Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": The individual is able to get to a lower level of utility.

Explanation:

An Indifference Curve determines the combination of two goods that will provide equal satisfaction. If you want more of one good and less of another, you will be willing to trade some of one for more of the other. But the amount of the first good you are willing to give up will decrease once you obtain more of the second.

In front of the raise of the price of the goods, plotted in a graph, the indifference curves move inwards implying the consumer satisfaction reduces.

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the break-even point in units with the desired profit:

Desired profit= $109,000

Break-even point (units)= (Total fixed costs + desired profit) / Weighted average contribution margin

Weighted average contribution margin= (weighted average selling price - weighted average unitary variable cost)

Weighted average contribution margin= (145*0.8 + 197*0.2) - (75*0.8 + 87*0.2)

Weighted average contribution margin= $78

Break-even point (units)= (827,000 + 109,000) / 78

Break-even point (units)= 12,000

For each product:

Nylon= 12,000*0.8= 9,600

Wool= 12,000*0.2= 2,400

Finally, the contribution margin income statement:

Sales= (9,600*145 + 2,400*197)= 1,864,800

Total variable cost= (9,600*75 + 2,400*87)= (928,800)

Contribution margin= 936,000

Fixed costs= (827,000)

Net operating income= 109,000

You have $14,000 to invest in a stock portfolio. Your choices are Stock X with an expected return of 14 percent and Stock Y with

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

Investment in stock x = $7816.67

Investment in stock y = $6183.33

Explanation:

The computation of invest in Stock X and Stock Y is shown below:-

Let the weight be x

x × 14% + (1 - x) ×8%

= 11.35%

0.14x + 0.08 - 0.08x

= 0.1135

0.14x - 0.08x

= 0.1135 - 0.08

0.06x = 0.335

x = 0.335 ÷ 0.06

x = 55.83%

Investment in stock x = x × Stock portfolio

= 55.83% × $14,000

= $7816.67

Investment in stock y = 1 - 0.5583 × $14,000

= $6183.33
