Answer:
- a. <em>Break-even quantity:</em> <u>28,000 pens</u>
- b<em>. Price</em>: <u>$1.51 per pen</u>
Explanation:
1. Break-even quantity
<u>a) Revenue, R(x)</u>
The monthly revenue is the product of the price by the number of units sold in the month.
Naming x the number of pens sold in the month:
<u>b) Cost, C(x)</u>
<u />
The monthly cost is the sum of the fixed cost per month plus the variable costs:
- C(x) = $21,000 + 0.25 × x = 21,000 + 0.25x
<u>c) Break-even</u>
Break-even is the point when the revenue and the total costs are equal, this is, when the profit is zero. Write the equation and solve:
Hence, the break-even quantity is 28,000 pens.
2. Price pens must be sold to obtain a monthly profit of $18,000
Profit = Revenue - Total cost
- P(x) = x.p - [ 0.25x + 21,000]
Where p is the price.
- P(x) = x.p - 0.25x - 21,000
Substitute the quantity demanded, x, with 31,000, and the profit, P(x) with 18,000:
- 18,000 = 31,000p - 0.25(31,000) - 21,000
Solve for p and compute:
- 31,000p = 18,000 + 7,750 + 21,000
That is $1.51 per pen.
Answer:
The correct answer would be lost market share and customers.
Explanation:
When companies start their business and their business starts to boom, they usually get busy in making their products better and better and usually forget to keep an active eye on the competition they have in the markets. Almost 80% of the business owners are clueless about the competition. Due to this negligence, companies start to loose their market share as well as the customers, because they don't have idea about what their competitors have introduced in the market and what strategies they have used to compete in the market.

Answer:
The answer is A.
Explanation:
B doesnt make much sense and C is just plain stupid
None of those answers are suitable to me.
Government bonds are generally regarded as low-risk and they typically have modest (low) interest rates for return on investment, and these are advantages really. So we can discount answer A, C, and D.
I guess you could say that bonds can be hard to find (Answer B) but this not really true. There is always a bond market to trade bonds on. It requires setting up a trading account or speaking to a broker so this can be more difficult than putting money in a bank account, but to be honest I don't think any of those answers are appropriate for the question.
