Gena Manufacturing Company has a fixed cost of $263,000 for the production of tubes. Estimated sales are 153,800 units. A before tax profit of $126,114 is desired by the controller. If the tubes sell for $24 each, what unit contribution margin is required to attain the profit target

2.530 units  contribution margin is required to attain the profit target

Solution:

Given,

Fixed cost = $263,000

Estimated sales are 153,800 units

Tax profit of $126,114

Now,

(Fixed cost + desired profit) ÷ Contribution margin per unit

= Units necessary to earn desired profit ($263,000 + $126,114 ) ÷ ($153,800 - $24)

= $389,114 ÷ $153,776

= 2.530 units

being born in poverty would limit the people's chances, opportunities and benefits.

this happen because of several things, such as:

- poor people tend to gain less access to good education and nutrition. this mean that their chance to obtain high paying jobs would also be limited.

- poor people tend to socialize with other poor people while the rich tend to socialize with other rich people. this means that simply throguh their social circle, rich people would have more business opportunities compared to the poor people.

- rich people tend to have more capital in their disposal. this would benefit them in business since it is far easier for them to fund their business operation compared to poor people.
