To answer this item, we let x be the current number of chairs. After adding 50 chairs to the current inventory, the total number of chairs would then be equal to x + 50. The equation that would allow us to determine the value of x is written below.
x + 50 = (3/2)(x)
Simplifying the equation,
x + 50 = 3x/2
x - 3x/2 = -50
-x/2 = -50
Dividing both sides of the equation by -1/2, the value of x is equal to 100.
To increase the inventory by 40%, the equation would be,
y = x(1.4) = 1.4(100) = 140
<em>ANSWER: 140 chairs</em>
Answer:
$10,000
Explanation:
Based on the information given we were told that the government contribution to the pension plan was the amount of $10,000 for year 1 which simply means the amount of $10,000 will be the pension expenditure for the general fund for year 1.
Therefore the pension expenditure for the general fund for year 1 will be $10,000.

Explanation:
A defined benefit pension plan is a type of pension plan where the employer gives a promise with respect to the particular pension payment that could be lumpsum for the retirement basis
Since in the question it is mentioned that the companies would not continue with the defined benefit plan and they move to the defined-contribution plans that save for the retirement so that it would create the more responsibility over the company due to this they would provide the retirement benefit but this statement is false as it is better to received the lumpsum amount
Answer:
$277,000
Explanation:
Break even is the point where neither profit nor a loss is made by the company.
<u>Determination of Break-even Sales</u>
Sales - Variable Expenses - Fixed Expenses = 0
Therefore, Solving Algebraically
Sales = Variable Expenses + Fixed Expenses
= 222,000 + 55,000
= 277,000
Therefore Break-even sales for the month for the company is closest to $277,000
The similarity of negative growth rate and zero growth rate is that there is no growth towards a positive output. For example, if the business is currently in either state, it is not earning. It may be very stagnant (for zero growth rate) or losing (for negative growth rate). Which either the case may be, it is not beneficial to the business owner.
