NoFly Corporation sells three different models of a mosquito "zapper." Model A12 sells for $60 and has variable costs of $43. Mo
Lunna [17]

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Model A12:

selling price=  $60

variable cost= $43

Model B22:

selling price= $111

variable costs= $79

Model C124:

selling price= $402

variable costs= $309.

Sales mix:

A12= 60%

B22= 27%

C124= 13%.

Fixed costs= $225,789

First, we need to calculate the break-even point in units for the company as a whole:

Break-even point (units)= Total fixed costs / Weighted average contribution margin ratio

Weighted average contribution margin ratio= (weighted average selling price - weighted average unitary variable cost)

Weighted average contribution margin ratio= (0.6*60 + 0.27*111 + 0.13*402) - (0.6*43 + 0.27*79 + 0.13*309)

Weighted average contribution margin ratio= 30.93

Break-even point (units)= 225,789/30.93

Break-even point (units)= 7,300 units

Now, for each product:

Sales mix:

A12= 0.6*7,300= 4,380

B22= 0.27*7,300= 1,971

C124= 0.13*7,300= 949

Which is not a reason for supporting ethical relativism?
raketka [301]

This is not the reason why not support ethical relativism; Ethical relativism holds that there is a right and wrong, even though we do not agree about what is right and wrong and If people disagree about some moral matter, their disagreement will always be due to their having different moral values.

Vilka [71]

Answer:

operating Income = Sales – Variable Costs – Fixed Costs

A CVP analysis is used to determine the sales volume required to achieve a specified profit level. Therefore, the analysis reveals the break-even point where the sales volume yields a net operating income of zero and the sales cutoff amount that generates the first dollar of profit.

Cost-volume profit analysis is an essential tool used to guide managerial, financial and investment decisions.

COST-VOLUME PROFIT ANALYSIS

Contribution Margin and Contribution Margin Percentage

The first step required to perform a CVP analysis is to display the revenue and expense line items in a Contribution Margin Income Statement and compute the Contribution Margin Ratio.
