Answer:
there is no deadweight loss.
Explanation:
In a perfect competition, there are many buyers and sellers of homogeneous products, and there is free entry and exit in the market.
This simply means that, in a perfectly competitive market, there are many buyers and sellers (price takers) of homogeneous products (standardized products with substitute) and the market is free (practically open) to all individuals or business entities that are willing to trade all their goods and services.
Generally, a perfectly competitive market is characterized by the following features;
1. Perfect information.
2. No barriers, it is typically free.
3. Equilibrium price and quantity.
4. Many buyers and sellers.
5. Homogeneous products.
Examples of a perfectly competitive market are the Agricultural sector, e-commerce and the foreign exchange market.
Hence, if equilibrium is achieved in a competitive market then, there is no deadweight loss i.e a loss of economic efficiency due to a lack of balance in competing economical influences for goods or services.
Several financial or economic factors are relevant to the rent-or-buy decision. From the following list, identify the financial or economic factors that should be considered when performing this analysis. Check all that apply.
a. The pride that comes from owning your own home
b. Current and expected future housing prices
c. Current and expected future housing-related tax deductions
Answer:
The financial and economic factors that should be considered when performing this analysis are:
b. Current and expected future housing prices
c. Current and expected future housing-related tax deductions
Explanation:
a) A rent-or-buy decision should be based on financial and economic factors. There is the financial implication of making a down payment, closing costs, and maintenance expenses when one decides to own a home instead of renting an apartment. However, for the occupant, renting provides the advantage of known monthly costs. Some advantages of owning a house are building equity and tax benefits. The pride that comes that comes from owning a home is not a financial and economic benefit.
Multipoint pricing occurs when a company buys products at a cheaper rate in one country to sell at a higher price in another country. allows markets to determine the pricing of a product. aggressively prices in one market to elicit a competitive response from a rival in another market. prices its products at a loss in order to drive out competitors from the market. prices two similar products at low and high prices in order to boost sales of the lower priced products.
Answer:
aggressively prices in one market to elicit a competitive response from a rival in another market.
Explanation:
Price can be defined as the amount of money that is required to be paid by a buyer (customer) to a seller (producer) in order to acquire goods and services.
In sales and marketing, pricing of products is considered to be an essential element of a business firm's marketing mix because place, promotion and product largely depends on it.
One of the importance associated with the pricing of products is that, it improves the image of a business firm.
Multipoint pricing occurs when a company aggressively prices in one market to elicit a competitive response from a rival in another market.
This ultimately implies that, a company's pricing strategy in one market is likely to impact the pricing strategy of its rival in another market.

An investor thought that market interest rates were going to decline. He paid $19,000 for a corporate bond with a face value of $20,000. The bond has an interest rate of 10% per year payable annually. If the investor plans to sell the bond immediately after receiving the 4th interest payment, how much will he have to receive in order to make a return of 14% per year? Solve using:
a. tabulated factors
b. the GOAL SEEK tool on a spreadsheet.
Answer:
Answer is explained in the explanation section below.
Explanation:
a. In this part, we need to calculate the present worth using the formula to calculate the sale price of the bond.
As the coupon rate = 10% per year
So,
The Annual dividend will = 2000 = 10% x 20,000
19000 = 2000 (P/A, 14%,4) + B(P/F,14%,4)
19000 = 2000 (2.9137) + B (0.592)
Solving for B = Desired sales price of the bond
B = [tex]\frac{19000 - 5827.4}{0.592}[/tex]
B = 22251
b. Part b of this question is to solve using GOAL SEEK feature of a spreadsheet so, I have attached it in the attachment. Please refer to the attachment for the solution of part b.

Ending Inventory= 51,000
Sales= 485,000
To calculate the production required for the period, we need to use the following formula:
Production= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory
Production= 485,000 + 51,000 - 81,000
Production= 455,000 units

