Answer: 4,030 units
Explanation:
The breakeven point of sales can be calculated by the formula:

Quad Enterprises is considering a new three-year expansion project that requires an initial fixed asset investment of $2.32 million. The fixed asset will be depreciated straight-line to zero over its three-year tax life, after which time it will be worthless. The project is estimated to generate $1.735 million in annual sales, with costs of $650,000. The project requires an initial investment in net working capital of $250,000, and the fixed asset will have a market value of $180,000 at the end of the project. The tax rate is 21 percent.

Year 1 $857,150
Year 2 $857,150
Year 3 $857,150
b. The project's NPV is -$261,126
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Initial cost of investment in fixed asset = $2.32 million
Estimated annual sales = $1,735,000
Estimated annual costs = 650,000
Before-tax income $1,085,000
Company tax (21%) 227,850

Year 3 $857,150 $2,058,874 ($857,150 * 2.402)
NPV = -$261,126
In which one of the following circumstances should a company's managers seriously consider modifying their strategy to strongly differentiate the company's branded footwear from the offerings of rival companies and achieve a competitive advantage based on a wide selection of 450-500 models/styles and "high" S/Q ratings?
a) When one or more rivals produce and market branded footwear with the same (or higher) number of models/styles that the company is offering to the buyers of athletic footwear and also have below-average retail prices in the Internet segment and below-average wholesale prices in the Wholesale segment
b) When many rival companies are spending heavily on retailer support and search engine advertising
c) When one or more rivals also produce and market branded footwear having much the same (or higher) S/Q ratings and these rivals are offering higher mail-in rebates and delivering orders for branded footwear to footwear retailers in 1-2 weeks
d) When the company is struggling to achieve the sales volumes needed to meet or beat the five investor-expected performance targets because the global marketplace for branded footwear is overcrowded with companies locked in a fierce competitive battle to sell 450- 500 models of branded footwear with high S/Q ratings at premium prices to the same comparatively narrow high-end buyer segment
e) When the company's cost per branded pair sold is above the industry average in all four geographic regions
Answer:
The circumstance in which a company's managers should seriously consider modifying their strategy to strongly differentiate the company's branded footwear from the offerings of rival companies and achieve a competitive advantage based on a wide selection of 450-500 models/styles and "high" S/Q ratings is:
c) When one or more rivals also produce and market branded footwear having much the same (or higher) S/Q ratings and these rivals are offering higher mail-in rebates and delivering orders for branded footwear to footwear retailers in 1-2 weeks.
Explanation:
S/Q ratings are Athletic Footwear Styling and Quality ratings. The ratings are championed by a consumer group, which undertakes to rate the styling and quality of the footwear of all footwear producers by assigning a styling-quality or S/Q rating of 0 to 10 stars to each company's branded footwear offerings. If the company has the same rating with a competitor and the competitor employs some strategic moves to better its competitiveness, then the company must change its differentiation strategy.
The company manager considers modifying the strategy when there has been rival with better or same footwear quality and delivery as yours. Thus option C is correct.
The S/Q rating has been the styling and quality rating that has been assigned to the footwear by the consumer groups. The strategy for the selling of an product has been improvised in the market when there has been the presence of a competitor with the same strategy as yours.
Thus company managers seriously consider modifying their strategy when one or more rivals also produce and market branded footwear having much the same (or higher) S/Q ratings and these rivals are offering higher mail-in rebates and delivering orders for branded footwear to footwear retailers in 1-2 weeks. Thus option C is correct.

February 40,000 74,500
March 37,500 65,900
April 39,000 68,750

June 35,000 64,500
High-low:
May 42,300 $74,000 for highest
January 30,000 67,500 for lowest
Difference 12,300 $6,500
Variable costs = $0.53 ($6,500/12,300)
Using May, the total variable cost = 42,300 * $0.53 = $22,419
Fixed cost = $51,581 ($74,000 - $22,419)
or approximately $51,600

1. The highest risk for the exporter is in a. Letter of credit c. Advance payment b. Bill of exchange d. Consignment sales
Answer:
1. The highest risk for the exporter is in
d. Consignment sales.
Explanation:
a) A consignment sale is not an actual sale. The risk remains with the exporter until the consignee has sold the goods and remitted the required amount to the consignor (exporter). With a letter of credit, the exporter has made an actual sale guaranteed for payment by the importer's bank. With advance payment, the exporter has received some payment for the goods before the importer receives them. With a bill of exchange, there is a formal instrument acknowledging the sale. Therefore, a bill of exchange, letter of credit, and advance payment are used for actual sales, while consignment sale is for transfers of goods for sale.

Derek decides to buy a new car. The dealership offers him a choice of paying $600.00 per month for 5 years (with the first payment due next month) or paying some amount today. He can borrow money from his bank to buy the car. The bank requires a 5.00% interest rate. What is the most that he would be willing to pay today rather than making the payments
Answer:
PV= $31,794.12
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Monthly payment= $600
Number of months= 5*12= 60 months
Interest rate= 0.05/12= 0.004167
To calculate the present value of the monthly payments, we need to use the following formula:
PV= A*{(1/i) - 1/[i*(1 + i)^n]}
A= monthly payments
PV= 600*{(1/0.004167) - 1/ [0.004167*(1.004167^60)]}
PV= $31,794.12

Answer:
what is the question and where areu from
) An organization that evaluates the performance of automobiles wants to predict the performance of used cars (cars that are more than one year old). The objective is to predict COST, the maintenance cost (in dollars) of used cars for the first year after they are purchased by a new owner. The explanatory variable is:
Answer:
The explanatory variable is:
period of usage.
Explanation:
As the explanatory variable, the period of usage of the car does not depend on the maintenance cost or its performance. Instead, the maintenance cost and the performance of the automobile, which are response or dependent variables, depend on the period of usage. Period of usage (time) is always an independent or explanatory variable. In this organization, the performance of the automobile does not depend on the maintenance cost, but the two dependent variables (performance and maintenance cost) depend on the period of usage.
