1. most businesses that desire fewer customer probably fall between these categories:
- Those who do not have enough resource/employee to maintain the cutomers
- Those who sell rare collectibles

2. It really depended on the type of business. If the business focus on obtaining high-end/wealthy customers  and maintain highest quality of service, they may prefer lower amount of customers

At the end of the first month of operations, the Lamar Company's accountant prepared financial statements that showed the follow
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

Assets = $87,350

Liabilities = $30,450

Stockholders' Equity = $56,900

Net Income = $7,900

Explanation:

The correct amounts of assets, liabilities and stockholders' equity at month-end and net income for the month can be determined as follows:

Assets = Recorded asset value - Depreciation + Unbilled service revenue = $90,000 - $4,500 + $1,850 = $87,350

Liabilities = Recorded liabilities + Unpaid wages = 30,000 + 450 = $30,450

Stockholders' Equity = Recorded Stockholders' Equity - Depreciation + Unbilled service revenue - Unpaid wages = $60,000 - $4,500 + $1,850 - $450 = $56,900

Net Income = Recorded net income  - Depreciation + Unbilled service revenue - Unpaid wages = 11,000 - $4,500 + $1,850 - $450 = $7,900

Note that from the above calculations, we can obtain:

Liabilities + Stockholders' Equity = $30,450 + $56,900 = $87,350

This therefore confirms the accounting equation that:

Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders' Equity = $87,350

Elza [17]

The answer is marginal revenue (MR) curve above $22.

Explanation:

Jim and Lisa Groomers will maximize its accounting profit when taking it to 0 its economic profits when marginal revenue = marginal costs.

Economic profits are not the same as accounting profits because they include the opportunity costs of investing the money somewhere else. That is whythe long run firm is not able to make economic profits since as they exist, new competitors will enter the market. But in the case of the shoert run, the firms are able to make economic profit, but by doing so, they cannot maximize their accounting profit.

Economic profit = account profit = Opportunity profit

Opportunity cost are extra costs or benefitslost from choosing one activity or investment over another one.

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

Price willing to pay=$1105.94

Explanation:

Annual Coupon Payment=$1,000*0.08

Annual Coupon Payment=$80

Calculating Present Value (PV) of Par Value:

PV=\frac{FV}{(1+i)^{20}}

Where:

i is the rate of return.

FV is par value

PV=\frac{\$1000}{(1+0.07)^{20}}

PV= $258.419.

Calculating PV of annual Coupon Payment:

PV=A\frac{1-(1+i)^{-20}}{i}

i is the coupon rate

A is the annual Payment

PV=\$80\frac{1-(1+0.07)^{-20}}{0.07}

PV=$847.521

Price willing to pay= Present Value (PV) of Par Value+ PV of annual Coupon Payment

Price willing to pay=$258.419+$847.521

Price willing to pay=$1105.94

Today, you deposit $2,500 of cash in a savings account that earns 8.0% in annualized interest. One interest payment is received
Artemon [7]

Answer:

a. $173

Explanation:

The computation of the amount of interest earned in five years is shown below;

But before that following calculations need to be done

As we know that

Simple interest = Present value × rate of interest × time period

= $2,500 × 8% × 5

= $1,000

Now the future value is

Future value = Present value × (1 + rate of interest)^number of years

= $2,500 ×(1 + 8%)^5

= $2,500 × 1.4693280768

= $3,673

Now the compound interest is

Compound interest = Future value - Present value

= $3,673 - $2,500

= $1,173

Now interest on interest is

Interest on interest = Compound interest - Simple interest

= $1,173 - $1,000

= $173
