The model of competitive market relies on these three core assumptions:
1. There must be many buyers and sellers-a few players can't dominate the market.
2. Firms must produce an identical product--buyers must regard all seller's products as equivalent.
3. Firms and resources must be fully mobile, allowing for free entry into and ext from the industry.
The first two conditions imply that all consumers and firms are price takers. While the third is not necessarily for price-taking behavior, assume for this problem that a market cannon maintain competition in the long run without free entry.
Identify whether or not each of the following scenarios describes a competitive market, along with the correct explanation of why or why not.
a. Several stores in the mall sell hooded sweatshirts. Each store's sweatshirts reflect the style of that particular store. Additionally, some stores use higher-quality cotton than others, which is reflected in the apparel's prices.
b. In a small town, there are two providers of broadband internet access: a cable company and the phone company. The internet access offered by both providers is of the same speed.
c. There are hundreds of high schools students in need of algebra tutoring services in Dallas. Dozens of companies offer tutoring services, and the parents who seek out tutors view the quality of the tutoring at the different companies to be largely the same.
d. The government has granted a patent to a pharmaceutical company for an experimental AIDS drug. That company is the only firm permitted to sell the drug.
i. Yes, meets all assumptions.

Explanation:

A perfect competition is characterized by many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.  

In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit.  If in the short run firms are earning economic profit, in the long run firms would enter into the industry. This would drive economic profit to zero.  

Also, if in the short run, firms are earning economic loss, in the long run, firms would exit the industry until economic profit falls to zero.  

A monopolistic competition is when there are many firms selling differentiated products in an industry. A monopoly has characteristics of both a monopoly and a perfect competition. the demand curve is downward sloping. it sets the price for its goods and services.

An example of monopolistic competition are restaurants  

When firms are earning positive economic profit, in the long run, firms enter into the industry. This drives economic profit to zero

If firms are earning negative economic profit, in the long run, firms leave the industry.  This drives economic profit to zero

in the long run, only normal profit is earned

a. this is not a perfect competition because the sweatshirts are not homogenous. they differ in quality and style

b. this is not a perfect competition because there are not plenty firms. this is more of a duopoly

c. this is a perfect competition. there are many tutoring services with homogenous products

d. the company is a monopoly. there is no free entry into the industry as a result of the government permit

LJM Corporation includes two divisions, Shay Division and Patty Division. The Shay Division makes specialized filters, including one that could be used by the Patty Division. Costs for the filter are variable costs, $16; fixed costs, $20. Shay Division has capacity to make 20,000 of the filters, and it is operating at capacity. It sells the filters to other companies for $52 each. The Patty Division needs 8,000 filters per year, and it has been purchasing them from another company for $45 each. Required: 1) If a transfer were to occur between Shay Division and Patty Division, what is the maximum that Patty Division should be willing to pay for the filters? 2) If a transfer were to occur between Shay Division and Patty Division, what is the minimum price that Shay Division should be willing to accept?

Answers

Answer:

LJM Corporation

1. The Maximum price that Patty Division should be willing to pay for the filters is: $45.

2. Minimum price that Shay Division should be willing to accept is: $52.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                               Shay Division   Patty Division

Costs:

Variable costs              $16                      

Fixed costs                    20

Sales/purchase price    52                      $45

Capacity/requirement  20,000             8,000

Maximum price that Patty Division should be willing to pay for the filters is: $45.

Minimum price that Shay Division should be willing to accept is: $52.

b) The minimum transfer price should be determined based on the variable costs and the opportunity costs.  The opportunity cost for Shay Division is $36 ($52 - $16).  For Patty Division, the maximum price it should be willing to pay is the opportunity cost, which is the price Patty pays when it buys the filters from the market.

