Answer:
The correct answer is B.
Explanation:
Capital requirement, also sometimes called regulatory capital, means the standard requirement required of banks and other institutions where funds are deposited, a requirement that determines the maximum amount of capital required that the entity must maintain as a proportion of a certain level of assets according to the regulations of regulatory agencies such as the Bank for International Settlements, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the Federal Reserve Council. These capital requirements are imposed to ensure that these institutions do not participate or maintain investments that can increase their risk of bankruptcy and that they have sufficient capital to maintain their operational losses while still being able to take care of new withdrawals.
Answer:
A. 3,789
B. 100%
C.5,000
Explanation:
(a) Total market ($'000) = 310 + 725 + 405 = 1,440
Firm 1 share = 310 / 1,440 x 100 = 21.53%
Firm 2 share = 725 / 1,440 x 100 = 50.35%
Firm 3 share = 405 / 1,440 x 100 = 28.12%
HHI = (21.53)2 + (50.35)2 + (28.12)2 = 3,789
(b) Since there are only 3 firms in market, therefore the four-firms concentration ratio will be 100% b
(c) Total revenue share of the two firms = (310 + 405) / 1440 x 100 = 49.65%
Post-merger HHI = (49.65)2 + (50.35)2 = 5,000
Yes. If the guideline considers any post-merger HHI above 1800 as highly concentrated market, this merger will be probably attempt to block a horizontal merger between two firms with sales.
Answer: B. Work-In-Process Inventory XXX Wages Payable XXX
Explanation:
The method of accounting for Direct labor during production is to apportion it to Work in Process inventory because as a direct cost, it should form a part of the cost of producing the good.
The Work in Process Inventory will therefore be debited to reflect an increase and the Wages Payable will be credited to reflect that the wages are a liability owed to workers.
Answer:
C) An increase in the price of tennis racquets
Explanation:
If tennis racquets become more expensive, the demand for them will decline, and people will try to supply this need with substitutes, for example, lacrosse raquets. The reason for this is that the classical supply and demand model tells us that demand and price are inversely correlated: if the price goes up, demand goes down, and viceversa.
