Answer:

Sparrow Co's automobiles are premium brands that command premium prices

Explanation:

The fact that both automobile makers incurs the same cost of $9,000 is just one of many factors to consider because the processes involved in manufacturing are not necessarily the same.

Besides,the level of workforce efficiency and the state of technology deployed are not necessarily the same.

It could also be that Sparrow Co. was able to achieve same level of cost with Bison Autos because it adopted modern cost reductions techniques such as Just-In Time which eliminates the need to keep inventory, thereby  eliminating excessive costs of holding inventory.

All in all,Sparrow Co,could project itself as a maker of high-end brands and increase prices as appropriate.

For the coming year, Belton Company estimates fixed costs of $60,000, the unit variable cost of $25, and the unit selling price
NeTakaya

Answer:

1. Break even point in units = 2,400 units

2. Sales required = 6,400 units

3. Operating income = $140,000

Explanation:

Given:

Fixed costs = $60,000

Variable cost =$25 per unit

Selling price = $50 per unit

Computation:

1. Break-even point in units of sales.

Contribution per unit = sales - VC

Contribution per unit = $50 - $25

Contribution per unit = $25

Break even point in units = Fixed costs / Contribution per unit

Break even point in units = $60,000 / $25

Break even point in units = 2400 units

2. Unit sales required to realize operating income = $100,000

Sales required = (Fixed costs + Operating income) / Contribution per unit

Sales required = ($60,000 + $100,000) / $25

Sales required = 6400 units

3. Operating income if sales total = $400,000

Contribution margin = [$25/ $50]100 = 50%

Operating income = Contribution margin - Fixed costs

Operating income = ($400,000 × 50%) - $60,000

Operating income = $140,000

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer: b. many economic activities expand and contract together in a recurring—but not periodic—fashion

Explanation:

The Business Cycle refers indeed to fluctuations in the business cycle related closely with the rise and fall in production output of goods and services in an economy.

It come with stages being Expansion, Peak, Recession, Depression, Trough, and Recovery. What is most interesting is that the movers behind the business cycle are not a singular entity but rather a series of Economic activities that are interconnected and move together. This is why some activities herald stages in the Business Cycle while some follow it. But they all have a role to play.

It is also very important to note that this is NOT a periodic occurence because it doesn't happen per period and neither can it be predicted but it happens. It is Recurrent but not periodic in other words.
