melisa1 [442]

Answer:

There is a financial disadvantage of ($30,000).

Explanation:

The discontinuity of product X would result in the contribution lost.

Sales that would be lost = $40 × 10,000 units = $400,000

Relevant variable cost with the production of product X that would be saved = $32 × 10,000 units = $320,000

Contribution lost = Sales lost - Variable cost saved

Contribution lost = $400,000 - $320,000

Contribution lost = $80,000

Saving in fixed costs = $120,000 - $70,000 (this would not be incurred) = $50,000

However, still contribution lost is more than the saving in fixed costs

Therefore, the financial disadvantage = $80,000 - $50,000 = ($30,000)

natta225 [31]

Answer:

$50 billion.

Explanation:

Current Account represents the balance of Trade (Imports & Exports) plus net income and direct payments. Countries strive to maintain their current account surplus which is an indicator that the country is producing and exporting more than its consumption and imports. In this case, it is clearly stated that there are no other factors like income or transfers, so we just have to compare exports and imports. The formula for Current Account in this case is:

Exports - Imports

⇒ 150 - 100 = $50 billion.

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

45%

Explanation:

Given the following :

Sales unit = 64000

Sales revenue = $1,280,000

Direct materials and directly labor = $640,000

Other variable cost = $64,000

Fixed cost = $360,000

Contribution margin ratio:

(Sales revenue - variable expenses) / sales revenue

Total variable expenses = (Direct materials and directly labor + other variable expenses)

Total variable expenses = (640000 + 64000) = $704,000

Contribution margin ratio :

$(1,280,000 - 704,000) / $1,280,000

$576,000 / $1,280,000

= 0.45

0.45 * 100 = 45%
