Answer:

Break even point in dollar sales = $1,050,000

Explanation:

Break Even Point in dollar sales = Fixed Cost/ Contribution margin percentage

Contribution margin percentage = (Contribution margin/ Sales) X 100

Here we have for the year 2017

Contribution margin = $194,750

Sales = $779,000

Contribution margin percentage = ($194,750/$779,000) X 100 = 25%

Break even point in dollar sales = Fixed Cost $262,500/25%

= $1,050,000

ankoles [38]

Answer:

The payback period is more than 5 years

Explanation:

Net present value is the Net value of all cash inflows and outflows in present value term. All the cash flows are discounted using a required rate of return.

Year  Cash flow    PV factor   Present Value

0       ($490,000)       1              ($490,000)

1         $40,000       0.909         $36,360

2        $10,000        0.826         $8,260

3        $120,000      0.751          $90,120

4        $90,000       0.683         $61,470

5        $180,000      0.621        <u> $111,780 </u>

Net Present Value                   ($182,010)

NPV of this Investment is negative so, it is not acceptable.  

Payback period

Total Net cash inflow of the investment is $440,000 and Initial investment is $490,000. This investment will take more than 5 years to payback the initial investment.

Ken consumes two goods, Sprite and potato chips. Sprite costs $1 per can, and he consumes it to the point where the marginal uti
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

The correct option is c. $8.

Explanation:

Ken will maximize utility where the following equation holds:

MU of Sprite / Price of Sprite = MU of potato chips / Price of potato chips ................. (1)

Where;

MU of Sprite = Marginal utility of Sprite = 3

Price of Sprite = $1 per can

From the table in the question, equation (1) holds at the point where Marginal utility of potato chips is 6 since the Potato chips cost $2 per bag.

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

MU of Sprite / Price of Sprite = MU of potato chips / Price of potato chips => 3 / 1 = 6 / 2 = 3

Since when the marginal utility of potato chips that maximizes utility is 6, Ken consumes 4 Bags of Potato chips monthly and pays $2 per bag at this point, the amount he spends on potato chips each month can be calculated as follows:

Amount spent on potato monthly = Number of bags of Potato chips consumed monthly * Cost of potato chips per bag = 4 * $2 = $8

Therefore, the correct option is c. $8.