Forever Ready Company expects to operate at 85% of productive capacity during May. The total manufacturing costs for May for the production of 34,000 batteries are budgeted as follows:
Direct materials $330,600
Direct labor 121,600
Variable factory overhead 34,000
Fixed factory overhead 68,000
Total manufacturing costs $554,200
The company has an opportunity to submit a bid for 3,000 batteries to be delivered by May 31 to a government agency. If the contract is obtained, it is anticipated that the additional activity will not interfere with normal production during May or increase the selling or administrative expenses.
What is the unit cost below which Forever Ready Company should not go in bidding on the government contract? Round your answer to two decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

$14.3

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the unit cost which Forever Ready Company should not go in bidding on the government contract.

Direct materials $9.72

($330,600/34,000)

Direct labor $3.58

($121,600/34,000)

Variable factory overhead $1

($34,000/34,000)

Total per unit cost $14.3

($9.72 + $3.58 + $1)

Therefore, the unit cost which Forever Ready Company should not go in bidding on the government contracts is $14.3

2. (E) Cooking:$34,300 Churning: $39,200 Freezing:$24,500

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. For administrative cost allocated to each operating department is

Cooking

= $560,000 × 2,940 ÷ (2,940 + 4,900 + 1,960)

= $168,000

Churning

= $560,000 × 4,900 ÷ (2,940 + 4,900 + 1,960)

= $280,000

Freezing

= $560,000 × 1,960 ÷ (2,940 + 4,900 + 1,960)

= $112,000

b. For maintenance cost allocated to each operating department is

Cooking

= $98,000 × 33,250 ÷ (33,250 + 38,000 23750)

= $34,300

Churning

= $98,000 × 38,000 ÷ (33,250 + 38,000 23750)

= $39,200

And, for freezing

= $98,000 × 23,750 ÷ (33,250 + 38,000 23750)

= $24,500

Suppose Germany, a large country, imposes a tariff on tuna imports. Before the tariff, all the countries in the world are engaged in free trade in tuna. Explain why.
(1). The German consumers pay a higher price for tuna.
(2). The German producers receive a higher price for tuna.
(3). The world price of tuna increases.
(4). The tariff makes Vietnam, a tuna exporting country, worse off.
(5). Vietnamese tuna consumers suffer because of the tariff.

Answers

Answer:

1. This is true.

The Germans will pay a higher price for tuna because the tariff will increase the price of imported tuna and the reduction in completion with the local producers will lead to higher prices as the local producers take up their price.

2. This is true.

German producers no longer have to compete as much with imported tuna which was cheaper. They will therefore be able to raise their prices.

3. This statement is false.

The world price of Tuna DOES NOT increase because the tariff is only applicable in Germany. Other parts of the world will trade tuna as before. This is what is assumed.

4. This statement is true.

If Vietnam was exporting tuna to Germany, they will become worse off because they will see a decline in demand for their tuna on account of the tariffs making the tuna more expensive.

5. This is false.

Vietnamese tuna consumers will still pay the same price to get tuna because Vietnam produces the tuna. It is Vietnam's producers that will suffer not the consumers.

Karen, Kelsey, Rita, and Lizzi own a large commercial building as concurrent owners. They are tenants with the right to survivorship. Lizzi transfers her one-quarter interest in the building to a private charity organization owned by Stella. Which form of concurrent ownership would allow Karen, Kelsey, and Rita to become the owners of the property following Lizzi's death without the inclusion of the private charity organization run by Stella?
a) a tenancy in common
b) a tenancy by entirety
c) a joint tenancy
d) a community property

Answers

Answer:

Option C: A Joint tenancy

Explanation:

Joint Tenancy

This is simply a type of a concurrent estate. This is the process by which the cotenants have acquired four unities of title. That is the: the unity of Time, the unity of Title, the Unity of Interest and the Unity of Possession. The cotenants must received these unities from the same transferor(s) and each joint tenant is has equal right to the primary benefit of a joint tenancy such as the right of survivorship. It is the property that belongs to two or more people, even if married or unmarried.

This Joint tenancy deals with 2 or more tenants who owns the land altogether, in all. No tenant has more than the other.

