Answer to Question 1

Answer: D
Explanation: Plugging in the variables for the equation BE = TFC/(P - VC), you get BE = 50,000/(5 - 3), or 25,000 for BE. This means that the company must make 25,000 units of the product to begin making a profit.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: C
Explanation: A current ratio that is significantly less than 1.0 means that the company has too many liabilities relative to its assets. With this kind of liquidity problem, the company may experience difficulty in having enough cash to pay off its short-term obligationsthings such as taxes, accounts payable, and salaries.
