Prestige pricing is a unique pricing method involving products which would actually generate less overall profit at lower prices than higher prices. As long as the product is views by the public as being "prestigious," it will be in greater demand at the higher price. If the price were lowered, the public opinion of the product would be lower and the product would be seen as less desirable. This results in the product selling less at the lower price than at the higher price.

Answer: d. Kamal loses any surplus he had.

Explanation:

The Consumer Surplus is defined as the difference between what a customer is willing to pay for a good minus the price of the good/ the price they pay.

Kamal was willing to pay $320 and the price was initially $300 which meant that he had a surplus of $20. The price has now increased to $320 which is the amount he is willing to pay so there is no longer a surplus. Kamal loses any surplus he had.

1. What's the main reason our culture has normalized credit cards over the past 60 years? What can we do to change the normaliza
Alexandra [31]

Our culture has become accustomed to debt mainly because the capitalist system in which we find ourselves favors the management of loans for the acquisition of goods and services.

These, due to their cost, are difficult or impossible to access through cash payments without any type of installment or ease of payment.

Therefore, credit cards are ways of acquiring debt to finance certain consumption, which is why they have become a financial tool that is totally socially accepted.

Silky Inc., which sells custom silk ties designed by famous people, faces a demand curve of Q = 150 – 0.2P, where Q is measured
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

The production level that maximizes Silky's profit is 5000 ties.

Explanation:

Hi

First of all, as we have Q(P)=150-0.2P, we need to transcript it as price in function of the quantity so

P(Q)=\frac{150-Q}{0.2}=750-5Q

Then we need to find income function that is I(Q)=Q*P(Q)=750Q-5Q^{2}.  After derivate it I'(Q)=750-10Q.

The optimum level is when we have MC=I'(Q), therefore,

5Q=750-10Q, as we clear it for Q we find that

Q=\frac{750}{15}=50, finally as we have that Q is measured in hundreds of ties, the production level that maximizes Silky's profit is 5000 ties.

A firm sells a product in a purely competitive market. The marginal cost of the product at the current output of 200 units is $4
posledela

Answer:

D. Should Shut Down

Explanation:

A perfect competition firm is at profit maximising equilibrium where : Marginal Revenue [Price] = Marginal Cost .

If MR > MC : Firm's additional production is profitable, it tends to increase production. If MR < MC : Firm's additional production is loss making, it tends to decrease production.

However, If firm's Price i.e MR < Average Variable Cost : The firm's per unit price is even unable to cover it's per unit average variable cost. This situation is referred to as 'Shut Down' point & firm should close down its production in the case.

Given : MR = P = 3 ; MC = 4 ; AVC = 3.5 . The firm's price P (3) is not only lesser by its Marginal Cost MC (4), to decrease production ; but also lesser than its Average Variable Cost AVC (3.5) . So, the firm should shut down.

When originally purchased, a vehicle costing $23,040 had an estimated useful life of 8 years and an estimated salvage value of $
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

$5,360

(not given in the options)

Explanation:

Depreciation is the systematic allocation of cost to an asset based on estimates. It is given as

Depreciation = (cost - salvage value)/useful life

When originally purchased, a vehicle costing $23,040 had an estimated useful life of 8 years and an estimated salvage value of $1,600

Annual depreciation = ($23,040 - $1,600)/8

= $2,680

After 4 years

Accumulated depreciation = 4 × $2,680

= $10,720

The net book value then

= $23,040 - $10,720

= $12,320  

Since the asset's total estimated useful life was revised from 8 years to 6 years and there was no change in the estimated salvage value

New depreciation = ($12,320  - $1,600)/2

= $5,360

The depreciation expense in year 5 equals $5,360
