Congratulations! You you just decided to become the proud owner of a new food truck offering traditional Mediterranean cuisine. Kitchen and related equipment costs are $100,000.

Variable costs include food and beverages estimated at $6 per platter (meat, rice, vegetable, and pita bread). Meals will be priced at $10.

Answers

Answer:

1. Using the cost-plus pricing method, the selling price = $5.25

2. The change in selling price from 2018 to 2019 is $3.69 or 33.5% reduction.

3. To break-even, unit sales = 4,000 units

To realize a target return of $200,000, the unit sales = 5,600 units

4. Units to break-even = 12,500 meals

Sales revenue at break-even point = $125,000

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Fixed costs = $3,000

Variable costs per unit = $5

Units manufactured = 100 units

Total variable costs = $500 ($5 * 100)

Total costs = $3,500 ($500 + $3,000)

Cost per unit = $3.50

Markup percentage = 50%

Using the cost-plus pricing method, the selling price = $5.25 ($3.50 * 1.5)

b) Fixed costs per year = $150,000

Variable costs per unit = $3

Production units = 30,000

Total variable costs = $90,000 ($3 * 30,000)

Cost-based pricing with a profit margin = $3 per unit

Total costs = $240,000 ($90,000 + $150,000)

Cost per unit = $8 ($240,000/30,000)

Selling price per unit = $11 ($8 + $3)

Variable cost = $2 per unit

Production units = 65,000 units

Total costs = ($2 * 65,000 + $150,000)

= $280,000 ($130,000 + $150,000)

Unit cost = $4.31 ($280,000/65,000)

Selling price = $7.31 ($4.31 + $3)

Change in selling = $3.69 ($11 = $7.31) = 33.5%

c) Fixed costs = $500,000

Per unit costs = $75

Proposed price = $200

Contribution margin per unit = $125 ($200 - $75)

To break-even, unit sales = $500,000/$125 = 4,000 units

To realize a target return of $200,000, the unit sales = $700,000/$125 = 5,600 units

d) Kitchen and related equipment costs = $100,000

Other fixed costs per year = $50,000

Variable costs = $6 per platter

Price per meal = $10

Contribution margin per meal = $4 ($10 - $6)

Units to break-even = $50,000/$4 = 12,500 meals

Sales revenue at break-even point = $50,000/40% = $125,000

X,and z are midpoints.find the length of each segment

Answers

Answers:

MZ = 10ZO = 10MO = 20XZ = 9YZ = 7

===========================================

Explanation:

Side MO is twice as long as the midsegment XY. Note how XY and MO are parallel.

This makes

MO = 2*XY = 2*10 = 20

Side MO breaks into two equal halves MZ and ZO

Each of MZ and ZO are 20/2 = 10 units long.

Put another way: XY, MZ and ZO are all the same length (all 10 units long).

---------------

The diagram shows that segment NO is 18 units long, which cuts in half to 18/2 = 9. This is the length of NY, YO and XZ

Also, MN = 14 which cuts in half to 7. This means MX, XN and YZ are all 7 units each.

At a large Midwestern university, a simple random sample of 100 entering freshmen in 1993 found that 20 of the sampled freshmen finished in the bottom third of their high school class. Admission standards at the university were tightened in 1995. In 1997, a simple random sample of 100 entering freshmen found that only 10 finished in the bottom third of their high school class. Let p 1 and p 2 be the proportions of all entering freshmen in 1993 and 1997, respectively, who graduated in the bottom third of their high school class. What is a 90% plus four confidence interval for p 1 – p 2?

Answers

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval for the difference of proportions is (0.01775,0.18225).

Step-by-step explanation:

Before building the confidence interval, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction of normal variables.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

p1 -> 1993

20 out of 100, so:

[tex]p_1 = \frac{20}{100} = 0.2[/tex]

[tex]s_1 = \sqrt{\frac{0.2*0.8}{100}} = 0.04[/tex]

p2 -> 1997

10 out of 100, so:

[tex]p_2 = \frac{10}{100} = 0.1[/tex]

[tex]s_2 = \sqrt{\frac{0.1*0.9}{100}} = 0.03[/tex]

Distribution of p1 – p2:

[tex]p = p_1 - p_2 = 0.2 - 0.1 = 0.1[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{s_1^2+s_2^2} = \sqrt{0.04^2 + 0.03^2} = 0.05[/tex]

Confidence interval:

[tex]p \pm zs[/tex]

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

90% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.1[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.645[/tex].  

The lower bound of the interval is:

[tex]p - zs = 0.1 - 1.645*0.05 = 0.01775 [/tex]

The upper bound of the interval is:

[tex]p + zs = 0.1 + 1.645*0.05 = 0.18225 [/tex]

The 90% confidence interval for the difference of proportions is (0.01775,0.18225).

The expression into an equivalent form would be; A [-2y + 5x ] / [3 x- 2y]

What are equivalent expressions?

Those expressions that might look different but their simplified forms are the same expressions are called equivalent expressions.

To derive equivalent expressions of some expressions, we can either make it look more complex or simple. Usually, we simplify it.

[-2/x + 5/y] / [3/y - 2/x]

This expression could also be given by;

[-2y + 5x /xy] / [3 x- 2y /xy]

Now, we know that x would cancel out;

[-2y + 5x ] / [3 x- 2y]

Hence, the expression into an equivalent form would be; A [-2y + 5x ] / [3 x- 2y]

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

They travel 500 - 300 = 200 miles in 2 hours so their combined speed is

100 mph.

If their respective speed are x and y mph then we have the system

x + y = 100

x - y = 20

Adding the 2 equations

2x = 120

x = 60

and y = 40.

The other solution is that y = 60 mph and x = 40 mph.

from eqn(ii)..

x+y=105

substituting the value of x in eqn (i)..

10x+5y=750

or, 10(105-y)+5y=750

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Constant speed of submarine = 24 km/h

Depth under sea = 5 km

Distance of submarine from lighthouse = 13 km

Find:

Speed of the submarine

Computation:

At steady speed, the distance between both the submarine and the lighthouse base decreases at a rate of 24 km/hr.

So, when it is 13 kilometres from its starting point, the speed remains constant at 24 kilometres per hour.
