Answer:

B. total revenue will decrease.

Explanation:

The initial revenue for breakfast cereal is given by the product between the price of cereal (P) and the demanded quantity (D):

R_1 = P*D

After a 25% decrease in price and a 20% increase in demand, the new revenue will be:

R_2 =(1-0.25) P*(1+0.20)D\\R_2 = 0.9P*D\\R_2=0.9R_1

The new revenue is 90% of the original revenue; therefore, total revenue will decrease.

A set of speakers may be purchased now for $1000 or by making a down payment of $150 and additional payments of $100 at the end
victus00 [196]

Answer:

the nominal annual interest rate on the payment plan is 15%

Explanation:

According to the question, a one-time payment for the speakers will cost $1,000

An installmental payment will have a $150 down payment and then another $100 fro ten subsequent months.

Calculating the total payment at tthe end of the payment plan will give

$150 + ($100 x 10months)

we have, $150 + $1,000 = $1,150.

This shows that at the end of the payment plan, the set of speakers would have cost $1,150 instead of $1,00 one-time payment.

Step 2:

To calculate the interest rate, we subtract the one-time price from the payment plan price and express it as a percentage of the one time price to get tthe interest rate.

$1,150-$1,000 = $150

then we have,

($150 ÷ $1,000) × 100%

= 0.15 × 100%

- 15%

The nominal annual interest rate is 15%.

Cheers.

Over [174]

Answer: 20,000 lawn mowers

Explanation:

The formula for calculating the number of lawn mowers needed to reached the budgeted profit levels is:

= (Fixed costs + Budgeted profit) / Contribution margin

Contribution margin = Selling price - Variable cost

= 40 - (14 + 8 + 5)

= 40 - 27

= $13

Number of lawn-mowers required:

= (140,000 + 120,000) / 13

= 20,000 lawn mowers
