Answer and Explanation:

a and b. The average total cost and the marginal cost is shown below:

As we know that

Average cost is

= Total cost ÷ total number of customer loads

And, the Marginal cost is

= Additional total cost incurred for extra units generated

So based on this, the marginal cost and the average total cost are as follows

Customer load level   Total cost  Average cost   Marginal cost

     0                               $27

     1                                 $30          $30 ÷ 1 = 30        30 - 27 = 3

    2                                 $32          $32 ÷ 2 = 16        32 - 30 = 2

    3                                 $35        $35 ÷ 3 = 11.67     35 - 32 = 3

    4                                  $38        $38 ÷ 4 = 9.5       38 - 35 = 3

    5                                  $42       $42 ÷ 5 = 8.4       42 - 38 = 4

    6                                  $48       $48 ÷ 6 = 8          48 - 42 = 6

    7                                  $57        $57 ÷ 7 = 8.14      57 - 48 = 9

    8                                  $68       $68 ÷ 8 = 8.5      68 - 57 = 11

c. Now the customer loan you want is

As we know that

Profit = Marginal revenue - marginal cost

And, as we can see that at marginal cost 9 we can load 7 customers so the 7 customers would be wanted

Yellow Enterprises reported the following ($ in 000s) as of December 31, 2018. All accounts have normal balances. Deficit (debit
horsena [70]

Answer:

The shareholders equity as of 31 December, 2018 is $32,240

Explanation:

Here for calculating the shareholders equity we will first have to find the total paid in capital of the Yellow enterprises and after that we will subtract the deficit balance that is remained in the retained earnings account, by doing this we will get the total paid in capital and retained earnings. Now we just have to subtract the treasury stock from the total paid in capital and retained earnings to get the remaining balance , which would be the shareholders equity of the Yellow enterprises.

so first step would be taking out total paid in capital =

                         common stock

                                   +

                         paid in capital(excess of par)

                                   +

                        paid in capital treasury stock

=       2700 + 31,500 + 1300

Total paid in capital = $35,500

Next step is to subtract deficit balance in retained earnings from this to get the total paid in capital and retained earnings =

   total paid in capital - deficit balance in retained earnings

Total paid in capital and retained earnings = $35,500 - $3000

                                                                        = $32,500

Now the last step for taking out shareholders equity we will subtract the treasury stock from the total paid in capital and retained earnings,

Shareholders equity = total paid in capital and retained earnings

                                                          -

                                              treasury stock at cost

                                   = $32,500 - $260

                                    = $32,240

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

B) For the 11th worker, the value of the marginal product of labor is $4,000.

Explanation:

The marginal product of labor (MPL) of a company is the total change in output achieved by hiring an additional worker. To calculate the MPL we have to multiply the change in output (measured in units) times the revenue generated by every extra unit of output.

In this case, the MPL = 2 surfboards x $2,000 per surfboard = $4,000

Suppose the demand for Digital Video Recorders (DVRs) is given by Q = 250 - .25p + 4pc, where Q is the quantity of DVRs demanded
PIT_PIT [208]

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question

Suppose the demand for Digital Video Recorders (DVRs) is given by Q = 250 - .25p + 4pc, where Q is the quantity of DVRs demanded (in 1000s), p is the price of a DVR, and pc is the price of cable television. How much does the quantity demanded for DVRs change if the p rises by $40? A) drops by 10,000 DVRs B) increases by 16,000 DVRs C) drops by 2,500 DVRs D) increases by 4,000

Answer:

Drops by 10,000 DVRs

Explanation:

The demand for digital video recorders is expressed by

Q= 250- .25p+4pc

Where

Q represents the quantity demanded by the customers

P represents the price of DVR

pc represents the price of cable television

Since the factor of p in the expression above is negative, this implies that the quantity of DVR demanded in the market will reduce

If the price of DVR increase by $40, then the quantity demanded will reduce by

= 0.25×40×1000

= 10×1000

= 10,000 units

Hence the quantity of DVRs drops by 10,000 DVRs if the price is increased to $40

Sever21 [200]

Answer:

$87,200

Explanation:

The computation of the total amount of merchandise purchase is shown below:

As we know that

Cost of goods sold = Beginning merchandise inventory + purchase of merchandise - ending merchandise inventory

$69,400 = $11,600 +  purchase of merchandise - $29,400

$69,400 = -$17,800 + purchase of merchandise

So, purchase value of merchandise is

= $69,400 + $17,800

= $87,200
