    The answer is B. Comparable sales.

    “The use of comparable sales is not an income approach to valuation of a business, it is a market approach. Under the comparable sales approach, the value of a business is determined by comparing it to other entities with comparable characteristics for which the value is more readily determinable.”

    This was a tricky one

    -There are two reasons demand would increase in the US:

    1)Stoleway mentioned the first one – Weaker currency means imports are more expensive, and demand for local products will increase

    2)Because the US dollar is cheaper, China will import more US goods. Greater net exports (for the US) will increase demand

    In China, with a stronger currency, imports will increase. Because China is importing more, demand for local goods will decrease. A decrease in net exports will decrease demand.

    A ceramics manufacturer sold cups last year for $7.50 each. Variable costs of manufacturing were $2.25 per unit. The company needed to sell 20,000 cups to break even. Net income was $5,040. This year, the company expects the following changes: sales price per cup to be $9.00; variable manufacturing costs to increase 33.3%; fixed costs to increase 10%; and the income tax rate to remain at 40%. Sales in the coming year are expected to exceed last year's sales by 1,000 units. How many units does the company expect to sell this year?

    A) 21,000

    B) 21,600

    C) 21,960

    D) 22,600

    D is the correct answer, but I keep getting C

    Please solve the following equation

    (5.25 x S – 105000) x (1-0.40) = 5040 then S will be sale for last year. Add 1000 units to it, you get answer D

    5.25 is the contribution margin ( 7.50 -2.25 )

    contribution margin x 20000= 105000 is the Fixed cost

    (1- 0.40) is the after tax , since 5040 is Net Income and Net Income is always after tax.

    Good question.

    Hi guys, are any of you reviewing with Becker? Today the program is giving me problems, in B1 working on the homework. When I'm getting questions correct and then exiting the homework, my “Unanswered/Incorrect” homework number does not decrease. I tried logging out and logging in again, re-doing the homework but it is not registering them as complete.

    While reworking it shows the number of time attempted correctly but previous answer is N/A. Has this happened to anyone? How did you fix it?
