On June 1, 2021, Royal Property Management entered into a one-year contract to oversee leasing and maintenance for an apartment
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

$9,041

Explanation:

The computation of the total amount of revenue Royal should recognize on contracts in November of 2021 is shown below:-

Revenue to be recognized for 4 months = $62,000 × 4 ÷ 12

= $20,667

Total Fees = $62,000 + ($62,000 x 15%)

= $71,300

Revenue recognized at the end of November

= $71,300 × 5 ÷ 12

= $29,708

Revenue recognized in November of 2021

= Revenue recognized at the end of November  - Revenue to be recognized for 4 months

= $29,708 - $20,667

= $9,041

1. You and your best friend are brilliant entrepreneurs who are considering opening your own business tutoring struggling colleg
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

a. Accounting profit for the business = $3,500

b. Economic loss = $1,000

c. The two friends can open the business and incur economic loss of $1,000 in the first year of operation.  In subsequent years, the revenue may increase to generate better economic profit.  This is the labor, risk, and reward of entrepreneurship.

d. If the two friends do not go ahead with the business because of the economic loss they suffer in the first year of operation, then they cannot be regarded as entrepreneurs.  They are merely laborers who cannot assume any risk for greater rewards tomorrow.

Explanation:

Cost of business per month:

Operating expenses = $4,000

Lease of building =        2,000

Total expenses =        $6,000

Revenue =                 $10,000

Accounting profit       $4,000

Economic profit:

Revenue =               $10,000

Total expenses =     $6,000

Opportunity costs:

Lost salaries              4,500

Lost Interest                500

Total costs             $11,000

Economic loss =     $1,000

Consider the production of paper in Strelsau. Suppose that the supply of paper is upward-sloping and the demand for paper is dow
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer: The optimal price is higher than market price by less than $0.50.

Explanation:

Since, it was given that Coase theorem doesn't hold in this situation, hence, the social marginal cost is greater than the private marginal cost by $0.50. The social marginal cost curve lies towards the left of demand curve.

Since the demand and supply curve are not perfectly elastic or inelastic, so the optimal equilibrium occurs at a point (price) which is greater than the prevailing market price, but the difference in the price is less than $0.50.

Therefore, the optimal price is higher than market price by less than $0.50.
