Answer: BruceCo would have to sell 220 backpacks

Explanation: The projection of a $10,000 profit can be calculated properly by the equation;

Revenue - Cost = Profit

There is a one-time set up charge of 1000 and this is a fixed cost (as it does not change regardless of how many units they eventually sell). Also they would be spending $30 to buy each unit and still spend $20 to customize each. So each unit would cost $50 to acquire. If they plan on selling each unit at the rate of $100, then the total revenue would be 100 times X (where X is the number of units sold). Therefore the profit can be better projected by the equation;

Revenue - Cost = Profit

100X - (50X + 1000) = 10000

100X -50X - 1000 = 10000

50X = 10000 + 1000

50X = 11000

Divide both sides of the equation by 50

X = 220

Therefore, BruceCo must sell 220 units (at least) in order to meet a $10,000 profit projection

Suppose in the spot market 1 U.S. dollar equals 1.3750 Canadian dollars. 6-month Canadian securities have an annualized return o
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

$1 = 1.372 CD

Explanation:

Spot rate, 1$ = 1.3750  Canadian dollars

Canadian securities annualized return = 6%

U.S. securities annualized return = 6.5%

Term = 6 month ≅(180 days)

Forward exchange rate in 180 days, 1$ = Spot rate * (1+US rate*6/12) / (1+CD rate*6/12)

= 1.3750 CD * (1 + 6%*6/12) / (1 + 6.5%*6/12)

= 1.3750 CD * (1 + 0.03) / (1 + 0.0325)

= 1.3750 CD * 1.03/1.0325

= 1.371670702179177 CD

= 1.372 CD

So, the the U.S. dollar-Canadian dollar exchange rate in the 180-day forward market is $1 = 1.372 CD

A company orders office supplies in June. Those supplies are received and used in July. The supplies are paid for in August. In
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

Expense must be recognized in July

Explanation:

The reason is that the expense must be recognized in the month in which the supplies are used because the accrual concept says that the expenses must be realized when they are incurred. Incurred means that the consideration received has been used. For example if I pay the telecommunication network in June to give 4G internet and the services are delivered in the month July then the expenses will be realized in the month in which the services were used and that is July for internet facilities. So in this case the supplies are used in the month of July which is in-accordance with the accrual concept.
