Gerald has been a sales representative for Goldsmith’s Department Store for the past five years. When Gerald was hired, the general manager told Gerald that he would have a job there as long as he made $3,000 in sales each month. Every month, Gerald has exceeded that level in sales, so he is surprised when his supervisor calls him into the office and fires him. Gerald tells the supervisor about the promise from the general manager not to fire him as long as his sales were $3,000 each month. The supervisor responds by telling Gerald that the law in this state is employment at will, so he can fire him at any time for any reason. If Gerald sues Goldsmith’s for wrongful termination, he will likely:

be successful because the general manager orally promised him that he would remain in his job as long as his sales stayed at a specific level, and he has maintained that level....

The mortality rate from melanoma (skin cancer) during the 1950s was recorded for each of the 48 contiguous United States, plus Washington D.C. (as reported by Fisher, L.D. and van Belle, G. (1993). Biostatistics: A Methodology for the Health Sciences. John Wiley and Sons, New York, NY, p. 292).

In context, the negative relationship (shown in the scatterplot above) means that:

The more southern the state, the higher the melanoma death rate.Good job! From the scatterplot we see that the lower the latitude the higher the mortality per 10 million. In other words, the more southern the state, the higher the death rate. Note that since the response variable is the mortality pe...

Company X produces widgets. The following information relates to the its current production: Sale price per unit:

Variable costs per unit:$400

Manufacturing

$240

Marketing and administrative

$70

Total fixed costs:

Manufacturing

Marketing and administrative

$760,000 $230,000

A special sales order request was received for 7400 widgets at a price of $350 per widget. Assuming fixed costs remain unchanged, how would operating income be affected if the special order is accepted? (NOTE: Assume the company has capacity and that regular sales are not affected by the special order.)

To determine how the special order affects operating income, we need to calculate the incremental revenue and incremental costs associated with the order. Here are the steps:Calculate the total revenue from the special order: [ \text{Total Revenue} = \text{Special Order Price per Unit} \times \...

Waterbury Inc., manufactures and sells RF17, a specialty raft used for whitewater rafting. In 2021, due to increased competition, Waterbury must reduce its selling price to $315 in order to sell 20,000 units. Total fixed costs is $1,680,000. The company expects to be able to reduce the investment in the division to $2,100,000 but still requires a 20% rate of return on investment. If fixed costs cannot be reduced in this time frame, what is the target variable cost per unit? Remember: enter whole integer numbers without Ks, commas, decimals, $, etc.

Calculate the required return on investment (ROI): [ \text{Required ROI} = \text{Investment} \times \text{Rate of Return} ] [ \text{Required ROI} = $2,100,000 \times 0.20 = $420,000 ]Determine the total revenue needed to achieve the required ROI: [ \text{Total Revenue} = \text{Total Fixed ...
