Except for college book stores, all of the following are examples of oligopolistic markets.

An oligopolistic market (also known as an oligopoly) is characterized by the dominance of a small number of businesses that provide comparable products and services over a large number of others. In an oligopolistic market, there are few competitors, which limits competition and enables every firm to thrive. The environment often encourages cooperative behavior and regular business ties between companies.

It's crucial to keep in mind that oligopolistic enterprises are those that do business in oligopolistic markets. Businesses typically determine trends and pricing by establishing alliances and agreements that set prices higher than the marginal costs of the dominant firms. It implies that businesses operating in an oligopoly fix prices to maximize their own profit. In the end, it results in alliances and partnerships that help them and other businesses, particularly smaller ones engaged in the same market or sector, succeed.

If one company in a market cuts the prices it charges for goods and services to achieve the best possible increase in sales, firms that are directly competing usually do the same, frequently igniting a price war. Oligopoly firms typically avoid engaging in such pricing wars and instead invest more funds in research to enhance their products and services and in advertising that emphasizes their advantages over rival firms selling comparable goods and services.

Ginny Trueblood is considering an investment which will cost her $120,000. The investment produces no cash flows for the first y
velikii [3]

Answer:

The project should be rejected as the payback period of 3.97 years exceeds the required 3 years. So, the correct option is E

Explanation:

The table showing the discounted cash flows of each year:

Computing discounted payback as:

Discounted Payback = Number of years + (Initial Cost - Discounted Cash flow of year 1 + Discounted Cash flow of year 2 + Discounted Cash flow of year 3 / Discounted Cash flow of year 4)

= 3 + ($120,000 - $0 - $28,925.62  - $41,322.31  / $51,226.01)

= 3 + ($49,752.07 / $51,226.01)

= 3 + 0.97

= 3.97

Working Note:

Discounted Cash Flow is computed as:

Discounted cash flow = Cash Flow / (1 + r) ^ n

where

r is rate of return that is 10%

n is number of year

So,

For 1st year:

= $0 / (1 + 0.1) ^1

= $0

For 2nd year:

= $35,000 / (1 + 0.1) ^ 2

= $35,000 / 1.21

= $28,925.61

For 3rd year:

= $55,000 / (1 + 0.1) ^ 3

= $55,000 / 1.331

= $41,322.31

For 4th year:

= $75,000 / (1 + 0.1) ^ 4

= $75,000 / 1.4641

= $51,226.01

Kobotan [32]

Based on the fact that Kay Company will use direct labor hours as its overhead allocation base, the overhead for a product with 5 labor hours is $228.

<h3>What is the overhead assigned to the product?</h3>

= Total overhead cost / Number of labor hours x Product labor hours

Solving gives:

= 4,104,000 / 90,000 x 5

= 45.6 x 5

= $228
