Answer:

The price of $23 will maximize the total revenue.

Explanation:

Revenue is a function of price multiplied by quantity. Thus, the equation for revenue is,

Let p be the price.

Revenue = (3680 - 80p) * p

Revenue = 3680p - 80p²

To find the price that will maximize the revenue, we need to take the derivative of this equation as derivative tell us about change.

Taking derivative,

d/dp = 1 * 3680 - 2 * 80p

0 = 3680 - 160p

160p = 3680

p = 3680 / 160

p = 23

So, at price p=$23, the total revenue will be maximized.

Selected operating data for two divisions of Outback Brewing, Ltd., of Australia are given below: Division Queensland New South
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

Queensland 14.7%

New South Wales is 24.0%

Explanation:

This is a case of modified  return on investment since the question was specific that the  return on investment  should in terms margin and assets turnover.

The first task would be to compute margin and turnover  whereas the return on investment  would be  the multiples of both performance measures.

Margin =operating income/sales

Asset turnover=sales/average operating assets

operating income/sales*sales/average operating assets=operating income/average assets

This question also require proofing the above formula as I have done.

                                 Margin                  Assets turnover                      ROI

Queensland$82,320/$784,000=10.5%$784,000/$560,000=1.4     14.7%

South Wales$118,800/$1,485,000=8% $1,485,000/$495,000=         24.0%

R0I=margin*assets turnover

Queensland=10.5%*1.4=14.7%

New south sales=8%*3=24%

Although there are some clear disadvantages associated with extending credit to customers, such as bad debt costs, most managers
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

The primary advantage they refer to is additional sales revenue.

Explanation:

Extending credit to customers is generally done through use of credit cards these days. This does allow the customers to buy goods and services on credit and pay later for those goods.

Offering credit is beneficial for both the shopkeepers or merchants and the buyers. Customers do not have to pay cash (as they can run out of cash at times), so they buy more and this increases the sales revenue for the merchants, which becomes the primary advantage for them and outweighs the costs.

RT is about to loan his granddaughter Cynthia $10,000 for 1 year. RT’s TVOM, based upon his current investment earnings, is 12%,
qaws [65]

Answer:

They should not be able to successfully negotiate the terms of this loan within these parameters.

Explanation:

It has been provided that RT earns 12% on his current investments and would not like to receive an interest rate of less than 12% on the loan he gives.

if RT gives a loan of $10,000 for one year, he would charge an interest rate of minimum 12%.  

Interest = $10,000*0.12

             = $1,200

RT requires $1,200 in interest.

It has been provided that Cynthia earns 8% on her investment.

If she borrows $10,000 and invests the amount for one year, she can earn 8% return on such amount.  

Earning = $10,000*0.08

             = $800

Cynthia is going to earn $800

RT requires a minimum of $1,200 as interest for 1-year loan he gives while Cynthia can pay a maximum of $10,000 as interest for 1-year loan she takes. there is mismatch between the minimum expectation to receive of lender and the maximum expectation to pay of borrower.

Therefore, They should not be able to successfully negotiate the terms of this loan within these parameters.
