How do you calculate the variable cost?

1 answer:

6 0

Calculate total variable cost by multiplying the cost to make one unit of your product by the number of products you've developed. For example, if it costs $60 to make one unit of your product, and you've made 20 units, your total variable cost is $60 x 20, or $1,200.

Hope this helps have a great day :)

Answer:

In 2009, the U.S. government imposed a 35% tariff on tires imported from China. (The numbers and equations used here are simplified based on the results of a much more complicated model.) Demand is given by QD = 105 − 1.5P where QD is in millions of tires per year. Supply is QS = 1.5873P − 15.87.

Bill wants to give Maria a $590,000 gift in two years. If money is worth 12% compounded semiannually, what is Maria's gift worth

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

the present value is $467,335.2613

Explanation:

The computation of the value worth today is shown below:

= Amount in two years ÷ (1 + rate of interest)^number of years

= $590,000 ÷ (1 + 12% ÷ 2)^2×2

= $590,000 ÷ 1.06^4

= $590,000 ÷ 1.26247696

= $467,335.2613

Hence, the present value is $467,335.2613

We simply applied the above formula so that the correct value could come

And, the same is to be considered

Paula is considering the purchase of a new car. She has narrowed her search to two cars that are equally appealing to her. Car A

wolverine [178]

Answer:

Paula should purchase car B.

Explanation:

If Paula purchases car A, then her total payments will be $22,000 ($458.33 per month).

If instead she purchases car B, she will need to finance $20,200 for 3 years and her monthly payments will be $447.11. Total payments = $447.11 x 48 = $21,461.28.

this is an ordinary annuity and in order to calculate the monthly payment you must:

monthly payment = principal / annuity factor (PV, 0.25%, 48 periods) = $20,200 / 45.17869 = $447.1134511 = $447.11.

The price of good X increases from $55 to $60, and quantity demanded decreases from 500 to 400. The price of good Y increases fr

nikklg [1K]

Answer:

demand curve for Good X is more elastic than the demand curve for Good Y

Demand for good X is elastic because the coefficient of elasticity is greater than 1.

Demand for good Y is inelastic because the coefficient of elasticity is less than 1.

consumers who buy Good Y are less sensitive to price changes than consumers who buy Good X

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.

Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price

If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.

Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one

Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded.

For good X,

Percentage change in price = $55 / $60 - 1 = | -0.0833| = 8.33%

Percentage change in quantity demanded = 500 / 400 - 1 = 0.25 = 25%

Elasticity of demand = 25% / 8.33% = 3

Demand for good X is elastic because the coefficient of elasticity is greater than 1.

For good Y,

Percentage change in price = $55 / $60 - 1 = | -0.0833| = 8.33%

Percentage change in quantity demanded = 500 / 475 - 1 = 0.0526 = 5.26%

Elasticity of demand = 5.26% / 8.33% = 0.63

Demand for good Y is inelastic because the coefficient of elasticity is less than 1.

consumers who buy Good Y are less sensitive to price changes than consumers who buy Good X
