Answer:

$72

Explanation:

To calculate the weighted contribution margin we can use the following formula:

[(sales price A - variable cost A) x proportional sales A] + [(sales price B - variable cost B) x proportional sales B]

= [($200 - $120) x 80%] + [($100 - $60) x 20%] = $64 + $8 = $72

Quantity demanded price quantity supplied 45 $10 77 50 8 73 56 6 68 61 4 61 67 2 57 refer to the data. suppose quantity demanded
saul85 [17]

a. When the demand increases by 12 units, the equilibrium price rises to $6.2093 and the equilibrium quantity rises to 67.7442 units.

b. The price elasticity of supply (PES) at equilibrium is 0.20. Since the price elasticity is less than 1, we conclude that supply is inelastic.

From the given data, we can see that the equilibrium price is $4 and the equilibrium quantity is 68 units.

If the demand increases by 12 units at each point of price decline, the demand equation will be :

Qd = 105 - 6P

and the supply equation will be:

Qs = 51.6 + 2.6P

Since Quantity demanded and supplied are equal at equilibrium, we can equate the demand and supply equations and solve for price (P). Equating the two equations above, we get,

105-6P = 51.6 +2.6P

53.4 = 8.6P

P = $6.2093

Substituting the value of P in the demand equation, we get,

Qd = 105 - (6*6.2093)

Qd = 105 - 6P

Qd = 67.7442 units

b. Calculation of Price Elasticity of supply at equilibrium level.

P₀ = $4

Q₀ = 61

P₁ = $6.2093

Q₁ = 67.7442

% change in quantity = [ (Q_1 - Q_0) / Q_0 ] * 100

% change in quantity = 11.05607%

% change in price = [ (P_1 - P_0) / P_0 ] * 100

% change in price = 55.2325%

Price Elasticity of Supply (PES):

PES  = % change in quantity / % change in price

PES = 11.05607% / 55.2325%

PES = 0.20

lina2011 [118]

Answer:

Net Present Value = $3,304.069

Explanation:

<em>To determine whether or not the investment was right, we will need to determine the net present value of the investment (NPV). </em>

<em>The NPV is the difference between the present value PV of cash inflows and the PV of cash outflows. A positive NPV implies a good investment decision and a negative figure implies the opposite. </em>

NPV of an investment(NPV)

NPV = PV of Cash inflows - PV of cash outflow

The cash inflow is an annuity.

PV of annuity= A× 1 -(1+r)^(-n)/r

A- Annual cash flow ,- 23,400 r - discount rate - 8%, number of years- 3

Present Value of cash inflow =23,400 × (1- (1.08)^(-3)/0.08 = 60,304.06

Initial cost = 57,000

Net Present Value = 60,304.06 - 57,000 = 3,304.069

Net Present Value = $3,304.069

<em>Kindly note that a discount rate of 8% was used as it is the opportunity cost of capital for the investment.</em>

WINSTONCH [101]

Organic structure.

Organic structure: It is defined as flat organizational structure as it does not follow normal hierarchical structure, it is more of a decentralized structure with a lesser layer of management at every level, where more information is shared among employee and each department co-operate with other departments, which helps the organization to adapt well with the changes. Employees have the opportunity to participate in the decision-making process of the organization.
