Answer:

If discount rate is 11.7% Project B should be accepted.

If discount rate is 13.5% both projects should be rejected

Explanation:

If the Net present value of Project A is higher than that of project B, we will accept project A and vice versa.

<u>Under 11.7% Discount Rate</u>

Net Present Value-Project A = -82000 + 34000 / 1.117  +  34000 / 1.117²  +   34000 / 1.117³  = $85.099

Net Present Value-Project B = -82000 + 115000 / 1.117³ = $516.029

Project B should be accepted as it has a higher NPV.

<u />

<u>Under 13.5% Discount Rate</u>

Net present Value-Project A = -82000 + 34000 / 1.135 + 34000 / 1.135² + 34000 / 1.135³   = - $2397.49

Net Present Value-Project B = -82000 + 115000 / 1.135³  = - $3347.91

Both projects should be rejected as both have negative NPVs

The broccoli market is perfectly competitive. This means that the price of broccoli is ________ than the price would be if the m
LiRa [457]

Answer:

Price is lower than ; Quantity is higher than Monopolistic Competition

Explanation:

Perfect Competition is a market form with many buyers & sellers, selling homogeneous products at constant prices. Having uniform prices, It has perfectly elastic horizontal demand (Average Revenue) curve, ie = Marginal Revenue curve. Equilibrium price is where MR = MC ; So price = MC. This leads to optimal quantity supplied in market

Monopolistically competitive is market form having many sellers, selling slightly differentiated products, at different prices. Their demand curve (AR curve) is usually downward sloping, lies above the MR curve. Market equilibrium quantity is determined at MR = MC. The corresponding price is determine as per higher demand (AR) curve. Price > MC implies less than optimal quantity supplied in markets

Hence : Broccoli would be lower priced & higher supplied in case of perfect competition market, relatively higher priced  & less supplied in case of monopolistic competition market.

madreJ [45]

Earnings per share (EPS) refers to a financial metric that shows an indication of the amount of money that is made a company for each share of its stock.

Net income = $32,500

Weighted-average common shares outstanding = 10,000

Earnings per share = $32,500 / 10,000

Earnings per share = $3.25

Therefore, the company's earnings per share is $3.25.
