Answer:
Projects W and X have lower expected returns
Projects Y and Z have higher expected returns
Explanation:
Given
[tex]\begin{array}{ccc}{Project} & {Beta} & {IRR} & {W} & {.67} & {9.5\%} & {X} & {.74} & {10.6\%} & {Y} & {1.37} & {14.1\%}& {Z} & {1.48} & {17.1\%} \ \end{array}[/tex]
[tex]T\ Bill\ Rate = 5.1\%[/tex]
[tex]Expected\ Return = 12.1\%[/tex]
Solving (a): Compare the expected return of each project to 12.1%
Expected Return of each project is calculated as:
[tex]Project = T\ Bill + (Beta * (Expected\ Return - T\ Bill))[/tex]
[tex]Project = 5.1\% + (Beta * (12.1\% - 5.1\%))[/tex]
[tex]Project = 5.1\% + (Beta * 7.0\%)[/tex]
For Project W:
[tex]W= 5.1\% + (0.67* 7.0\%)[/tex]
[tex]W= 5.1\% + 4.69\%[/tex]
[tex]W= 9.79\%[/tex]
Lower Expected return
For Project X:
[tex]X = 5.1\% + (0.74 * 7.0\%)[/tex]
[tex]X = 5.1\% + 5.18\%[/tex]
[tex]X = 10.28\%[/tex]
Lower Expected return
For Project Y:
[tex]Y = 5.1\% + (1.37 * 7.0\%)[/tex]
[tex]Y = 5.1\% + 9.59\%[/tex]
[tex]Y = 14.69\%[/tex]
Higher Expected return
For Project Z:
[tex]Z = 5.1\% + (1.48 * 7.0\%)[/tex]
[tex]Z = 5.1\% + 10.36\%[/tex]
[tex]Z = 15.46\%[/tex]
Higher Expected return

Which of the following will not cause the production possibility frontier to shift? Group of answer choices the introduction of "fiber optic" technology a land reclamation program an increase in the working population a reduction in unemployment an explosion destroying a chemical plant
Answer:
an increase in the working population
Explanation:
The Production possibilities frontier (PPF) is a curve that shows the various combination of two goods a company can produce when all its resources are fully utilised.
The PPC is concave to the origin. This means that as more quantities of a product is produced, the fewer resources it has available to produce another good. As a result, less of the other product would be produced. So, the opportunity cost of producing a good increase as more and more of that good is produced.
The PPF can shift either inward or outward.
An outward shift is associated with an increase in output while an inward shift is associated with a reduction in output.
Factors that cause the PPF to shift
1. changes in technology. technological progress leads to outward shift of the PPF. introduction of "fiber optic" technology would shift the PPF outward.
2. changes in available resources. a land reclamation program would increase the land available for production and this would increase output. While an explosion destroying a chemical plant would reduce output and lead to an inward shift of the PPF
3. changes in the labour force. A decrease in unemployment would increase output and shift the the PPF outward
Working population is the number of people between 15-59.

Answer:
Integration.
Explanation:
Human resources management (HRM) can be defined as an art of managing, controlling and improving the number of people (employees or workers), functions, activities which are being used effectively and efficiently by an organization.
Thus, human resources managers are saddled with the responsibility of recruiting, managing and improving the welfare and working conditions of the employees working in an organization.

