Nombre Company management predicts $430,000 of variable costs, $970,000 of fixed costs, and a pretax income of $275,500 in the next period. Management also predicts that the contribution margin per unit will be $53.

Compute the total amount of dollar sales for the next period.

Compute the number of units to be sold next period.

The total amount of dollar sales for the next period is $1,675,500

The number of units to be sold next period is 23,500

Explanation:

The sales less the total cost gives the pretax income. The costs are the fixed and variable cost. Contribution margin is the sales less the variable cost. Hence the pretax income is the difference between the contribution margin and the fixed cost.

Let the total sales in dollars be G

G - $430,000 - $970,000 = $275,500

G = $275,500 + $430,000 + $970,000

G = $1,675,500

Hence the total contribution margin

=  $1,675,500  - $430,000

= $1,245,500

Let the total number of units to be sold be t

$1,245,500 /t = $53

t = $1,245,500 /53

= 23,500

its kinda hard to answer this when we dont have all the information that we need.

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.
