Answer:

C. 40 customers at $25.00 each

Explanation:

<em>To avoid losing money on the Trip the total contribution from the trip should be equal to the fixed cost of $400 for car rent</em>

<em>contribution/person = price per trip - admission and lunch cost</em>

<em>Break even number of person = Fixed cost/cont per person</em>

     contribution/person           minimum no of person to cover Fixed cost

A         15                                           400/15=  26.7          

B         12.5                                       400/12.5  =32

C           10                                       400/ 10    =40

D           7.5                                    400/ 7.5   = 53.

E           5                                            400/ 5  = 80

<em>From the table above it is obvious that at a price of $25 and having  40 persons the fixed cost would be covered and no loss would be made.</em>

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

$28,600

Explanation:

Both sales and variable cost are dependent on the number of units sold.

The sales less the variable cost gives the contribution margin. The contribution margin less the fixed cost gives the net operating income.

As such, the net operating income/loss is the difference between the sales and the total costs.

The company's net operating income (loss)

= $42,300 + $94,700 -  $108,400

= $28,600

Gennadij [26K]

It is a risk management strategy that mixes a wide variety of investments within a portfolio by allocating capital in a way that reduces the exposure to any one particular asset or risk.

During a pandemic, goods and services may become scarce as a result of: A. Unwillingness to purchase goods and services due to f
lions [1.4K]

Answer: D. Restrictions on travel into and out of affected areas.

Explanation:

Restrictions on travel in and out of affected areas can lead to Scarcity in a Pandemic because there is no free movement of labour and capital.

With borders shut down, goods that were normally imported will suddenly become very hard to acquire because getting them through travel bans is very hard and in most cases, impossible.

Also affected are services as, for instance, the people who provided such services might live in or come from the place they provide said service to. Getting into those areas might prove too cumbersome a task thereby limiting Service provision.

Looking at the current Corona Virus Pandemic that has seen the most extensive Travel Restrictions by Countries in recent times and looking at the Scarcity being suffered by those same countries, drawing the conclusion that the Scarcity is as a result of an impediment to free movement of Goods and Services is most logical.
