Dh per yoar for cach. They expect their operating and maintenance expenses will increase by 15,000 Dh for every new student. Finally, they would set the tuition fees at MacBook Pro

Explanation / Answer

Ans. As New York is considering setting one year master’s program in mechanical engineering.

They hire 3 new teachers, with salaries $ 4,00,000 per year each.

Total salary of these 3 teachers = $ 12,00,000/year.

Maintenance and operational expense will increase by $ 15000 for each new student admitted.

Tution fees per students is = $ 50,000.

So the break even conditions will be when

New York will admit 35 students for their program.

Tution fees from 35 students = 35*50000 = $ 17,50,000.

Total cost from 35 students = 35*15000 = $ 5,25,000

Total cost = $ 12 lac + $ 5.25 lac = $ 17.25 lac.

Revenues = 17.5 lac dollar.

So, the minimum number required for breakeven is 35.
