Answer:

FCFF = $335.50

Explanation:

Formula of Free Cash Flow to the firm ( FCFF) :

FCFF= Net Income+ Interest(1- tax rate)+ Depreciation+ working capital changes- capital investment

Now let us note some critical points and assumptions which are necessary to solve the question.

As the question says that the company will maintain its existing after tax return on capital invested next year, hence that means that the net income for the next year remains the same, which is $140.

It is also that the company expects it's Operating Income(EBIT) to increase by 6% every year, hence it's operating income(EBIT) for the next year will be $250*(1.06)= $265

Tax rate remains the same, that is, (60/200*100)= 30%

As there is no details with respect to working capital changes and any capital investment made, hence it is assumed to zero changes and no additional investment.

It is assumed that the depreciation method being followed is straight line method, hence depreciation value next year would be the same, that is, 150

Now let's finalise our income statement:

EBIT = $265 given in the question

Interest = ( $65) backward calculation

Taxable Income = $200

Taxes (30%) = ($60)

Net income = $140 given in question.

Hence our FCFF will be :

$ 140 + $65*(1-0.30) + $150 = $335.50

Answer:

B. a brand new automobile dealership opens in town.

Explanation:

In Economics, there are primarily two (2) factors which affect the availability and the price at which goods and services are sold or provided, these are demand and supply.

The law of demand states that, the higher the demand for goods and services, the higher the price it would be sold all things being equal.

Thus, there exist a negative relationship between the quantity of goods demanded and the price of a good i.e when the prices of goods and services in the market increases or rises: there would be a significant decline or fall in the demand for this goods and services.

This ultimately implies that, an increase in the price level of a product usually results in a decrease in the quality of real output demanded along the aggregate demand curve.

An aggregate demand curve gives a negative relationship between the aggregate price level for goods or services and the quantity of aggregate output demanded in an economy at a specific period of time.

Most economists use the aggregate demand and aggregate supply model primarily to analyze short-run fluctuations in the economy.

This simply means that, whatever makes the factors of production such as, land, labor, entrepreneurship, capital, or efficiency to either go up or down would certainly result in fluctuations in the economy of a particular country. Similarly, a positive increase of the aggregate demand or supply curve results in a rightward shift while a decrease would cause a leftward shift.

In this scenario, the factors which would shift the demand curve for automobile are;

I. A fall in the price of gasoline.

II. An increase in the amount of money being paid to its workers.

However, the demand curve for automobile wouldn't shift to the right because a brand new automobile dealership opens in town. This is more likely to shift the aggregate supply curve to the right.

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

3) laissez-faire

Explanation:

Laissez-faire is a French expression that means to let us do, or applied to economics, let the economy self regulate itself. It was not a doctrine developed by Adam Smith, but rather by French economists who supported the idea of no government intervention in the economy.

President Coolidge believed that the government should not interfere with businesses and that businesses themselves were able to create prosperity for the nation.

The manager of a 150-unit apartment complex knows from experience that all units will be occupied if the rent is $1000 per month
Roman55 [17]

The rent that the manager should charge to maximize revenue will be $2,000.

In business, a rent is known as the cost incurred by a business to utilize a property or location for an office, retail space, factory, or storage space.

Initially, to find revenue by coming up we can calculate with an equation below:

Revenue = Price × Revenue

Where, price = 1000 + 20x

Quantity = 150 - x

R(x) = (1000+20x) (150-x)

R(x) = 150000 - 1000x + 3000x - 20x²

R(x) = - 20x² + 2000x + 150000

To maximize the revenue, we calculate the derivative and set it to zero:

R(x) = - 20x² + 2000x + 150000

R(x) = -40x + 2000

-40x + 2000 = 0

40x = 2000

x = 50

After we find the amount of X, thus we determine the rent that the manager should  charge to maximize revenue

Price=$1000+20x

Price=$1000+20(50)

Price=$1,000 + 1,000

Price = $2,000
