<h3>Answers:</h3><h3>Invest $1785.71 in stock X</h3><h3>Invest $3214.29 in stock Y</h3>

==================================================

Explanation:

x = amount to invest in stock X

y = amount to invest in stock Y

x+y = 5000 = total amount to invest

y = 5000-x after subtracting x from both sides

If you invest x dollars and get a 15% return, then you earn 0.15x dollars

Let A = 0.15x

If you invest y = 5000-x dollars and get a 8% return, then you earn 0.08y = 0.08(5000-x) = 400-0.08x dollars in return

Let B = 400-0.08x

In total, you would earn A+B = 0.15x+(400-0.08x) = 0.07x+400 dollars. Set this equal to 10.5% of 5000, which is 0.105*5000 = 525. This means we want to earn 525 dollars in return. Set 0.07x+400 equal to 525 and solve for x

So,

0.07x+400 = 525

0.07x = 525-400

0.07x = 125

x = 125/0.07

x = 1785.71

y = 5000-x

y = 5000-1785.71

y = 3214.29

Advanced Enterprises reports year−end information from 2019 as​ follows: Sales​ (160,250 units) ​$969,000 Cost of goods sold ​(6
Ilya [14]

Answer:

Cost of goods sold = $576,900

Explanation:

The budgeted cost of goods sold will be the sales volume in 2020 multiplied by cost per unit .

Sales volume in year 2020= (100-10)% ×  sales figure for 2019

                                            = 90% × 160,250=  144,225  

Cost of goods sold per unit =  cost of goods sold in 2019/Sales units in 2019

                                              = 641,000/160250=$4

Cost of goods sold =  $4× 144,225 =  $576,900

Cost of goods sold = $576,900
