Maxim manufactures a cat food product called Green Health. Maxim currently has 10,000 bags of Green Health on hand. The variable

production costs per bag are $1.80 and total fixed costs are $10,000. The cat food can be sold as it is for $9.00 per bag or be processed further into Premium Green and Green Deluxe at an additional $2,000 cost. The additional processing will yield 10,000 bags of Premium Green and 3,000 bags of Green Deluxe, which can be sold for $8 and $6 per bag, respectively.

Answer:

$68,000

Explanation:

The formula to compute the gross profit is shown below:

Gross profit = Sales revenue - cost of goods sold

where,

Sales revenue = Number of bags in premium green × selling price per unit + number of bags in green deluxe × selling price per unit

= 10,000 × $8 + 3,000 × $6

= $80,000 + $18,000

= $98,000

And, the cost of goods sold is

= variable cost of green health + total fixed cost + additional processing cost

= 10,000 × $1.8 + $10,000 + $2,000

= $18,000 + $12,000

= $30,000

So, the gross profit is

= $98,000 - $30,000

= $68,000

Red when choosing a form of ownership
siniylev [52]

Answer:

see below

Explanation:

1. Private Limited Company

A private limited company is an acknowledged legal entity whose shares are held privately by the founders. The shareholders are the owners. They are not allowed to trade their shares to the public through the security exchange. SHINING STAR BUS COMPANY (PTY) Ltd is currently a limited private company.  Transfer of shares has to be between the existing shareholders, the bus company, and requires authorization. The shareholders have limited liability to the company's debts and are entitled to a share in the company profits.

2. Public Limited Company

A public limited company is recognized as a legal and separate entity from its owners. Unlike a private limited company, the shares of a public limited company are traded in the security exchange markets. It means ownership of a public company is open to the public. The management of SHINING STAR BUS COMPANY (PTY) Ltd wants to convert it to a public limited company. After the conversion, its shares will be traded at the Johannesburg Security Exchange(JSE).

KIM [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is: Equal to the taxes paid divided by taxable income.

Explanation:

The effective tax rate is the ratio of the total tax burden of an individual and their taxable income. It is considered as a better representative of the tax burden of an individual than the marginal tax rate.  

It shows the average rate at which an individual's income and assets are taxed. The effective tax rate of an individual is lower than the marginal tax rate.  

To calculate the effective tax rate, the individuals can add their total tax burden and divide the sum by their taxable income. It represents the percentage of taxable income that an individual has to pay as taxes.

Compare and contrast the protection to intellectual property provided by trade secrets relative to that provided by patents. Wha
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

1. Protection to trade secrets and patents:

a. Trade secrets are protected indefinitely.  Generally, patents are granted for a maximum of 20 years.

b. The owner of a trade secret does not need to pay annual fee to defend the secret.  A patent holder is required to pay an annual fee, in order to make the patent enforceable.

2. Important defense for defendants in trade secret cases that is not available to patent infringement defendants:

The defendant in a trade secret case will cite that the secret is still commercially valuable.  But a patent holder cannot cite this because the patent is granted for a maximum of 20 years to stop stifling innovation.

Explanation:

Both trade secrets and patents are intellectual property rights which confer on their owners the exclusive use of their intellectual property.  The major differences are in the duration and the defense of the rights.  Patents, unlike trade secrets, do not last forever.  Patents, again unlike trade secrets, must be defended periodically through the payment of fees.
