Hi there! The answer is 7%

The price of the book is $ 22.
Santino bought it for $ 23.54.
Therefore, the amount of tax is $ 1.54

Now we can find the sales tax rate by using the following formula:
$tax \: rate = \frac{tax}{price \: excluding \: tax} \times 100\%$

Filling in gives:
$tax \: rate \: = \frac{1.54}{22} \times 100\% = 7\%$

irina [24]

Answer:

Increase the production to decrease the fixed cost per unit

Explanation:

The reason is that if the production increases then the fixed cost will start decrease because the level of production and fixed cost per unit are inversely proportional to each other. Now if the production increases to 1250 ($500/0.4) units then the firm is at no profit and no loss position (Breakeven position). So all the firm has to do is increase its production above 1250 and generate the demand of increased production at the same price.

sineoko [7]

A firm maximizes its profitability when it "configures its internal operations to support the position selected by it on the efficiency frontier".

In economics, profit maximization is the short run or long run process by which a firm may decide the value, information, and yield levels that prompt the best benefit.

The general guideline is that the firm maximizes profit by delivering that amount of yield where negligible income breaks even with peripheral expense. The profit maximization issue can likewise be drawn closer from the information side.
