Answer:

The most you can pay for the pitcher is $17.32

Explanation:

A mark up is a percentage that is always applied on the cost to come up at a required gain over cost. The cost is always taken to be 100% when apply a mark up on cost.

If the mark up is of 27% and cost is 100% then a selling price of 22 will be equal to cost + markup.

Let cost be x.

Selling price = Cost + Mark up

22 = 100% * x + 27% * x

22 = 1x + 0.27x

22 = 1.27 x

22/1.27 = x

x = $17.3228 rounded off to $17.32

Matt wants to attend a university in California and is waiting to hear back from schools where he has applied. He has filled out
Andreyy89

Answer:

Getting a work-study job

Working at an on-campus job

Explanation:

The first option that will meet Matt's needs is to get a work-study job. A work-study job is like a financial aid program available in the universities to help students out of their financial needs. Work-study job is a part-time job that will enable Matt to work while studying at the University in California. It allows Matt to engage in a part-time job for some hours a week during his free time, like 20 hours a week while he studies in school and earns some money to subsidize the cost of his studies since Matt wants to avoid paying debt once he is out of school.

A work-study job is the best option for Matt's finance position because it will provide financial assistance for the cost of his education.

The other option for Matt is to work at an on-campus job. This is almost the same as a work-study job because it is a part-time job and carried out only in his free time. It is a part-time job done by students in the university while studying to help their financial needs. The only difference with the work-study job is that the job here will only be done on campus, unlike work-study job which can be done outside the campus. Here Matt will have to get a part-time job on campus and not outside the campus.

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer: c. Contribution margin ratio = 1 − Variable cost ratio

Explanation:

The Contribution margin ratio is defined as the difference between the sales price of a good and it's variable costs. It is expressed as a percentage.

The formula is,

Contribution Margin Ratio = Sales - Variable Costs / Sales

Breaking the formula down further we have,

Contribution Margin Ratio = Sales/ Sales - Variable Costs / Sales

Contribution Margin Ratio = 1 - Variable Costs / Sales

Variable Cost/Sales is the Variable Cost Ratio.

So Option C is correct.
