Ben Palman owns an art gallery. He accepts paintings and sculpture on consignment and then receives 20% of the price of each pie

ce as his fee. Space is limited, and there are costs involved, so Ben is careful about accepting artists. When he does accept one, he arranges for an opening show (usually for 3 hours on a weekend night) and sends out invitations to his customer list. At the opening, he serves wine, soft drinks, and appetizers to create a comfortable environment for prospective customers to view the new works and to chat with the artist. On average, each opening costs $500. Ben has given as many as 20 opening shows in a year. The total cost of running the gallery, including rent, furniture and fixtures, utilities, and a part-time assistant, amounts to $80,000 per year.
Required:
1. Assume that the cost driver is number of opening shows. Develop the cost formula for the gallery's costs for a year.
2. Using the cost formula developed above, what is the total cost for Ben in a year with 12 opening shows?

Answer:

1. The cost formula for the gallery's costs for a year would be Total cost=$80,000+$500X

2. The total cost for Ben in a year with 12 opening shows Using the cost formula developed is $86,000

Explanation:

1. According to the given data the cost formula for the gallery's costs for a year would be as follows:

Total cost=Fixed costs+Variable costs for the level of activity

Total cost=$80,000+$500*number of opening shows

Total cost=$80,000+$500X

2. The total cost for Ben in a year with 12 opening shows Using the cost formula developed above would be as follows:

Total cost=$80,000+$500X

Total cost=$80,000+$500*12

Total cost=$80,000+$6,000

Total cost=$86,000

The current price of the common stock of Internet Enterprises is $100. Over the course of a year, the stock's price will either
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

Current value of this newly issued option on Internet Enterprises= $25

Explanation:

Risk free rate for 6 month or period 1= (1000-909.09)/909.09=10%

Risk free rate for 1 year= (1000-826.45)/826.45=21%

Hence, risk free rate for period 2= (1+21%)/(1+10%)-1=10%

Now, Risk free rate factor for period 1 (R1)=1+10%=1.1

Risk Free rate factor for period 2 (R2)=1+10%=1.1

Upward price factor for a period(u)=(1+100%)^(1/2)=1.414

Downward price factor for a period(d)=(1-50%)^(1/2)=0.707

Probability of upward price= (R-d)/(u-d)=(1.1-0.707)/(1.414-0.707)=0.55

Probability of downward price= 1-0.55=0.45

After period 1: Upward price=100*1.414=141.4 with probability 55%

Downward price =100*0.707=70.7 with probability 45%

After period 2:

Upward Price will be =141.4*1.414=200 with probability= 55%*55%=30.25%

Downward price will be=70.7*0.707=50 with probability=45%*45%=20.25%

Mid price will be = 141.4*0.707 or 70.7*1.414=100 with probability =2*45%*55%=49.5%

Now, the highest price the stock can go is $200 with probability 30.25% and it was issued at $100

Hence, expected payoff of the option=30.25%*(200-100)=$30.25

So, current value of the newly issued option= 30.25/(1+21%)=$25

Demand for food doesn't change in response to a change in price. Why? 
Butoxors [25]
The price of elasticity of the product maybe considered inelastic since there is little to no responsiveness to the change in price of the product. A factor or reason can be that it is a necessity so persons still have to buy the product no matter the change in price.

Assume the real rate of interest is 4.00% and the inflation rate is 4.00%. What is the value today of receiving 11,134.00 in 9.0
ira [324]

Answer:

FV= $11,134

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Future value= $11,134

Interest rate= 4%

Inflation rate= 4%

Number of periods= 9 years

<u>The inflation rate provokes the opposite effect of the interest rate. Therefore, if the interest rate and the inflation rate are equal, the value of money through time remains constant.</u>

FV= PV*(1+i)^n

FV= 11,134* (1+0.04-0.04)^9

FV= $11,134