The right of survivorship

It is stated that upon death of a joint tenant, the deceased's interest transfers straight to the surviving joint tenant or tenants-one less owner

Distribution centers offer value-added services such product mixing, order fulfilment, cross-docking, kitting, and packing in addition to the primary function of storing items in warehouses. Distribution centers, in contrast to warehouses, also only keep the necessary quantity of goods for a shorter amount of time.

Because they primarily support B2B enterprises as a conduit between suppliers and customers, distribution centers are more customer-centric. Distribution centers are in charge of effectively meeting customer demands and expectations; warehouses are in charge of safely keeping products.

Operations at distribution centers are therefore more complicated than those at warehouses. Distribution centers use state-of-the-art technology for order processing, inventory management, warehouse management, and transportation management.

Define concentration.

"The ability to direct your thinking in any direction you choose and to hold it for as long as you choose" is the definition of concentration.

Concentration is the capacity to narrow the field of awareness to one particular idea or subject while rejecting all other distractions.

One of the most crucial skills anybody should have is the capacity to concentrate. However, the majority of people find it difficult to focus. They frequently can't focus on one thing for a reasonable amount of time since their attention tends to wander.

This is a problem that can be solved. The capacity for concentration can be improved, just like any other talent. A person who practices mental discipline may concentrate without being interrupted by thoughts, sounds, or anything else.

While you might occasionally appear to be reading or concentrating on your work, if your attention is diverted you probably won't be able to retain the information for long enough to use it properly to produce something intelligible.

b. concept test
c. field exam
d. commercialize

Answers

Answer:

a. test market

Explanation:

The test market consists of a strategy used by organizations to assess how consumers will be receptive to a new product or service launched. In this step, companies select a group of consumers or a specific region with a profile aligned with the new product, to feel the reaction of the market, and then be able to distribute the product on a large scale. After defining the target audience of the test market, the companies monitor the promotion and distribution strategies, carrying out a kind of test to verify the errors and successes of the marketing campaign and the possibilities of the insertion of the new product in the mass market to be successful .

This is an advantageous strategy for companies, due to the lower cost associated with a large-scale launch, the monitoring of high risks, and the possibility of feeling the market, making corrections and checking the demand for the product.

a.
dependent
b.
independent

Answers

Answer:

independent. This is a fun question. I never thought about how I would explain it before.

Explanation:

Can you think of anything that might influence the second even card being drawn?

Let's make the question a whole lot easier. Suppose you have a coin and it's a fair one just coming from the mint. Suppose you toss it and you get either heads or tails. Can you think of a reason why you should get the same thing again or put another way, can you guess what you are going to get next?If you can't then the tosses are independent of each other. You haven't replaced anything, like once you get a tails, you weight the coin so you can never get tails again. That would be a dependent event.If you can guess consistently, you better submit a written paper to a math journal.

Now go back your your question. You replaced the card. The odds are the same as for the first toss. Is there anything that has changed your mind about being able to guess.

You can't guess, so the events are independent.

For each of the three independent situations below determine the amount of the annual lease payments. Each describes a finance lease in which annual lease payments are payable at the beginning of each year. Each lease agreement contains an option that permits the lessee to acquire the leased asset at an option price that is sufficiently lower than the expected fair value that the exercise of the option appears reasonably certain.

Situation 1 Situation 2 Situation 3
Lease term (years) 5 10 4
Lessor?s rate of return 10% 11% 9%
Fair value of leased asset $62,000 $421,000 $186,000

Determine the annual lease payments for each situation:

Answers

Answer:

a. The annual lease payment for Situation 1 is $12,774.47.

b. The annual lease payment for Situation 2 is $71,486.40.

c. The annual lease payment for Situation 3 is $57,412.37.

Explanation:

The annual lease payments can be calculated using the formula for calculating loan amortization as follows:

P = (A * (r * (1 + r)^n)) / (((1+r)^n) - 1) .................................... (1)

Where,

For Situation 1

P = Annual lease payments = ?