Mt Kinley is a strategy consulting firm that divides its consultants into three classes, associates, managers, and partners. The firm has been stable in size for the last 20 years, ignoring growth opportunities in the 90s, but also not suffering from a need to down-size in the recession. Specifically, there have been – and are expected to be – 200 associates, 60 managers, and 20 partners. The work environment at Mt Kinley is rather competitive. After 4 years of working as an associate, a consultant goes "either up or out", i.e. becomes a manager or is dismissed from the company. Similarly, after 6 years a manager either becomes a partner or is dismissed. The company recruits MBAs as associate consultants, no hires are made at the manager or partner level. A partner stays with the company for another 10 years (total of 20 years with the company). How many new MBA graduates does Mt Kinley have to hire every year? What is the probability that an incoming MBA graduate would make partner at Mt Kinley?
Answer:
1. 50 consultants per year
2. 4%
Explanation:
1. Calculation to determine How many new MBA graduates does Mt Kinley have to hire every year
Using this formula
Flow Rate of associates= Inventory / Flow Time
Let plug in the formula
Flow Rate of associates = 200 consultants / 4 years
Flow Rate of associates= 50 consultants per year
Therefore the numbers of MBA graduates that Mt Kinley have to hire every year is 50 consultants per year
2. Calculation to determine the probability that an incoming MBA graduate would make partner at Mt Kinley
First step is to calculate the Flow Rate of managers using this formula
Flow Rate of manager= Inventory / Flow Time
Let plug in the formula
Flow Rate of manager = 60 consultants / 6 years
Flow Rate of manager =10 consultants per year
Second step is to calculate the flow rate of partner using this formula
Flow rate of partner = Inventory/ Flow time
Let plug in the formula
Flow rate of partner = 20/10
Flow rate of partner = 2 partners per year
Third step is to calculate the probability of becoming a manager
Probability (Manager) = 10/50
Probability (Manager) = 20%
Fourth step is to calculate Probability of becoming a partner
Probability (Partner) = 2/10
Probability (Partner) = 20%
Now let calculate the probability that an incoming MBA graduate would make partner at Mt Kinley
Probability of MBA graduate becoming a partner = 20% x 20%
Probability of MBA graduate becoming a partner = 4%
Therefore the probability that an incoming MBA graduate would make partner at Mt Kinley is 4%
A note payable was executed by Sterling Inc. to Miami Finance Company. Sterling Inc. used $768,000 of its accounts receivable as collateral for the loan. The contract provided that Miami would advance 85% of the gross amount of the receivables. Sterling Inc. continues to collect payments for the receivables and the cash from customers is then remitted to the finance company. The cash remitted is first applied to the finance charges, with the remainder applied to principal.
During the first month, customers owing $524,800 paid cash, less sales returns and allowances of $20,480, originally recorded as a refund liability. The finance charge at the end of the first month was $4,480. During the second month, the remaining receivables were collected in full, except for $5,120 off as uncollectible. Final settlement was effected with the finance company, including payment of an additional finance charge of $1,920.

Sales $ 314,000 $ 290,000
Sales returns and allowances 8,000 4,700
Net sales $ 306,000 $ 285,300
Cost of goods sold:

A. 171 days.
B. 222 days.
C. 231 days
D. Less than 100 days.
Answer:
D. Less than 100 days
Explanation:
Average days inventory = 365 / Inventory turnover rate
But
Inventory turnover rate = Cost of goods sold / Average inventory
Also,
Average inventory = (Beginning inventory + Ending inventory) / 2
= ($62,000 + $18,000) / 2
= $40,000
Inventory turnover rate = $201,000 / $40,000 = 5.025
Average days inventory = 365 / 5.025 = 72.64 days

When using a physical-volume measure, what is the approximate amount of joint costs that will be allocated to cream and liquid skim
Question Completion:
Production:
Cream = 443,000 gallons
Liquid skim = 354,500 gallons
Total production = 797,500 gallons
Answer:
The approximate amount of joint costs that will be allocated to cream and liquid skim =
Cream = $1,305,392
Liquid skim = $1,044,608
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Direct materials purchased = 820,000 gallons
Total yield at split-off = 797,500
Joint costs = $2,350,000
Cream Liquid Skim
Sales units at split-off 424,000 344,500 gallons
Selling price per unit $130 $115
Production Cream 443,000 354,500 gallons
Allocation of joint costs, using a physical volume measure:
Cream = $2,350,000 * 443,000/797,500 = $1,305,392
Liquid Skim = $2,350,000 * 354,500/797,500 = $1,044,608
You won the lottery and may choose between Prize 1, which would pay you $50,000 today and $200,000 at the end of 10 years OR receive $50,000 today plus some annuity at the end of each year for 10 years. Using an interest rate of 5%, which of the following comes closest to the annuity that will make the present value of both prizes the same?
a. $172,782.65.
b. $38,431.68.
c. $122,782.65.
d. $15,900.91.
Answer:
Annual payment= $15,900.91
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the present value of Prize 1:
PV= FV / (1 + i)^n
PV= 50,000 + [200,000 / (1.05^10)]
PV= $172,782.65
Now, we need to determine the annuity that would make equal both prizes:
Difference= 172,782.65 - 50,000= $122,782.65
To calculate the annuity that would have a PV of $122,782.65; we need to use the following formula:
Annual payment= (PV*i) / [1 - (1+i)^(-n)]
Annual payment= (122,782.65*0.05) / [1 - (1.05^-10)]
Annual payment= $15,900.91

