Price increases and demand is inelastic 5. Price increases and demand is unitary elastic 6. Price decreases and demand is perfectly inelastic 7. Price increases and demand is perfectly elastic

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Total revenue increases

If prices are reduced, demand would increase more than the fall in price and total revenue would increase.

2. Total revenue falls. If price is reduced, there would be little or no change in quantity demanded and as a result total revenue would fall.

3. Total revenue falls.  If prices are increased, demand would fall more than the rise in price and total revenue would fall.

4, Total revenue increases. If demand is inelastic and prices are increased, the rise in price would be greater than the fall in demand. As a result, total revenue increases

5. no change in total revenue . a increase in price leads to an equal change in quantity demanded and there would be no change in total revenue

6. fall. If prices decreases, there would be no change in quantity demanded and total revenue would fall

7. total revenue falls to zero. If prices are increased, demand would fall to zero and total revenue would fall

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.

Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price

If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes. If prices are reduced, demand would increase more than the fall in price and total revenue would increase. If prices are increased, demand would fall more than the rise in price and total revenue would fall.  

Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one. If price is increased, there would be little or no change in quantity demanded and total revenue would increase. If price is reduced, total revenue would fall.  

Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded. If price increases, there would be an equal change in quantity demanded, total revenue would remain the same

Answer 2

Answer:

a. The overall income will drop.

b. The overall income will drop.

c. The overall income will drop.

d. The overall income will rise.

e. The overall income will not change.

f. The overall income will not change.

g. The overall income will not change.

Explanation:

a. If there is an elastic demand for the product and the price goes down, the overall revenue will go down. This is due to the fact that when there is a decrease in price, there is a rise in the amount that is desired. This is due to the fact that customers are sensitive to changes in price and will begin purchasing a greater quantity of the item or service after the price has dropped. Yet, because of the drop in price, there will be a reduction in the overall income that is generated from the sale of the product or service. This is due to the fact that the increase in quantity will not be sufficient to compensate for the reduction in cost that will result from the sale.

b. If there is no change in the level of demand, but the price is decreased, total revenue will likewise go down. This is due to the fact that if there is a fall in price, there will be an increase in the amount that is desired. Unfortunately, the increase in quantity will not be sufficient to compensate for the reduction in price, which will result in a lower overall income. This is due to the fact that the increase in supply will not be sufficient to compensate for the reduction in cost.

c. If there is no significant change in demand, then higher prices will not significantly affect overall income. This is due to the fact that as the price goes up, the amount of the good that is desired will go down. This is due to the fact that customers are sensitive to changes in price and will begin purchasing less of the item or service as the price rises. Even if the rise in price is more than the reduction in quantity desired, the overall income will still fall because of the lower amount of the good or service that is being purchased.

d. If there is no change in the level of demand, a rise in price will lead to an increase in total income. This is due to the fact that if the price goes higher, the quantity needed will go down, but not by an amount that is sufficient to compensate for the price going up. As a consequence, there will be an increase in total income as a direct consequence of the price rise.

e. if the demand is unitary elastic and the price goes up, the overall revenue won't change but it will stay the same. This is due to the fact that whenever there is a rise in price, there is a corresponding fall in the number of goods that are desired. As a consequence, there will be no change in overall income as a result of the rise in price since it will be balanced out by the drop in quantity.

f. If there is no change in the level of demand, regardless of whether the price goes up or down, overall revenue will stay the same. This is due to the fact that even if prices go down, consumers will still want the same amount of the good or service. Thus, there will be no change in overall income as a consequence of the fall in price since this will be balanced out by the demand for the same amount.

g. If there is no change in demand despite a rise in price, businesses will get the same amount of revenue overall. This is due to the fact that once the price is raised, customers will no longer purchase any of the product or service. Because of this, there will be no change in overall income as a consequence of the rise in price since there will be no change in the amount that is required.

Cash collected from customers = $300,000

Accounts receivable at year end      52,000

Total Sales Revenue =                  $352,000

Utilities Expense:

Cash paid for utilities = $42,000

Utilities payable                  1,200

Total utilities expense  $43,200

Accrual net income:

Sales revenue  $352,000

Expenses:

Rent       32,000

Salaries 112,000

Utilities  43,200 (187,200)

Net income      $164,800

b) Accrual net income is determined on the accrual basis of accounting.  This basis takes into account all accrued expenses and revenue, all prepaid expenses and revenue received in advance, and provides for depreciation expenses, unlike the cash basis of accounting.