This is usually achieved through a recruitment process, which typically involves advertising a vacant position and accepting applications (resumes) from applicants who meet the minimum requirements.
University Printing Services offer a program of reproducing class notes for participating professors teaching large classes with an enrollment uniformly distributed between 200 and 300 students. Professor Pulat has subscribed to this program. A copy of her notes costs $8 to produce and it sells for $12. The students purchase their books at the start of the semester. Any unsold notes are shredded for recycling as she makes changes to her notes every semester. In the meantime, when all copies are sold, no additional copies are printed. If the University Printing Services wants to maximize its revenues, how many copies should it print
Answer:
233 copies
Explanation:
Cost of shortage (Cs)= Revenue per unit - Cost per unit
Cost of shortage (Cs) = $12 - $8
Cost of shortage (Cs) = $4
Cost of excess (Ce) = Original cost per unit - Salvage value per unit
Cost of excess (Ce) = $8 - $0
Cost of excess (Ce) = $8
Service Level (SL) = Cs/(Cs+Ce)
Service Level (SL) = $4 / ($4+$8)
Service Level (SL) = $4/$12
Service Level (SL) = 0.33
Optimum Level = Minimum student + SL*(Maximum student - Minimum student)
Optimum Level = 200 + 0.33*(300 - 200)
Optimum Level = 200 + 33
Optimum Level = 233 copies
On January 1, 2021, Wooten Technology Associates sold computer equipment to the Denison Company. Delivery was made on January 1, 2021, but payment for the equipment of $10,100 is not due until December 31, 2021. Assuming that Wooten views the time value of money to be a significant component of this transaction and that an 12% interest rate is applicable. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.) How much sales revenue would Wooten recognize on January 1, 2021
Answer: $9,017.89
Explanation:
Wooten will recognize the present value of $10,100 as it is to be paid to them in a year and the company sees time value of money as a significant component.
= 10,100 * Present value interest factor, 12%, 1 period
= 10,100 * 0.89286
= $9,017.886
= $9,017.89
Margerit is reviewing a project with projected sales of 1,500 units a year, a cashflow of $40 a unit and a three-year project life. The initial cost of the project is$95,000. The relevant discount rate is 15%. Margerit has the option to abandonthe project after one year at which time she feels she could sell the project for$60,000. At what level of sales should she be willing to abandon the project
Answer: 923 units
Explanation:
Margerit should abandon the project in a year if the cashflow associated with the project brings in a present value of less than or equal to $60,000 in a year.
The present value in year one should be set at $60,000.
The cashflow for the two years at a present value of $60,000 would be:
60,000 = Amount * Present value interest factor of an annuity, 2 periods, 15%
60,000 = Amount * 1.6257
Amount = 60,000 / 1.6257
= $36,907
The above is the amount received per sales that she should abandon the project at.
In units this is:
= 36,907 / 40 per unit
= 923 units
Exotic Engine Shop uses a job order cost system to determine the cost of performing engine repair work. Estimated costs and expenses for the coming period are as follows: Engine parts $380,000 Shop direct labor 1,872,000 Shop and repair equipment depreciation 62,500 Shop supervisor salaries 240,000 Shop property taxes 36,940 Shop supplies 10,000 Advertising expense 28,000 Administrative office salaries 150,000 Administrative office depreciation expense 8,000 Total costs and expenses $2,787,440 The average shop direct labor rate is $37.50 per hour. Determine the predetermined shop overhead rate per direct labor hour. $fill in the blank 1 per direct labor hour
Answer:
$7 per direct labor hour
Explanation:
Given the above information ,
Overhead cost = Shop and repair equipment and depreciation + Shop supervisor salaries + shop property taxes + shop supplies
Overhead cost = $62,500 + $240,000 + $36,940 + $10,000 = $349,440
Number of direct labor hours = 1,872,000/$37.5 = 49,920
Predetermined overhead rate = Overhead cost/Direct labor hours
Predetermined overhead rate
= $349,440/49,920
= $7 per direct labor hour

Crystal lives in the fictional country of Cuse, which raises government revenue by taxing everyone the same amount. The government of Cuse has just implemented a tax cut that reduces annual taxes by $2,500 per person. However, government spending has not changed, nor is it likely change in the future. The tax cut has raised Crystal's income by $2,500. If Crystal acts according to the prediction of new classical economics (and doesn't plan to leave Cuse), her consumption is likely to increase by_______ .
Suppose that instead of cutting taxes while keeping its spending the same, the government did the oppo it increased its spending by $2,500 per person while keeping taxes the same. If everyone in Cuse acted like Crystal, the likely increase in aggregate demand would be_______ per person.
Answer: $0; $0
Explanation:
New classical economists believe that any fiscal policy that the government embarks on is ineffective on the goods demanded by people.
If the government reduces taxes, Crystal (according to the New classical) will believe that the government will raise taxes in future to make up for the shortfall so she will send the $2,500 to savings so she can be able to pay off the future taxes.
If the government increases spending, Crystal will believe that this will be financed by future tax increases so she will still save the money to pay off future taxes.

