Answer:

Please find the complete question in the attachment.

Explanation:

\beta the margin of contribution unit= 130-25-22-17-14 \ \ \ \ \ \  \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ =52

\alpha Margin Contribution Unit = 90-10-21-7-10\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ = 42

8

Contribution losses =62000\times 42 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ = -2604000

Fixed cost avoidable =102000\times 20 \ \ \  \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ = 2040000

The margin of Alpha contributions =17000\times 52 \  \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ =884000

Fiscal benefits (disadvantage)= 320000

Papessa [141]

Answer:

$70,000

Explanation:

Under a Comparative negligence theory,

When an accident occurs, the blame or fault is determined by the contributions of each party towards the accident.

In a pure comparative negligence theory, the victim or plaintiff who files a case, sue the other party and received some part of the damages and hence each party receives the amount related to their damages minus the part of their fault.

In our case, Annette fault contributes 30% to the collision and determined that her total loss was $100,000.

So, Annette will recover:

= Total loss - 30% of fault

= $100,000 - 0.3 × $100,000

= $100,000 - $30,000

= $70,000
