Answer:

c) $6,660,000

Explanation:

Let Sales = ‘ S ’

Sporting Goods sales = S x 65 % = 0.65 S

Sport Gear sales = S x 35 % = 0.35 S

Contribution of Goods = 0.65 S x 30 %

= 0.195 S

Contribution of Gears = 0.35 S x 50 %

= 0.175 S

Total Contribution Ratio = 0.370 S i.e. 37 %

Contribution Margin at Break Even point = $ 6,660,000

[ Because there is no profit at break even point]

Contribution Margin – Fixed Cost = Profit

Contribution Margin – 6,660,000 = 0

Contribution Margin = $ 6,660,000

Answer:

C. $6,660,000

Explanation:

Total contribution margin is determined as the difference between revenue and variable costs. At the break even point:

Revenue = Variable\ Costs + Fixed\ Costs\\Revenue - Variable\ Costs = Contribution\ Margin=Fixed\ Costs

Therefore, at the break even point, the total contribution margin must equal fixed costs, which are $6,660,000.

The answer is alternative C. $6,660,000

Summarize how compound interest helps you to accumulate savings even faster.
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

The magic of compound interest happens in a way  that the more you put in, the faster your money grows.

Explanation:

The magic of compound interest happens in a way  that the more you put in, the faster your money grows. The interest you earn on the amount you save also earns interest and this snowballing effect makes you accumulate your savings even faster. For example, if you deposit $100 in a savings account that pays 5% interest per year. At the end of the year, you account will have (5%*100= 5) plus the $100 you deposited, coming to a total of $105. At the end of the second year, your $5 interest earned in year 1 will earn another 5% interest and so will the $100 you initially deposited.

I started I added all prime costs(direct materials plus direct labor costs) to overhead costs.

After  having arrived at total manufacturing costs, I divided them by volume of each product to arrive at cost per unit.

I then marked up the cost by 30% to determine market price per unit.

A car dealer who sells only late-model luxury cars recently hired a new salesman and believes that this salesman is selling at l
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

t=\frac{5000-5600}{\frac{800}{\sqrt{16}}}=-3      

Explanation:

Data given and notation      

\bar X=5000 represent the sample mean      

s=800 represent the standard deviation for the sample      

n=16 sample size      

\mu_o =5600 represent the value that we want to test    

\alpha represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.    

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)      

p_v represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)  

State the null and alternative hypotheses.      

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to determine if the mean is lower than 5600, the system of hypothesis would be:      

Null hypothesis:\mu \geq 5600      

Alternative hypothesis:\mu < 5600      

We don't know the population deviation, so for this case is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:      

t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}} (1)      

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".  

Calculate the statistic      

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:      

t=\frac{5000-5600}{\frac{800}{\sqrt{16}}}=-3

Sonja [21]

Answer:

<em>Yes, I will sign the contract. </em>

Explanation:

The break-even exchange rate for the currency options contract is $1.46/BP and the exchange rate at the time of the payment will be $1.43/BP which means a reduction of $0.03 as future value. Since the contract was not signed with the inflationary rate, the receiver is at advantage while the lender is at a loss.
