Answer:

Rally must sell 1,080 units of Standard and 720 units of Deluxe

Explanation:

                                                  Standard       Deluxe        Total

Sales price per unit                      $45                $65

Less: Variable cost                      ($35)              ($45)

Contribution Margin per  unit       $10                $20

Sales Mix units  (A)                        $3                  $2                $5

Contribution margin                      $30                $40             $70

Weighted average Contribution                                              $14    

per unit C= B/A

Appointment of fixed cost between standard and deluxe

Total Fixed cost = 14,700

Break even point = Fixed cost / Weighted average Contribution  per unit

= 14,700 / 14

= 1,050

Apportionment of Break even point sales between Standard and deluxe in sales mix ratio (3:2)

Standard = 1,050 * 3/5 = 630

Deluxe = 1,050 * 2/3 = 420

Unit to be sold to get desired profit = Fixed cost + Desired profit / Weighted average Contribution per unit

= (14,700 + 10,500) / 14

= 1,800

Apportionment of Units to be sold to get desired profit between Standard and Deluxe in sales mix ratio (3:2)

Standard = 1,800 * 3/5 = 1,080

Deluxe = 1,800 * 2/5 = 720

To reach target operating income, Rally must sell 1,080 units of Standard and 720 units of Deluxe

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

Airline 2 offers low prices on long-distance flights and has long service times for its planes between flights.

Explanation:

Low Cost providing strategy is the strategy in which the services are provided at a lower cost and but the quality of service is acceptable, and is in fact good.

Where the price along with quality is decreased the low cost strategy is not followed.

As in the case of Airline 2 the cost is decreased for passengers and at the same time the service is also decreased.

As there is a long gap of time in between the flights.
