PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

a)

P 175

Q = 250

Profit6,250

b)

P 325

Q = 875

Profit 153,125

c)

Q = 1200

P = 260

Profit = 287,000

Explanation:

It maximize profit at MR = MC

MR = 200 - 0.2Q

MC = 150

150 = 200-0.2Q

Q = 50/0.2 = Q = 250

Price:

250 = 2000 - 10P

P = 1750/10 = 175

Profit: revenue - cost

$175 x 250 session - $150 per session = 6,250

At new functions:

150 = 500-0.4Q

Q = 350 / 0.4 = 875

Price:

875 = 2,500 - 5P

P = (2500-875)/5= 325

Profit

(325 - 150) * 875 = 153,125

If cost changes:

cost: 1000 + 20Q

marginal cost: 20

20 = 500 - 0.4Q

Q = 480 / 0.4 = 1,200

Price:

1,200 = 2500 - 5P

P = 1300/5 = 260

Profit

(260 - 20)Q - 1,000 = 287,000

Brut [27]

Answer:

There are two ways in which Return on Assets can be calculated depending on whether we consider Total assets at year-end or average total assets.

$Return on Assets = \frac{Net Income}{Total Assets at year end}$ 1

or

$Return on Assets = \frac{Net Income}{Average Assets}$ 2

Substituting the values in equation 1 we get,

$Return on Assets = \frac{25500}{316000}$

$Return on Assets = 0.080696203 or 8.07%$

Substituting values in equation 2 we get,

$Return on Assets = \frac{Net Income}{Average Assets}$

$Return on Assets = \frac{Net Income}{\frac{Assets at beginning + Assets at year end}{2}}$

$Return on Assets = \frac{25500}{\frac{216000 + 316000}{2}}$

$Return on Assets = \frac{25500}{266000}$

$Return on Assets = 0.095864662 or 9.58%$

Should underperforming restaurants be closed or sold?

crimeas [40]

Answer:

sold

Explanation:

Underperforming restaurants are those restaurants which does not perform well. The restaurant does not run properly and no people or less people visits the restaurant for eating.

This can be due to several factors. The restaurant's location may not be good, the restaurant may not provide good quality and tasty food, or people might not find their required menu in that restaurant. All these factors leads to less people visiting the restaurant and less revenue generation.

In such a case, the owner of the restaurant must sell the restaurant to some other party so that he does not undergo any losses. By selling the property he will get some amount of his investment which he could utilize in his further projects.

Also by selling the restaurant, the employees of that restaurant will not go out of job and can feed their family.

So, the restaurant should be sold.
