Answer:

B. 20,904

Explanation:

For computing the additional pens first we have to determine the contribution per unit which is shown below:

Revenue $500,000

Less: Plastic cost -$200,000

Less: ink cost -$1,000

Contribution margin $299,000

Divided by Number of units sold ($500,000 ÷ $2) $250,000

Contribution per unit $1.196

Now the additional pens required is

= $25,000 ÷ $1.196

= $20,904

Thus to maximize profit, Santora Company should manufacture Bread machine only.

The unit of Bread machine can be produced in 2,000 machine hours is 8,000 units

The profit for Toaster Ovens and Bread Machines is $10 and $90 respectively; thus  

six toaster ovens per machine hour will generate profit of $60 = ($10 *6)

four bread machines per machine hour  will generate profit of $360 = ($90 *4)

In the same machine hour the profit from Bread machines are significantly higher then Toaster over. Thus to maximize profit, Santora Company should manufacture Bread machine only.

The unit of Bread machine can be produced in 2,000 machine hours is 8,000 units (= 2,000 * 4)

The profit for 8,000 units of Bread machine is $720,000 = (8,000 * $90)

The market for chewing gum is in equilibrium with a current price of 50 cents per pack and a quantity of 100,000 packs per day.
frez [133]

Answer:

A) an increase in the price of other kinds of candy

Explanation:

If the price of substitute products (other types of candy) increases, then the suppliers of chewing gum can increase their price without the quantity demanded decreasing. If the decrease in the price of chewing gum is smaller than the increase in the price of substitute products, the quantity demanded will increase.

If there was a price increase of the main ingredients used to produce chewing gum, then the supply curve would shift to the left (option B is wrong).

If the workers signed an agreement that lowered their wages, then the supply curve would shift to the right (option C is wrong).

A decrease in the number of young people in the market would decrease the quantity demanded for chewing gum, which in turn would decrease the equilibrium price (option D is wrong).

A decrease in income would also decrease the quantity demanded, which would in turn decrease the equilibrium price (option E is wrong).
