To avoid the cost of sending out coupons you do not need to, you ask the data science team to plan an experiment just large enough (with just enough statistical power) to reliably detect a treatment effect if the true effect on those who open the mail and realize they have the coupon is a $2 increase in revenue over the next year. the data science team tells you that an experiment with 100,000 people in the treatment group (leaving the remaining 900,000 in the control group) will be well-powered to detect an overall difference between the entire treatment and control groups of $2 in revenue over the next year. to send out the minimum number of coupons required while still having enough statistical power to detect a $2 effect of opening the mail, can you send out fewer, the same number of, or more coupons than 100,000?

Caleb construction (cc) incurs supervisor salaries expense in the construction of homes. if cc manufactures 100 homes in a year, fixed supervisor salaries will be $400,000. with the current construction supervisors, cc's productive capacity is 150 homes in a year. however, if cc is contracts to build more than 150 homes per year, it will need to hire additional supervisors, which are hired as full-time rather than temporary employees. cc's productive capacity would then become 200 homes per year, and salaries expense would increase to $470,000. how would cc’s salaries expense be properly classified? fixed variable mixed stepped curvilinear

Lucido products markets two computer games: claimjumper and makeover. a contribution format income statement for a recent month for the two games appears below: claimjumper makeover total sales $ 30,000 $ 70,000 $ 100,000 variable expenses 20,000 50,000 70,000 contribution margin $ 10,000 $ 20,000 30,000 fixed expenses 24,000 net operating income $ 6,000 required: 1. compute the overall contribution margin (cm) ratio for the company.. 2. compute the overall break-even point for the company in dollar sales. 3. complete the contribution format income statement at break-even point for the company showing the appropriate levels of sales for the two products. (do not round intermediate calculations.)

Special order carson manufacturing, inc., sells a single product for $36 per unit. at an operating level of 8,000 units, variable costs are $18 per unit and fixed costs $10 per unit. carson has been offered a price of $20 per unit on a special order of 2,000 units by big mart discount stores, which would use its own brand name on the item. if carson accepts the order, material cost will be $3 less per unit than for regular production. however, special stamping equipment costing $4,000 would be needed to process the order; the equipment would then be discarded. assuming that volume remains within the relevant range, prepare an analysis of differential revenue and costs to determine whether carson should accept the special order. use a negative sign with answer to only indicate an income loss from special order; otherwise do not use negative signs with your answers.
