Each unit sells: $80
Each unit costs to make: $32
Fixed costs: 72,000
Goal: 2,000 units sold
If they meet their goal, let's see how that would go:
(2,000 * 80) - (2,000 * 32) - 72,000 = ?
160,000 - 64,000 - 72,000 = 24,000
24,000 is the profit they would make for hitting their goal.
Question 1:
What is the break-even point? The break-even means they make no money, but they also lose no money. So that final number (24,000) would be 0 instead. How many units would they have to make to hit zero?
(x * 80) - (x * 32) - 72,000 = 0.
80x - 32x = 72,000
48x = 72,000
x = 1500 units
We can verify by using our first formula we've already determined, using this new value for units.
(1,500* 80) - (1,500 * 32) - 72,000 = ?
120,000 - 48,000 - 72,000 = 0? True!
Question 2: If they increase their expenses by 16,000, what is their new break even point?
(x * 80) - (x * 32) - 72,000 - 16000 = 0.
80x - 32x - 88000 = 0
48x = 88000
x = 1833
Question 3: 10% reduction in selling price and 10% increase in sales. (Assuming based off the original formula the problem provided.)
Original: (2,000 * 80) - (2,000 * 32) - 72,000 = ?
10% Reduction in price: 8
80-8 = 72
10% increase in sales: 200
2000 + 200 = 2200
Plugin to our formula:
(2200 * 72) - (2200 * 32) - 72,000 = ?
158400 - 70400 - 72,000 = 16,000
Since this number is positive, this is income. (D)
Answer:
C) if the court finds that Shawn has substantially performed, he will be able to recover the contract price less any damages caused by his failure to perform as promised.
Explanation:
From the question Harry signed a contract with Shawn to build a house. Harry made some specification to build the house. But Shawn did not follow the specifications now Harry doesn't want to pay him the contract amount.
Under doctrine of specific performance, Harry can pay less money than the contract price. Because Shawn has performed substantially, he is not entitled to receive the contract price as agreed.
Answer: b. An investor will be able to sell these shares for a higher price and make a profit.
Explanation:
Capital gains are a way to earn a return from owning stock in a company. They involve buying stock at a certain price and then selling the stock when the price increases. The difference between the selling and the buying prices is your capital gain.

Answer:
1.42
Explanation:
The fixed asset turnover is a financial ratio that shows how much sales is generated by management for each $1 invested in fixed asset over the period. It is the ratio of sales to average fixed asset.
Average fixed asset is the sum of the beginning and ending fixed asset divided by 2.
Average fixed assets
= ($4.2 + $6.3)/2 (Amount in millions)
= $5.25 million
The company's fixed asset turnover ratio for 2018
= $7.4/$5.2
= 1.42
It means that the company makes a sales revenue of $1.42 for every $1 invested in fixed assets.
