Answer:

Proposal A: 5,455 units

Proposal B: 5,770 units

Explanation:

The break-even point is the number of units required for the revenue to equal the total costs.

For proposal A:

Fixed Costs = $60,000

Variable Costs = $13 / unit

Selling Price = $24 / unit

$(P-VC)*n-FC = 0\\(24-13)*n-60,000 = 0\\n=5,454.5\ units$

For proposal B:

Fixed Costs = $75,000

Variable Costs = $11 / unit

Selling Price = $24 / unit

$(P-VC)*n-FC = 0\\(24-11)*n-75,000 = 0\\n=5,769.2\ units$

Rounding up to the next whole unit, the break-even points for proposal A and B, respectively, are 5,455 and 5,770 units.

Gabe industries sells two products, basic models and deluxe models. Basic models sell for $44 per unit with variable costs of $2

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Basic models Deluxe models

Sales price $44 $54

Variable costs $25 $25

Contribution margin $9 $29

Sales mix 1 3

Total contribution margin $9 $87

Contribution margin per unit = $9 + $87 = $96

Weighted contribution margin= Total contribution margin / Units

= $96 / $4

= $24

Break even point = Total fixed costs / Weighted contribution margin

Break even point = $1,441 / $24

Break even point = 60 units

•Basic units = 60 × 63.33% = 38 units of basic

•Deluxe units = 60 × 43.33% = 26 units of Deluxe units

Dovator [93]

Answer:

rounding to two decimal places: 11.11%

Explanation:

we can se the approximate formula for YTM

$YTM = \frac{C + \frac{F-P}{n }}{\frac{F+P}{2}}$

C= 57.5 (1,000 x 11.5%/2)

Face value = 1000

P= 1050 (market value)

n= 24 (12 years x 2 payment per year)

$YTM = \frac{57.5 + \frac{1,00 - 1,050}{24}}{\frac{1,000+1,050}{2}}$

semiannual YTM = 5.4065041%

This is a semiannual rate as we consider semiannula payment.

We need to convert into annual rate:

$(1 + 0.054065041)^{2} - 1$

YTM 11.1053109921343000%

rounding to two decimal places: 11.11%

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

operation cash flow ( OCF ) is $98800

Explanation:

given data

number of units = 3800 units

variable cost = $185 per unit

fixed costs = $364,000

depreciation expense = $104,000

sales price = $305 per unit

tax rate = 35 %

fix cost = $360,000

to find out

what is the OCF given this analysis

solution

we know operation cash flow ( OCF ) is express as

OCF = [ { selling - variable cost ) × no of units } - fixed cost ] × [ tax rate ] + [ deprecation × tax rate ] ..............................1

put here all these value

OCF = [ { 305 - 185 ) × 3800 } - 360000 ] × [ 35% of income before tax ] + [ 104,000 × 0.35 ]

OCF = 96000 - 0.35×96000 + 36400

OCF = 62400 + 36400

OCF = $98800
