Answer:

The profit margin is 12.42%

Explanation:

Profit margin is the ratio of net profit to net sales. Net profit is the difference between the gross profit and the operating expenses. The gross profit is the difference between the net sales and cost of sales.

Net sales is the total sales less the sales return, discount and allowances.

As such, Net profit is the difference between the sales and all expenses.

Net profit = $312,000 - $2,000 - $4,000 - $184,000 - $84,000

= $38,000

Net sales = $312,000 - $2,000 - $4,000

= $306,000

Profit margin = $38,000/$306,000

= 12.42%

Answer:

The profit margin is 12.4%

Explanation:

Profit margin is used to measure the amount of profit. It is the amount by which the money gotten from sells exceed the cost in a business. It is the ratio of net income to net sales

Net sales = Sales revenue -  (sales discounts + sales returns and allowances )

Net sales = $312000 - ($4000 + $2000) = $312000 - $6000 = $306000

Net income = Net sales - cost of goods sold - operating expenses  

Net income = $306000 - $184000 - $84000 = $38000

Profit margin = Net income / net sales

Profit margin = $38000/$306000 = 0.124 = 12.4%.

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

Order size = 200 units

Number of order  = 5 times

Explanation:

<em>The number of order per year  will be equal to the Annual demand divided by the EOQ.</em>

<em>No of orders = Annual Demand / EOQ</em>

Economic order quantity (EOQ)

The Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) is the order size that minimizes the balance of ordering cost and holding cost. At the EOQ, the carrying cost is equal to the holding cost.

It is computed using he formulae below

EOQ = √(2× Co× D)/Ch

Ch- Carrying cost per unit per annum-  $1

Co- Ordering cost per order -20

EOQ =√(2× 20× 1000)/1

        = 200 units

Order size = 200 units

Number of order = 1000/200 = 5 times

Explain four benefits to the US food exporter of the data researched from secondary sources.
ELEN [110]

Answer:

- The data will be acquired faster

- The data will be acquired on a cheper price

- It offers different perspective

- Eliminate bias from self-made research

Explanation:

Secondary sources are a form of data that is created by people who are not directly involved in the event. They do not experience in the event nor involved in the initial experiment that contributed to the event.

The data will be acquired faster since the food exporter do not have to arrange the research themselves. This eliminate the need to purchase research equipment and hiring researcher workers, which will lead to lower cost.

Not only that, using secondary sources will allow them to analyze the data from a neutral position. They do not developed bias that might come from making a conclusion by their own. They could also easily gather similar data from different sources in order to measure the data's accuracy.

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

A) One important difference between using cigarettes and using dollars as money is that cigarettes have intrinsic value.

B) U.S. dollars are an example of fiat money.

Explanation:

Prisioners had two uses for cigarettes: they could use them as a medium of exchange, thus acted as money, and they could use cigarettes to smoke. Therefore the intrinsic value of cigarettes would be the tobbacco which is used to smoke, as opposed to U.S. dollars where its intrinsic value is just the paper or metal if it were a coin.

U.S. dollars are an example of fiat money because it's a currency that has been established as legal tender by the U.S. Government, but it has no intrinsic value of its own.

Consider two markets: the market for coffee and the market for hot cocoa·The initial equilibrium for both markets is the same, t
den301095 [7]

Answer:

The elasticity of supply for hot cocoa is 1.43.

(D) Supply in the market for coffee is less elastic than supply in the market for hot cocoa

Explanation:

Using the midpoint formula,

Elasticity of supply for hot cocoa = (change in quantity supplied/average quantity supplied) ÷ (change in price/average price)

change in quantity supplied = 101 - 31 = 70

average quantity supplied = (101+31)/2 = 66

70/66 = 1.06

change in price = 9.75 - 4.5 = 5.25

average price = (9.75+4.5)/2 = 7.125

5.25/7.125 = 0.74

Elasticity of supply for hot cocoa = 1.06 ÷ 0.74 = 1.43. The supply for hot cocoa is elastic because the elasticity of supply is greater than 1.

Elasticity of supply for coffee = (73 - 31)/(73+31)/2 ÷ 0.74 = 42/52 ÷ 0.74 = 0.81 ÷ 0.74 = 1.09. The supply for coffee is elastic because the elasticity of supply is greater than 1.

However, supply in the market for coffee is less elastic than supply in the market for hot cocoa because the elasticity of supply for coffee is less than that of hot coffee.
