Answer:

a.

Break even in units of QQ is 7930 units

b.

Break even in units of ZZ is 1400 units

Explanation:

To calculate the break even in units of each product, we first need to find out the overall break even point in units for the company. The over all break even point in units for a two product company is,

Overall Break even in units =  Total Fixed costs / Weighted average contribution margin per unit

Where,

Weighted average contribution margin per unit = Weight of Product A in sales mix * Contribution per unit of Product A + Weight of Product B in sales mix * Contribution per unit of Product B

Weighted average CM per unit = 0.85 * 260 + 0.15 * 180

Weighted average CM per unit = $248 per unit

Over all break even in units = 2313840 / 248     =  9330 units

a.

Break even in units Product QQ = 9330 * 0.85 = 7930.5 rounded off to 7930 units

b.

Break even in units Product ZZ = 9330 * 0.15 = 1399.5 rounded off to 1400 units

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Total amount at the end of 4 years = $135.16

Explanation:

A simple interest account pays interest on only the sum deposited at an annual rate for a specified period of time without compounding or adding the interest earned in a particular period in the calculation of interest earning for the next period. Thus, if 1000 is invested and interest s earned at 10% then the interest earned will remain constant for every period the money is still deposited in the account.

The formula to calculate interest under simple interest method is,

Interest = Principal * Annual Rate * Time in years

Total Interest earned = 109 * 6% * 4

Total interest earned = 26.16

Total amount at the end of 4 years = Principal + Interest

Total amount at the end of 4 years = 109 + 26.16

Total amount at the end of 4 years = $135.16
