Answer:

the picture attached is the main question while the solution is given in the explanation box below

Explanation:

a)

2017 = Loss = 25000 * 8 * [0.42-0.50] = 16000

2018 = Gain = 25000 * 8 * [0.50-0.43] = 14000

b)

2017 = gain = 25000 * 8 * [0.48-0.42] = 12000

c)

2017 = Loss = 25000 * 8 * [0.48 - 0.50] = 4000

2018 = Gain = 25000 * 8 * [0.50-0.43] = 14000

Does​ Firm A have a dominant strategy? The dominant strategy for Firm A is a low price. No, there is no dominant strategy for Fi
ollegr [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

I will give a basic hint to understanding this problem

Prevailing technique or what is best known as "Dominant Strategy" is an activity profile that is best for a specific player review of what different players are picking. for this situation there is no prevailing procedure for any player on the grounds that there is no single activity profile that expands the result for any player.

So we can say from this observations that the following is valid;

  • A doesn't have a dominant strategy

  • B doesn't have a dominant strategy

There are two Nash equilibria for this situation. Both the organizations are charging a low cost and both the organizations are charging a significant expense.

As such they can augment their benefit given what the adversary is doing.

I hope this explains the observation seen.

cheers I hope this helps

kifflom [539]

Answer:

revenue falls by $167,005.08

Explanation:

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

Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price  

When elasticity of demand is less than 1, demand is inelastic

Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded.

change in percentage demanded when price falls by 11% = 11% x 0.6 = 6.6%

Quantity demanded increases by 6.6%

Increase in quantity demanded = 18,100 x 1.066 = 19,294.60

decrease in price = 0.89 x $180 = $160.20

change in total revenue

(180 x 18,100 ) - ( $160 .20 x 19,294.60)

= 3,258,000 - 3,090,994.92

=167,005.08

Derrick Iverson is a divisional manager for Holston Company. His annual pay raises are largely determined by his division’s retu
almond37 [142]

Answer:

a. Project's net present value is $1,015,163.09

b. Simple rate of return is 15%

c. Yes. The reason is that the project has a positive net present value of $1,015,163.09.

d. No. The reason is that the simple rate of return of 15% obtained in part b is lower the division’s return on investment (ROI), which has been above 20% each of the last three years.

Explanation:

a. Compute the project's net present value.

To compute this, we first calculate the annual cash inflow as follows:

Annual cash inflow = Net operating income + Depreciation = $452,000 +  $828,000 = $1,,280,000

Now, the project's net present value can be calculated using the formula for calculating the present of an ordinary annuity as follows:

PV = P * [{1 - [1 / (1 + r)]^n} / r] …………………………………. (1)

Where;

PV = Present value of the annual cash flow = ?

P = Annual cash inflow = $1,280,000

r = Discount rate = 17%, or 0.17

n = Equipment useful years = 5

Substitute the values into equation (1) to have:

PV = $1,280,000 * [{1 - [1 / (1 + 0.17)]^5} / 0.17]

PV = $4,095,163.09

Project's net present value = PV - Project's initial investment = $4,095,163.09 - $3,080,000 = $1,015,163.09

b. Compute the project's simple rate of return

This can be computed as follows:

Simple rate of return = Net operating income / Initial investment =  $452,000 / $3,080,000 = 0.15, or 15%

c. Would the company want Derrick to pursue this investment opportunity?

Yes. The reason is that the project has a positive net present value of $1,015,163.09.

Note that had it been the net present value of the project was negative, the company would not want to Derrick to pursue this investment opportunity since the decision of the company is based on whether the project's NPV is positive or negative.

d. Would Derrick be inclined to pursue this investment opportunity?

No. The reason is that the simple rate of return of 15% obtained in part b is lower the division’s return on investment (ROI), which has been above 20% each of the last three years.

Pursuing this investment opportunity will therefore reduce the Overall ROI of the division and Derrick will not get annual pay raises if this happens.

The standard cost card for a product indicates that one unit of the product requires 8 kilograms of a raw material at $0.80 per
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

Direct material quantity variance= $992 unfavorable

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Standard quantiy= 8kg

Standard cost= $0.8 per kilogram

Production= 870 unit

8,200 kilograms of the raw material was purchased for $6,888.

To calculate the material quantity variance, we need to use the following formula:

Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price

Standard quantity= 870*8= 6,960kg

Direct material quantity variance= (6,960 - 8,200)*0.8

Direct material quantity variance= $992 unfavorable

How many dollars does Johnson & Johnson make every 20 seconds?
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Johnson & Johnson make $51,433.28 every 20 seconds

Explanation:

<u><em>The complete question is</em></u>

I'm playing a riddle game thing and one of the questions is

"How many dollars does Johnson & Johnson make every 20 seconds?"

I found that they make 81.1 billion dollars yearly, but I have no clue how to get it to 20 seconds.

Remember that

1 year=365 days

1 day=24 hours

1 hour=60 minutes

1 minute=60 seconds

so

Convert year to seconds  

(365)(24)(60)(60)=31,536,000\ sec

1 billion=1,000 millions

1 billion=1*10^9

81.1 billion dollars=81.1*10^9 dollars

we have

81.1*10^{9} \frac{\$}{year}

Convert to $/sec

81.1*10^{9}\frac{\$}{year}=81.1*10^{9}/31,536,000=2,571.66\frac{\$}{sec}

Multiply by 20 sec

2,571.66(20)=\$51,433.28

therefore

Johnson & Johnson make $51,433.28 every 20 seconds
