g Perfection purchased a 25% stake in Satisfactory for $486,000 on Jan 2, 2021. On Jan 1, 2021, Satisfactory had a book value of
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

The value that Perfection records in it's books on Jan 2, 2021 related to its investment in Satisfactory is:

$486,000.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Net asset value of Satisfactory = $1,944,000 on acquisition date

Stake purchased by Perfection = 25%

25% of the net asset value of Satisfactory = $486,000 ($1,944,000 * 25%)

b) There is no goodwill arising from the investment in Satisfactory.  The equity method will be used to account for the investment in the Satisfactory.  The Equity Method involves recording the investment in an associated company like Satisfactory when Perfection's ownership interest in Satisfactory is valued at 20–50% of the net assets.

You are considering taking out one of two loans. Loan R has a principal of $17,550, an interest rate of 5. 32% (compounded month
Evgesh-ka [11]

The difference between the monthly payment of R and S is equal to $48.53 by following the compound interest formula. Thus, Loan R's monthly loan amount is greater than Loan S.

<h3>What is a Compound interest loan?</h3>

Combined interest (or compound interest) is the loan interest or deposit calculated based on both the original interest and accrued interest from earlier periods.

\rm\,For\,R\\\\P = \$\,17,550\\r\,= 5.32\%\\Time\,= n= 7\,years\\Amount\,paid= [P(1+\dfrac{r}{100\times12})^{n\times12} ]\\=[ 17,550 (1+\dfrac{5.32}{100\times12})^{7\times12} ]\\= [ 17,550 (\dfrac{12.0532}{12})^{84} ]\\\\=  [ 17,550 (1.00443^{84} ]\\\\= \$ 25,440.48\\\\Total\,monthly\,payment = \rm\,\dfrac{25,440.48}{84}\\\\= \$\, $302.86\\\\

\rm\,For\,S =\\\\P=\,\$ 15,925\\r\,= 6.07\%\\T=n= 9\,years\\\\Amount\,paid\,= [P(1+\dfrac{r}{100\times12})^{n\times12} ]\\\\\= [15,925(1+\dfrac{0.0607}{12})^{9\times12} ]\\\\\\= [15,925(1+\dfrac{0.0607}{12})^{108} ]\\\\=[15,925(1.7247.84)} ]\\\\\= \$27,467.19\\\\Total\,monthly\,payment =\dfrac{\rm\,\$\,27,469.19}{108}\\\\= \$ 254.326\\\\

The difference between the monthly payment of R and S is equal to $48.53.

Hence, Loan R's monthly payment is greater than the loan's monthly payment by $48.53

Explain how firms that compete in the four different market structures determine profitability.
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Price is determined by the forces of market demand and market supply. A firm sells its output at the given price. Therefore, a firm under perfect competition is a price taker, not a price maker.

Perfect competition is a form of market where there is a large number of buyers and sellers of a commodity. A homogeneous product is sold and its price is determined by the forces of supply and demand.

The elasticity of demand for the firm's demand =  Infinite Because of free entry and exit, firms, in the long run, earn only normal profits (TR = TC or AR = AC). In the extra normal profits earned, new firms will join the industry. Market supply will increase. The market price will fall. Extra normal profits will be wiped out. In case of extra normal losses, some of the existing firms will leave the industry. Market supply will decrease. The market price will increase. Extra normal losses will be wiped out.

(A). Normal profits (TR = TC or AR = AC)

(B). Extra normal profits ( TR>TC or AR>AC)

(C).  Extra normal losses (TR<TC or AR <AC)

In economics, a market is a system, institution, process, social relationship, or infrastructure configuration in which parties exchange ideas. Although parties can exchange goods and services through barter, most markets rely on sellers offering goods and services (including labor) to buyers in exchange for money.

A market can be described as the process by which prices for goods and services are determined. Markets facilitate trade and enable the distribution and allocation of resources in society. Marketplaces allow the valuation and pricing of any tradeable item. Markets can arise more or less spontaneously or be consciously constructed by people

maxonik [38]

Answer:

Malcolm is a professional writer. He has already published many best-sellers. One of his friends expressed interest in knowing more about his writing process, so Malcolm showed his friend a few of his first drafts. The friend observed that the drafts were nothing like the final book, and the writing seemed amateurish compared to Malcolm's published work. When asked about it, Malcolm said that it was the normal way of things. In this scenario, the following is the reason of this:

A) ​Malcolm would have revised his work many times before he was satisfied with it.

Explanation:

  • The option A is best reason because generally a writer doesn't break his or her flow while writing and that is what Malcolm would have done. After, he would have revised his work many times until he was satisfied.
  • The option B is not correct as it is not possible to change the book of a writer entirely by the publishing company.
  • The option C is also incorrect as the drafts were not long and cohesive because his friend found the draft amateurish but not perfect.
  • The option D is incorrect as it is not true that writers only create first draft and other people produce all other subsequent drafts.
