Answer:

A. The crossover point in units is 9000 units

B. Alternate B or Proposal B should be chosen

Explanation:

a.

Let x be the number of units.

The profit equation for option 1 can be written as (20-11)x - 62000

The profit equation for option 2 can be written as (20-14)x - 35000

The crossover point is where both optons yield equal profit thus equation 1 = equation 2.

(20-11)x - 62000 = (20-14)x - 35000

9x - 62000 = 6x - 35000

9x - 6x = 62000 - 35000

3x = 27000

x = 27000 / 3

x = 9000 units

b.

At 8300units,

Profit from proposal A is = 9(8300) - 62000 = 12700

Profit from proposal B is = 6(8300) - 35000 = 14800

Thus option B is more profitable at this unit.

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

The options are not correct:

Dr costs of good sold  $15,800

Cr inventory                                   $15,800

Explanation:

The 4,400 units sold consist of the 2,400 units purchased on 1 January at $4.00 per unit and the balance of 2,000 units from the purchase made on January 12 at $3.10 per unit

cost of goods sold=(2,400*$4)+(2,000*$3.10)=$15,800

The cost of goods sold is $15,800 ,neither is it $11,900 nor $11,800

The appropriate entries is to debit costs of good sold with $15,800 while merchandise inventory is credited with $15,800

irga5000 [103]

Answer: Option (d) is correct.

Explanation:

Correct Option: Marginal revenue equals marginal cost.

Pure monopoly is a market situation in which there is a single firm who are producing the goods and these goods are the close substitute. There is no other firm in the market. So, the monopoly firm is the price setter.

The output level that is produced by the profit maximizing monopoly firm is at a point where marginal revenue is equal to the marginal cost. It is the same profit maximizing condition that a competitive firm also utilize to find their equilibrium level of output.
