Which of the following is the correct way to describe equilibrium in a market?

Should companies be allowed to force stores to obey minimum prices? Yes or no? Explain the reason why you chose yes or no?

Viktor [21]

Yes, stores should be forced to obey minimum prices for a good or a company that is selling a service should as well. They should have to obey by this so that price competition isn't ongoing in the market. Larger producers can often charge a smaller amount for a product because they are producing them in high qualities. By charging less it gives them a competitive advantage over their competition in means of price. Unless the item is on clearance because a company is discontinuing stock of that item, they should have a set minimum as they do a set maximum they are allowed to charge for that item.

Consider luxury weekend hotel packages in las vegas. When the price is $250, the quantity demanded is 2,000 packages per week. W

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer: Elasticity of luxury weekend hotel packages in las vegas is -1.432.

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to a change in the price of the good.

Mid point method-

$e=\frac{Q2-Q1}{\frac{Q1+Q2}{2} } * \frac{\frac{P1+P2}{2} }{P2-P1}$ $e=\frac{1700-2000}{\frac{2000+1700}{2} } * \frac{\frac{280+250}{2} }{280-250}$

$e=\frac{-300}{1850} } * \frac{265}{30}$

$e= -0.16216*8.8333$

$e= -1.432$

Elasticity of luxury weekend hotel packages in las vegas is -1.432.

Lin corporation has a single product whose selling price is $134 and whose variable expense is $67 per unit. the company's month

Rashid [163]

Answer:

600 units

Explanation:

The equation to calculate target profit is:

S × Q = (V × Q) + F + T

S = sales price
Q = Quantity of units
V = Variable expenses
F = Fixed expenses
T = Target profit

$134Q = $67Q + $32,300 + $7,900

$134Q - $67Q = $40,200

$67Q = $40,200

Q = $40,200 / $67 = 600

Snowden Industries produces two electronic decoders, P and Q. Decoder P is more sophisticated and requires more programming and

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

Using Direct Labour hours;

The cost per unit for Decoder P=$5.76

The cost per unit for Decoder Q=$5.76

Using Activity based costing;

The cost per unit for Decoder P=$7.48

The cost per unit for Decoder Q=$5.01

Explanation:

A)Total Overhead cost= $275,000

Total Labour Hours=22,000

P Total Overhead =6,600/22,000*$275,000=$82,500

Overhead cost per unit=$82,500+$31,680/19,800units=$5.76

Fixed cost=$105,600

19800/66000*$105,600=$31,680

Q Total overhead =15,400/22,000*$275,000=$192,500

Overhead cost per unit=$192,500+$73,920/46,200units=$5.76

Fixed cost=$105,600

46,200/66000*$105,600=$73,920

B)Using activity based costing;

Total Overhead cost= $275,000

Repair and Maintenence Cost = $105,600

Total Labour Hours=22,000

P Overhead =6,600/22,000*$275,000=$82,500

Overhead cost perunit=$82,500/19,800units=$4.16

P Activities overhead=(2000+190+1400)/5750*$105,600=$65,931.13

Activity cost per unit=$65,931.13/19,800units=$3.32

Total Overhead cost =$4.16+$3.32=$7.48

Q Total overhead =15,400/22,000*$275,000=$192,500

Overhead cost per unit=$192,500/46,200units=$4.16

Q Activities overhead=(1000+60+1,100)/5750*$105,600=$39,668.87

Activity cost per unit=$39,668.87/46,200units=$0.85

Total Overhead cost =$4.16+$0.85=$5.01
