Reynold's Company has a product with fixed costs of $309,000, a unit selling price of $24, and unit variable costs of $21. The b

Serhud [2]

Answer:

The answer is 51,500 units

Explanation:

Break-even sales is a point in which a business or a firm neither make profit nor loss. Total Revenue equals total cost. Break-even sales help to know the point at which business starts to make profit.

Break-even sales is:

Fixed cost/contribution margin.

Where contribution margin is sales price per unit minus variable cost per unit.

In the question, variable cost are decreased by $3.

So the new variable cost is $21 - $3

=$18.

Contribution margin is $24 -$18

Therefore, The break-even sales (units) if the variable costs are decreased by $3 is:

$309,000/$6

=51,500 units

Consider the following two mutually exclusive projects:Year Cash Flow (X) Cash Flow (Y)0 ?$16,400 ?$16,400 1 6,660 7,190 2 7,240

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

1a. 7.12%

b. 6.99%

2. 9.69%

Explanation:

The IRR is the discount rate that equates the after tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested.

The IRR can be calculated using a financial calculator.

The IRR for project X :

Cash flow in year 0 = $-16,400

Cash flow in year 1 = $6,660

Cash flow in year 2 = $7240

Cash flow in year 3= $4760

IRR = 7.12%

The IRR for project Y :

Cash flow in year 0 = $-16,400

Cash flow in year 1 = $7,190

Cash flow in year 2 = $7,780

Cash flow in year 3 = $3530

IRR = 6.99%

The cross over rate is the rate that equates the cash flow from both projects.

The first step is to subtract the cash flow from project Y from the cash flow of project X

Cash flow for year 0 = $16400 - $16400 = 0

Cash flow for year 1 = $6,660 - $7,190 = $-530

Cash flow for year 2 =$7,240 -$7,780 =$-540

Cash flow for year 3 = $4,760 - $3,530 = $1230

The next step is to find the discount rate using a financial calculator.

Cash flow for year zero = 0

Cash flow for year one = $-530

Cash flow for year 2 =$-540

Cash flow for year 3 =$1230

Cross over rate = 9.69%

I hope my answer helps you

andrezito [222]

Answer:

The average fixed cost is $2.4.

Explanation:

Vipsana's Gyros House sells gyros.

The cost of ingredients to make a gyro is $2.00.

Vipsana pays her employees $60 per day.

She also incurs a fixed cost of $120 per day.

The cost incurred on ingredients and workers is a variable cost.

The total fixed is thus $120.

The average fixed cost for 50 gyros

= $\frac{TFC}{Q}$

= $\frac{120}{50}$

= $2.4

The economic inefficiency of a monopolist can be measured by the A. area above marginal cost but beneath demand from the monopol

Reil [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

A monopoly firm is neither productively nor allocative efficient. The reason behind this is that it does not utilize the resources efficiently and produces below the socially optimal level of output.

Unlike perfect competition, which produces at the point where price equals marginal cost, a monopolist produces at the point where the price is greater than marginal cost.

This inefficiency is visible through the decrease in consumer surplus and deadweight loss. The difference between socially optimal level of output and monopoly output also represents inefficiency. The value of the goods and services that could have been made if monopolist chose to produce at a socially optimal level also shows inefficiency.
