Answer:

60.6%

Explanation:

Let x represent the number of pints sold and y represents the number of gallon sold.  She earns $3.50 for each pint she sells, and $10 for each gallon, she earns $20,000 in all by selling 3,300 containers Hence:

3.5x + 10y = 20000                   (1)

Also:

x + y = 3300                               (2)

We have to solve equation 1 and 2 simultaneously, multiply equation 2 by 3.5 and subtract from equation 1. This gives:

6.5y = 9500

Divide both sides by 6.5

6.5y/6.5 = 8450/6.5

y = 1300

Put y = 1300 in equation 2

x + 1300 = 3300

x = 3300 - 1300

x = 2000

Therefore 2000 pints and 1300 gallons were sold

The percentage of earnings from pints = number of pints sold/ total number sold * 100%

The percentage of earnings from pints = 2000/3300 *100% = 60.6%

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

5,182 Units

Explanation:

The computation of additional units is given below:-

Operating income = Contribution Margin Per unit × Units - Fixed cost

= ($4.50 - $1.75) × 29,000 - 8,500

= $71,250

Operating income is increased by 20%

Operating income = $71,250 × 1.20

= $85,500

So, per units

$85,500 = ($4.50 - $1.75) × Units - 8,500

= $94,000 ÷ 2.75

= 34,181.82

Additional Units

= 34,181.82 - 29,000

= 5,182 Units

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

The answer is: ALL THE OPTIONS ARE WRONG

Explanation:

A) In the short run, the firm will shut down if the price of its product is < $12.

B) In the long run, the firm will shut down if the price of its product is < $15.

C) The minimum value of variable cost equals the variable cost of producing 1 single unit, not the variable cost of producing 200 units.

D) If the firm's fixed costs are $500, it means that they decreased. According to the question the fixed costs were $690 (230 units x $3 per unit). So if the fixed costs decrease, then the average total cost should also decrease, not increase to $16.
