The following monthly data are available for Coronado Industries. which produces only one product: Selling price per unit, $38;

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

The correct answer is C.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Selling price per unit= $38

Unit variable expenses= $14

Total fixed expenses= $42,000

Actual sales for June= 3000 units.

First, we need to calculate the break-even point in dollar using the following formula:

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

Break-even point (dollars)= 42,000/ [(38 - 14)/38]

Break-even point (dollars)= $66,500

Now, we can calculate the margin of safety in dollars:

Margin of safety= (current sales level - break-even point)

Margin of safety= (3,000*38 - 66,500)

Margin of safety= (114,000 - 66,500)

Margin of safety= $47,500

drek231 [11]

True.The financial crisis hastened the ongoing process in which the financial services industry was transforming from having a few large firms to many small firms.

Explanation:

The financial crisis broke the back of many big firms especially working the stock market and exchange. Financing services were being handled by big behemoths during the time that harbored a lot of space in the industry and did not allow smaller firms to take over the tasks and succeed in their stead.

The crisis made it impossible for their business models to sustain and no one could afford a hefty sum for financial services so smaller companies with less operational costs took their place.
