Answer:

Variable cost = $6,550

Explanation:

Variable cost is the cost incurred during the production process that changes with quantity of goods produced. For example labor, machine operating cost, and raw materials.

The other type of cost is variable cost that does not change with volume of production, but rather remains constant. For example rent, tax, and so on.

In the given instance the costs that are variable are cost of labor, cost of electricity to run printing presses, and cost of ink for paper.

Monthly mortgage and property tax are fixed cost that must be paid regardless of production volume.

variable cost = $5,500 + $800 + $250

Variable cost = $6,550

stepan [7]

Answer:

Forecasted sales: 25% maximum reduction.

Recommendations: try new ways to increase sales during the months left, or reduce its own cost.

Explanation:

  • If sales usually increase between March 1 and June 30, and this period accounts for 50% of annual revenue, if revenue is proportional to sales, a reduction in sales will reduce revenues.
  • Between March 1 and June 30 there are 4 months.
  • If sales usually pick up in March and this year they were low until the beggining of May, it means that  only 2 of the 4 most productive months were higly productive.
  • If 50% of sales are concentrated in this 4 months, and this year 2 of the 4 months were not really productive, a maximum 25% of sales (and hence of revenues) may have lost.
  • Therefore, revenues may lower by 25% this year.
  • To avoid losses, it is advisable to try new ways to increase sales during the months left, that can consist on doing some advertisement and promotions (related to health care linked to exersice for example), that helps increasing sales in the months left, to compensate the looses of the 2 months. If sales cannot be increased, it is advisable to reduce cost to avoid further looses.

You were able to purchase two tickets to an upcoming concert for $100 apiece when the concert was first announced three months a
dusya [7]

Answer: $450

Explanation:

Total tickets purchased = 2

The cost of one ticket three months ago = $100

Current price of one ticket = $225

Total cost of two tickets = $225 × 2

                                        = $450

The opportunity cost is the benefit that is foregone by selecting some other alternative. So, here two options are available that either attend the concert or resell the ticket at $450. Therefore, the opportunity cost of attending the concert is $450.

If someone produced too little of a good, this would suggest that rational choice cannot be applied to many economic decisions.
juin [17]
If someone produced too little of a good, this would suggest that the good was produced to the point where its marginal benefit exceeded its marginal cost.
Both are metrics used in economics for measurement of costs and benefits.
Marginal benefit is the gain the business receives for doing anything "one more time.", while marginal cost is the additional cost the business incurs to produce one more unit.
This means that if someone produced too little of a good, the business gained more than it lost.
