Answer:

The answer is below.

Explanation:

The z score is a used in statistics to determine by how many standard deviations the raw score is above or below the mean. The z score is given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\where\ x=raw\ score, \mu=mean,\sigma=standard\ deviation\\\\For\ a\ sample\ size(n):\\\\z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n} }

a) Given that n = 100, μ = 2000, σ = 18

For x < 1995 millimeters:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n} }=\frac{1995-2000}{18/\sqrt{100} }  =-2.78

From the normal distribution table, P(x < 1995) = P(z < -2.78) = 0.0027

b) P(z > z*)  = 10% = 0.1

P(z < z*) = 1 - 0.1 = 0.9

z* = 1.28

z*=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n} }\\\\1.28=\frac{x-2000}{18/\sqrt{100} }\\\\x-2000  =-2.304\\\\x=2002.3\ ml\\\\

From the normal distribution table, P(z < z

3-30 Operating leverage. Cover Rugs is holding a 2-week carpet sale at Josh’s Club, a local warehouse store. Cover Rugs plans to
Leni [432]

Answer:

The step by step answer to your problem is given below:

Explanation:

1A) Break even point for option 1:    

Sales- Variable cost= Fixed cost    

Q* $950-Q*$760= $7410    

Q*$190= $7410  

Q=$7410/$190  

Q= 39 carpets

1B) Breakeven point for Option 2    

Sales- variable cost-rent cost= 0    

Q*$950- $760*Q- (Q*950*10%)= 0    

95Q= 0    

Q= 0

2. At what level of revenues will Cover Rugs earn the same operating income under either option?

Operating income under Option 1 = $190Q - $7140

Operating income under Option 2 = $95Q

We have to find Q such that $190Q - $7140 = $95Q

Q=$7410/$95= 78 Carpets

Revenue= $950 x 78 = $74,100

For Q = 78 Carpets, operating income under both option 1 and 2 will be = $7410

a. For what range of unit sales will Cover Rugs prefer Option 1? b. For what range of unit sales will Cover Rugs prefer Option 2?

For Q > 78, say 79 carpets:

Option 1 gives operating income= (190*79) - 7410= $7600

Option 2 gives operating income= 95*79= $7505

So color rugs will prefer Option 1.

For Q < 78, say 77 carpets:

Option 1 gives operating income= (190*77) - 7410= $7220

Option 2 gives operating income= 95*77= $7315

So color rugs will prefer Option 2.

3. Calculate the degree of operating leverage at sales of 65 units for the two rental options.

Operating Leverage= \frac{Contribution margin}{Operating Income}

= Contribution margin per unit x Numbers of Carpet Sold= Contribution Margin

Under Option 1,

Contribution Margin per unit= $950-$760=$190,

Operating income= $190*65-$7410= $4940.

Degree of Operating Leverage= \frac{190*65}{6175}

=2.5

Under Option 2,

Contribution Margin per unit= $950-$760-$760-0.10*$950=$95,

Operating income= $95x65-$0= $6175.

\frac{95*65}{6175}

=1.0

4. Briefly explain and interpret your answer to requirement 3.

The degree of operating leverage helps managers calculate and anticipate the effects of fluctuations in sales on operating income. The calculation in requirement 3 show that when sales are 65 units, a % change in sales and contribution margin will result in 2.5 times that % change in operating income for option 1. But the same % change in Option 2 because there are no fix costs attached in option 2.

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

$153.01

Explanation:

For computing the monthly payment we need to apply the PMT formula i.e to be shown in the attachment

Given that,  

Present value = $8,100

Future value or Face value = $0

RATE =   60 months = 5 years × 12 months

NPER = 5.04% ÷ 12 months = 0.42%

The formula is shown below:  

= PMT(RATE;NPER;-PV;FV;type)  

The present value come in negative  

So, after applying the above formula, the monthly payment is $153.01
