Answer:

False

Explanation:

Variable costs are part of direct expenses incurred in the production of goods meant for sales. Variable costs have a direct and proportionate relationship with the output level. An increase in output level increases variable costs. Examples of variable costs are packaging and raw materials.

The contribution margin is the dollar amount available from the sale of each unit to cater for fixed costs and profits. It is calculated by subtracting variable costs from the selling price. The contribution margin is used in determining the break-even point and the output level required to achieve desired profits.

What is the name of the food production strategy, which is characterized by "slash and burn, swidden agricultural techniques use

tigry1 [53]

This food production strategy is what is commonly referred to as unsustainable agriculture. The agriculture process removes the delicate balance of flora and fauna in jungle or forested areas and quickly depletes the land of any remaining nutrients and is therefore unsustainable. The lack of concern or care for the natural environment can lead to larger catastrophes like the creation of scorched earth or desert-like environments where plant and animal life cannot return for decades, if ever.

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

option (c) $875 per year

Explanation:

Given;

Average cost of collision claims for careful drivers = $500 per year

Average cost of collision claims for for poor drivers = $3000 per year

Poor drivers known by the company = 15%

thus,

Careful drivers = (100% - 15%) = 85%

Therefore,

Insurance company's breakeven price for the collision insurance

= (Poor drivers known × Average cost of collision for poor drivers ) +( Careful drivers × Average cost of collision claims for careful drivers)

= 0.15 × $3000 + 0.85 × $500

= $450 + $425

= $875 per year

Hence, the correct answer is option (c) $875 per year
