Answer:
- a. <em>Break-even quantity:</em> <u>28,000 pens</u>
- b<em>. Price</em>: <u>$1.51 per pen</u>
Explanation:
1. Break-even quantity
<u>a) Revenue, R(x)</u>
The monthly revenue is the product of the price by the number of units sold in the month.
Naming x the number of pens sold in the month:
<u>b) Cost, C(x)</u>
<u />
The monthly cost is the sum of the fixed cost per month plus the variable costs:
- C(x) = $21,000 + 0.25 × x = 21,000 + 0.25x
<u>c) Break-even</u>
Break-even is the point when the revenue and the total costs are equal, this is, when the profit is zero. Write the equation and solve:
Hence, the break-even quantity is 28,000 pens.
2. Price pens must be sold to obtain a monthly profit of $18,000
Profit = Revenue - Total cost
- P(x) = x.p - [ 0.25x + 21,000]
Where p is the price.
- P(x) = x.p - 0.25x - 21,000
Substitute the quantity demanded, x, with 31,000, and the profit, P(x) with 18,000:
- 18,000 = 31,000p - 0.25(31,000) - 21,000
Solve for p and compute:
- 31,000p = 18,000 + 7,750 + 21,000
That is $1.51 per pen.
Answer:
INCORRECT.
In income summary account, all revenue accounts are closed by debiting them and crediting the income summary account. expense accounts are closed by crediting them and debiting income summary account. then on closing income summary account it shows debit balance if there is a net loss and it shows credit balance if there is a net income.
In the given case clever auto services has debit balance of $5,300 i,e it implies that clever auto services has loss .
Therefore above statement is wrong. It implies a loss of $5300 not the net income of $5,300.
Hello,
to get the current yield of the bond, determine first the<span> annual interest payment which is calculated as stated
interest rate times the face value of the bond. In this question, the bond’s
value is $1,000 and the stated interest rate is 6.5 percent, therefore, the
annual interest payment is 65. Finally, the annual interest payment of 65 is
divided by the current market price quote of 101.23 to get the current yield of
64.21%. Hope this helps.</span>
