                      person             person              person               person

Average Waiting

Time               10 minutes     6 minutes        3 minutes          2 minutes

Cost                  $720                $432                $216                 $144

                 (72 × $1 × 10)    (72 × $1 × 6)        (72 × $1 × 3)      (72 × $1 × 2)

Cost                   80                    $160                  $240                $320

                      ($80 × 1)            ($80 × 2)            ($80 × 3)         ($80 × 4)

Total cost          $800               $592                  $456                $464

Thus, 3 servers have the lowest cost, so that the overall cost per change with 3 Sales people is chosen.

rodikova [14]

The correct answer is installment credit. The explanation is below.

Installment credit allows you to purchase an item and then pay for it in installments. The reason that this would be the best option for you is that you do not have the money now to make the purchase, but you are able to make smaller monthly payments in order to purchase a computer.

Installment credit is better than revolving credit for new borrowers. Revolving credit would allow you to charge additional purchases on your revolving credit account. The installment plan only finances one item, rather than like a credit card, which is how revolving credit works. You would not choose non-installment credit because this would require you to make this payment all at once in a short period of time. It would not allow you to spread the payments out over time.

inn [45]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Total Per Unit Sales (37,000 units at $6) $ 222,000  

Variable expenses 111,000 ($3.00)

Contribution margin 111,000 ($ 3.00)

Fixed expenses 41,000

Net operating income $ 70,000

1) sales increase by 12%

Income= contribution margin* 1.12 - fixed expenses= 111,000*1.12 - 41,000= 83,320

2) selling price decreases by $1.30 per unit and the number of units sold increased by 19%.

Income= (37000*1.19)*(4.7-3) - 41,000= 33,851

3)  the selling price increases by $1.30 per unit, fixed expenses increase by $6,000, and the number of units sold decreased by 7%

Income= (37000*0.93)*(7.30-3) - 47000= $100,963

4) the selling price per unit increases by 20%, variable expenses increase by 20 cents per unit, and the number of units sold decreased by 13%

Income= (37000*0.87)*(7.2-3.2) - 41000= $87,760
