Cindyliz is wrong in this situation

Both Cindyliz and The Hutch Fashions did not signed any contract that specify the obligation that The Hutch Fashions need to sell  a certain type of product to Cindyliz. She just obtained a summer catalogue, not a purchase order.  A catalogue only filled with list of product information that company sold.

Answer: NO. a Contract of sale is valid when two parties reach an agreement and all essentials of a valid contract have been met, CIndyLiz calling the store that is when she and the store were trying to reach an agreement, which didnot happen

Explanation:

a contract of sale is valid when two parties enter into an agreement and all essentials of a valid contract have been met, CIndyLiz calling the store that is when she and the store were trying to enter into an agreement, which did not happen because the dress is out of stock. A catalog does not amount to an agreement with Cindyliz or anyone.

Lusk Corporation produces and sells 10,000 units of Product X each month. The selling price of Product X is $40 per unit, and va
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

There is a financial disadvantage of ($30,000).

Explanation:

The discontinuity of product X would result in the contribution lost.

Sales that would be lost = $40 × 10,000 units = $400,000

Relevant variable cost with the production of product X that would be saved = $32 × 10,000 units = $320,000

Contribution lost = Sales lost - Variable cost saved

Contribution lost = $400,000 - $320,000

Contribution lost = $80,000

Saving in fixed costs = $120,000 - $70,000 (this would not be incurred) = $50,000

However, still contribution lost is more than the saving in fixed costs

Therefore, the financial disadvantage = $80,000 - $50,000 = ($30,000)

Building Restoration, Inc. (BRI), enters into a contract to refurbish an old train depot for CasualDining, Inc., to open as Eat
maksim [4K]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Substancial performance is a terminology used in contract law. It actually means the degree of performance of a contract work which is not completely or fully finished,but is so nearly equivalent that it would be unfair to deny the contractor the payment agreed upon in the contract. The owner has a right to recover whatever damages he has incurred by reason of the contractor's failure to render full and complete performance.

Building Restoration must have at least substantially performed the it's side of a bargain before they can call on the CasualDining,Inc to perform the their side of the bargain e.g. by paying an agreed amount. What actually constitute substantial performance depends on the circumstances.

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

The level of sales in units is 7,400

Explanation:

The computation of the level of sales in units is shown below:

= (Fixed cost + target income) ÷ (Contribution margin per unit)

= ($286,200 + $106,000) ÷ ($163 per unit - $110 per unit)

= $392,200 ÷ $53 per unit

= 7,400 units

The Contribution margin per unit is

= Selling price per unit - variable cost per unit

Deadweight loss is the a. decline in government revenue when taxes are reduced in a market. b. decline in consumer surplus when
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

D, decline in total surplus that results from a tax.

Explanation:

Dead-weight loss is also known as excess burden. It is a situation where in there is a loss of economic sufficiency as a result of tax.

This economic sufficiency is when the supply of goods and services aren't met. That is, there is no market equilibrium between demand and supply. Taxes, subsidies, price rise or fall can be the reason for dead-weight loss as it causes the imbalance of demand and supply of goods or services to the consumers through price manipulations.

To calculate dead-weight loss, change in price as well as change in quantity demanded are important factors to consider.

Cheers.
