Answer:
in units: 18,900
in dollars: $ 41,013
Step-by-step explanation:
The break even point is the sales dollar amount or sales in unit at whichthe operating income of the firm equals to zero:
Where:
<em><u>Contribution margin:</u></em>
2.17 - 1.27 = 1 dollar per unit
Break even:
$18,900 fixed cost / $1 per unit = 18,900 units
Then, in sales:
18,900 x $2.17 each = 41.013
break even point:
9514 1404 393
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the length of fence parallel to the river. Then the dimension of perpendicular to the river will be half the remaining fence: (640-x)/2. The total area will be ...
A = x(640-x)/2
This is the equation of a parabola that opens downward. It has zeros at x=0 and x=640, so its axis of symmetry is x = (0+640)/2 = 320. That is, the peak of the area curve is found when x=320.
The dimensions of the garden with the largest area are 160 ft wide by 320 ft long, where the long side is the river side.
