Answer:

The demand for pork would decrease and the equilibrium price of pork would decrease.

Explanation:

Substitute goods are goods that can be consumed in place of each other.

If the price of chicken falls, consumers would increase the quantity demanded of chicken and reduce their demand for pork. The fall in the demand for pork would lead to a leftward shift in the demand curve for pork. A leftward shift in the demand curve while the supply curve remains unchanged would lead to a fall in equilibrium price of pork.

Answer:

Future value= $151,018.51

Explanation:

Future value of money measures how much a present amount of money will be in the future at a given interest rate.

The interest gained on money shows the time value of money. One dollar today is less than one dollar in one year's time

The formula for future value is

Future value = Present value * (1 + rate)^time

As we have two periods in this case (10 years and 20 years)

Future value = Present value * {(1 + rate1)^time1} * {(1 + rate2)^time2}

Future value = 12,500 * {(1 + 0.07)^10} * {(1 + 0.095)^20}

Future value= $151,018.51

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

$1,275,000

Explanation:

The computation of the  contribution margin is shown below:

As we know that

Contribution margin = Sales - variable cost

or

Selling price per unit - variable cost per unit

And, the direct material per unit, direct labor per unit, and the  Variable overhead per unit are variable cost

So, if 50,000 units are sold, the contribution margin per unit is

= 50,000 × ($33 - $1.50 - $2.50 - $3.50)

= $1,275,000
