Explanation:

Gross domestic product (GDP) is the sum of all final goods and services produced in an economic space for a certain period, usually one year, excluding the intermediate consumption used in production. Until the 1980's, the use of Gross National Product (GNP) was preferred, a measure almost identical to GDP but incorporating goods and services produced by external factors. The variation in this macroeconomic magnitude is often used to measure economic growth.

The manager at Vertical Wire Productions reported total sales revenue of $800,000. The variable expenses were $600,000, and ther

Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

$BEP_{dollars} = 500,000$

Explanation:

The first step will be get the contribtuion margin:

$Sales\: Revenue - Variable \:Cost = Contribution \:Margin$

800,000 - 6000,000 = 200,000

This is the amount after variables cost used to pay the fixed cost and make a gain.

Second, we calcualte the contribution margin ratio

$\frac{Contribution \:Margin}{Sales\: Revenue} = Contribution\: Margin\: Ratio$

200,000/800,000 = 0.25

Per dollar of sales 25 cents are available to pay the fixed cost.

Now, we calculate the break even point in dollars

$\frac{Fixed\:Cost}{Contribution\: Margin \:Ratio} = Break\: Even\: Point_{dollars}$

$\frac{125,000}{.025} = 500,000$

Dée Trader opens a brokerage account and purchases 300 shares of Internet Dreams at $36 per share. She borrows $4,500 from her b

meriva

Answer:

A) Dee´s Margin = 58.33%; B) Remaining Margin if price drops to $26 is 30.56% C) She won´t receive a margin call (but close...)

D) Rate of Return = - 32.36%

Explanation:

Hi, first let´s find out what the initial margin is, for that we have to use the following formula.

$Margin=\frac{Equity}{ValueStocks}$

Now, in order to find the equity, we have to find the total value of the stocks and substract the debt from it, since it was 300 shares at $30 per share, the total value of the investment is $7,800, therefore, its equity is $3,300 ($7,800-$4,500).

So everything should look like this

$Margin=\frac{6,300}{10,800} =0.5833$

So the initial margin was 58.33%

If the price drops to $26 by the end of the year, the remaining margin in her account is:

$Margin=\frac{3,300}{10,800} =0.3056$

So the remaining margin one year later, after the stock price dropped to $26 was 30.56%

Now, in order to find the rate of return on her investment, at the end of the year, we have to remember that the money loaned was at 11%, therefore, the best way to find out the return of this investment is to convert this into money, like such.

First (Gross Return of the stock)

$Gross Return=\frac{Final.P-Initial.P}{Initial.P} x100$

$Gross Return=\frac{26-36}{36} x100=-0.2778$

Ok, we have the gross return, which is -$27.78%

The interest expenses are just as follows.

$Interest Expense=4,500*0.11=-495$

To find the return on the investmen, we need to use the following formula.

$RateReturn=\frac{FinalInvestment-InitialInvestment}{InitialInvesment} x100$

The final investment is: Gross return($)+interest Expenses

$FinalInvest=\frac{300*(-10)+(-4,500*0.11)}{10,800} =-0.3236$

This means that, by the end of the year, her return on the investment was -32.36%. In money, this is - $3,495.

Best of luck.
