In cost-volume-profit analysis, the unit contribution margin is: Group of answer choices Sales price per unit less unit total cost per unit. Sales price per unit less unit fixed cost per unit. Sales price per unit less total variable cost per unit. )Sales price per unit less cost of goods sold per unit. The same as the contribution margin ratio.
Answer: Sales price per unit less total variable cost per unit.
Explanation:
Cost-volume-profit analysis works by dividing the expenses faced by a business in the production and/ or selling of goods into fixed and variable costs.
To calculate the contribution margin in such a scenario, the Total variable cost incurred per unit is deducted from the sales price per unit. From this figure, the fixed cost can then be subtracted to find the operating income per unit.
If one wants to find the breakeven volume, you can divide the Fixed assets by the Contribution margin.
g If the price elasticity of demand is 4, a 5 percent decrease in price will increase quantity demanded by
Answer: 20%
Explanation:
The price elasticity of demand shows the increase in quantity demanded as a result of a decrease in price and vice versa.
It is calculated by the formula:
Price elasticity of demand = Change in quantity demanded / Change in price
The formula can therefore be used to find the increase in quantity. Price elasticities are usually denoted in negatives even if not shown so:
-4 = x / -5%
x = -4 * -5%
x = 20%

Supply-side deflation caused by productivity growth is _______ likely to have harmful consequences than demand-side deflation because it is ______ disruptive to labor markets.
Answer: more; more
Explanation:
Supply-side deflation caused by productivity growth is more likely to have harmful consequences than demand-side deflation because it is more disruptive to labor markets.
Supply side deflation caused by productivity growth means that the prices of goods and services are falling because producers are producing more than there is a demand for and so prices have to be cut in order to get people to buy more.
This will have harmful effects on the labor markets because companies would have to reduce the number of people they hire in order to maintain some sort of profitability thereby increasing unemployment in the country.
Suppose that the current one-year rate (one-year spot rate) and expected one-year T-bill rates over the following three years (i.e., years 2, 3, and 4, respectively) are as follows: 1R1 = 0.3%, E(2r 1) = 1.3%, E(3r1) = 9.4%, E(4r1) = 9.75%. Using the unbiased expectations theory, calculate the current (long-term) rates for one-, two-, three-, and four-year maturity Treasury securities. (Round your answers to 3 decimal places. (e.g., 32.161))
Answer:
Year 1 long term rate is the same as first year 1 year rate = 0.3%
Year 2
= √[(1 + year 1 rate%) * (1 + year 2 rate%)] - 1
= √[(1 + 0.3%) * (1 + 1.3%)] - 1
= 0.799%
Year 3
= ³√[(1 + year 1 rate%) * (1 + year 2 rate%) * (1 + year 3 rate%)] - 1
= ³√[(1 + 0.3%) * (1 + 1.3%) * (1 * 9.4)] - 1
= 3.588%
Year 4
= ⁴√[(1 + year 1 rate%) * (1 + year 2 rate%) * (1 + year 3 rate%) * (1 + 4 year rate)] - 1
= ⁴√[(1 + 0.3%) * (1 + 1.3%) * (1 * 9.4) * (1 + 9.75%)] - 1
= 5.095%

1%=$3
105%=$3*105
105%(before tax sales price)=$315
If the currency in circulation is $500 billion, the required reserve ratio is 5 percent, checkable deposits are $700 billion, and excess reserves total $10 billion, then the money multiplier for the M1 is
Answer:
2.35
Explanation:
The computation of the money multiplier for the M1 is shown below:
As we know that
Money supply(M1) = Currency in circulation + Checkable deposits
M1 money supply is = $500 billion + $700 billion
= $1,200 billion
Now the M1 money multiplier is
We know that
Money multiplier = Money supply ÷ Monetary base
where,
Monetary base = Currency in circulation + Bank excess reserves
= $500 billion + $10 billion
= $510 billion
We know that,
Money multiplier = Money supply ÷ Monetary base
= $1,200 ÷ $510
= 2.35

The equivalent units of production for conversion costs for June were 103,500 units
a project has a beta of 1/07, the risk free rate is 2.1% and the market risk premium is 8.4% the projected expected rate o return is
Answer:
11.09%
Explanation:
Correct word is "a project has a beta of 1.07, the risk free rate is 2.1% and the market risk premium is 8.4%.The project expected rate of return is?"
As per CAPM, Expected rate of return = Risk free rate + (Beta*Market risk premium)
Expected rate of return = 2.1% + (1.07*8.4%)
Expected rate of return = 2.1% + 8.99%
Expected rate of return = 11.09%
So, the project expected rate of return is 11.09%.
There will be a lower equilibrium price and quantity if
O demand increases and supply increases
o demand increases and supply decreases
O demand decreases and supply stays the same
O none of the above
Answer: demand decreases and supply stays the same
Explanation:
The equilibrium price refers to the price whereby the quantity of goods that's demanded and the quantity of goods that's supplied is equal.
On the other hand, the equilibrium quantity is gotten when the quantity of goods demanded and supplied are equal. This is gotten when the demand curve and the supply curve intersects.
It should be noted that there will be a lower equilibrium price and quantity if
In a situation whereby the demand increases and the supply remains the same, the equilibrium quantity and the equilibrium price will increase and vice versa.

An issue of common stock currently sells for $52 per share, has an expected annual dividend to be paid at the end of the year of $0.90 per share, and has an expected growth rate to infinity of 5% per year. The expected rate of return on this security is:______
Answer: 6.73%
Explanation:
The expected rate of return will be calculated by using the formula:
Po= D1 / ( Ke – g )
Where,
Po = Current Price of the stock = $52
D1 = Expected dividend = $0.90
Ke = Expected rate of Return
g = Expected growth rate = 5% = 0.05
We'll then slot in the values into the equation. Therefore,
52.00 = 0.90 / (Ke – 0.05 )
(Ke – 0.05 ) = 0.90 / 52.00
(Ke – 0.05 ) = 0.01731
Ke = 0.05 + 0.01731
Ke = 0.06731
Ke = 6.73%
Therefore, the expected rate of return on this security is 6.73%.
