US-Mobile manufactures and sells two products, tablet computers and smartphones, in the ratio of 5:3. Fixed costs are $100,860, and the contribution margin per composite unit is $123. What number of each type of product is sold at the break-even point

Tablets= 512

Smartphones= 308

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Fixed costs are $100,860, and the contribution margin per composite unit is $123.

First, we need to calculate the break-even point in units for the whole company:

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= 100,860 / 123

Break-even point in units= 820

Now, for each product line:

Tablets= 5/8= 0.625

Smartphones= 3/8= 0.375

Units:

Tablets=0.625*820= 512

Smartphones= 0.375*820= 308

the correct answer is economics is a game without winners or losers.

unlike sports or games economic is a game without losers or winner rather it is a game where everyone wins. parties of business doing businesses exchange money with each other and hence exchange is done on the basis of goods. one party takes the goods and other sales it so there is winner on both sides. each party values more highly the good it gets than the good it gives up. both sides exchange only because both intend to increase their value. so there is no concept of lose or win.
