Answer:

1. 6,944 units and $833,333.33

2.  $1,080,000 and  22.83%

Explanation:

The computations are shown below:

1. Break-even point in units

= (Fixed expenses ) ÷ (Contribution margin per unit)  

where,  

Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit × contribution margin ratio

= $250,000 ÷ $36

= 6,944 units

Break-even point in sales

= (Fixed expenses ) ÷ (Contribution margin ratio)  

= $250,000 ÷ 30%

= $833,333.33

2. For margin of safety and margin of safety ratio:

Margin of safety = Expected sales - break even sales

where,

Expected sales = (Operating income + fixed expense) ÷ (contribution margin ratio)

= ($74,000 + $250,000)

= ($324,000) ÷ (30%)

= $1,080,000

So, the margin of safety would be

= $1,080,000 - $833,333.33

= $246,667

Margin of safety ratio = Margin of safety ÷ total sales

                                      = $246,667 ÷ $1,080,000

                                      = 22.83%

A stock had returns of 17.88 percent, −5.16 percent, and 20.39 percent for the past three years. What is the variance of the ret
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

Variance of the return = 0.01983

Explanation:

S^{2}= Σ(X-X)^{2}/ N - 1

Mean return = 17.88% + -5.16% + 20.39% = 11.0367%  

Variance = [(17.88% - 11.0367%)2 + (-5.16% - 11.0367%)2 + (20.39% - 11.0367%)2] /(3 - 1)

Variance = [0.004683 + 0.026233 + 0.008748]/2

Variance = 0.01983

Assume a drought in the Great Plains reduces the supply of wheat. Noting that wheat is a basic ingredient in the production of b
tatyana61 [14]

Answer: a. rise, the supply of bread to decrease, and the demand for potatoes to increase.

Explanation:

According to the Economic law of SUPPLY AND DEMAND, less supply means HIGHER prices simply because the good is becoming scarce not unlike fuel during global oil shortages.

Now, we are told that the drought reduced the supply for wheat which means the SUPPLY of wheat has DECREASED and this will translate to the SUPPLY of Bread DECREASING as well. According to the aforementioned law, prices of Bread will therefore RISE.

Since Bread prices have risen, people will seek alternatives to bread as they may not want to pay the high price. This will lead them to choosing the alternative to bread which in this case are Potatoes which would therefore INCREASE the DEMAND for potatoes.

VashaNatasha [74]

I believe the answer is: A. Cars typically lose the most value in the first year after purchase

As the miles usage in cars increase, the quality of the machine tend to deteriorate, which would lead to the decrease in the cars' value. On top of that, the new model that given by car companies tend to possess better technology/design. On average, cars tend to lose 15 - 25 % in value during the first year.
