Answer: 33,200 units

Explanation:

Current operating income = Sales - Variable costs - fixed costs

= (29,000 * 3) - (29,000 * 2) - 8,000

= $21,000

An increase of 20% would be:

= 21,000 * 1.20

= $25,200

The number of units that must be sold is:

= (Fixed costs + Required profit) / Contribution margin

Contribution margin = Selling price - Variable cost

= 3 - 2

= $1

Number of units to be sold is:

= (8,000 + 25,200) / 1

= 33,200 units

ankoles [38]

Answer:

The cash conversion cycle for 2014 was 105 days.

Explanation:

To calculate the Cash Conversion Cycle you need first to calculate three indicators that are the components of the Cash Conversion Cycle.

DIO - Days of Inventory Outstanding

DSO - Days Sales Outstanding

DPO - Days Payables Outstanding

The CCC is the sum of DIO + DSO - DPO

Please see details below:

CCC - Cash Conversion Cycle = 105  days

DIO - Days of Inventory Outstanding = 99 days

Average Inventory  $15.750  

Cost Of Goods  $58.000  

DSO - Days Sales Outstanding = 57 days  

Accounts Receivable $18.000  

Sales $116.000  

DPO - Days Payables Outstanding = 50 days  

Accounts Payables  $8.000  

Cost Of Goods  $58.000

Explain the difference between a Trade discount and Cash discount?​
madam [21]
The key difference between trade discount and cash discount is that trade discount refers to the reduction in list price known as discount, allowed by a supplier to the consumer while selling the product generally in bulk quantities to concerned consumer, whereas, cash discount is discount given by the supplier on its cash payments to recover the cash debts on time as it motivates the buyer to pay cash early as they are given discount if they pay within the stipulated time.

The mean cost of a meal for two in a mid-range restaurant in Tokyo is $40 (Numbeo website, December 14, 2014). How do prices for
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

a. 2.13. b. (30.53, 34.79). c. The mean prices for two in mid-range restaurants in Hong Kong are relatively less than those in Tokyo restaurants.

Explanation:

The size of the sample is 42 and the mean of the sample is ∑x_{i}n = 32.66 and the standard deviation of the sample (σ) is √[∑(x_{i}-μ)^2 - 1] = √46.6092 = 6.8271

a. α = 1 - (95/100) = 0.05; α/2 = 0.025; the degree of freedom = n-1 = 42-1 = 41; tα/2 = t0.025 = 2.02. Thus, the error margin = (tα/2)*(σ/√n) = 2.02*(6.83/√42) = 2.1279

b. Lower level limit = 32.66 - 2.1279 = 30.5321; Upper level limit = 32.66+2.1279 = 34.7879. The interval estimate = (mean± margin of error) = (30.53, 34.79).

c. The mean prices for two in mid-range restaurants in Hong Kong are relatively less than those in Tokyo restaurants.
