Explanation:
Note, the term diminishing marginal utility refers to an economic principle that states that the more unit of a particular commodity or service we consume, the more the satisfaction (utility) derived out of the consumption reduces or diminishes.
For instance, if I watched movies produced by a particular entertainment company for several days (eg Disney Studios), I may become dissatisfied using this particular entertainment provider and may decide to try another service (Netflix).
Another instance could occur after exercising, I'm given 3 bottles of coke, after taking my first bottle, the amount of utility I derive would reduce until I get to the third bottle, at this point I've reached my peak.
The law of diminishing marginal utility failed for someone I know who had used the same type of toothpaste and brushed her teeth at least once a day for a period of over 10 years.

Bill and Ted are deciding what musical instruments they want to learn pick between the guitar, keyboard, and the drums to play for their band. They can They both want to have a good band, but also each has a preference over what to play. Both like the guitar over all else. However, Bill likes the keyboard more than the drums and Ted likes the drums more than the keyboard. What is crucial is that each chooses a different instrument, otherwise the band is pretty terrible. The actual combination does not affect the quality of the band. One night, Bill and Ted simultaneously reveal to each other what instrument they have bought and learned to play. Since they bought AND learned to play the instru- are committed to it! Given the information above, answer the following: ment they

5. Can there exist a Nash Equlibrium in which Bill picks the guitar and Ted picks the drums? Explain
Answer and Explanation:
1. There is no dominant strategy as each person has to respond with a different strategy like using a different instrument depending on the instrument chosen by the other to achieve best payoff
2. If Bill picks keyboard then it would be best for Ted to pick guitar as this is his preferred instrument which would bring best payoff
3. If Ted picks guitar, then bull should pick keyboard which he prefers and would be the best payoff
4. A nash equilibrium would not exist here since Ted should choose guitar if bull chooses drums and bill should choose guitar if Ted chooses keyboard
5. A Nash equilibrium can exist here since Ted should choose drums when bill chooses guitar.
How has the introduction of these markets, technologies and resources affected the lifestyle of the people of Cuba
Answer:
he economy of Cuba is a largely planned economy dominated by state-run enterprises. The government of Cuba owns and operates most industries and most of the labor force is employed by the state. Following the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991, the ruling Communist Party of Cuba encouraged the formation of worker co-operatives and self-employment. However, greater private property and free market rights were granted by the 2019 Constitution.[10][11] It has also been acknowledged that foreign market investment in various Cuban economic sectors increased before 2019 as well.[12][13]
As of 2000, public-sector employment was 76% and private-sector employment (mainly composed of self-employment) was 23% - compared to the 1981 ratio of 91% to 8%.[14] Investment is restricted and requires approval by the government. The government sets most prices and rations goods to citizens. In 2016 Cuba ranked 68th out of 182 countries, with a Human Development Index of 0.775, much higher than its GDP per capita rank (95th).[15]As of 2012, the country's public debt comprised 35.3% of GDP, inflation (CDP) was 5.5%, and GDP growth was 3%.[16]
Housing and transportation costs are low. Cubans receive government-subsidized education, healthcare and food subsidies.[17]
The country achieved a more even distribution of income after the Cuban Revolution of 1953–1959,[citation needed] which was followed by an economic embargo by the United States (1960- ). During the Cold War period, the Cuban economy was heavily dependent on subsidies from the Soviet Union, valued at $65 billion in total from 1960 to 1990 (over three times as the entirety of U.S. economic aid to Latin America), an average of $2.17 billion a year.[18] This accounted for anywhere between 10% and 40% of Cuban GDP, depending on the year.[19] While the massive Soviet subsidies did enable Cuba's enormous state budget, they did not lead to a more advanced or sustainable Cuban economy; although described by economists as "a relatively highly developed Latin American export economy" in 1959 and the early 1960s, Cuba's basic economic structure changed very little between then and 1990. Tobacco products such as cigars and cigarettes were the only manufactured products among Cuba's leading exports, and even these were produced by a preindustrial process. The Cuban economy remained inefficient and over-specialized in a few highly subsidized commodities provided by the Soviet bloc countries.[20] Following the collapse of the Soviet Union, Cuba's GDP declined by 33% between 1990 and 1993, partially due to the loss of Soviet subsidies[21] and a crash in sugar prices in the early 1990s. It rebounded in the early 2000s due to a combination of marginal liberalization of the economy and heavy subsidies from the friendly government of Venezuela, which provided Cuba with low-cost oil and other subsidies worth up to 12% of Cuban GDP annually.[22] Cuba retains high levels of healthcare and education.[23]

