The answer to the question is (B) a need for firms to consider the economic impact of their existence and/or departure from a particular location.

When deciding to move from a location, firms tend to only consider the benefit that the company gains by making this decision, especially in terms of revenue or profit. Oftentimes, the company does not consider how the communities living around the company – which often also includes the workers – are impacted by this decision.

Find the present value of $19,000 in 11 months at 5.1% interest
dem82 [27]

Answer:

$19,886.396

Explanation:

Given :

Interest rate = 5.1% = 5.1

Principal = $19000

Period = 11 months = (11/12)year

The present value of 19000 in 11 months at 5.1% interest Can be obtained using the relation:

PV = P(1 + r)^n

PV = 19000(1 + 0.051)^(11/12)

PV = 19000(1.051)^(11/12)

PV = 19000 * 1.0466524

PV = 19886.396

Hence, the present value is $19,886.396

Kiddie World uses a periodic inventory system and the retail inventory method to estimate ending inventory and cost of goods sol
Levart [38]

Answer:

Ending inventory is $424,045

Cost of goods sold is $889,955

Explanation:

Retail Inventory method is used to estimate the value of inventory using retail price of the unit of inventory.

As per given data

                                                   Cost           Retail

Beginning inventory               $370,000   $515,000

Net purchases                        $890,000   $ 1,280,000

Freight-in                                $54,000

Net markups                                                $55,000

Net markdowns                                           $25,000

Net sales                                                      $1,235,000

Cost of Purchase = 890,000 + 54,000 = $944,000

Retail Price of Purchases = Net Purchases Retail + ( Net Markup ) = $1280,000 + ( 55,000 - 25,000 ) = 1,310,000

Cost to retail Percentage = ( $944,000 / $1,310,000 ) x 100 = 72.06%

Closing Inventory = Purchases + Net Markup - Sales = $1,280,000 + ( $944,000 / $1,310,000 ) - $1,235,000 = $75,000

                                      Retail           Cost

Beginning inventory  $515,000   $370,000

Net purchases           <u>$75,000</u>     <u> $54,045</u>  ( $75,000 x 72.06% )

Ending Inventory       <u>$590,000</u>   <u>$424,045</u>

Closing Inventory = Opening + Purchases - Closing = $370,000 + ( 890,000 + 54,000 ) - 424,045 = $889,955

Suppose the market wage for cashiers increases from $7 per hour to $9 per hour.As a result, Pat, who is a cashier, now works fiv
Anton [14]

Answer:

Income

Explanation:

Suppose the market wage for cashiers increases from $7 per hour to $9 per hour. As a result, Pat, who is a cashier, now works five more hours per week. On the other hand Chris, who is also a cashier, now works five fewer hours per week.Chris's behavior illustrates the <u>Income</u> effect of a wage increase.

As the income increases, few individual prefer to work fewer hours as now they are able to maintain target by working fewer than at previous wage rate. These people prefer leisure over higher income and want to settle down with limited income. These people  may have a backward bending individual labour supply curve – they may choose to work fewer hours when the wage rate rises.

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

The point p should be located to 4.42 km far from the refinery

Explanation:

Minimum of these costs occurs when <em>x = 1/\sqrt{3}</em> , so <em>distance </em>should be <em>m</em> km to the east of the refinery.

<em>m = 5 - x </em>

<em>m = 5 - 1/\sqrt{3}</em>

<em />

m = 4.42 km
