Answer:

the breakeven quantity at current price is 500 units

Explanation:

The computation of the  breakeven quantity at current price is shown below:

Breakeven point = Fixed cost ÷ (Price per unit - variable cost per unit)

= $100,000 ÷ ($600 - $400)

 = 500 units

Hence, the breakeven quantity at current price is 500 units

We simply used the above formula so that the correct units could arrive

<h3>What is a Perfect Competitive Market?</h3>

Perfect competition is an ideal type of market structure where all producers and consumers have full and symmetric information and no transaction costs. There are a large number of producers and consumers competing with one another in this kind of environment.

Perfect competition is a market structure where many firms offer a homogeneous product. Because there is freedom of entry and exit and perfect information, firms will make normal profits and prices will be kept low by competitive pressures.

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

price earning ratio = 2

Explanation:

given data

Book value = $40 per share

Par value = $12 per share

Dividends =  $5 per share

Dividend payout ratio = 20 %  

Dividend yield ratio =  10 %

solution

first we get here market price per share by dividend yield ratio that is express as

dividend yield ratio = Dividends per share ÷ market price per share    ........................1

put here value we get

market price per share = \frac{5}{0.10}

market price per share = $50

and

now we get earning per share  by dividend payout ratio that is express as

dividend payout ratio  = dividend per share ÷  earning per share    .................................2

put here value we get

earning per share  = \frac{5}{0.20}

earning per share  = $25

so now we get here price earning ratio that is

price earning ratio = market price per share ÷ earning per share ..........................3

put here value we get

price earning ratio = \frac{50}{25}

price earning ratio = 2