Warrix Corporation has provided the following contribution format income statement. Assume that the following information is within the relevant range.
Sales (3,000 units) $120,000
Variable expenses 90,000
Contribution margin 30,000
Fixed expenses 27,000
Net operating income $3,000
a. If sales increase to 3,100 units, net operating income would be closest to: ____________
b. If sales increase to 3,100 units, the breakeven point in units would:_____________
c. If sales increase to 3,100 units, the degree of operating leverage would:___________
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Sales (3,000 units) $120,000
Variable expenses 90,000
Contribution margin 30,000
Fixed expenses 27,000
Net operating income $3,000
First, we need to calculate the unitary contribution margin:
Unitary contribution margin= 30,000/3,000= $10
a) Sales= 3,100
Contribution margin= 3,100*10= 31,000
Fixed expense= (27,000)
Net operating income= 4,000
b) 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
Break-even point in units= 27,000/10
Break-even point in units= 2,700
c) Finally, the degree of operating leverage:
Degree of operating leverage= % change in income/ % change in sales
Degree of operating leverage= [(4,000-3,000)/3,000] / [(3,100-3,000) / 3,000]
Degree of operating leverage= 10

Explanation:
Pyramid Products Company has a revolving credit agreement with its bank. The company can borrow up to $1 million under the agreement at an annual interest rate of 9 percent. Pyramid is required to maintain a 10 percent compensating balance on any funds borrowed under the agreement and to pay a 0.5 percent commitment fee on the unused portion of the credit line. Assume that Pyramid has no funds in the account at the bank that can be used to meet the compensating balance requirement. Determine the annual financing cost of borrowing each of the following amounts under the credit agreement:
a. $250,000
b. $500,000
c. $1,000,000
Answer:
a. $250,000
if you borrow $250,000, you will only get $225,000, but you will still have to pay interest for the whole amount, so total interest charge = $250,000 x 9% = $22,500. Additionally, you must pay $750,000 x 0.5% for the unused portion = $3,750.
total interests charged = $26,250 / $250,000 = 10.5%
b. $500,000
if you borrow $500,000, you will only get $450,000, but you will still have to pay interest for the whole amount, so total interest charge = $500,000 x 9% = $45,000. Additionally, you must pay $500,000 x 0.5% for the unused portion = $2,500.
total interests charged = $47,500 / $450,000 = 10.56%
c. $1,000,000
since you need to have at least 10% in the bank, if you borrow $1,000,000, you will only get $900,000. So you cannot actually borrow $1 million, your net borrowing = $900,000. But you will still have to pay interest for the whole amount, so total interest charge = $1,000,000 x 9% = $90,000.
total interests charged = $90,000 / $900,000 = 10%