Given the above scenario, which management theory is dominantly in operation?
Theory X
Theory Y
Answer:
The dominant management theory in this case is:
Theory Y.
Explanation:
Theory X: This theory presents a process-driven work situation, whereby workers follow rules that they did not contribute in making. There is a lack of individual initiative and motivation because the assumption is that the workers dislike their work and must be coerced, directed, and controlled in order to achieve organizational goals.
Theory Y: With this theory, workers are treated as the most valuable assets of the company. Employees are self-motivated and generally, there is a high sense of value placed on human esteem and self-actualization by the workers and managers. The workers do not dislike their work, and they work to achieve goal congruence between organizational and individual goals.
Use the following information to answer the next question. Total Asset = $40 million Depreciation = $1.0 million. Basic earning power (BEP) ratio is 20% Lease payments = 0.6 million Times-interest-earned (TIE) ratio is 6.55 Principal payments = 4 million What is the company's EBIT? The company's interest expense? Select one: a. $8.0 million; $1.22 million b. $7.5 million; $0.75 million c. $8.0 million; $0.62 million d. $1.35 million; $0.37 million e. $3.33 million; $0.83 million
Answer:
a. $8.0 million; $1.22 million
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
As we know that
Basic earnings power = EBIT ÷ total assets
So,
EBIT = Basic earnings power × total assets
= 0.20 × 40 million
= $8 million
Now
Times interest earned = EBIT ÷ interest expense
So,
Interest expense = EBIT ÷ Times interest earned
= $8 million ÷ 6.55
= $1.22 million

Suppose two workers could be hired, F and G, and they take the same time to complete tasks as the current five workers. F and G can be assigned to work on the same pair of tasks as one of the current workers. For example, F could be assigned tasks T1 and T2 (just like worker A) while G is assigned T5 and T6 (just like worker C). They cannot be assigned tasks that are currently assigned to two workers. For example, F cannot be assigned to tasks T2 and T3 (because they are currently being done by workers A and B). What is the capacity of this process with workers F and G included ( toothbrushes per minute)?
Answer:
Explanation:
The missing table is attached below.
Recall that:
The capacity of the interaction is controlled by the capacity of the bottleneck workers.
The extra resources accessible ought to be added to workers with the most noteworthy preparing times.
For this situation, they are Worker A and Worker E.
Summing up of resources halves the handling times for Worker A and E.
SO;
Worker Old time(sec) New time (sec) Capacity
A 65 32.5 1.85
B 35 35 1.71
C 25 25 2.40
D 30 30 2.00
E 60 30 2.00
Along these lines, the new capacity of the framework is characterized by new bottleneck B.
So the capacity of the cycle is 60/35 = 1.71 toothbrush per each minute

Manufacturing uses normal costing for its job-costing system, which has two direct-cost categories (direct materials and direct manufacturing labor) and one indirect-cost category (manufacturing overhead). The following information is obtained for:_____.
• Total manufacturing costs, $8,450,000 • Manufacturing overhead allocated, $3,750,000 (allocated at a rate of 250% of direct manufacturing labor costs) • Work-in-process inventory on January 1, 2017, $390,000 • Cost of finished goods manufactured, $8,020,000
Requirements:
1. Use information in the first two bullet points to calculate (a) direct manufacturing labor costs in and (b) cost of direct materials used in .
2. Calculate the ending work-in-process inventory on December 31, 2011.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Total manufacturing costs, $8,450,000
Manufacturing overhead allocated, $3,750,000 (allocated at a rate of 250% of direct manufacturing labor costs)
Work-in-process inventory on January 1, 2017, $390,000
Cost of finished goods manufactured, $8,020,000
First, we need to calculate the direct material and direct labor:
Direct labor= Manufacturing overhead allocated/2.5
Direct labor= 3,375,000 / 2.5
Direct labor= $1,350,000
Total manufacturing costs= Direct material + direct labor + allocated overhead
8,450,000= Direct material + 1,350,000 + 3,375,000
Direct material= $3,725,000
Finally, the ending work-in-process:
cost of goods manufactured= beginning WIP + direct materials + direct labor + allocated manufacturing overhead - Ending WIP
8,020,000= 390,000 + 8,450,000 - Ending WIP
Ending WIP= $820,000
A small business company is considering updating the current production line. There are two plans. For plan A, the fixed cost will be $40,000 and the variable cost will be $27 per unit after the update. For plan B, the fixed costs will be $54,000 and the variable cost will be $26 per unit after the update. Please answer the following questions: (a) Suppose the selling price is $35, what is the break-even volume for each plan
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Plan A:
Fixed costs= $40,000
Unitary varaible cost= $27
Plan B:
Fixed costs= $54,000
Unitary varaible cost= $26
Selling price per unit= $35
To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Plan A:
Break-even point in units= 40,000 / (35 - 27)
Break-even point in units= 5,000
Plan B:
Break-even point in units= 54,000 / (35 - 26)
Break-even point in units= 6,000

