Derst Inc. sells a particular textbook for $140. Variable expenses are $25 per book. At the current volume of 6,000 books sold p
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

Option (B) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Selling price of a product = $140 per textbook

Variable expenses = $25 per book

Books sold per year = 6,000 books (It is the break even point)

The break even point indicates that there is no profit or loss incurred at the sales.

This means that the sales revenue is equal to the total cost incurred to produced these goods.

Sales per unit - Variable cost per unit - Fixed costs per unit = 0

$140 - $25 - Fixed costs = 0

$115 = Fixed costs per unit

Therefore, the total amount of fixed cost is calculated as follows:

= Fixed cost per unit × Number of books sold

= $115 × 6,000

= $690,000

Lana71 [14]

Answer: PED = -1.665

The price demand elasticity is relatively elastic because PED is greater than 1..(ignore the minus sign)

Explanation:

Using the formula PED = % change in quantity/ % change in price

PED = ((Q1 - Q0)/(Q1 + Q0))/((P1 -P0)/(P1+P0))...EQU 1 where Q1 = 50 is quantity of product at Price P1 =10 and Q0 = 25 is quantity of product at Price P0 = 15 and PED is price of elasticity

Substituting figures into equ1

PED = ((50 - 25)/(50+25)) /((10 -15)/(10+15))

PED = -1.665

Nielson Motors is considering an opportunity that requires an investment of $1,000,000 today and will provide $250,000 one year
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

NPV = 87,528.18

The company should invest.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Nielson Motors is considering an opportunity that requires an investment of $1,000,000 today and will provide $250,000 one year from now, $450,000 two years from now, and $650,000 three years from now.

We need to calculate the net present value. If the NPV is positive, the company should invest. The project will increase the value of the company.

NPV= -Io + ∑[Cf/(1+i)^n]

Cf= cash flow

Year1= 250,000/ (1.10)= 227,272.73

Year2= 450,000 / (1.10^2)= 371,900.83

Year3= 650,000/ 1.10^3= 488,354.62

Total= 1,087,528.18

NPV = - 1,000,000 + 1,087,528.18= 87,528.18