An entrepreneur recently purchased Cocoon's, a local deli, on the beach. To operate the business, she estimates that selling and administrative expenses will be $98,510.00 per year and that depreciation will be $20,000.00 per year. As part of her purchase, she took out a bank loan that will require $76,265.00 per year in interest. She anticipates paying a 32.00% tax rate on income. She estimates that the deli will attract 200.00 customers per day. Each customer will spend $12.00 on average. The cost of goods per customer will be $4.50. She will operate the deli 350.00 days per year. What is the projected net profit margin for the deli

Answers

Answer:

27%

Explanation:

The computation of the net profit margin is shown below;

As we know that

net profit margin = Net profit ÷ sales

where

net profit is

Particulars                                                                 Amount

Sales (200 customers × $12 × 350 days) $840,000

Less: cost of goods sold (200 customers × $4.50 × 350 days) -$315,000

Gross profit $525,000

Less:

Selling and admin expense -$98,510

Depreciation expense - $20,000

Bank loan interest -$76,265

Net income before tax $330,225

Less tax at 32% -$105,672

Net income after tax $224,553

Now the net profit margin is

= $224,553 ÷ $840,000

= 27%

The main advantage resulting from a premium pricing strategy is the higher profits. Another advantage is that customers that purchase premium products seek higher quality and tend to show higher brand loyalty associated with the status of using premium products. The disadvantages of premium pricing are that it cannot be applied to all products, the marketing efforts tend to be more specific, and therefore, represent a higher percentage of sales, and finally, not everyone is willing to pay premium prices.

The interest rate is 11% simple annual rate. c) Calculate the PV of a perpetuity with a cash flow of $333,333 received every third year. The first cash flow occurs in year 3. The interest rate is 11% simple annual rate.

Answers

Answer:

a) Calculate the PV of a perpetuity with a cash flow of $111,111 received every year. The first cash flow occurs in year 1. The interest rate is 11% simple annual rate.

PV of a perpetuity = annual payment / interest rate = $111,111 / 11% = $1,010,100

b) Calculate the PV of a perpetuity with a cash flow of $222,222 received every second year. The first cash flow occurs in year 2. The interest rate is 11% simple annual rate.

PV of a perpetuity = annual payment / interest rate = $222,222 / (11% x 2) = $1,010,100

c) Calculate the PV of a perpetuity with a cash flow of $333,333 received every third year. The first cash flow occurs in year 3. The interest rate is 11% simple annual rate.

PV of a perpetuity = annual payment / interest rate = $333,333 / (11% x 3) = $1,010,100

Explanation:

Since the interest rate is simple, not compounded, the three perpetuities have the same present value.

His credit card interest rate is 18.99%. What is his balance?

Answers

Answer:

$3,158.40  

Explanation:

The current balance on his credit card is the present value of $50 payable per month over 42-year period as shown below:

PV=monthly payment*(1-(1+r)^-n/r

PV=the unknown

montly paymet=$50

r=monthly interest rate= 18.99%/12=0.015825

n=number of monthly payments=42*12=504

PV=$50*(1-(1+0.015825)^-504/0.015825

PV=$50*(1-(1.015825)^-504/0.015825

PV=$50*(1-0.000365827)/0.015825

PV=$50*0.999634173/0.015825

During the year, James purchased $2,000 worth of equipment for cash, paid $560 towards salaries, and borrowed $80,000 from its bank to be repaid after 5 years. How much working capital does the company have as of December 31

Answers

Answer:

$370,440

Explanation:

The computation of the working capital is as follows:

As we know that

Working capital = Current asset - current liabilities

where,

Current Assets is

= Total current assets - purchase of an equipment - salaries - borrowed amount

= $658,000 - $2,000 - $560 + $80,000

= $735,440  

And, Current Liabilities is $365,000  

So, the working capital is

= $735,440 - $365,000    

= $370,440

During Year 3, Rex Co. introduced a new product carrying a 2-year assurance-type warranty against defects. The estimated warranty costs related to dollar sales are 2% within 12 months following sale and 4% in the second 12 months following sale. Sales and actual warranty expenditures for year ended December 31, Year 3 and Year 4, are as follows:

Year Sales Actual Warranty Expenditures

2008 $250,000 $2,250
2009 250,000 7,500
Total $500,000 $9,750

What amount should Gum report as estimated warranty liability on its December 31, 2009 balance sheet?

