Suppose that preferences over private consumption C and public goods G are such that these two goods are perfect substitutes, th

Temka [501]

Answer:

Please see explanation below.

Explanation:

Public goods are goods consumed collectively, they are provided for all members of a community,

no one can be excluded from their consumption. The consumption by one person does not decrease the consumption possibilities for others. Public goods are available for everybody without paying, and these goods cannot be rationed: they are either provided for the whole community, or for no one. Examples of public goods include the public lighting system, public roads, radio broadcasts, national defence, lighthouses, town pavements, etc.

Private goods, on the other hand, are goods consumed individually, and if a unit has been consumed by

someone, then no one else can also consume the same unit. Private goods are scarcely available, and consuming a unit will decrease the amount available for further consumption. Therefore consumers compete for private goods, i.e. private goods are rival in consumption. Consumers can consume them if they pay the price, non-payers are excluded from consumption.

In the first scenario, given that both the private good and public good are perfect substitutes, the optimum quantity produced by the government is at the point where marginal social cost is equal to the marginal social benefit. This optimum output is lower than that of the private firm because the price of public good is higher than price of private good (since marginal social cost > marginal private cost).

If b increases, that means consumers are willing to give up more units of public goods for one unit of the private good. Therefore, the quantity produced by the government will reduce.

For the second part of the question: C = aG, where a > 0.

This implies that equal or more units of the private good is consumed with a particular units of public good. The optimum output still remain at the point where marginal social cost is equal to marginal social benefit but this output level is lower than if the two goods were to be perfect substitutes.

Answer:

The dollar value of ending inventory is $7.500.000

Explanation:

To calculate the dollar value of ending inventory you need to use the next formula:

End inventory= (Beginning inventory + production - sales).$

In this case:

- Beginning inventory: 10.000 units

- January Production: 20.000 units

- Sales: 15.000 units

End inventory= 10000+20000-15000

End inventory= 15.000 units

Dollar value= 150000 . $500= $7.500.000

Sunset Travel Agency specializes in flights between Toronto and Jamaica. It books passengers on Hamilton Air. Sunset’s fixed cos

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

See the explanation below.

Explanation:

1 a. Calculate the number of tickets Sunset must sell each month to break even.

Selling price = 6% * $1,500 = $90 per ticket

Variable cost per unit = $43 per ticket

Contribution margin per unit = $90 – $43 = $47 per ticket

Fixed cost = $23,500

Break-even tickets per month = Fixed cost / Contribution margin per unit = $23,500 / $47 = 500 tickets

1 b. Calculate the number of tickets Sunset must sell each month to make a target operating income of $10,000 per month.

Number of tickets = (Fixed cost + Targeted profit) / Contribution margin per unit = ($23,500 + $10,000) / $47 = 712.77, or 713 tickets

2 a. Calculate the number of tickets Sunset must sell each month to break even.

Selling price = 6% * $1,500 = $90 per ticket

Variable cost per unit = $40 per ticket

Contribution margin per unit = $90 – $40 = $50 per ticket

Fixed cost = $23,500

Break-even tickets per month = Fixed cost / Contribution margin per unit = $23,500 / $50 = 470 tickets

2 b. Calculate the number of tickets Sunset must sell each month to make a target operating income of $10,000 per month.

Number of tickets = (Fixed cost + Targeted profit) / Contribution margin per unit = ($23,500 + $10,000) / $50 = 670 tickets

3 a. Calculate the number of tickets Sunset must sell each month to break even.

Selling price = $60 per ticket

Variable cost per unit = $40 per ticket

Contribution margin per unit = $60 – $40 = $20 per ticket

Fixed cost = $23,500

Break-even tickets per month = Fixed cost / Contribution margin per unit = $23,500 / $20 = 1,175 tickets

3 b. Calculate the number of tickets Sunset must sell each month to make a target operating income of $10,000 per month.

Number of tickets = (Fixed cost + Targeted profit) / Contribution margin per unit = ($23,500 + $10,000) / $20 = 1,675 tickets

Comment:

Due a fall in commission, there are appreciable increases in the break-even point and the number tickets that have to be sold to meet a targeted operating income of $10,000.

4 a. Calculate the number of tickets Sunset must sell each month to break even.

Selling price = $60 + $5 = $65 per ticket

Variable cost per unit = $40 per ticket

Contribution margin per unit = $65 – $40 = $25 per ticket

Fixed cost = $23,500

Break-even tickets per month = Fixed cost / Contribution margin per unit = $23,500 / $25 = 940 tickets

4 b. Calculate the number of tickets Sunset must sell each month to make a target operating income of $10,000 per month.

Number of tickets = (Fixed cost + Targeted profit) / Contribution margin per unit = ($23,500 + $10,000) / $25 = 1,340 tickets

Comment:

The $5 delivery fee brings about an increased contribution margin higher than before, which makes both the break-even point and the tickets sold to achieve operating income of $10,000 to fall.