The fact that generally accepted accounting principles allow companies flexibility in choosing between certain allocation methods can make it difficult for a financial analyst to compare periodic performance from firm to firm. Suppose you were a financial analyst trying to compare the performance of two companies. Company A uses the double-declining-balance depreciation method. Company B uses the straight-line method. You have the following information taken from the 12/31/2021 year-end financial statements for Company B:
Income Statement
Depreciation expense $12,500
Balance Sheet
Assets:
Plant and equipment, at cost $125,000
Less: Accumulated depreciation (50,000)
Net $75,000
You also determine that all of the assets constituting the plant and equipment of Company B were acquired at the same time, and that all of the $125,000 represents depreciable assets. Also, all of the depreciable assets have the same useful life and residual values are zero.
Required:
a. In order to compare performance with Company A, estimate what B's depreciation expense would have been for 2021?
b. If Company B decided to switch depreciation methods in 2021 from the straight line to the double-declining-balance method, prepare the 2021 journal entry to record depreciation for the year
Answer:
a. Company B's depreciation expense for 2021 is $12,800
b. Accumulated Depreciation (Dr.) $23,800
Plant and equipment (Cr.) $23,800
Explanation:
The depreciation expense of 2021 will be $12,800. The cost of plant and equipment is $125,000.
Depreciation 2018 : $125,000 * 10% = 12,500 * 2 = $25,000
2019 : $125,000 - $25000 = $100,000 * 10% * 2 = $20,000
2020: $100,000 - $20,000 = $80,000 * 10% * 2 = $16,000
2021 : $80,000 - $16,000 = 64,000 * 10% * 2 = $12,800
Due to use, wear and tear, or obsolescence, the monetary worth of an object decreases with time. Depreciation is the term used to describe this reduction.
A.Company B's depreciation expense for 2021 is $12,800
B. Accumulated Depreciation (Dr.) $23,800
Plant and equipment (Cr.) $23,800
Solution:-
The depreciation expense of 2021 will be $12,800. The cost of plant and equipment is $125,000.
Depreciation 2018 : $125,000 * 10% = 12,500 * 2 = $25,000
2019 : $125,000 - $25000 = $100,000 * 10% * 2 = $20,000
2020: $100,000 - $20,000 = $80,000 * 10% * 2 = $16,000
2021 : $80,000 - $16,000 = 64,000 * 10% * 2 = $12,800

You want to buy a house that costs $140,000. You have $14,000 for a down payment, but your credit is such that mortgage companies will not lend you the required $126,000. However, the realtor persuades the seller to take a $126,000 mortgage (called a seller take-back mortgage) at a rate of 5%, provided the loan is paid off in full in 3 years. You expect to inherit $140,000 in 3 years, but right now all you have is $14,000, and you can afford to make payments of no more than $22,000 per year given your salary. (The loan would call for monthly payments, but assume end-of-year annual payments to simplify things.)
Required:
a. If the loan was amortized over 3 years, how large would each annual payment be? Could you afford those payments?
b. If the loan was amortized over 30 years, what would each payment be? Could you afford those payments?
c. To satisfy the seller, the 30-year mortgage loan would be written as a balloon note, which means that at the end of the third year, you would have to make the regular payment plus the remaining balance on the loan. What would the loan balance be at the end of Year 3, and what would the balloon payment be?
Answer:
Kindly check explanation
Explanation:
Given the following :
Cost of house = $140,000
Down payment = $14000
Take back mortgage = 126000 = PV
Rate (r) = 5%
Yearly payment one can afford = 22000
a. If the loan was amortized over 3 years, how large would each annual payment be? Could you afford those payments?
Number of period = 3
Using the relation:
PMT = r(PV) / 1 - (1 + r)^-n
PMT = 0.05(126000) / 1 - 1.05^-3
PMT = 6300 / (1-0.8638375)
PMT = 46,268.23
He won't be able to afford it, as the monthly payment is larger than the affordable amount of $22000
b. If the loan was amortized over 30 years, what would each payment be? Could you afford those payments?
PMT = r(PV) / 1 - (1 + r)^-n
PMT = 0.05(126000) / 1 - 1.05^-30
PMT = 6300 / (1-0.2313774)
PMT = 8196.48
He would be able to afford it, as the monthly payment is lower than the affordable amount of $22000
c. To satisfy the seller, the 30-year mortgage loan would be written as a balloon note, which means that at the end of the third year, you would have to make the regular payment plus the remaining balance on the loan. What would the loan balance be at the end of Year 3, and what would the balloon payment be?
Present value of remaining balance after the 3rd year:
Present Value (PV) = PMT[(1 - (1 + r)^-n) / r]
Where
PMT = periodic payment = 8196.48
r = Interest rate = 5% = 0.05
n = number of periods = 30 - 3 = 27
PV = 8196.48[(1 - (1 + 0.05)^-27) / 0.05]
PV = 8196.48[(1 - (1. 05)^-27) / 0.05]
PV = 8196.48[0.7321516 / 0.05]
PV = 120,021.32
Balloon payment :
120,021.32 + 8196.48 = 128,217.80
a. The annual payment if the Mortgage was amortized over three years is $45,315.96 (Interest + Principal)
The Mortgage payments are not affordable because his affordability funds are limited to $22,000 annually.

c. Payments made by the end of the third year were $5,867.07 with a balance of $120,132.93.
Data and Calculations:
Cost of house = $140,000
Down payment = $14,000
Mortgage value = $126,000($140,000 - $14,000)
Mortgage interest rate = 5%
Affordable annual payments = $22,000
Thus, the balloon payment is always based on an agreed percentage of the loan, which is not provided here.

