Answer:

Break-even point (dollars)= $234,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Sales (4,000 units) $ 240,000

Variable expenses 156,000

Fixed expenses 81,900

First, we need to calculate the selling price and unitary variable cost:

Selling price= 240,000/4,000= $60 per unit

Unitary variable cost= 156,000/4,000= $39 per unit

Now, we can calculate the break-even point in dollars, using the following formula:

Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio

Break-even point (dollars)= 81,900/ [(60 - 39)/60]

Break-even point (dollars)= $234,000

adell [148]

Answer:

The correct answer would be C, Balance Sheet.

Explanation:

A balance sheet is a document, which contains information about the Assets, Liabilities and owner's Equity of a firm, company or an organization. There is a predetermined format to write a Balance Sheet. There are two sides in this statement. One side contains Assets and Liabilities of the Company, whereas the other side contains the Owner's Equity in a particular point of time. This statement summarizes the financial balances of an individual organization. There are other financial statements of the company as well like Income Statement, cash flow statement, etc, but Balance Sheet is considered most appropriate to have a look at the assets, liabilities and equity of the company at a specific point of time.

Fixed costs= $821,000

Variable costs rate= 63%

<u>If the variable cost rate is 63%, then the contribution margin rate is:</u>

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

The answer is $190,000.

Explanation:

We are given the information about the total price of the home and other payments made by Sandra towards the purchase of the home.

An earnest money check can be counted towards the down payment. She also pays an amount of $7,000 for the down payment which the total of the two adds up to $10,000.

Subtracting that from the price of the home, she should bring $190,000 to the closing.

I hope this answer helps.
