Answer:

See below

Explanation:

The above is an incomplete question. The concluding parts are assuming the following;

Selling price per unit = $54

Current total variable cost = $24.50

Total fixed cost = $69,000

New variable cost will increase by ($2.26 - $1.76)/2 = $0.25

New variable cost will be = ($24.50 + $0.25) = $24.75

Contribution margin = ($54 - $24.75) = $29.25

New fixed cost = ($0.25 × 2,339) + $69,000 = $69,585

Note:

Old break even units = $69,000/$29.5 = 2,335 units

Therefore,

New break even units

= Fixed cost/Contribution margin per unit

= $69,585/$29.5

= 2,397 units

Cozy would have to sell 2,397 units as opposed to 2,335 units in order to break even.

A company with a high ratio of fixed costs:
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is: more likely to experience a loss when sales are down than a company with mostly variable costs.

Explanation:

The fixed cost ratio is a simple ratio that divides fixed costs by net sales.

The profit formula is:

Profit = Sales- Total cost =(Price * Q)-(FC + VC*Q)

Where  

FC=Fixed cost

VC= variable cos t

Q=produce quantity

If sales go down,  we have to pay this fixed cost even if we have no sales.  So if this Fixed cost are high ,  is most likely we are going to experience loss

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Based on the case, you might describe the generic strategy of Allegiant Airlines as:__________.

Cost Focus.

Explanation:

Allegiant Airlines, in its strategy, does not try to provide cost leadership to the airline industry.  But it offers low prices for passenger tickets for its specific routes.  This implies that the low cost that it offers is focused on a narrow niche market because this niche will provide it with competitive advantage in the industry.  Allegiant Airlines also employs some competitive pricing schemes, which have made it difficult for new and upcoming businesses to enter their niche market.  Allegiant also sells flights from other airlines on its site.  This tactical move increases customers' awareness of its dominance as a low fare service.

Lake Co.

Current Liability for Advances from Customers in Dec. 31, 2021 balance sheet:

= $127

Answer:
