It is a false statement that profit-maximizing rule leaves room for cases where it is both possible and reasonable for a firm to operate at a loss over the long run.

<h3>What is a profit-maximizing rule?</h3>

The rule of profit maximization says that MC = MR where the MC means marginal costs and MR means marginal revenue.

As all costs are variable in the long run, then, a firm must always set its profit to zero by ceasing operation.

Therefore, It is false that profit-maximizing rule leaves room for those cases.

Minarski Electronics sells computers and provides hardware maintenance services. On April 1st, Minarski sold a package deal cont
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

$835

Explanation:

Calculation for the amount of revenue that Minarski Electronics recognize

First step is to find the Total cost amount if sold separately

Total cost if sold separately = 984+ 216

Total cost if sold separately= 1200

Second step is to find the Percentage of computer

Percentage of Computer = 984/1,200

Percentage of Computer = 0.82

Percentage of Computer =82%

Third step is to find the Percentage of maintenance

Percentage of maintenance = 216/1,200

Percentage of maintenance=0.18*100

Percentage of maintenance=18%

Next step is to calculate for the Revenue to be recognized for both computer and Maintenance service costs

Computer Revenue= 1,000 * 82%

Computer Revenue= 820

Maintenance service costs revenue =(18% * 1,000)/12

Maintenance service costs revenue =180/12

Maintenance service costs revenue =15

Last step is to find the Total amount to be recognized

Total amount to be recognized = 820 + 15

Total amount to be recognized=$835

Therefore the amount of revenue that Minarski Electronics will recognize is $835

Describe at least four factors that affect the demand for a particular commodity.
MrMuchimi

Answer with Explanation:

There are so many factors affecting the demand for a particular commodity. Four of these are: the price of the complements, the income of buyers, changes in trend and advertisements.

1. The price of the complements - Some commodities are complementary with each other, just like cars and gas. If the <em>price of cars decreases</em>, then many people will purchase their own cars, which also follows that <em>the demand for gas will increase.</em>

2. The income of buyers - If the income of a person increases, then he will most likely purchase a particular commodity because he can afford it and has an extra money to purchase goods.

3. Changes in trend - Many people purchase goods because they're on trend. For example, if flare pants are fashionable this year, then the demand for it will increase. Once they're no longer on trend, the demand will drop.

4. Advertisements - The more advertisements a company spends on, the more likely buyers will purchase a specific commodity.

Nice Corporation produces and sells a single product. Data concerning that product appear below: Per Unit Percent of Sales Selli
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

Therefore, the change in total contribution margin is equal to change in net operating income, so there is no change in fixed expenses  and will not be affected.

Explanation:

The computation as per given question is given below:-

Variable cost per unit

= $48 + $65

= $113

Contribution margin per unit

= $240 - $113

= $127

Unit Monthly sales

= 1,500 + 240

= 1,740

Total contribution margin

= 1,740 × $127

= $220,980

Total contribution margin

= 1,500 × $192

= $288,000

So, change in total contribution margin and net operating income

= $288,000 - $220,980

= $67,020

Therefore, the change in total contribution margin is equal to change in net operating income, so there is no change in fixed expenses  and will not be affected.
