The city of New Orleans has 200 advertising companies, 199 of which employ designers of normal ability at a salary of $100,000 a

zepelin [54]

Answer:

a. $700,000

b. 6/7 or 85.7%

c. No they will not.

Explanation:

a. Jacobs will earn the normal salary that the other designers in the other companies are getting in addition to the incremental income he brings to the company as a result of his talents.

Incremental income = Revenue with Jacobs - Revenue without Jacobs

= 1,000,000 - 400,000

= $600,000

Jacobs earnings = Normal designer earnings + incremental income

= 100,000 + 600,000

= $700,000

b. Economic rent is the excess amount that the company is paying Jacobs over what it should normally cost to get a designer.

Normal cost of designer is $100,000. Company is therefore paying an economic rent of $600,000.

Proportion of Jacobs salary that is economic rent = $\frac{Economic rent}{Jacobs annual earning}$

= $\frac{600,000}{700,000}$

= 6/7 or 85.7%

c. The company hiring Jacobs will not be making an economic profit because for them to make an economic profit they would have to be making more than the $400,000 that the other firms make. They cannot make this amount because for them to do so they would have to reduce the amount they pay Jacobs. If they do so, Jacobs would leave for greener pastures and then they would be making the same $400,000 that the rest are making.

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

Ruby should go to college.

Explanation:

Ruby is currently 50 years old and earning $50,000 per year.

She would like to retire at 67.

She is thinking of going back to college, to complete a graduate degree.

After completing a graduate degree from the college she would earn $55,000.

The total cost of a graduate degree is $75,000.

Ruby still has 17 years to work and earn.

Her income will increase by $5,000 after college

The increase in income earned after college until retirement

= $5,000 $\times$ 17

= $85,000

Since the increase in income is greater than the cost of going to college, Ruby should go to college.

Digiron [165]

Date Activities Units Acquired at Cost Units Sold at Retail

May 1 Beginning Inventory 150 units at $10.00

5 Purchase 220 units at $12.00

10 Sales 140 units at $20.00

15 Purchase 100 units at $13.00

24 Sales 90 units at $21.0

Answer:

Value of closing inventory =$1290

Explanation:

Under the LIFO inventory system units of inventory are priced using the price of the most recent batch purchased and this continues in turn.

The value of closing inventory = Total cost of inventory available for sales - cost of goods sold

The cost of inventory sold would be determined as follows:

140 units :140 × $12=1,680

90 units : 90× $13 = 1,170

Total cost of goods = 1,680 + 1,170 = 2,850

Total cost of inventory available for sales would be equal to :

(150 × $10.00) + (220 ×$12.00) = 4,140

The value of closing inventory = Total cost of inventory available for sales - cost of goods sold

4,140 - 2,850 = $1290

Value of closing inventory =$1290
