Answer:

The company degree of operating leverage is 4

Explanation:

The computation of the degree of operating leverage is shown below:

= (Sales - Variable expense) ÷ (Sales - Variable expense - Fixed expense)

= ($660,000 - $360,000) ÷ ($660,000 - $360,000 - $225,000)

= $300,000 ÷ 75,000

= 4

where,

The (Sales - Variable costs) = Contribution margin

The  (Sales - Variable costs - Fixed costs) = EBIT

How did economists Currie and Walker conduct research to decide whether pollution or poverty was responsible for worse outcomes
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Currie and Walker used behavioral responses to pollution such as maternal mobility to conduct research to decide whether pollution or poverty was responsible for worse outcomes among babies born in high-pollution areas.  

<h3>What is Pollution?</h3>

Pollution is a contamination of a healthy environment that can cause damage to the health of individuals and the environment. When a foreign substance is introduced to the environment, either by air or land or whatever means, we say the environment has been polluted.

When Currie and Walker did research on the effect of pollution among babies born in the high-pollution area, they used behavioral responses to pollution to conduct it. They considered maternal mobility and the effects it would have on the baby.

The classical dichotomy is the separation of real and nominal variables. The following questions test your understanding of this
Katen [24]

Answer:

Maria spends all of her money on paperback novels and beignets In 2011 she Earned $27 per hour, the price of a paperback novel was $9, and the price of a beignet was $3.

Following give the nominal value of a variable: -

  • The price of a beignet is $3 in 2011
  • Maria's wage is $27 per hour in 2011

Following give the real value of a variable:

  • The price of a paperback novel is 3 beignets in 2011
  • Maria's wage is 9 beignets per hour in 2011.

Suppose that the Fed sharply macaws the money supply between 2011 and 2016 In 2016, Maria's wage has risen to $54 per hour. The price of a paperback novel is $18 and the price of a beignet is $6

In 2016, the relative price of a paperback novel is  3 beignet

Between 2011 and 2016, the nominal value of Maria's wage increases and the real value of her wage remains the same.

Monetary neutrality is the proposition that a change in the money supply affecis nominal variables and does not affecis real variables

A company has fixed costs of $270,000, a unit contribution margin of $14, and a contribution margin ratio of 55%. If the firm wa
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

Company must make sales of $600,000.

Explanation:

Compute the contribution margin of the company:

Contribution margin=Pre−Tax Income+Fixed Cost

=$60,000+$270,000

=$330,000

Thus, the contribution margin is $330,000. It is computed by summing up the fixed cost and the pre-tax income of the company.

Compute the total sales of the company:

Contribution margin ratio=  Contribution margin  / Sales  

55%=  $330,000/ Sales

Sales=  $55%  / $330,000 ​  

=$600,000    

The sales of the company are $600,000.

The Kitchen Company makes toaster ovens and bread machines. Toaster ovens Sales price per unit: $60 Variable costs per unit: $38
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

The company should produce 7,500 bread machines to maximize profit

Explanation:

Given:

                                                                      Toaster Ovens Bread Machines

         Sales Price per unit                                     60                           135

Less: variable cost per unit                                   38                           75

Contribution Margin per unit                                22                           60

Machine hours per unit                                            1                           2

Now,

Contribution Margin per Machine Hour = \frac{\textup{Contribution Margin per unit}}{\textup{Machine hours per unit}}

thus,

Contribution Margin per Machine Hour        22                           30

Since,

The Contribution Margin per Machine Hour for the bread is more, therefore to maximize profits the kitchen company should produce Breads machines.

also,

Number of units to be produced = \frac{\textup{Machine hours}}{\textup{Machine hours required}}

= \frac{\textup{15,000}}{\textup{2}}

= 7,500 units
