Answer:
<em>The company needs to sell 40 desks to break even</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Application of Equations</u>
There is virtually no limit to the possible situations where equations can help to find the solution of specific problems related to areas like economy, where one could need to establish some important indicators about the business.
B. The fixed cost for Abstract Office Supplies to sell a new computer desk is $14,000. Each desk will cost $150 to produce. The cost function to produce X desks is
C(x)=150x+14,000
A. The revenue for each desk is estimated at $500, for X desks will be
R(x)=500x
C. The company will break even when the cost and the revenue are the same. We'll find how many desks need to be sold for that to happen. We equate
C(x)=R(x)
Or equivalently
150x+14,000=500x
Rearranging
500x-150x=14,000
350x=14,000
Solving for x
x=14,000/350= 40
The company needs to sell 40 desks to break even
For this case we must find the unit cost (dollars per pound) of each site and then compare.
We take into account that:
1kg equals 2.205 pounds
So, we have:
Site 1:
Site 2:
So, the unit cost is:
Thus, the best deal is on site 2.
ANswer:
The best deal is on site 2.
All we really need to do here is to convert 2 cm to meters. There are 100 cm in 1 meter, so the appropriate cm to meters conversion factor is
1 meter
-----------
100 cm
Thus,
2 cm 1 m
-------- * ----------- = (1/50) m = 0.02 m or 2.0*10^(-2) m (answer)
1 100 cm
