Answer: You were charged $15.37 pre tax

Restaurant will pay $1.23 in sales taxes

Explanation:

We are going to have to use our trusted friend Algebra to solve this one.

In calculating the amount paid for the lunch without any taxes we will say that "x" is the amount that you paid without taxes. Putting it in an equation would be,

16.60 = x * 1.08

16.60 = 1.08x

x = 16.60/ 1.08

= 15.37

You were charged $15.37 without taxes.

To calculate how much the restaurant is to pay in taxes you can just subtract the post tax and pre tax figures which would be,

= 16.6 - 15.37

= $1.23

Restaurant will pay $1.23 in taxes.

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Head- First expects to produce total revenue of $570,000

The total variable cost of $388,000.

The total fixed cost is expected to be $58,900.

To calculate the break-even point in dollars, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio

Break-even point (dollars)= 58,900 / [(570,000 - 388,000) / 570,000]

Break-even point (dollars)= 58,900/0.3193

Break-even point (dollars)= $184,466.02

Contribution margin income statement:

Contribution margin= contribution margin ratio*sales

contribution margin= 0.3193*184,466.02= 58,900

Fixed costs= (58,900)

Net operating profit= 0
