The postal service of St. Vincent, an island in the West Indies, obtains a significant portion of its revenues from sales of spe

cial souvenir sheets to stamp collectors. The souvenir sheets usually contain several high-value St. Vincent stamps depicting a common theme, such as the life of Princess Diana. The souvenir sheets are designed and printed for the postal service by Imperial Printing, a stamp agency service company in the United Kingdom. The souvenir sheets cost the postal service $1.15 each. St. Vincent has been selling these souvenir sheets for $10.00 each and ordinarily sells about 61,000 units. To test the market, the postal service recently priced a new souvenir sheet at $11.00 and sales dropped to 51,000 units.

Answer:

It is more profitable to maintain the price at $10

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The souvenir sheets cost the postal service $1.15 each. St. Vincent has been selling these souvenir sheets for $10.00 each and ordinarily sells about 61,000 units. To test the market, the postal service recently priced a new souvenir sheet at $11.00 and sales dropped to 51,000 units.

We need to calculate the actual revenue and decide whether it is more convenient to increase the price or leave it as it is.

Actual revenue= 61,000 units* (10 - 1.15)= $539,850

New revenue= 51,000 units*(11 - 1.15)= $502,350

It is more profitable to maintain the price at $10

Dumping occurs when manufacturers decides to export products to other countries at prices below their cost of production. This is what is happened in this scenario. In trying to combat dumping, the importing country may impose antidumping duty.

BartSMP [9]

Answer:

Option B, Jamal is entitled to revoke acceptance because he took back the motorcycle after the seller's assurance that the nonconformity would be cured.

Explanation:

The primary purpose of purchasing goods is to obtain conforming goods of the desired quality. Occasionally, the seller delivers non-conforming goods, goods that fail to meet the contractual obligation (obligations include: seller's description, statements promises...). In situations like this the buyer may revoke his acceptance if already accepted or reject the delivery upon discovery.

If delivery is already accepted, acceptance may be revoked;

* On the reasonable grounds that its non-conformity would be cured and it has not be cured.

* Without discovery of such non-conformity if his acceptance was reasonably induced either by the difficulty of delivery before acceptance or by the seller's assurances.

Therefore, option B best suits the question. Under these circumstances, Jamal is entitled to revoke his acceptance because the he took back the motorcycle after the seller's assurance that the non-conformity would be cured which was not, even after several complaints.

Flauer [41]

Answer:

Yield to call (YTC) = 7.64%

Explanation:

Yield to call (YTC) = {coupon + [(call price - market price)/n]} / [(call price + market price)/2]

YTC = {135 + [(1,050 - 1,280)/5]} / [(1,050 + 1,280)/2]

YTC = 89 / 1,165 = 0.07639 = 7.64%

Yield to call is how much a bondholder will earn if the bond is actually called, and it may differ from yield to maturity since the call price is generally higher than the face value, but the yield to maturity generally is longer than the call period.

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

0.66

Explanation:

the fourfirm concentration ratio is the sum of the concentration ratio of the four largest firms in the industry.

The sales of the second largest firm = $35 million - ( $10 million + $4 million+ $2 million + $12 million ) = $7 million

concentration ratio of firm 1 = $10 million / $35 million = 0.29

concentration ratio of firm 2  = $7 million / $35 million = 0.2

concentration ratio of firm 3 = $4 million / $35 million = 0.11

concentration ratio of firm 4 = $2 million / $35 million = 0.06

Adding the ratios together = 0.66
