Josh's weekly budget for lunch is $24. He eats only pizza and burgers. Each pizza costs $6 and each burger costs $3. Josh knows
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

The answer is: Josh's utility maximizing point is when he buys 2 pizzas and 4 burgers.

Explanation:

If Josh gets equal marginal utility per dollar spent when buying one pizza and 2 burgers, that means that every pizza and every burger give Josh 10.67 utility unit per dollar spent. So Josh can obtain maximum 16 units of utility with his budget and his purchasing options (= $24 x 0.67 units of utility per dollar). The way he can maximize his utility is by buying two packs of one pizza and two burgers per pack, since every pack will give him 8 units of utility.

Consider the following: Lumber Revenues, $120,000; Hardware Revenues, $90,000; Cost of Sales, $130,000; All other costs and expe
ANEK [815]

Answer:

19.05%

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Lumber Revenues = $120,000

Hardware Revenues = $90,000

Cost of Sales = $130,000

All other costs and expenses = $35,000

Investment Income = $8,000

Income Tax Expense = $13,000

Net Income = $40,000

Now,

The net profit margin = [( Net income) ÷ (Total revenue ) ] × 100%

or

The net profit margin = [ $40,000 ÷ ( $120,000 + $90,000 ) ] × 100%

or

The net profit margin = [ $40,000 ÷ $210,000 ] × 100%

or

The net profit margin = 0.1905 × 100%

or

The net profit margin = 19.05%
