Tamiku [17]

Answer:

INCREASE the consumption of Pepsi and REDUCE the consumption of Hamburger

Explanation:

Based on the information given we were told that Bill uses his whole budget to purchase the following :

5 cans of Pepsi

3 Hamburgers per week

And the following were the price:

Pepsi costs $1 per can

Hamburger cost $2

Bill marginal utility:

Pepsi 4

Hamburgers 6

Based on the above details this means that Bill could increase his utility by INCREASING Pepsi consumption and REDUCING hamburger consumption reason been that 5 cans of Pepsi costs $1 per can which will gives us income of $5 ($5×1) while 3 Hamburgers per week cost $2 which will give us income of $6 ($3×2) which typically means that the Hamburgers has more income that Pepsi.

Secondly since the marginal utility for Pepsi is 4 while that of Hamburgers is 6 which means that Hamburgers has higher MARGINAL UTILITY than that of Pepsi because the consumption of Hamburgers is higher than the consumption of Pepsi.

Therefore the best thing that Bill could do in order to increase his Pepsi utility is for Bill to increase Pepsi consumption and reduce hamburger consumption.

Katen [24]

Answer:

Answer to this question is explained below in detail.

Explanation:

This question is not complete. This has two parts a) and b). Part a) is complete and b) is incomplete. I have written down the complete question and will try to answer completely.

a) Briefly describe the differences among international bond, bank and equity markets.

b) Would you support an MNC that favors financing through bonds issues or would you rather support one that favors financing through stock issues?

Solution:

a) We are asked to differentiate between international bond, bank and equity markets.

All three terms are related to raising funds, lending or borrowing to raise the capital for some government or for any company.

Let's start with International Bonds first.

International Bonds : In this globalized world, a company can raise its capital through getting debt in the form of international bonds from international institutions over the assets value of the company. For example: XYZ company has a asset value of 10 million dollars, so it can get international bonds accordingly.  

International Equity markets: Again due to interlinked world, companies and institutions all over the world can invest their funds in any company around the globe. And through equity markets companies can sell their shares to raise its capital depending upon the asset value of the company.

International Banks: International banks are international institutions which raise capital in particular country and have branches all over the world. It can lend funds to companies on particular interest rates. Furthermore, all those bonds are generated in these banks as well.

b) Supporting an MNC that favors financing through bonds issues or through equity markets or stock issues will depend on the debt/equity ratio of the company. If it is low, company should go for debt or bond issues. If it is high then it should opt for stock issues.

Answer:

treasury stock    382,000 debit

             cash                  382,000 credit

cash          342,500 debit

  treasury stock               274,000 credit

 additional paid-in TS       68,500 credit

cash          84,000 debit

  treasury stock                80,000 credit

 additional paid-in TS         4,000 credit

additional paid-in TS 72,500

Treasury Stock           28,000

<em>The Treasury Stock will be reported as a decrease to the equity.</em>

Explanation:

19,100 shares x $20 per share = 382,000

13,700 shares x $20 per share = 274,000

13,700 shares x $25 per share = 342,500

additional paid-in = 68,500

4,000 shares x $21 per share  =     84,000

4,000 shares x $20 per share =    (80,000)

          additional paid-in                   4,000

68,500 + 4,000 = 72,500 additional paid-in TS

TS 382,000 - 274,000 - 80,000 = 28,000