Find the future value of an annuity with monthly deposits of $150, made over a period of 10 years, with 5% interest compounded monthly g
Answer:
Explanation:
Future value of an annuity FVA = ?
annuity = 150 .
period = 10 years
= 10 x 12 = 120 months
rate of interest 5%
monthly interest = 5 / 12 = .41667
FVA = 150 [ ( 1.0041667)¹²⁰] / .0041667
X = 150 [ ( 1.0041667)¹²⁰] / .0041667
2.778 x 10⁻⁵ X = ( 1.0041667)¹²⁰
- 5 + log 2.778 + log X = 120 log 1.0041667
- 4.55627 + log X = .2167
log X = 4.77297
X = $59288.43 .

Target (TGT) recently earned a profit of $4.15 per share and has a P/E ratio of 23.19. Earnings have been growing at 11.5 percent per year over the past few years. If this growth continues, what would the stock price be in five years if the P/E ratio remains unchanged
Answer:
$165.85
Explanation:
Calculation for what would the stock price be in five years
First step is to calculate the EPS in 5 years
Using this formula
EPS in 5 years=EPS 0 (1+ Growth rate)^n
Let plug in the formula
EPS in 5 years=4.15*(1+11.5%)^5
EPS in 5 years=$7.1519
Now let calculate for the stock price in 5 years
Using this formula
Stock price in 5 years=P/E ratio*EPS in 5 years
Let plug in the formula
Stock price in 5 years=23.19*$7.1519
Stock price in 5 years=$165.85
Therefore what would the stock price be in five years is $165.85
A company issued 130 shares of $100 par value common stock for $15,400 cash. The total amount of paid-in capital in excess of par is:
Answer:
$2,400
Explanation:
For par stated shares, any amount paid in excess of the par value is called paid-in capital in excess of par and is included in shareholders equity reserves.
So, from the total price remove the par value price of 130 shares to determine the paid-in capital in excess of par.
Paid-in capital in excess of par = Total Paid - Price at Par
= $15,400 - (130 shares × $100)
= $2,400
You purchased a bond at a price of $13,100. In 15 years when the bond matures, the bond will be worth $30,000. It is exactly 7 years after you purchased the bond and you can sell the bond today for $21,300. If you hold the bond until it matures, what annual rate of return will you earn from today
Answer:
The annual rate of return is 2.10%
Explanation:
The computation of the annual rate of return is shown below:
Let us assume the annual rate of return be K
K is
= {Worth of the bond - selling price of the bond today)^(1 ÷ remaining time period) - 1
= [$30,000 ÷ $21,300]^(1 ÷ 8) - 1
= 2.10%
Hence, the annual rate of return is 2.10%
The same is to be considered
DelRay Foods must purchase a new gumdrop machine. Two machines are available. Machine 7745 has a first cost of $8,000, an estimated life of 10 years, a salvage value of $1,000, and annual operating costs estimated at $0.01 per 1,000 gumdrops. Machine A37Y has a first cost of $8,000, a life of 10 years, and no salvage value. Its annual operating costs will be $260 regardless of the number of gumdrops produced. MARR is 6%/year, and 30 million gumdrops ware produced each year.
Based on an internal rate of return analysis, which machine should be recommended?
Answer:
I would recommend Machine 7745
Explanation:
Machine 7745
initial outlay = $8,000
operational costs per year = $300
depreciation cost per year = $700
salvage value (at year 10) = $1,000
total costs per year (1 - 9) = $1,000
total costs year 10 = $0
using an excel spreadsheet, the IRR = 2%. Since you are analyzing costs only, not incremental revenue, then you must select the project with the lowest IRR.
Machine A37Y
initial outlay = $8,000
operational costs per year = $260
depreciation cost per year = $800
total costs per year (1 - 10) = $1,060
using an excel spreadsheet, the IRR = 4%
