How does supply and demand affect prices?

2 answers:

There is an inverse relationship between the supply and prices of goods and services when demand is unchanged. If there is an increase in supply for goods and services while demand remains the same, prices tend to fall to a lower equilibrium price and a higher quantity of goods and services.

The higher the supply the lower the price will be and the higher the demand the higher the price will be. This means that they have an inverse relationship. In short, the more you need something the more you're willing to pay for it, and the less you need it the less you want to pay, and this is basically how the economy works when producing and selling.

Answer:

The net worth (owners' equity) for this business is $2.2 million

Explanation:

Net worth: It is also known as owner's equity which is a difference between total assets and total assets.

In this question, we use the accounting equation which is used to balance the debit and credit side of the balance sheet items.

So, the accounting equation is

Total Assets = Total Liabilities + Owner's Equity

where,

Company assets are $3.5 million

And, liabilities is $1.3 million

Now, apply the above equation to find out the value of the owner's equity

So, owner equity would be equals to

= $3.5 million - $1.3 million

= $2.2 million

Hence, the net worth (owners' equity) for this business is $2.2 million

A proposed new project has projected sales of $132,000, costs of $66,000, and depreciation of $13,500. The tax rate is 30%. Calc

Verizon [17]

Answer:Operating cash flow $ _50,250__

Yes, the answer is same in each case

Explanation:

a) EBIT + Depreciation - Tax

= ($132,000-$66,000-$13,500) + $13,500 - Tax

= $52,500 + $13,500-(30% x $52,500)

=$52,500 + $13,500-15,750

EBIT + Depreciation - Tax=$50,250

b)Top down OCF = EBIT - (EBIT x Tax) + Depreciation

Top down OCF = $52,500 - ($52,500 x 30%) + $13,500

Top down OCF = $52,500 -15,750 + $13,500

Top down OCF =$50,250

Tax shield OCF =(Sales - Cost)(1-t) + Depreciation (t)

Tax shield OCF = ($132,000-$66,000) (1-0.30) + ($13,500 x0.30)

Tax shield OCF =$66,000 x 0.7 + 4,050

Tax shield OCF = 46,200+ 4,050

Tax shield OCF = $50,250

Bottom Up OCF = Net Income + Dep

Bottom Up OCF =($132,000-$66,000-$13,500 ) - Tax ) + Dep

Bottom Up OCF = $52,500-(0.3 x $52,500 )+ $13,500

Bottom Up OCF = $52,500 -15,750 + $13,500

Bottom Up OCF =$50,250

When sold at a 40% discount, a sweater nets the merchant a 20% profit on the wholesale cost at which he initially purchased the

Airida [17]

Answer:

100%

Explanation:

Let the normal retail price of the sweater be 'SP' and the cost price be 'CP'

Therefore,

The selling price = SP - 40% of SP = SP - 0.4SP = 0.6SP

Now,

the profit = 20% of CP = 0.2CP

also,

Profit = Selling Price - Actual price

0.2CP = 0.6SP - CP

1.2CP = 0.6SP

CP = 0.5SP

SP = 2CP

thus,

Increase percentage in sweater marked up from wholesale at its normal retail price

= $\frac{SP-CP}{CP}\times 100$

= $\frac{2CP-CP}{CP}\times 100$

= 100%
