babunello [35]

Answer: 6250

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Santiago company incurs annual fixed costs of $66,000. variable costs for santiago's product are $34 per unit, and the sales price is $50 per unit. santiago desires to earn an annual profit of $34,000.

The contribution margin ratio approach to determine the sales volume in dollars and units required to earn the desired profit for thus:

Contribution margin ratio = (Sales price - Variable cost)/Sales price

= (50-34)/50

= 16/50

= 0.32

Sales = (66,000 + 34,000)/0.32

= 100,000/0.32

= 312,500

Sales volume in units will be sales divided by price. This will be:

= 312,500/50

= 6250

The city of New Orleans has 200 advertising companies, 199 of which employ designers of normal ability at a salary of $100,000 a

zepelin [54]

Answer:

a. $700,000

b. 6/7 or 85.7%

c. No they will not.

Explanation:

a. Jacobs will earn the normal salary that the other designers in the other companies are getting in addition to the incremental income he brings to the company as a result of his talents.

Incremental income = Revenue with Jacobs - Revenue without Jacobs

= 1,000,000 - 400,000

= $600,000

Jacobs earnings = Normal designer earnings + incremental income

= 100,000 + 600,000

= $700,000

b. Economic rent is the excess amount that the company is paying Jacobs over what it should normally cost to get a designer.

Normal cost of designer is $100,000. Company is therefore paying an economic rent of $600,000.

Proportion of Jacobs salary that is economic rent = $\frac{Economic rent}{Jacobs annual earning}$

= $\frac{600,000}{700,000}$

= 6/7 or 85.7%

c. The company hiring Jacobs will not be making an economic profit because for them to make an economic profit they would have to be making more than the $400,000 that the other firms make. They cannot make this amount because for them to do so they would have to reduce the amount they pay Jacobs. If they do so, Jacobs would leave for greener pastures and then they would be making the same $400,000 that the rest are making.
