RSB [31]

Answer:

Current ratio = 0.33 times

Acid test ratio = 0.29 times

Explanation:

• Current ratio

Current ratio = Total current assets ÷ Total current liabilities

= $875 ÷ $2,638

= 0.33 times

• Acid test ratio

Acid test ratio = Quick assets ÷ total current liabilities

Where,

Quick assets = Total current assets - Inventory

= $875 - $116

= $759

Recall total current liabilities = $2,638

Therefore,

Acid test ratio = $759 ÷ $2,638

Acid test ratio = 0.29 times

zmey [24]

Answer:

Answer 1.

DVD Equipment Set Yoga Mat

Sale in Units 13500 4500 9000

Sale Mix 3 1 2

Sales Mix Ratio = 3:1:2

Answer 2.

Let the Break Even Sales = X Units

Therefore, Linear equation of BEP:

3/6 X (8-4) + 1/6 X (25-15) + 2/6 X (16-9) = 119520 (Fixed Costs)

X = 19920 Units

BEP of

DVD = 19,920 Units X 3/6 = 9960 Units

Equipment Set = 19,920 Units X 1/6 = 3320 Units

Yoga Mat = 19920 Units X 2/6 = 6640 Units

Answer 3.

DVD Equipment Set Yoga Mat Total

Sale in Units 13,500 4,500 9,000 27,000

SP 8 25 16

Sales in $ 108,000 112,500 144,000 364,500

Less: Variable Costs 54,000 67,500 81,000 202,500

Contribution 54,000 45,000 63,000 162,000

Contribution Margin Ratio 50.00% 40.00% 43.75% 44.44%

Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution / Sales

Overall Break Even Sales Revenue = $119520 (Fixed Costs) / 44.44% (Contribution Margin Ratio)

Overall Break Even Sales Revenue = $268,920

Answer 4.

Margin of Safety = Sales - BES

Margin of Safety = $364,500 - 268920 = $95,580

Three individuals, Mary, Jack and Helen, make up the total demand for donuts per month in a particular market.
Paraphin [41]

The market demand curve would be 1000 - 0.125Q.

<h3>How to calculate the demand curve?</h3>

It should be noted that the market demand curve will be the sum of the individual demand curve.

The market demand curve will be calculated thus. Mary’s demand curve is 5P = 5000 – 1.25QM. Here, p = 1000 - 0.25QM

Jack’s demand curve for donuts is given by P = 1000 – 0.5QJ. Helen’s demand curve is given by QH = 2000 – 2P. This will be P = 1000 - 0.5QH.

The slope will be:

= 0.5 × 0.25

= 0.15

The demand function of Jack and Helen are the same. The demand curve will be 1000 - 0.125Q.

Determine the market potential for a backpack that has 200,000 prospective buyers who purchase an average of 2 backpack per year
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

i.The total number of a company sell if it desires a 10% share of this market? is 40,000 units

ii. The % of the market supplies that should capture to break even is 5%

Explanation:

To calculate break even point in unit, use the formula;

Fixed Cost / Contribution Margin.

In this question, Fixed cost is the factory lease cost of one year for $400,000

Contribution margin is the difference betwen Selling Price and Variable Cost.

This will be $50-$30=$20

Therefore, Break even point in unit = $400,000 divided by $20

this will give 20,000 units.

20,000 units is 5% of the market size of (200,000X2) 400,000 units.

I.e. (20,000/400,000)X100=5%