Answers

Answer:

the amount that should reported as the estimated liability is $20,250

Explanation:

The computation of the amount that should reported as the estimated liability is as follows:

= Total sales × total percentage - total actual warranty expenditure

= $500,000 × 6% - $9,750

= $30,000 - $9,750

= $20,250

Hence, the amount that should reported as the estimated liability is $20,250

You have purchased one call option expiring in one year with a strike price of $40. The current price of the underlying is $30, the interest rate is zero, and the premium for the call option is $2.63.
1) Draw the payoff and P&L diagrams for the call option at expiration.
2) What is the P&L on the option at expiration if the underlying is $57.50 (i.e. S1 = 57.5)?

Answers

Solution :

2). Calculation of the P & L on the option at expiration if underlying price is $ 57. 50

As the underlying price is more than the exercise price, the option is exercised.

The initial cash flow = - $ 2.63

Cash flow at the expiration = $ 57.50 - $ 40

                                             = $ 17.50

Therefore, profit = $ 17.50 - $ 2.63

                           = $ 15.07

1). The strike price or the exercise price = $ 40

    Premium for call option = $ 2.63

Mortensen Industries, which uses a process-costing system, adds material at the beginning of production and incurs conversion cost evenly throughout manufacturing. The following selected information was taken from the company's accounting records: Total equivalent units of materials: 8,000 Total equivalent units of conversion: 7,240 Units started and completed during the period: 6,100 On the basis of this information, the ending work-in-process inventory's stage of completion is:

Answers

Answer:

60%

Explanation:

Calculation for what the ending work-in-process inventory's stage of completion is:

First step is to calculate the Total materials

Total equivalent units of materials + Units started and completed during the period = Total materials or 6,100 + x = 8,000; x = 1,900 (8,100-6,100)

Second step is to calculate Partial units with conversion costs in ending inventory

Using this formula

Partial units with conversion costs in ending inventory= Equivalent units of conversion –

Units started and completed during the period

Let plug in the formula

Partial units with conversion costs in ending inventory= 7,240 – 6,100

Partial units with conversion costs in ending inventory = 1,140 units

Now let calculate the ending work-in-process inventory's stage of completion

Ending work-in-process inventory's stage of completion= 1,140 ÷1,900

Ending work-in-process inventory's stage of completion=0.6*100

Ending work-in-process inventory's stage of completion= 60%

Therefore the ending work-in-process inventory's stage of completion is:60%

There is a fence, built in the late 1940's, separating their properties. The Barretts bought their property in 1973 from the Prescott family with a warranty deed recorded in the appropriate government office. The Prescott family had purchased the property from the Nunn family in 1945, also with a warranty deed recorded in the appropriate government office. The Barretts attempted to sell their property and a dispute arose regarding the boundaries of the property. The property in dispute consisted of 34.28 acres in a heavily wooded area behind the residences. The disputed property was on the McGregor's side of the fence, but the Barretts argued that the deeds clearly outline the disputed property as part of their land. To trace their ownership, the Barretts produced the 1945 deed which described the land in great detail, using metes and bounds, and clearly included the 34.28 acres. The Barretts also produced the 1973 deed which Included a general description using the words, "the tract described in the 1945 deed from Nunn to Prescott." In other words, in the 1973 Deed's general description, the Prescott family claimed to convey their entire parcel obtained through the 1945 Deed, including the 34.28 acres in dispute. In contrast, the 1973 Deed's metes-and-bounds description did not contain the 34.28 acres. Instead, the 34.28 acres were directly next to the property described by the metes and bounds in the 1973 deed. Who owned the property?1. The Barretts claim the property belonged to them because of a legal transfer through (deed or adverse possession)2. Both the 1945 and 1973 deeds were ( warranty or grant or quitclaim) deeds.3. The 1945 deed (clearly or not clearly) conveyed the disputed tract from the Nunns to the Prescotts.4. The (general or metes and bounds) description in the 1973 deed seemed to include the disputed acreage.5. The (general or metes and bounds) description in the 1973 deed (clearly or clearly not) include the disputed acreage.6. In this situation, the general description of the land being conveyed (did or did not) conflict with the metes and bounds description.7. In this case, the description contained in the (metes and bounds or general description) will control and the Barretts (do or do not) own the property.8.