A large country can gain from imposing a tariff on the import of a good if: Group of answer choices the part of the tariff paid by the foreign exporters is greater than the losses arising from the production and consumption effects of the tariff in the domestic market the tariff is high enough that the country becomes an exporter of the product. the tariff drives the quantity imported to zero. the tariff revenue collected by the domestic government is less than the losses caused by the production and consumption effects of the tariff.
Answer:
part of the tariff paid by the foreign exporters is greater than the losses arising from the production and consumption effects of the tariff in the domestic market
Explanation:
Tariff is a form of tax levied on imported goods. Tariffs increases the price of import. This would discourage foreign exporters because there would be less demand for their good.
Tariffs would reduce the consumption of foreign goods and this would lead to negative welfare effect on consumers. This negative welfare effect can be mitigated if the tariff paid is greater than the welfare losses
You are planning to save for retirement over the next 30 years. To do this, you will invest $850 per month in a stock account and $350 per month in a bond account. The return of the stock account is expected to be 10% compounded monthly, and the bond account will pay 6% compounded monthly. When you retire, you will combine your money into an account with a return of 5% compounded monthly. How much can you withdraw each month from your account assuming a 25-year withdrawal period?
Answer:
$13,287.70
Explanation:
first we must calculate the future value:
future value of stock account = $850 x [(1 + 0.1/12)³⁶⁰ - 1 ] / (0.1/12) = $1,921,415
future value of bond account = $350 x [(1 + 0.06/12)³⁶⁰ - 1 ] / (0.06/12) = $351,580
total future value = $2,272,995
monthly withdrawal = value of account / PVIFA
PVIFA, 300 periods, 0.4167% = [1 - 1/(1 + 0.05/12)³⁰⁰] / (0.05/12) = 171.06
monthly withdrawal = $2,272,995 / 171.06 = $13,287.70

Explanation:
1. Calculation to Construct a cost-volume-profit chart , indicating the break-even sales for last year.
First step is to calculate the Contribution margin using this formula
Contribution margin = unit selling price - variable costper unit
Let plug in the formula
Contribution margin =250-175
Contribution margin = 75
Second step is to calculate the Contribution margin Ratio using this formula
Contribution margin Ratio = Contribution margin /unit selling price
Let plug in the formula
Contribution margin Ratio = 75/250
Contribution margin Ratio = 30%
Now let calculate the Break-even sales (dollars) using this formula
Break-even sales (dollars) = fixed costs /Contribution margin Ratio
Let plug in the formula
Break-even sales (dollars) = 75,000/30%
Break-even sales (dollars) = $250,000
Therefore Break-even sales (dollars) is $250,000
Calculation for Break-even sales (units) using this formula
Break-even sales (units) = fixed costs /Contribution margin
Let plug in the formula
Break-even sales (units) = 75,000/75

