Complete Question:
Akram owns a small farm.He employs 80 workers in the field and has recently hired a manager to help him manage the farm. The income of the business varies greatly during the year. The farm makes a small profit but Akram is ambitious. He wants to take over a neighbors farm and increase the range of crops he sells. He thinks that he needs long-term finance and plans to take out bank loan to pay for the takeover. He has already borrowed money to buy a new tractor. A friend has advised him to form a company and sell shares.
Requirement. Identity two types of short-term finance Akram could use when the farm income is low
Answer with its Explanation:
The two types of short term finances are as under:
- Merchant Cash Advance: It is also known as supplier payables but in fact it is actually an cash advance by supplier to promote its sales by allowing credit for a short term. It doesn't what level of profits the company is earning, the supplier always allow small period for payment of its goods.
- Invoice Financing: It helps the company borrow money from money lenders (mostly banks) against the debtors accounts. This is usually a short term loan with option to expand both time and money if the company has proven to growth and better credit control. The invoice finacing doesn't effect the borrowings in short term if the business profits are low because for qualifying for such loan the company must have better cash postion. Though higher profits might help in securing the short term loan by using invoice financing but cash generation is the key requirement here.

Answer: a) an increase in the Equilibrium price of "regular" cars.
Explanation:
It is stated that the automobile companies use their inputs to make either the <em>hybrid cars</em> or the <em>regular cars</em>.
If the price of the <em>Hybrid cars</em> rises sharply, Automobile companies will make more <em>Hybrid cars</em> so as to take advantage of the situation and make more profit.
This would reduce the amount of inputs that they have available for <em>regular cars</em> and so they will make less <em>regular cars. </em>
As this supply of <em>regular cars</em> decreases,the supply curve will shift to the left and the price will increase to cater for this reduction in supply.
Answer:
break even point in units = 2,667
break even point in $ = $33,338
Explanation:
The break even point marks the point where a company is able to cover all its expenses. At this point the company is not losing money, but it is not making a profit either.
break even point in units = total fixed costs / contribution margin
- total fixed costs = $10,000
- contribution margin = $12.50 - ($4 + $4.75) = $12.50 - $8.75 = $3.75
break even point in units = $10,000 / $3.75 = 2,666.67 ≈ 2,667 units
break even point in $ = 2,667 units x $12.50 per unit = $33,337.50 ≈ $33,338
