Business
1 answer:
Nastasia [14]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

D : variable expenses of the eliminated segment will be eliminated.

Explanation:

When a segment is closed, then the variable expenses will not incur as no manufacturing will be done now, although certain fixed expenses cannot be ignored as these expenses will be occurred no matter if the production is done or not, like common rent for building.

That includes different segments also.

As the efforts of labor will move from that segment to another, that is more profitable segments, there will be increase in net income, also that the variable expenses will be avoided, because of no production.

Which two lines intersect at level of output the firm is supplying if that business is earning zero economic profits?
IgorC [24]

The average cost curve and the variable revenue curve are two lines which intersect at level of output when the firm is supplying and that business is earning zero economic profits.

If the price which the  firm is charging from customer is higher than its average cost of production for the quantity of the goods produced, then the firm will earn profits to a large extent.

Conversely, if the price which is charged by the firm is lower than its average cost of production, the firm will suffer losses.

Thus when the cost is equal to the revenue of the firm it means there is no profit at all. At this level the average cost curve will intersect the revenue curve.

When goods are produced privately, but the cost of their purchase is paid for by the taxpayer or some other third party, a. cons
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

b. private producers of such goods will have little incentive to control costs and provide them at low prices

Explanation:

Externality is a situation where the production activities of market participants (either producers or consumers) have an effect on third parties not involved in production.

Externality is a form of market inefficiency.

Negative externality is when goods are produced privately, but the cost of their purchase is paid for by the taxpayer or some other third party.

When negative externality occurs, producers have little incentive to reduce cost because they don't bear the total brunt of their activities. This is why activities that generate negative externality are over produced.

Government needs to step in to control this problem. They can either impose tax on producers or regulate their activities.

Pollution is an example of negative externality.

A chain of video stores sells three different brands of DVD players. Of its DVD player sales, 50% are brand 1 (the least expensi
slava [35]

Answer: 60.98%

Explanation:

Probability that it is a brand 1 DVD player that needs repair work = Probability of brand 1 DVD needing repairs / Probability that a DVD player will need fixing while under warranty

Probability of brand 1 DVD needing repairs = Brand 1 sales percentage * Percentage of brand 1 needed repair

= 50% * 25%

= 12.5%

Probability that a DVD player will need fixing while under warranty = (50%* 25%) + (30% * 20%) + (20% * 10%)

= 20.5%

Probability that it is a brand 1 DVD player that needs repair work = 12.5% / 20.5%

= 60.98%
