A firm has sales of $1.8 million, and 20 percent of the sales are for cash. The year-end accounts receivable balance is $225,000
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

The average collection period is 56.25 days

Explanation:

The average collection period is the number of days' sales in receivables and calculated by using following formula:

The number of days' sales in receivables = 360/Accounts receivable turnover ratio

Accounts Receivable Turnover = Net Credit Sales/Accounts Receivable

Net Credit sales = Total Sales - the sales are for cash = $1,800,000 - 20% x $1,800,000 = $1,440,000

Accounts Receivable Turnover = $1,440,000/$225,000 = 6.4 times

The number of days' sales in receivables = 360/6.4 = 56.25 days

explain the difference between a change in quantity demanded and a change in demand. Provide a real world example of a factor th
Zina [86]

Answer:

A change in quantity demanded is caused by a change in price only. That is, when price rises quantity demanded falls vise versa

A change in demand occurs when there is a shift in the demand caused by a change in other determinates of demand other than price such as change in income, change in taste and fashion, demographic changes etc.

Explanation:

Real word example of change in demand :

Changing Tastes or Preferences

From 1990 to 2020, the per-person consumption of chicken by Americans rose from 48 pounds per year to 85 pounds per year, and consumption of beef fell from 77 pounds per year to 54 pounds per year, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). Changes like these are largely due to movements in taste, which change the quantity of a good demanded at every price: that is, they shift the demand curve for that good, rightward for chicken and leftward for beef.

Simply put it this way> Change in quantity demanded : Price change, quantity demanded change

Change in Demand: Price doesn't change but quantity demanded changes as a result of change in other determinates of demand examples the change in preference

morpeh [17]

Answer:

Statement true for Imperfect Competition Markets

Explanation:

Marginal Revenue Product is additional revenue due to hiring of additional input, it is product of marginal product & marginal revenue = MP x MR

Value Marginal Product is money value of additional production with additional input, product of marginal product (MP) & price (AR), = MP x AR

Input demand curves are derived demand curves, derived from demand of final goods. In perfect competition, demand is perfectly inelastic & horizontal, AR = MR, so MRP = VMP in this case. In imperfect competition market (oligopoly, monopoly etc) - MR < AR, so MRP < VMP in this case.
