the following formula is used in economics to find a company's net income N, where P is the sales price, V is the variable cost per unit, S is the sales volume, and F are fixed cost

Question

N=S times (p-v)-f
rearrange the formula to highlight the sales volume.
S=

Answer 1

To rearrange the formula \( N = S \times (P - V) - F \) to highlight the sales volume \( S \), you can follow these steps:

1. Add \( F \) to both sides of the equation: \[ N + F = S \times (P - V) \]

2. Divide both sides by \( (P - V) \) (assuming \( P \neq V \)): \[ S = \frac{N + F}{P - V} \]

So, the rearranged formula highlighting the sales volume \( S \) is: \[ S = \frac{N + F}{P - V} \]
