Answer:

The price elasticity of product x is -2 which suggests a negative co relation between price and demand. Also it suggests that with a one percent change in price the demand will change 2 percent in the opposite direction. So if the price of x is increased by one percent its demand will fall by 2 percent, which means a net decrease of 1(2-1) percent in revenue. 40,000*0.01=400

A negative cross elasticity suggests that the two goods are complementary and increasing the price of one good will lower the demand of the other one. SO in this case a one percent increase in the price of Good x will decrease the demand of good y by 1.7 percent therefore decreasing its revenue by 0.017*80000= 1360

Total Revenue will decrease by 1760 (1360+400)

Nice Corporation produces and sells a single product. Data concerning that product appear below: Per Unit Percent of Sales Selli
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

Therefore, the change in total contribution margin is equal to change in net operating income, so there is no change in fixed expenses  and will not be affected.

Explanation:

The computation as per given question is given below:-

Variable cost per unit

= $48 + $65

= $113

Contribution margin per unit

= $240 - $113

= $127

Unit Monthly sales

= 1,500 + 240

= 1,740

Total contribution margin

= 1,740 × $127

= $220,980

Total contribution margin

= 1,500 × $192

= $288,000

So, change in total contribution margin and net operating income

= $288,000 - $220,980

= $67,020

Therefore, the change in total contribution margin is equal to change in net operating income, so there is no change in fixed expenses  and will not be affected.

Your portfolio has a beta of 1.28. The portfolio consists of 25 percent U.S. Treasury bills, 31 percent Stock A, and 44 percent
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

2.21

Explanation:

Portfolio beta = Respective beta*Respective weight

<em>Beta of market=1;Beta of risk-free assets=0</em>

1.28 = (0.25*0) + (0.31*1) + (0.44*Beta of Stock B)

1.28 = 0 + 0.31 + 0.44*Beta of Stock B

1.28 - 0.31 = 0.44*Beta of Stock B

Beta of Stock B = 0.97/0.44

Beta of Stock B = 2.204545454545455

Beta of Stock B = 2.21

present value = $1,200,000

time = 6 year

discount rate = 18%

discount rate = 8%

to find out

What is the dollar value of the mistake

solution

we get here present value that is express as for both rate that is

present value = \frac{FV}{(1+r)^t}

put here value

present value =  \frac{1200000}{(1+0.18)^6}

present value 1 = $444517.85

and

present value =  \frac{1200000}{(1+0.08)^6}

present value 2 = $756203.55
