Answer: The Break-Even Point will reduce from $4,285.71 to $4,125
Explanation:
To get the Break-Even Point we can divide Fixed Assets by the Contribution margin.
The Contribution Margin is the Selling Price minus the Variable Cost.
For Scenario 1 the Break-Even Point will be,
= 15,000 / ( 6 - 2.50)
= $4,285.71
For Scenario 2 the Break-Even Point is,
= 16,500 / 6.5 -2.5
= $4,125
The Break-Even Point for Scenario 2 means that even though the higher Fixed Costs could have led to a higher Break-Even Point, the higher price contributed more than the fixed costs did and led to an ultimately lower Break-Even Point than the first Scenario.
Answer:
Total value of the investment= $57,320.73
Explanation:
<u>First, we need to calculate the future value of the first part of the investment. We will calculate the future value for the monthly deposit for five years and then the lump sum for another five years.</u>
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= monthly deposit
i= 0.04/12= 0.003333
n= 5*12= 60 months
FV= {322*[(1.003333^60) - 1]} / 0.003333
FV= $21,348.05
<u>For the lump sum:</u>
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
n= 12*5= 60
i= 0.05/12= 0.004167
FV= 21,348.05*(1.004167^60)
FV= $27,397.75
<u>Now, the future value of the second part of the investment:</u>
<u></u>
n= 60
i= 0.0041667
A= 440
FV= {440*[(1.004167^60) - 1]} / 0.004167
FV= $29,922.98
Total value of the investment= 27,397.75 + 29,922.98
Total value of the investment= $57,320.73
The correct answer is "cuticle." The waxy substance that helps plants retain water is called cuticle. A cuticle is the protecting film covering. It consists of lipid and hydrocarbon polymers that is impregnated with wax. It is synthesize by the epidermal cells.
Answer:
option (D) $50 billion.
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Additional investment spending = $20 billion
MPC = 0.6
Now,
Increase in aggregate demand = [1 ÷ (1 - mpc) ] × Investment
or
Increase in aggregate demand = [1 ÷ (1 - 0.4) ] × $20 billion
or
Increase in aggregate demand = (1 ÷ 0.4) × $20 billion
or
Increase in aggregate demand = 2.5 × $20 billion
or
Increase in aggregate demand = $50 billion
Hence.
the correct answer is option (D) $50 billion.