A = Fair value of leased asset = $62,000

r = interest rate = Lessor’s rate of return = 10%, or 0.01

n = Number of years of lease term = 5

Substituting all the figures into equation (1), we have:

P = ($62,000 * (0.01 * (1 + 0.01)^5)) / (((1+0.01)^5) - 1)

P = $12,774.47

Therefore, the annual lease payment for Situation 1 is $12,774.47.

For Situation 2

P = Annual lease payments = ?

A = Fair value of leased asset = $421,000

r = interest rate = Lessor’s rate of return = 11%, or 0.11

n = Number of years of lease term = 10

Substituting all the figures into equation (1), we have:

P = ($421,000 * (0.11 * (1 + 0.11)^10)) / (((1 + 0.11)^10) - 1)

P = $71,486.40

Therefore, the annual lease payment for Situation 2 is $71,486.40.

For Situation 3

P = Annual lease payments = ?

A = Fair value of leased asset = $186,000

r = interest rate = Lessor’s rate of return = 9%, or 0.09

n = Number of years of lease term = 4

Substituting all the figures into equation (1), we have:

P = ($186,000 * (0.09 * (1 + 0.09)^4)) / (((1 + 0.09)^4) - 1)

P = $57,412.37

Therefore, the annual lease payment for Situation 3 is $57,412.37.

Sales tax, because it is baught

A tax added to the cost of an item bought in a store is a sales tax. Thus, option D is correct.

What is a sales tax?

A sales tax is a fee that is paid to the government when specified goods and services are sold. Typically, laws permit the vendor to charge the customer the tax at the time of purchase.

Use taxes are typically used to describe taxes on goods and services that consumers pay directly to a governing authority. The sale and use tax is frequently exempted for some goods and services, including food, education, and medical. A sales tax is similar to a value-added tax (VAT) that is levied on products and services. Key distinctions can be found in the comparison with sales tax. The sale of this item is subject to a retail sales tax of 8.5%, which is shown on the cash register receipt.

D. always behave rationally because they are overly optimistic about their future behavior. E. do not always behave rationally because they take into account nonmonetary opportunity costs.

Answers

Answer:

A. do not always behave rationally because they ignore sunk costs.

Explanation:

Behavioral economics can be defined as a branch of economics that typically deals with the study of market transactions in which consumers of goods and services make choices or buying decisions that doesn't look economically rational.

According to behavioral​ economics, consumers do not always behave rationally because they ignore sunk costs i.e being overly optimistic about their behavior in the future while ignoring the fact that the money has been spent on purchase and cannot be recovered again.

Sunk cost can be defined as a cost or an amount of money that has been spent on something in the past and as such cannot be recovered. Thus, because a sunk cost has been incurred by an individual or organization it can't be recovered and as such it is irrelevant in the decision-making process such as investments, projects etc.

Basically, sunk costs are referred to as fixed costs.

V Boutique is a fashion house that designs, manufactures, and sells evening gowns. Their lowest-selling design is a vibrant green strapless gown in Dupioni silk. V Boutique is considering lowering the selling price of the gown to stimulate demand. However, before lowering the price, they must evaluate the total costs associated with the gown.
. Fabric and materials - $62/gown
. Labor to construct the gown - $40/gown
. Equipment cost for these gowns (steamer and sewing machines) $3,000
V Boutique anticipates selling 500 gowns after lowering the selling price. Assuming their projection is accurate, what is the total average cost they will incur per gown?

Answers

Answer:

V. Boutique

Assuming their projection of 500 gowns is accurate, the total average cost they will incur per gown is:

= $108.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Unit variable costs:

Fabric and materials per gown =                       $62

Labor cost  per gown to construct the gown = $40

Total unit variable costs  per gown =               $102

Unit fixed costs:

Equipment cost  = $3,000/500                           $6

Total average costs per gown =                      $108

Answers

Solution :

Risk management first involves the identification of the potential risk that may be involved. It should focus both on the objectives as well as events that could cause the consequences.

Some of the major risks that can be involved are :

• sudden weather conditions which may not support the flight travel.

