Answer:

break even rate = $31000

ultra break even point  = $62000

Explanation:

given data

total fixed costs = $1,612,000

solution

WE FIND HERE FIRST contribution margin that is

contribution margin for regular per unit = $20 - $8

contribution margin = $12

and

contribution margin for ultra = $24 - $ 4

contribution margin for ultra = $20

so if 1 unit of regular is sold

2 unit of ultra will sold here

so

contribution margin is here

contribution margin = ( $12 × 1 )+  (  $12 × 2 )

contribution margin =  $52

and

break even point at commposite rate = total fix cost ÷ contribution margin rate at commposite rate

so

break even rate = \frac{1612000}{52}

break even rate = $31000

and

ultra break even point = 31000 × 2

ultra break even point  = $62000

Suppose that two Japanese companies, Hitachi and Toshiba, are the sole producers (i.e., duopolists) of a microprocessor chip use
Dima020 [189]

Answer: Please refer to Explanation

Explanation:

a) When both Hitachi and Toshiba engage in a limited campaign, they both earn $11 million.

If both engage in an extensive campaign they both earn $8 million.

However, if one firm engages in an extensive campaign and the other firm engages in a limited one, the firm engaging in a limited campaign earns $4 million while the one engaging in an extensive campaign earns $16 million.

I have attached a photo to show the payoff matrix as a table.

b) In the absence of a binding and enforceable agreement, that is to say that if both firms are not colluding, Hitachi's dominant strategy would be to engage in an EXTENSIVE PROMOTIONAL CAMPAIGN.

A Firm's dominant strategy in absence of an agreement is that strategy that a firm can go on and make a maximum amount of profit regardless of what the other firm does.

Should Hitachi engage in an Extensive Campaign, they will make $16 million in quarterly profit if Toshiba engages in a Limited Campaign. Should Toshiba also decide to engage in an Extensive Campaign, then Hitachi makes a profit of $8 million. This is therefore their best alternative as opposed to embarking on a limited Campaign where there is a chance that they will make $4 million.

With the Extensive Campaign, Hitachi's Minimum Payoff is $8 million.

c) The game is the same for both players so the best option for Hitachi, is the best option for Toshiba as well. This means that Toshiba's dominant Strategy is an EXTENSIVE PROMOTIONAL CAMPAIGN and their minimum payoff is $8 million as well.

Courts Distributors needed two hundred compact refrigerators on a rush basis. It contacted Eastinghouse Corporation, a manufactu
Romashka [77]

Answer:

Courts Distributors and Eastinghouse Corporation

Dispute over Contract Price

The two parties have a legal contract.  The contract was established when Courts requested Eastinghouse to send the refrigerators and bill later.

The exact price for the contract is in dispute.  This dispute can be resolved between the parties.  Reference to the market price will help resolve the dispute, otherwise, the parties may seek alternative dispute resolutions, like litigation, mediation, or arbitration.

Explanation:

a) Data and Analysis:

Eastinghouse's invoice price for the refrigerators = $140,000

Courts' adopted market price = $120,000

b) Since Courts' reference to the price is with regard to the wholesale market price, it may be that Eastinghouse quoted the retail price instead.  Since Courts is a distributor, it has the right to be charged a wholesaler's price and not a retailer's.  Therefore, we can conclude that after due reference to the prevailing market price of similar refrigerators, the two parties may agree to a price of $120,000 or a little higher.

AlekseyPX

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": true.

Explanation:

Companies using the process costing approach accumulate and assign costs to mass production of a good. Instead, job order costing assigns costs of manufacturing to individual units of production. In process costing, the costs are reported from one department involved in manufacturing to another following the production process. On the other hand, in job order costing, the costs are reported in job cost cards as they are being used.
