Answer:
Is relatively independent; an oligopoly is interdependent.
Explanation:
An oligopoly can be defined as a market structure comprising of a small number of firms (sellers) offering identical or similar products, wherein none can limit the significant influence of others.
Hence, it is a market structure that is distinguished by several characteristics, one of which is either similar or identical products and dominance by few firms.
The characteristics of an oligopolistic market structure are;
I. Mutual interdependence between the firms.
II. Market control by many small firms.
III. Difficult entry to new firms.
One of the main differences between an oligopolistic firm and a monopolistically competitive firm is that a monopolistically competitive firm is relatively independent; an oligopoly is interdependent.
Answer:
a.
9 recovery period years class
b.
$8,889 per year
Explanation:
a.
Buses are 9 years recovery period class , in which it is depreciated using historical method and it has 5 years GDS class life.
b.
Straight Line depreciation is a method of depreciation in which the cost of the asset net of residual value is divided over useful life.
We will depreciate this asset for only 9 years because it has 9 years class, even it will be kept for 10 years but the depreciation charged for 9 years.
Depreciation rate = ( Cost - Salvage Value ) / useful life = ($95,000 - $15,000) / 9 = $8,889
Depreciation charged in 2018 = $19,500
The value of the best choice is called ' Opportunity Cost' in economics.
Answer:
$63,852
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
a) PV of payments is
= $23,500 × (1.07^30 - 1) ÷ (0.07 × 1.07^30)
= $2,91,612
b) The Loan PV of payments is $3,00,000
c) And, the Balloon payment required is
= (Borrowed amount - loan PV payments) × (1 + rate of interest)^number of years
= ($300,000 - $291,612) × 1.07^30
= $63,852
