Answer:

(C) -26%

Explanation:

Initial quantity of pizzas demanded = 10,000 slices

New quantity of pizzas demanded = 7,400 slices

Change in quantity of pizzas demanded = new quantity demanded - initial quantity demanded = 7,400 - 10,000 = -2,600 slices

Percentage change in quantity demanded = (change in quantity of pizzas demanded ÷ initial quantity of pizzas demanded) × 100 = (-2600 ÷ 10,000) × 100 = -0.26 × 100 = -26%

Bateman Corporation sold an office building that it used in its business for $800,950. Bateman bought the building ten years ago
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

The amount of Bateman's gain is $402,850, in character of profits from the sale of property and equipment

Explanation:

The gain of selling an asset is determined by the formula: Sale price minus Book value. The book value of the building is Cost minus accumulated depreciation. So, the book value is 599,525 - 201,425 = 398,100

Then, the amount of Bateman's gain is equal to 800,950 - 398,100 = 402,850.

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

<em>$42.87</em>

Explanation:

<em>From the given question, we recall the following statements.</em>

<em>The Investment in new equipment =$4,000,000 </em>

<em> The Minimum rate of return = 16% </em>

<em> The Expected selling price =$45 per pager </em>

<em> The sales estimated =300,000 </em>

<em> Then,</em>

<em>Cost of target = the selling price - the profit desired </em>

<em> The Expected return on investment =$4,000,000 x 16% =$640,000 </em>

<em> The Estimated profit per pager =640,000/300,000 =$2.13 </em>

<em> Therefore desired profit per pager = $2.13 </em>

<em> Which is,</em>

<em>                 $45 -$2.13 =$42.87 </em>

<em>Finally,  the target cost per unit of the pager =$42.87</em>
