Answer: The parliament is likely to allocate £ 1,23,93,800.62

We arrive at the answer as follows:

Amount allocated by President Obama    $100,000,000

Amount England wants to contribute        20% of President Obama's allocation

Amount England wants to contribute in USD  =

                                              0.2 * 100,000,000 = USD 2,00,00,000  

Exchange Rate                                      $1. 61371/1 pound sterling

We can read the problem as if $1.61371 is equal to 1 pound sterling, how many pound sterlings are equal to $2,00,00,000?

Let number of pound sterlings be x

So, \frac{1.61371}{1}= \frac{100000000}{x}

x = \frac{100000000}{1.61731}

x = 1,23,93,800.62

frutty [35]

Answer:

$75

Explanation:

$5 to $6.5 is a 1.3% increase and if the investor bought 50 shares of $5 he bought a total of $250 worth of stock. If you multiply the $250 by 1.3% it will be $325. But the question asks for the capital gain so you would subtract $325 and $250 which is $75.

STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

$2,553,191

Explanation:

The formula to compute the break even point in dollars amount is presented below:

= (Fixed cost ) ÷ (Profit volume ratio)

where,  

Fixed cost = $300,000

And the profit volume ratio would be

= (Contribution margin) ÷ (Sales) × 100

We assume the sales be 100%

So, the variable cost is

= 88.25%

And, the contribution margin is

= 100 - 88.25

= 11.75%

So, the break even sales would be

= $300,000 ÷  11.75%

= $2,553,191
