Answer and Explanation:        

Particulars          Current                    Expected

Sales                $800,000           $837000

                         ($200 × 4,000)             ($200 - $14) × (4,000 + 500)

Less:

Variable expenses  $160,000            $180,000

                          ($40 × 4,000)                  ($40 × 4,500)    

Contribution margin $640,000 $657,000

Less:  

Fixed expenses    $531,000               $566,000

                                                           ($531,000 + $35,000)

Net operating income  $109,000               $91,000

As we can see that the net operating income is declined by $18,000 by taking a difference of current net operating income and expected net operating income

A regional restaurant chain, CoCo's, is considering purchasing a smaller chain, AJ's, which is currently financed using 20% debt
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

13.856%

Explanation:

For computing the discounting rate we have to find out the weightage average cost of capital but before that first we have to determine the cost of equity and the after tax cost of debt which is shown below:

Cost of equity = Risk free rate of return + Beta × market risk premium

= 8% + 2 × 4%

= 16%

And, the after cost of debt is

= Cost of debt × ( 1 - tax rate)

= 8% × (1 - 0.34)

= 5.28%

Now the weighted cost of capital is

= Cost of debt × weighted of debt + cost of equity × weighted of equity

= 5.28% × 20% + 16% × 80%

= 1.056% + 12.8%

= 13.856%

If the sales volumes in the east and west regions had been reversed, what would be the company’s overall break-even point in uni
Illusion [34]

The break-even point is the level of sales at which profits are equal. The company sold 38,000 units in the eastern region and 13,000 units in the western region

Equal gross revenue means no loss or profit for small businesses. This means that we have reached a stage of production where the cost of production equals the revenue of the product.

To calculate the breakeven point in units, use the following formula: Points (Sales) = Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution Margin

The break-even point (BEP) helps the business owner/CFO to realistically check how long it will take to see a return on an investment. For example, calculate or model the minimum turnover required to cover the cost of entering a new location or new market.

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer: the government rarely intervened in the economy to influence inflation or unemployment rates.

Explanation:

Up until the Great Depression of 1929 to 1932, the government followed a laissez-faire policy where they rarely intervened in the market to influence inflation or unemployment rate.

After the Great Depression and then the second world war, this changed and the Federal government became very active in the economy through fiscal policy and massive government spending enabled the U.S. to surge ahead of other nations in terms of development.
