Answer:

The correct answer is: enter the market; exit the market.

Explanation:

In a perfectly competitive market, there is no restriction on entry and exit of firms. So profits will attract other potential firms to join the market. And when the existing firm incurs losses it will cause them to stop operating and exit the market.  

Because of this, the firms in competitive settings are motivated to produce at a low cost and they come up with new ideas to please customers so that they earn a profit.

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

D. $4,000

Explanation:

For Anderson Antiques the following have been given

Opening balance= $4,000

Cash receipts (inflow)= $365,000

Cash disbursed (outflow)= $370,000

Desired reserve= $3,000

So cash at end of day= Opening balance + cash inflow - cash outflow

= 4,000+ 365,000- 370,000

= - 1,000

Remember we want a cash reserve of $3,000 so we take it out of closing balance

Final figure= -1,000-3000= -$4,000

So shortfall of $4,000

​Lydia, a minor, charges the cost of a smartphone at a Mobile Devices & Minutes store. Two nights later, Lydia loses the pho
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

A)​ if it is deemed a necessary good

Explanation:

Minors are not usually bound by a contract, and most of the time they can avoid liability under a contract. Minors can only sign a valid contract if it includes something that is essential for them. Medicines, food and medical services are the only things that are usually considered essential for a minor.

So the store has to prove that selling her the cell phone was a necessity, and something essential for her. It is possible to prove that it was a necessity, but it is something very difficult to do.

But the fact that the contract is not valid doesn't mean that Lydia can do whatever she wants. Her parents are responsible for returning the cell phone or since she lost it, they are responsible for paying it.

natulia [17]

Answer:

Please see below

Explanation:

In order to calculate the operating cash flow, we will get the value of net income. The income statement is calculated as;

Sales

$125,000

Less :

Costs

($59,000)

Depreciation

($12,800)

EBIT

$53,200

Less tax 35%

($18,620)

Net income

$34,580

1. Using the tax shield method

OCF = (Sales - Costs)(1 - Tax) + Tax(Depreciation)

OCF = ($125,000 - $59,000)(1 - 35%) + 35%($12,800)

OCF = ($66,000)(0.65) + $4,480

OCF = $42,900 + $4,480

OCF = 47,380

2. Using the financial calculation

OCF = EBIT + Depreciation - Taxes

OCF = $53,200 + $12,800 - $18,620

OCF = $47,380

3. Using the top down approach

OCF = Sales - Costs - Taxes

OCF = $125,000 - $59,000 - $18,620

OCF = $47,380

4. Using the bottom up approach

OCF = Net income + Depreciation

OCF = $34,580 + $12,800

OCF = $47,380
