Answer:

Break-even point (dollars)= $2,218,919

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Fixed costs= $821,000

Variable costs rate= 63%

If the variable cost rate is 63%, then the contribution margin rate is:

Contribution margin ratio= 1 - 0.63

Contribution margin ratio= 0.37

Now, the break-even point in sales revenue:

Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio

Break-even point (dollars)= 821,000 / 0.37

Break-even point (dollars)= $2,218,919

Answer:

$468,844 approx.

Explanation:

Assumption: Since the question is incomplete, with the available information it has been construed that calculation of bond price is required and the question has been solved accordingly.

The price of a bond is the present value of future cash receipts it generates to the investor in the form of interest stream and principal stream.

$B_{0} = \frac{i}{(1\ +\ ytm)^{1} }\ +\ \frac{i}{(1\ +\ ytm)^{2} }\ +.....+\frac{i}{(1\ +\ ytm)^{n} } \ + \frac{RV}{(1\ +\ ytm)^{n} }$

wherein,

$B_{0}$ = price of bond as on today

i = annual coupon payments

ytm= investor's expectation of interest or market rate of interest on similar bonds

RV = Redemption value of such bonds assumed to be the face value

n = term to maturity

$B_{0} = \frac{22500}{(1\ +\ .05)^{1} }\ +\ \frac{22500}{(1\ +\ .05)^{2} }\ +.....+\frac{22500}{(1\ +\ .05)^{20} } \ + \frac{500000}{(1\ +\ .05)^{20} }$

$B_{0}=$ 12.46221 × 22,500 + 0.376889 × 22,500 = 280,399.725 + 188444.5

$B_{0} =$ $468,844 approx

This is the present value of the bond which is lower than it's face value because market rate of return of similar bonds is higher than the coupon rate of payment by Westside Corporation.

Explanation:

Thus, it is any intangible offering that involves a deed, performance, or effort that cannot be physically possessed by the service takers.

This scenario best illustrates the intangibility of services.
