A firm has a marginal cost of $20 and charges a price of $40. the lerner index for this firm is 0.50.

<h3>What is Lerner index?</h3>

Lerner index, in economics is a measure of the market power of a firm. Formalized by the Russian-British economist Abba P. Lerner in 1934.

The Lerner index is expressed in the following formula:

Lerner index = P - MC/P

where P represents the price of the good set by the firm and MC represents the firm's marginal cost.

The index measures the percentage markup that a firm is able to charge over its marginal cost.

The index ranges from a low value of 0 to a high of 1.

The higher the value of the Lerner index, the more the firm is able to charge over its marginal cost, hence the greater its monopoly power.

Cost of equity=risk free rate+(Beta *risk premium)

risk free rate is the treasury bill rate of 4%

Ke is the cost of equity of 11.2%

Kd is the cost of debt of 5%

t is the tax rate of 40% or 0.4

E is the equity weighting of 70% or 0.7

D is the debt weighting of 30% or 0.3

V is the E+D=0.7+0.3=1

WACC=11.20% *0.7/1+(5%*0.3/1*(1-0.4)

WACC=7.84% +0.90% =8.74%

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

30000 units.

Explanation:

Given:

Parwin Corporation plans to sell 29,000 units during August.

We can assume it as Cost of good sold.

If the company has 11,000 units on hand at the start of the month. We can assume it as Beginning inventory

And plans to have 12,000 units on hand at the end of the month. We can assume it as Ending inventory.

Question asked:

How many units must be produced during the month ?

Solution:

We can determine unit must be produced (purchase) during the month by this formula:

Cost of good sold = Beginning inventory + Purchase - Ending inventory

29000 = 11000 + Purchase - 12000

29000 = - 1000 + Purchase

Adding both sides by 1000

30000 = Purchase

Therefore, as Parwin Corporation plans to sell 29,000 units during August, he must produced 30000 units during the month.

What influences the costumer when she or he is deciding whether to buy a product
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

Price

Explanation:

While there could be more than one factor that influences a customer's decision to buy a product, the underlining factor that has the most weight with regards to decision making is the price.

If a customer wants to buy a jacket that costs $4.99 and sees another store selling a jacket of the same quality or even less quality at $3.50, he is likely to buy the cheaper one in order to save some extra cash. It is linked with the purchasing power of the customer.
