Answer:

The Draper Corporation would be indifferent between continuing and discontinuing of Doombugs at 20,000 units.

Explanation:

The draper should be indifferent at the level at which they covered all of their Fixed Cost.

The sales price per unit is ⇒ 150,000/15,000 = 10 per unit

The Variable cost per unit is ⇒ 120,000/15,000 = 8 per unit

The Break-even units for Draper should be:

Break-even units = <u>            Fixed Cost              </u>

                                Sale price - Variable Cost

Break-even units = <u>40,000</u>

                                 10-8

Break-even units = <u>40,000</u>

                                    2

Break-even units = 20,000 units

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

Return on investment=12.81%

Explanation:

<em>Return on investment for a stock comprises of the capitals and dividend earned on the stock.</em>

<em>The capital gain is the difference between he cost of the shares when it was bought and the value when it is sold.</em>

Capital gain = (24.50 -22)× 500= 1250

Dividend earned for a year = 0.32× 500 =160

Total return = 1250  + 160 =1,410

Total return = $1,410

Cost of the shares= 11,000

Return on investment = total return/cost of shares× 100

                                     =1,410 /11,000 ×  100= 12.81

Return on investment=12.81%

Which of the following are microeconomic problems? (You may select more than one answer.)(a) Work/leisure choice.(b) Marketing s
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

(a) Work/leisure choice

(b) Marketing strategy

Explanation:

Microeconomic issues relate to those that are within the scope and power of individuals, households and firms which means that problems here will relate to decisions that these participants make in relation to resource allocation.

Choices relating to leisure or work have to do with the individual and the resources they would need or derive from either work or leisure and so are a microeconomic problem.

The marketing strategy that a firm should pursue is related to an individual firm and so is a microeconomic problem as well.

A list of n items is arranged in random order; to find a requested item, they are searched sequentially until the desired item is
kompoz [17]
<span>n/2 = average number of items to search. Or more precisely (n+1)/2 I could just assert that the answer is n/2, but instead I'll prove it. Since each item has the same probability of being searched for, I'll simulate performing n searches on a list of n items and then calculate the average length of the searches. So I'll have 1 search with a length of 1, another search looks at 2, next search is 3, and so forth and so on until I have the nth search looking at n items. The total number of items looked at for those n searches will be: 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + ... + n Now if you want to find the sum of numbers from 1 to n, the formula turns out to be n(n+1)/2 And of course, the average will be that sum divided by n. So we have (n(n+1)/2)/n = (n+1)/2 = n/2 + 1/2 Most people will ignore that constant figure of 1/2 and simply say that if you're doing a linear search of an unsorted list, on average, you'll have to look at half of the list.</span>
