Answer:

110,257 units.

Explanation:

Fixed operating costs (FC) = $430,000

Variable costs (VC) = $2.10 per unit,

Sales price (P) = $6.00 per unit.

The revenue, as a function of 'n' units produced, for this company is given by:

R(n)= (P-VC)n -FC\\R(n)= (6.00-2.10)n -430,000

The break-even point occurs when revenue is zero. The break-even point is:

0= (6.00-2.10)n -430,000\\n=\frac{430,000}{3.90} \\n=110,256.41

Rounding it up to the next whole unit, the sales volume needed to reach the break-even point is 110,257 units.

Your Competitive Intelligence team is predicting that the Chester Company will invest in adding capacity to their Cell product t
creativ13 [48]

Question Completion:

Figures in thousands (000):

Product Segment    Capacity Next Round

Dug             Core                1200

Dune     Core                1450

Beetle     Core                1040

Bat             Core                1050

New     Core                100

Adam     Core               1200

Answer:

Chester Company

Competitive Intelligence Report:

Based on the increased 10% capacity, the industry can produce 6,644 units.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Product Segment    Capacity Next Round    Increased Capacity (1.1)

Dug             Core                1,200                    1,320

Dune     Core                1,450                    1,595

Beetle     Core                1,040                     1,144

Bat             Core                1,050                    1,155

New     Core                   100                        110

Adam     Core               1,200                    1,320

Total                                     6,040                   6,644

b) Each of the core segment products can be increased by the increased capacity factor of 1.10 (1 + i), where "i" is the rate of capacity increase.  Alternatively, the total capacity in the current period can be increased by the increased capacity factor.  Either way, produces the same result of an increased capacity of 6,644 units that the industry can produce.  The result also shows that the options provided in the question are not correct.  They must have been based on other assumptions.

Caitlin, Chris, and Molly are partners and share income and losses in a 3:4:3 ratio. The partnership’s capital balances are Cait
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

$94,080

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

The partnership’s capital balances

Caitlin=  $128,000

Chris = $88,000

Molly = $108,000

Paul's equity = 20%

Amount invested by the Paul = $68,000

Now,

The total value of the capital = ∑ ( capital balances of each partner )

= $128,000 + $88,000 + $108,000 + $68,000

= $392,000

Therefore,

The balance in Paul's capital account immediately after Paul’s admission

= 20% of $392,000

= $78,400

Thus,

Balance in capital account for Caitlin, Chris, and Molly

= total value of the capital  - Balance in Paul's capital

= $392,000 - $78,400

= $313,600

also,

Share of Caitlin = \frac{3}{3+4+3} = 0.3

hence,

balance in Caitlin’s capital account immediately after Paul’s admission

= 0.3 × $313,600

= $94,080