Ingersoll Company has a bond currently outstanding. The bond has a face value of $1,000 and matures in 10 years. The bond makes no coupon payments for the first three years, then pays $45 every six months over the subsequent four years, and finally pays $100 every six months over the last three years. If the required return on these bonds is 5.8% percent compounded semiannually, what is the current price of the bond
Answer:
$1,196.01
Explanation:
What is the current price of the bond
Face value of Bond = $1000
Term (maturity time) = 10 years
periods = 10 *2 = 20 ( semiannual compound of interest )
Yield = 5.8%. semiannual yield = 5.8% / 2 = 2.9% = 0.029
Next : calculate the value of bond using the relationship below
Discounting factor = 1/(1 + r)^n
n = number of payments
note : payments are made semiannually
attached below is a Table showing the discounting factor and present value starting from the 4th year ( Biannually )i.e. when payment commenced

You want to have $3 million in real dollars in an account when you retire in 40 years. The nominal return on your investment is 10 percent and the inflation rate is 4.8 percent. What real amount must you deposit each year to achieve your goal
Answer:
Annual deposit= $23,647.9
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Future value (FV)= 3,000,000
Numer of periods (n)= 40 years
Nominal rate= 10%
Inflation rate= 4.8%
To simplify calculations, we will calculate the real interest rate by deducting from the nominal interest rate the inflation rate:
Real interest rate= 0.1 - 0.048
Real interest rate= 0.052
Now, to calculate the annual deposit, we need to use the following formula:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual deposit
Isolating A:
A= (FV*i)/{[(1+i)^n]-1}
A= (3,000,000*0.052) / [(1.052^40) - 1]
A= $23,647.9
Barbara, a product manager at an organic soap manufacturing company, is supposed to interview a candidate for a new job opening in her department. The candidate arrives late to the interview, and therefore Barbara assumes that he will be tardy and uninterested in his job as well. Despite the fact that the candidate meets all the job requirements, Barbara rejects the candidate. Which of the following interview errors has Barbara most likely made?
A. The first-impression error.
B. The similarity error.
C. The contrast error.
D. The non-relevancy error.
Answer:
A. The first-impression error.
Explanation:
It is correct to say that Barbara probably made the first-impression error in the interview, because this error occurs when there are initial judgments about a candidate in the interview, it was what happened when Barbara thought that the candidate would be disinterested at work due to his late to the interview even the candidate meeting all the requirements of the position.
This error can be based on positive and negative judgments and can directly influence a job hiring.

You just won the $114 million ultimate lotto jackpot. Your winnings will be paid as $3,800,000 per year for the next 30 years. If the appropriate interest rate is 7.1% what is the value of your windfall?
Answer:
$46,684,511.77
Explanation:
To determine the value of the windfall, we would first determine the future value of the windfall and then determine the present value
Future value = annuity x annuity factor
Annuity factor = {[(1+r)^n] - 1} / r
FV = P (1 + r) n
FV = Future value
P = Present value
R = interest rate
N = number of years
Annuity factor = [(1.071)^30 - 1] / 0.071 = 96.177470
FV = $3,800,000 x 96.177470 = 365,474,386
Present value = FV x ( 1 +r)^-n
365,474,386 x (1.071)^-30 = $46,684,511.77

Chen Company's Small Motor Division manufactures a number of small motors used in household and office appliances. The Household Division of Chen then assembles and packages such items as blenders and juicers. Both divisions are free to buy and sell any of their components internally or externally. The following costs relate to small motor LN233 on a per unit basis.
Fixed cost per unit $5.20
Variable cost per unit $10.81
Selling price per unit $34.55
Assuming that the Small Motor Division has excess capacity, compute the minimum acceptable price for the transfer of small motor LN233 to the Household Division. (Round answer to 2 decimal places.)
Minimum transfer price $ per unit
Assuming that the Small Motor Division does not have excess capacity, compute the minimum acceptable price for the transfer of the small motor to the Household Division. (Round answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
1. If the small motor division has excess capacity,
Minimum transfer price = Variable cost + Opportunity cost
Variable cost per unit = $10.81
Add:
Opportunity cost per unit = $0.00 (Because the company has sufficient excess capacity)
Minimum transfer price = $10.81
2. If the small motor division has excess capacity,
Minimum transfer price = Variable cost + Opportunity cost
Variable cost per unit = $10.81
Add:
Opportunity cost per unit = $23.74 (As the company has no excess capacity, contribution lost is the opportunity cost)
Minimum transfer price = $34.55
N.B
Contribution lost = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit
= $34,55 - $10.8 = $23.74
