Answer:

1. 250 wood tables

2. 250 wood tables

3. $37,500

4. 130 wood tables

Explanation:

Sales (units) required to earn a target profit = (Fixed Costs + Target Profit) ÷ Contribution per unit

Where,

Contribution per unit = Selling Price per unit - Variable Costs per unit

                                   = $150 - $60

                                   = $90

Therefore,

Sales (units) required to earn a target profit = ($11, 700 +  $10, 800) ÷ $90

                                                                        =  250 wood tables

Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution / Sales × 100

                                           = $90 / $150 × 100

                                           = 60 %

Sales (dollars) required to earn a target profit = (Fixed Costs + Target Profit) ÷ Contribution Margin Ratio

                                            = ($11, 700 +  $10, 800) ÷ 60%

                                           = $37,500

Sales in Units to Break Even = Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution per unit

                                               = $11, 700 ÷ $90

                                               = 130 wood tables

Harrizon [31]
<span>The supply curve represents the lowest price at which a firm is willing to accept. The supply curve shows the lowest price the producer is willing to accept for a unit of their product. Producers need to make sure they aren't losing money but selling their products to wholesalers to then sell to the consumer. The producer needs to make a profit off of their product as well. This is where the supply curve comes in, it allows the firm to set the lowest price they can accept when they sell their units off. </span>

Which of the following materials could be potentially infected with bloodborne pathogens, assuming they are not mixed with human
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

Semen or vaginal secretions

Explanation:

"Bloodborne pathogens" refer to microorganisms that can be found in the blood or body fluids of humans. There are many kinds of bloodborne diseases such as <em>Hepatitis B</em> and<em> Hepatitis C</em> as well as <em>Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV).</em> They can be transmitted to another person through <em>having contact with the infected human blood or body fluids.</em>

Assuming that the materials above are not mixed with human blood (meaning, they are not contaminated with blood), then the semen or vaginal secretions are the only materials where the bloodborne pathogens can be transmitted. Thus, it is important <u>not to have sexual contact with the contaminated person such as people with HIV.</u>

So, this explains the answer.
