Answer:

The chosen option (considering enrollment costs and opportunity cost) is:

b) College course.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Costs/Benefits

                           College Course          Community Course

Cost                              $2,600                         $1,390

Opportunity costs         -2,080                          2,080

Net costs                         $520                        $3,470

Distance to course      0.40 miles                    16 miles

                                  (walking distance)      (driving distance)

Timing of course          Weekday                     Weekend

Number of meetings    16                                 8

b) With the College course option, you will earn $2,080 ($260 * 8) weekdays to offset part of the enrollment cost.  With the Community course option, $2,080 will be lost in opportunity cost, thereby increasing the total costs incurred.  These costs are apart from the driving costs associated with traveling 16 miles to the Community Course at the local library.

Olden Company has provided the following information for this month: Sales Price $50 per unit Variable COGS $13 per unit Fixed C
Pie

Answer:

700 units

Explanation:

The breakeven point is also known as the BEP. The BEP  is the number of units a company must sell for sales or revenue generated is equal to the cost incurred. As such, the BEP is the number of units that must be sold for the company to make neither a profit nor a loss.

Both sales and variable cost are dependent on the number of units sold.

The sales less the variable cost gives the contribution margin. The contribution margin less the fixed cost gives the net operating income.

Let the BEP units be T

35T = 11,000 + 3000 + T(13 + 2)

35T - 15T = 14,0000

20T = 14,000

T = 700

The company's new breakeven in units is 700 units

Which of the following policies is most likely to encourage innovation, higher quality goods, and lower prices?
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

The correct answer is c. Reducing barriers that limit entry of firms into new and existing markets.

Explanation:

An entry barrier is a high cost or other type of barrier that prevents a business from entering the market and competing with other businesses. Barriers to entry may include government regulations, the need for a license, or having to compete with a large corporation being a small business.

As an example, the large company is able to produce a larger quantity of products more efficiently than a company with fewer resources. They have lower costs because they are able to buy bulk materials, and they have less overhead because they produce more under one roof. It would be difficult for the small company to keep up with that, resulting in the avoidance of market entry.

Barriers to entry can have a negative effect on prices because the playing field is not level and competition is restricted. It is not an ideal situation for anyone except for the large company that has a monopoly. However, entry barriers are not always prohibitive. In fact, many new businesses find some type of entry barrier that they must overcome, be it the initial investment, the acquisition of licenses or obtaining a patent - it is only part of the business.

amm1812

Answer: Bar codes

Explanation:

A barcode is a way of representing data in a machine-readable and visual form. In the past, barcodes illustrated data by placing the parallel lines at intervals and altering the widths. Nowadays, barcodes known as one-dimensional (1D) or linear are scanned by optical scanners. Also, the two-dimensional (2D) barcodes were manufactured using dots, rectangles, hexagons and some geometric patterns, known as matrix barcodes. Barcodes are used for the tracking of products.