Maximum income from operations = Contribution margin*No of Maximum Unit can be sold - Fixed cost
Let plug in the formula
Maximum income from operations = 75*2500 -108,750
Maximum income from operations = $ 78,750
Therefore Maximum income from operations is $ 78,750
The break-even sales are the point where the total revenue is equal to total costs. The break-even sales for the current period after the calculation is $$362,500.
What do you mean by Break-even sales?Break-even sales are the amount of revenue in which the business gains zero profit. This sale price includes exactly the core fixed costs of the business, as well as all the variable costs associated with the sale.
As per the information available:
1. We will construct a cost-volume-profit chart, indicating the break-even sales for last year. The first step is to calculate the Contribution margin using this formula:
[tex]\rm\,Contribution \;margin = Unit \;Selling \; Price - Variable \; Cost \;Per \;Unit[/tex]
[tex]\rm\,Contribution\; Margin =250-175\\\\Contribution \;margin = \$75[/tex]
Next, we have to calculate the contribution margin ratio:
[tex]\rm\,Contribution \; Margin \; Ratio = \dfrac{Contribution \;Margin \;}{Unit \;Selling \;Price}\\\\[/tex]
[tex]\rm\,Contribution \;Margin\; Ratio = \dfrac{75}{250}\\\\Contribution \;Margin\; Ratio = 30\%[/tex]
Calculation of the Break-even sales (dollars) using this formula:
[tex]\rm\,Break- \;Even \;Sales \;(dollars) = \dfrac{\; Fixed \;Costs }{Contribution \;Margin \; Ratio \;}[/tex]
[tex]\rm\,Break- \;even \;sales (dollars) = \dfrac{75,000}{30\%}\\\\Break- \;even \; sales \; (dollars) = \$250,000[/tex]
Thus Break-even sales are $250,000
The calculation for Break-even sales (units) using this formula:
[tex]\rm\,Break-\,even \,sales \,(units) =\dfrac{ Fixed\, Costs}{Contribution\, margin}[/tex]
[tex]\rm\,Break-even \;Sales (units) = \dfrac{75,000}{75}\\\\Break \;-even \;Sales \;(units) = 1000[/tex]
Similarly, we can apply the same formula of the above calculation for number 3. that is to calculate the break-even sales for the current year which is equal to Break-even sales (dollars) is $362,500 and Break-even sales (units) is 1450.
2. Calculation to determine the income from operations for last year Using the cost-volume-profit chart prepared in part (1):
The number of units sold will be equal to sale divided by selling price per unit:
[tex]\dfrac{\$500,000}{\$250} = 2,000\rm\,Units[/tex]
[tex]\rm\,Income \;from\; operations\; for \;last \;year = Contribution\; margin\times No \;of \;Unit\; sold - \;Fixed\; cost[/tex]
[tex]\rm\,Income \;from\; operations \;for \;last \;year = 75\times2000 - 75000\\\\Income\; from \;operations \;for \;last \;year = \$75,000[/tex]
Similarly, By applying the same formula as above, Income from operations for the current period is equal to $112,500.
Hence, break-even sales for the last year and the current period are calculated where the break-even sales for the last year are equal to $250,000 and for the current period is equal to $362,500.

In 2020, Henry Jones works as a freelance driver, finding customers using various platforms like Uber and Grubhub. He is single and has no other sources of income. In 2020, Henry's qualified business income from driving is $61,200. Assume Henry takes the standard deduction of $12,400. Click here to access the 2020 individual tax rate schedule to use for this problem. Assume the QBI amount is net of the self-employment tax deduction. Compute Henry's QBI deduction and his tax liability for 2020.
Answer:
Henry's QBI deduction = $9,760
Henry's taxable income = $39,040
Henry's tax liability = $4,487.30
Explanation:
QBI deduction = (AGI - standard deduction) x 20% = ($61,200 - $12,400) x 20% = $9,760
total taxable income = $61,200 - $12,400 - $9,760 = $39,040
tax liability = $987.50 + [12% x ($39,040 - $9,875)] = $987.50 + $3,449.80 = $4,487.30

