If the nicotine cigarettes are highly addictive and they were to offer the free samples to young adults then it will make the people be highly addictive in the nicotine cigarettes and this will cause the economy in the producers to have a less demand in elasticity. If it has a less elasticity, then it will cause a large price change, affecting the consumed quantity by the consumers.

Answer:

Nicotine in cigarettes is in fact addictive. Producers of cigarettes offer free samples to young adults with the purpose of engaging them with the product. Directly it will increase dependence on the cigarettes which leads to higher sale levels for the producers and along with this, higher revenues.

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

To make it feasible it will need to operate 7 or more planes.

Explanation:

450,000 maintenance facility

useful life of 15 year

salvage value of 100,000

<u>saving cost per plane:</u>

third party cost - own facility cost = cost savings

           35,000  -          25,000      =    10,000

present value of the salvage value: (present value of a lump sum)

\frac{salvage }{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

salvage $ 100,000

time  15 years

Minimum accepter rate of return: 0.12000

\frac{100000}{(1 + 0.12)^{15} } = PV  

PV   18,269.6261

present worth of the facility:

450,000- 18,268.63 = 431,731.37

Now we determinate the PMT over a 15 years period to know the cost savings per year to justify the facility:

PV \div \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = C\\

PV 431,731

time 15

rate 0.12

431731.37 \div \frac{1-(1+0.12)^{-15} }{0.12} = C\\

C  $ 63,388.630

As each plane cost savings are 10,000

63,388.62  / 10,000 = 6.39

the company will need to operate 7 or more planes.

How does a monopoly's demand for labor shift if a second firm enters its output market and the result is a cournot duopoly equil
shusha [124]

Answer: The demand is shared with the new company that enters the market.

Explanation: The Cournot duopoly is an imperfect competition model, that is, the law of supply and demand is not freely used, in which two companies with equal costs compete with homogeneous goods in a static environment, that is, with the same characteristics.

For example: A leading brand of soda in the market, get a competitor that has the same characteristics. People will prefer one of the two brands and they will always lead the market, but they will have to divide the market.

UNO [17]

Answer:

$996,267.41

Explanation:

The Net Present Value of Alpha`s project can be determined by using the CFj Function of a Financial Calculator as follows :

<em>- $400,000  CF0</em>

<em>$325,000     CF1</em>

<em>$500,000    CF2</em>

<em>$400,000    CF3</em>

<em>$475,000    CF4</em>

<em>I/YR = 8%</em>

<em>Then, SHIFT NPV gives $996,267.41</em>

Thus, Alpha's net present value (NPV) is $996,267.41.
