1.  $120,000/(1 -0.4) = $200,000.  $15 profit per unit.  This means
2000 units must be sold to cover the fix costs, and an additional
13,333 units must be sold to earn the after-tax profit.  Therefore,
the total number of units is A. 15,333.

2. C. Selling prices are unchanged.  "Chapter 3"

3.  $20,000/$8,000 = 2 .5 so the answer is A.

4.  True.  5.  Appears to be the same question.

6. B. Advertising is expensed, not capitalized.

7. D.  An unexpected variance should always be considered for
investigation, regardless of whether it is favorable or unfavorable.

8. D.  Current income, which would typically be a dividend.

9. D.  All of the above.

Sincerely,
