4. Profit maximization and loss minimization

Business
1 answer:
Stella [2.4K]2 years ago
6 0

Jake is incorrect with his assertion that the BYOB should charge 2.25 per can.

<h3>What is Profit maximization and Loss minimization?</h3>

The process of Profit maximization ensures that favorable output and price are achieved to maximize its return while the process of Loss minimization ensures there is lower loss on return in the longer-run.

Price     QD      T*R(P*Q)   Total cost(ATC*Q)    Profit(TR-TC)

2          1000     2000              2750                    -750

2.25      750     1687.5                 2625                   -937.5

Given that loss realized is lower in $2 per unit than $2.25 per unit, then, Jake is not correct with his assertion that the BYOB should charge 2.25 per can.

Note: The point has been placed on the graph to indicate the profit-maximizing price and quantity for BYOB.

pentagon [3]

In order for "limit pricing" to be effective, the firm practising such a strategy must be able to charge a price that is lower than the potential entrant's ATC but greater than the firm's own ATC.

Explanation:

A pricing strategy is a level where products are sold by a supplier at an expense that is cheap enough to make the market unprofitable for others. Monopolies use it in order to discourage market entry and in many cases it is illegal.

It is not able to sustain a monopolistic-ally profitable firm where P = MC and growth, with a long-run balance, generates an efficiency that approaches the minimum possible in an ATC business. Profit so long as potential customers can not enter the market.

mash [69]

Answer:

$16.27

Explanation:

For computing the intrinsic value, first we have to compute the earning per share which is shown below:

Earning per share = (Net income) ÷ (Number of shares outstanding)

                              = ($14.73 million) ÷ (20.05 million shares)

                              = 0.734

Now the intrinsic value would be

= Earning per share × P/E ratio

= 0.734 × 22.17

= $16.27

mojhsa [17]
Working at Hobby Lobby is like working at any other retail store. People ask where things are, you'll probably have to clean once in a awhile but it's fun and looks great on resumes for the future. Also, if you do work there, you probably won't be doing just the register.