• Embargo on fishing by the State or local authority suddenly

• any kind of physical injury to the members of the group

• there may be forest fire around the lake

• technical error that might occur during the course of adventures

The impact for the risk that includes the majuere risk will be very high for all the parameters that can increase the cost by 40%, it can also lead to increase in time by about 20% which can cancel the expedition. . These types of risk will not be covered under any scope.

For the physical risk, the impact will be moderate for the parameters.

Bonita Industries financed the purchase of a machine by making payments of $29000 at the end of each of five years. The appropriate rate of interest was 8%. The future value of one for five periods at 8% is 1.46933. The future value of an ordinary annuity for five periods at 8% is 5.86660. The present value of an ordinary annuity for five periods at 8% is 3.99271. What was the cost of the machine to Bonita?

Answers

Answer:

Cost of Machine today = $115788.59

Explanation:

To calculate the cost of machine to Bonita in today's term, we need to calculate the present value of annuity. We know that the payments made are in form of an ordinary annuity because the amount of payment is fixed (29000) , the payments are made after equal interval of time (at the end of each year) and are made in finite number (5 years).

We will multiply the annuity payment per period by the PV of ordinary annuity factor as provided in the question to calculate the value or price of machine today.

Cost of Machine today = 29000 * 3.99271

Cost of Machine today = $115788.59

d. Non-bank financial firms that provide profit advice to hedge fund managers.

Answers

Answer:

b. Non-bank financial firms that acted as banks by borrowing and lending in an effort to make a profit.

Explanation:

A shadow banking system can be described as a group of non-bank financial intermediaries that render services that are similar to the services that normal commercial banks render but the members of the group are not subject to normal banking regulations.

In addition, a shadow baking system can also be described as unregulated services rendered by regulated institutions.

Structured investment vehicles (SIVs), limited-purpose finance companies (LPFCs), asset-backed commercial paper (ABCP) conduits, and among others are examples of shadow banks.

Based on this explanation, the correct option is b. Non-bank financial firms that acted as banks by borrowing and lending in an effort to make a profit.

The Gecko Company and the Gordon Company are two firms whose business risk is the same but that have different dividend policies. Gecko pays no dividend, whereas Gordon has an expected dividend yield of 6 percent. Suppose the capital gains tax rate is zero, whereas the income tax rate is 40 percent. Gecko has an expected earnings growth rate of 10 percent annually, and its stock price is expected to grow at this same rate.

Required:
If the aftertax expected returns on the two stocks are equal (because they are in the same risk class), what is the pretax required return on Gordon’s stock?

Answers

Answer:

12.4%

Explanation:

After-Tax Return = Capital Gains Growth Rate (g) + Dividend Yield*(1-Tax Rate)

Capital Gains Growth Rate (g) = After-Tax Return - Dividend Yield*(1-Tax Rate)

Capital Gains Growth Rate (g) = 10 - 6*(1-40%)

Capital Gains Growth Rate (g) = 6.4%

Pre-Tax Return = Capital Gains Growth Rate (g) + Dividend Yield

Pre-Tax Return = 6.4% + 6%

Pre-Tax Return = 12.4%

Hence, the pretax required return on Gordon’s stock is 12.4%

Determine the following. If required, round your answer for the depreciation rate to two decimal places. (a) The depreciable cost $fill in the blank 1 (b) The depreciation rate $fill in the blank 2 per mile (c) The units-of-activity depreciation for the year $fill in the blank 3

Answers

Answer:

Cost of Truck = $160,000

Residual Value = $10,350

Useful Life = 41,000 miles

a. Depreciable Cost = Cost of Truck / Residual Value

Depreciable Cost = $160,000 - $10,350

Depreciable Cost = $149,650

b. Depreciation Rate = Depreciable Cost / Useful Life

Depreciation Rate = $149,650 / 41,000

Depreciation Rate = $3.65 per mile

c. Number of miles driven during the year = 3,300

Depreciation for the Year = Depreciation Rate * Number of miles driven during the year

Depreciation for the Year = $3.65 per mile * 3,300

Depreciation for the Year = $12,045
