The Starfire Coffee chain was the only coffee-shop chain and meeting place in many American cities for more than 12 years. Peopl

e paid $5 for a mug of peppermint coffee and the experience of sitting in front of a roaring fire, chatting with friends. Twelve years after Starfire's appearance, a similar coffee-shop chain, Reindeer Brews, entered the marketplace. Reindeer charges $3 for a mug of hot cocoa and a similar community experience.
How would you characterize this scenario?

- Non-price competition in a purely competitive market
- Price competition in a monopolistically competitive market
- Price competition in a purely competitive market

Answer: In this particular case we can reason that this scenario represents <em><u>monopolistic-ally competitive market.</u></em>

Both coffee house  are offering a similar product and commodity, with only little differentiation in their design.

whereas Reindeer provided consumer with a mug of hot cocoa and a similar community experience.

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

Variable  cost per unit = $1.5  per unit

Fixed cost = $14,558

Explanation:

Variable cost per unit

= cost at high activity - cost at low activity/High activity -low activity

=$(74,798- $41,663) / (40,160 -18,070) units

= $1.5  per unit

Fixed cost

Total fixed cost = cost at high activity - ( vc per unit × high activity)

= 74,798 - (1.5  × 40,160)

= $14,558

Variable  cost per unit = $1.5  per unit

Fixed cost = $14,558

Zanzabum

Answer:

The number of units that must be sold is A. 6,540 units

Explanation:

The number of units must be sold to meet the target profit figure are calculated by using following formula:

The number of units must be sold = (Total fixed cost + Targeted profit) / Contribution margin per unit.

Contribution margin per unit = Sales price per unit – Variable cost per unit = $154 - $99 = $55

The number of units must be sold = ($313,500 + $46,200)/$55 = 6,540 units

A financial institution has entered into an interest rate swap with company X. Under the terms of the swap, it receives 10% per
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

The loss of the financial institution is $413,000

Explanation:

Let's say that after 3 years the financial institution will receive:

0.5 * 10% of $10million

= 0.5 * 0.1 * 10000000

= $500,000

Then, they will pay 0.5 * 9% of $10M

= 0.5 * 0.09 * 10000000

= $450,000

Therefore, their immediate loss would be $500000 - $450000

= $50000.

Let's assume that forward rates are realized to value the rest of the swap.

The forward rates = 8% per annum.

Therefore, the remaining cash flows are assumed that floating payment is

0.5*0.08*10000000 =

$400,000

Received net payment would be:

500,000-400,000= $100,000. The total cost of default is therefore the cost of foregoing the following cash flows:

Year 3=$50,000

Year 3.5=$100,000

Year 4 = $100,000

Year 4.5= $100,000

Year 5 = $100,000

Discounting these cash flows to year 3 at 4% per six months, the cost of default would be $413,000

On March 1, 2021, Bearcat lends an employee $20,000. The employee signs a note requiring principal and interest at 9% to be paid
almond37 [142]

Answer:

Debit interest receivable $1,500

Credit interest revenue $1,500

Explanation:

Adjust entries are used in accounting to record accrued revenue or expense at the end of an accounting period.

On March 1, 2021, Bearcat lends an employee $20,000. The employee signs a note requiring principal and interest at 9% to be paid on February 28, 2022.

We are to calculate the adjustment at December 31, 2021.

We need to calculate interest accrued at year end. The loan would have stayed for 10 months.

Interest= principal* rate* time

Interest= 20,000* 0.09* (10/12)

Interest = $1,500

So we will debit interest receivable for $1,500 and credit interest revenue.
