Answer: $12,000
Explanation:
As no production has been started yet, no other costs have been incurred by Naples for the equipment other than the $12,000.
The lowest price that Tebit should offer therefore should be the price that the equipment was purchased for as the equipment has not not been used to produce anything and so has not incurred any variable costs or donated any incremental value that would decrease or increase its value.
Cost of machine = $1,000
=
= $1,492.11
)=
= $75.13
Total NPV = -1000+1492.11+75.13 = $567.24 ≈ $567
Answer: a) increase in the demand for Kindles.
Explanation: the substitution effect for substitute goods gives that, if the price of good A rises, the demand for good B rises. Since a substitute good is a good that can be used in place of another, they are goods that a consumer perceives as similar or are comparable, in such a way that having more of one good causes the consumer to desire less of the other good. From the viewpoint of price, and given that consumers always prefer to spend less in instances where two goods are substitutes, it then means that Kindle can be used and preferred in place of Nooks given that the price of Nooks had gone up. Therefore, increasing the price of Nooks causes a corresponding increase in the demand for Kindles.
I think the answer is E. both supply and demand would increase.
I think this because the decrease in making would lower the price of the golf clubs. Therefore making people more likely to buy (demand increasing). The supply would also increase also because with a higher demand, the people buying the golf clubs would cause their supply of golf clubs to increase.
