Answer:
<u>b. exports > imports.</u>
Explanation:
Note that when a country's exports are less than imports of the country that is a case of unfavorable balance of trade.
So Mercantilists often aim to see excess of exports over imports which they believe means added income (exports) and less of expenditure ( imports).
Remember the balance of trade (BOT) looks at foreign exchange between countries.
Answer:
6. a)
total fixed costs = $600,000
product mix:
1 Diablo: 2 Call of Duty: 3 Sekiro: 4 Starcraft II
Contribution margin per unit:
- Diablo = $55 - $22 = $33
- Call of Duty = $48 - 17 = $31
- Sekiro = $33 - $12 = $21
- Starcraft = $22 - $11 = $11
Contribution margin per product mix = $33 + (2 x $31)) + (3 x $21) + (4 x $11) = $172
break even number (in product mix) = $600,000 / $172 = 3,488.37 ≈ 3,489 product mixes
6.b)
- Diablo = 3,489 games
- Call of Duty = 3,489 x 2 = 6,978 games
- Sekiro = 3,489 x 3 = 10,467 games
- Starcraft = 3,489 x 4 = 13,956 games
Answer:
$15 per backpack
Explanation:
The average variable cost per of producing a backpack by using the high low method is shown below:
Variable cost per backpack = (High total cost - low total cost) ÷ (High backpack produced - low backpack produced )
= ($110,000- $87,500) ÷ (4,000 backpack produced - 2,500 backpack produced )
= $22,500 ÷ 1,500 backpack produced
= $15 per backpack
