Answer:

Option A is the answer

Explanation:

A risk-averse decision maker will go for the option with the least chance of loss incurred (the highest minimum payoff of $100) and settle for an expected value of 1900. He'll pay for his risk avoidance in this way (2200-1900 = 300) while a risk-seeking decision maker will go for the option with the highest payoff chances ($18,000), regardless of the possibility of failure. This would make the risk-seeking decision maker go for option A.

Zoie makes 2 products from a common input. Each product may be sold at the split-off point or processed further. The following i
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

Zoie

The minimum amount the company should accept if Product 1 is sold at the split-off point is:

= $30,000.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                                                          Product 1    Product 2

Allocated joint processing costs         21,200        35,700

Sales value at split-off point                38,100        19,200

Costs of further processing                17,000        19,900

Sales value after further processing 30,000       28,300

The minimum amount the company should accept if Product 1 is sold at the split-off point is $30,000.

b) Further processing of Product 1 does not make economic sense.  Zoie should sell the product at split-off point at $38,100.  Similarly, based on the facts provided, Product 2 hardly deserves further processing.

  2. For every additional car placed in service, estimate how much annual revenue will change.

Kosher Pickle Company acquires all the outstanding stock of Midwest Produce for $19 million. The fair value of Midwest's assets
shutvik [7]

Answer:

$7.2 million

Explanation:

For computing the amount paid for the goodwill, first we have to calculate the fair value of the net asset which is shown below:

The fair value of net asset = Fair value of Midwest's assets - fair value of Midwest's liabilities

= $14.3 million - $2.5 million

= $11.8 million

And, the acquisition price of the outstanding stock is $19 million

So, the goodwill would be  

= $19 million - $11.8 million  

= $7.2 million
