Ivanhoe Company had $177,900 of net income in 2019 when the selling price per unit was $154, the variable costs per unit were 598, and the fixed costs were $572.500. Management expects per unit data and total fixed costs to remain the same in 2020. The president of Ivanhoe Company is under pressure from stockholders to increase not income by $93.800 in 2020. (a) Compute the number of units sold in 2019.

13,400 units

Explanation:

Data given in the question

Sale price = $154

Variable cost = $98

Fixed cost = $572,500

Net income = $177,900

So, Let us assume the number of units sold in 2019 be X

(Sales price - Variable costs) × sales units - Fixed cost = Net income

($154 - $98)  × X - $572,500 = $177,900

$56 × X - $572,500 = $177,900

$56 × X = $177,900 + $572,500

$56 × X = $750,400

X = 13,400 units

Hence, the number of units sold in 2019 is 13,400 units

two years ago, when picking flowers in the mountains back of yosemite valley, i found a book. it was blotted and storm-beaten; all of its outer pages were mealy and crumbly. the paper seemed to dissolve like the snow beneath which it had been buried, however; many of the inner pages were well preserved. and although all were more or less stained and torn, whole chapters were easily readable. this is the condition of the great open book of yosemite glaciers today; its granite pages have been torn and blurred by the same storms that wasted the castaway book.