Suppose that you have the following information for an economy:______.
Marginal propensity to consume - MPC 0.80 Autonomous consumption - A $500 Planned investment - PI $600 Net exports - NX -$400 Government spending - G $300
You will need this information for the questions that follow.
Part 1. When real GDP is equal to $4,500, aggregate expenditure is equal to $ _____.
Part 2. When real GDP is equal to $5,000, aggregate expenditure is equal to $ _____.
Part 3. When real GDP is equal to $5,500, aggregate expenditure is equal to $ _____.
Answer:
Part 1. When real GDP is equal to $4,500, aggregate expenditure is equal to $4,600.
Part 2. When real GDP is equal to $5,000, aggregate expenditure is equal to $5,000.
Part 3. When real GDP is equal to $5,500, aggregate expenditure is equal to $5,400.
Explanation:
The aggregate expenditure (AE) can be calculated using the following formula:
AE = (A + (MPC * Y)) + PI + G + NX ………………. (1)
Where;
AE = aggregate expenditure = ?
A = Autonomous consumption = $500
MPC = Marginal propensity to consume = 0.80
Y = Real GDP
PI = Planned investment = $600
G = Government spending = $300
NX = Net exports = -$400
Based on the above, we can now proceed as follows:
Part 1. When real GDP is equal to $4,500, aggregate expenditure is equal to $ _____.
This implies that:
Y = Real GDP = $4,500
Substituting this and other values given above into equation (1), we have:
AE = ($500 + (0.80 * $4,500)) + $600 + $300 - $400 = $4,600
Therefore, when real GDP is equal to $4,500, aggregate expenditure is equal to $4,600.
Part 2. When real GDP is equal to $5,000, aggregate expenditure is equal to $ _____.
This implies that:
Y = Real GDP = $5,000
Substituting this and other values given above into equation (1), we have:
AE = ($500 + (0.80 * $5,000)) + $600 + $300 - $400 = $5,000
Therefore, when real GDP is equal to $5,000, aggregate expenditure is equal to $5,000.
Part 3. When real GDP is equal to $5,500, aggregate expenditure is equal to $ _____.
This implies that:
Y = Real GDP = $5,500
Substituting this and other values given above into equation (1), we have:
AE = ($500 + (0.80 * $5,500)) + $600 + $300 - $400 = $5,400
Therefore, when real GDP is equal to $5,500, aggregate expenditure is equal to $5,400.
The Armer Company is accumulating data to be use in preparing its annual profit plan for the coming year. The cost behavior pattern of the maintenance costs must be determined. The accounting staff has suggested the use of linear regression to derive an equation for maintenance hours and costs. Data regarding the maintenance hours and costs for the last year and the results of the regression analysis follow: Month Maintenance Cost Machine Hours Jan. $ 4,200 480 Feb. 3,000 320 Mar. 3,600 400 Apr. 2,820 300 May 4,350 500 June 2,960 310 July 3,030 320 Aug. 4,470 520 Sept. 4,260 490 Oct. 4,050 470 Nov. 3,300 350 Dec. 3,160 340 Sum $ 43,200 4,800 Average $ 3,600 $ 400 Average cost per hour $ 9.00 a (intercept) $ 684.65 b (coefficient) 7.2884 Standard error of the estimate 34.469 R-squared 0.99724 t-value for b 60.105
Based on the data derived from the regression analysis, 420 maintenance hours in a month mean that maintenance costs should be budgeted to the nearest dollar at:________.
Answer:
Based on the data derived from the regression analysis, 420 maintenance hours in a month mean that maintenance costs should be budgeted to the nearest dollar at: $3,746.
Explanation:
From the regression results given in the question, we can obtain the following:
a. Intercept = $684.65
b. Coefficient = $7.2884
Based on the above, the estimated regression equation can be provided as follows:
Maintenance costs = $684.65 + ($7.2884 * Maintenance hours) ............. (1)
Since we are given 420 maintenance hours in a month, we therefore substitute "Maintenance hours = 420" into equation (1) to obtain the maintenance costs that should be budgeted as follows:
Maintenance costs = $684.65 + ($7.2884 * 420) = $684.65 + $3,061.128 = $3,745.778
Rounding to the nearest dollars, we have:
Maintenance costs = $3,746
Therefore, based on the data derived from the regression analysis, 420 maintenance hours in a month mean that maintenance costs should be budgeted to the nearest dollar at: $3,746.
Corbel Corporation has two divisions: Division A and Division B. Last month, the company reported a contribution margin of $42,100 for Division A. Division B had a contribution margin ratio of 35% and its sales were $220,000. Net operating income for the company was $34,200 and traceable fixed expenses were $50,100. Corbel Corporation's common fixed expenses were:
Answer:
Common fixed costs= $34,800
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the contribution margin for Division B:
Contribution margin Division B= slaes*contribution margin ratio
Contribution margin Division B= 220,000*0.35
Contribution margin Division B= $77,000
Now, the segmented margin for both Divisions:
Segmented margin= (42,100 + 77,000) - 50,100
Segmented margin= $69,000
Finally, the common fixed costs:
Common fixed costs= segmented margin - net income
Common fixed costs= 69,000 - 34,200
Common fixed costs= $34,800
