Answer:

The company should provide, in average, 90 jobs per month in order to break even.

Explanation:

We will assume that the variable costs are proportional to the quantity and thus VC=a*Q

the profit obtained is

profit = P*Q  , (Price [$/job] * Jobs sold [jobs])

and the total costs are

total costs= FC+VC = FC + a*Q , FC=fixed costs

in order to break even the quantity sold should be enough to cover all costs, therefore

profit = total costs

P*Q = FC + a*Q → Q= FC/(P-a)

thus

Q= FC/(P-a) = $3240 / ($60/job - $24/job) = 90 jobs

What is the MOST important item to disclose to a customer who invests in a fund of hedge funds?
sergejj [24]

Answer:

<u>A. The illiquidity of the investment</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

This rightly could be considered as the MOST important item to disclose to a customer who invests in a fund of hedge funds. Let's imagine a customer who invests in a hedge fund and a few days later feels he could take back out from his investment, only to learn about the illiquid nature of hedge fund investment.

For clarity, to say that<em> hedge funds are illiquid means that they require all investors to keep their money in the fund for at least one year, </em>often called the lock-up period. With certain limitations on withdrawals.
