Maya company manufactures a product which sells for $20 each. each unit of product has a variable cost of $5 to manufacture. fixed costs normally incurred are $60,000. maya company is considering automating the manufacturing process, which would require a capital investment which would increase fixed costs by $30,000. as a result of the automation, variable costs would decrease by 20%. what would the new breakeven level in units be for maya company if it decides to automate the manufacturing process?

5,625 units

Explanation:

As provided,

Selling price of the product = $20 for each unit

Variable cost associated with this = $5 per unit

Current fixed cost = $60,000

In case of automation,

Revised fixed cost = $60,000 + $30,000 = $90,000

Revised variable cost = $5 - 20% = $4 each unit

Revised contribution = $20 - $4 = $16

Break-even level in units, in case of automation = $90,000/$16 = 5,625 units

answer with step-by-step explanation:

a. wx is perpendicular to xy - true:

(since x is adjacent to x and y and all angles are 90 degrees in a square, therefore wx is perpendicular to xy)

b. ∠w is congruent to ∠x - true:

(all angles in a square are equal to each other)

c. ∠w is supplementary to ∠x - true:

(∠w and ∠x both are right angles which add up to 180 degrees so they are supplementary angles)

d. wxyz is a rhombus - true:

(a rhombus has all sides equal in length and so has a square so it is a rhombus)

e. wxyz is a trapezoid - false:

(a trapezoid has only one pair of parallel sides while a square has two pairs of parallel sides)

f. wx is parallel to yz - true:

(wx and yz are parallel to each other)

1   all nations face the problem of scarcity because there are limited resources and unlimited wants. nations do not have enough factors of production to produce everything that their population wants. entrepreneurial resources initiate businesses to make new goods and services; labor resources produce goods and services.

2 there are four factors of production: natural resources, labor resources, capital resources, and entrepreneurial resources. natural resources are raw materials from nature that are used to produce goods. trees, water, and grains are natural resources. some natural resources, such as wheat and cattle, are renewable

3 wants

things that you do not need to have in order to survive, but would like to have

needs

things that you must have in order to survive

goods

physical products

services

tasks that a business perform for customers

resources

items that people can use to make or obtain what they need or want

determine

to settle or decide by choice of alternatives or possiblities
