Can you identify the assumptions that we have made in order to create the production possibilities frontier model?

1 answer:

6 0

The management is first assumed to desire to produce as much output as possible in order to maximize profit. Another supposition is that the company may improve output by employing more input and that higher output equates to more profits.

<h3>What are the production possibilities, frontier model?</h3>

The graph known as the Production Possibilities Frontier (PPF) illustrates all the possible output combinations of two items that can be created with the resources and technologies currently in use. The PPF effectively expresses the ideas of choice, tradeoffs, and scarcity.

Frontier of Assumptions for Production PPF's first presumption is that the current technology setup or infrastructure will not change. The second presumption is that it only compares two goods or services that make use of the same resources.

A corporation makes an investment of $20,000 that will provide the following cash flows after the corresponding amounts of time:

s344n2d4d5 [400]

A) The company should not invest in the provided project due to the negative NPV of the project.

B) The NPV of the project comes out to be (286).

NPV is an abbreviated form of Net present value and computed by deducting the cash outflows from cash inflows at the present value.

Given values:

Cash flow of year 1: $10,000

Cash flow of year 2: $10,000

Cash flow of year 3: $2,000

Cash outflow (cost of investment) =$20,000

Step-1 Computation of PV of cash inflows of every year:

PV of year 1 = Cash inflow of year 1 / (1+ interest rate)^ 1

= $10,000 / (1+0.07) ^ 1

= $10,000 X 0.934579

= $9,346

PV of year 2 = Cash inflow of year 1 / (1+ interest rate)^ 2

= $10,000 / (1+0.07) ^ 2

= $10,000 X 0.873438

= $8,735

PV of year 3= Cash inflow of year 1 / (1+ interest rate)^ 3

= $2,000 / (1+0.07) ^ 2

= $2,000 X 0.816297

=$1,633

Step-2 Computation of total amount of PV of cash inflows:

$\rm\ PV \rm\ of \rm\ cash \rm\ inflows = \rm\ PV \rm\ of \rm\ year \rm\ 1 + \rm\ PV \rm\ of \rm\ year \rm\ 2 + \rm\ PV \rm\ of \rm\ year \rm\ 3\\\rm\ PV \rm\ of \rm\ cash \rm\ inflows =\$9,346 + \$8,735 + \$1,633\\\rm\ PV \rm\ of \rm\ cash \rm\ inflows =\$19,714$

Step-3 Computation of NPV:

$\rm\ NPV=\rm\ PV \rm\ of \rm\ cash \rm\ inflows- \rm\ Cost \rm\ of \rm\ investment\\\rm\ NPV=\$19,714-\$20,000\\\rm\ NPV=\$ (286)$

Therefore, the NPV comes out to be a negative amount of 286, and hence, the company should not accept the project.

At December 31, 2017, Sager Co. had 1,200,000 shares of common stock outstanding. In addition, Sager had 450,000 shares of prefe

AnnZ [28]

Answer: $3.49

Explanation:

Diluted earnings per share = $\frac{Net Income}{Outstanding Common Stock + Convertible shares}$

Diluted Earnings per share = $\frac{6,800,000}{1,200,000 + 750,000}$

Diluted Earnings per share = 3.4871

Diluted Earnings per share = $3.49

In a dealer market, some dealers hold a certain inventory of specific securities and create a liquid market by purchasing and se

UNO [17]

Answer:

Dealers profit comes from the spread primarily. Spread is the differential amount between buying and selling.

Explanation:

Let us assume the price of security X is USD 100 (last trade price)

A dealer will purchase this security at discounted price from the investor say USD 99 and will sell the same security in the market at USD 100, thus earning spread.

Further being market markers, dealers often use multiple strategies to prop up the price of particular security and earn gains on inventory held.

Shawn exchanges a factory building for an apartment building in a qualifying like-kind exchange. The factory has a basis of $350

Setler [38]

Answer:

a.$30,000

b.The alternative i could suggest to Shawn is that he may sell the factory building instead of him to purchase the apartment building in order for him to recognize the loss which will inturn lower his taxes.

Explanation:

a. Calculation of what is Shawn’s realized gain or loss and the basis of the apartment building

Since Shawn tend to received the apartment building which has a Fair Market Value of $320,000 in exchange of his $350,000 worth of factory , this means he had a lost of $30,000 which is calculated as ($320,000-$350,000) which can therefore be deferred

b. The alternative i could suggest to Shawn is that he may sell the factory building instead of him to purchase the apartment building in order for him to recognize the loss which will inturn lower his taxes.

Consider the following marginal cost function. a. Find the additional cost incurred in dollars when production is increased from

weqwewe [10]

Answer: (a) $197,500

(b) $ 189,500

Explanation:

Given : The marginal cost function : $C′(x)=4000−0.4x$

To find the cost function, we need to integrate the above function with respect to x.

Now, the additional cost incurred in dollars when production is increased from 100 units to 150 units will be:-

$\int^{150}_{100}\ C'(x)\ dx\\\\=\int^{150}_{100} (4000-0.4x)\ dx\\\\=[4000x-\dfrac{0.4x^2}{2}]^{150}_{100}\\\\=[4000(150)-\dfrac{0.4(150)^2}{2}-4000(100)+\dfrac{0.4(100)^2}{2}]\\\\=[600000-4500-400000+2000]\\\\=197500$

Hence, the additional cost incurred in dollars when production is increased from 100 units to 150 units= $197,500

Similarly, the additional cost incurred in dollars when production is increased from 500 units to 550 units :-

$\int^{550}_{500}\ C'(x)\ dx\\\\=\int^{550}_{500} (4000-0.4x)\ dx\\\\=[4000x-\dfrac{0.4x^2}{2}]^{550}_{500}\\\\=[4000(550)-\dfrac{0.4(550)^2}{2}-4000(500)+\dfrac{0.4(500)^2}{2}]\\\\=[2200000-60500-2000000+50000]\\\\=189,500$

Hence, the additional cost incurred in dollars when production is increased from 500 units to 550 units = $ 189,500
