4 sentences.
STatiana [176]

A larger company can benefit from <em>economies of scale</em>, meaning they can get discounts by purchasing and producing in bulk which a smaller company wouldn't have the ability to do. A larger store also has the potential for higher revenue because they have more goods and services to sell.

a. <u>user</u>; <u>original equipment manufacturer(OEM)</u>

A business would be termed as a user when it purchases goods from another business, wherein such goods are not directly used in the manufacturing or creation of it's products.
