Answer:

12%

Explanation:

Contribution margin ratio is calculated as

= Contribution margin / Sales

Sales [ $12 each × 1,000 drives sold] $12,000

Less Variable costs [$9 each x 1,000 drives sold]

($9,000)

Contribution margin

$3,000

Less Fixed costs

($1,000)

Operating profit

$1,000

Recall that contribution margin ratio

= [ Contribution margin / Sales] × 100

= [ $3,000 / $12,000 ] × 100

= 12%

Therefore, contribution margin ratio is 12%

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

This implies that bus is an inferior good and car is a normal good.

Explanation:

Initially, Jim's income was $5000 a year.

As his income increases to $60,000 a year, he decides to buy a car instead of using the bus.  

In other words, with the increase in income, the demand for traveling by bus is declining.  

This implies that it is an inferior good.  

The demand for the car is increasing with an increase in income.  

So, the car is a normal good.  

An inferior good can be defined as a product that shows negative elasticity. This means with an increase in income its demand declines an vice versa.

A normal good can be defined as a product that shows positive income elasticity. That is, its demand increases with rise in income and vice versa.

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

Limited liability company

Explanation:

A limited liability company is one that the owners are not personally liable for the business. Rather the company is a legal entity on its own and can be sued legally as a sepearte entity from its owners.

It combines features of a corporation and a partnership or sole proprietorship.

This will be the best type of business given that the business will not be expected to earn for the first two years. The sisters will not be personally liable for any debt incurred.

Also the business will continue even if only one of the sisters remains.

So an LLC is the best option for them.

A firm sells a product in a purely competitive market. The marginal cost of the product at the current output of 200 units is $4
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B.

Explanation:

A firm sells a product in a purely competitive market.

The marginal cost of the product at the current output of 200 units is $4.00.

The average variable cost is $3.50.

The market price of the product is $3.00.

The market price is not covering the average variable cost. In this situation, the firm must be incurring losses. To minimize losses the firm should produce less than 1,000 units at the point where marginal cost is equal to market price and the average variable cost is being covered.
