Answer:
a. the portion of its marginal cost curve that lies above the AVC
Explanation:
In short run, a perfectly competitive produces as long as its price is above its AVC, so revenues can cover total variable cost. If price is below AVC, the firm has to shut down. Since such a firm maximizes profit by equating Price with MC, this condition means that firm's supply curve is its MC curve lying above the (minimum point of) AVC curve.
Answer:
Equilibrium quantity: 145
Equilibrium price: $140
Explanation:
In order to find the answer, first we determine the current difference between quantity supplied and quantity demanded.
Quantity supplied - quantity demanded = difference
125 - 165 = -40
So we have a shortage of -40 units.
We have the information that a $1 increase in price increases supply by 2, and decreases demand by 2. Thus, in order to close the shortage, we need a $10 price increase, because this will raise supply by 20 units, and lower demand by 20 units as well, bringing the 40 gap to 0.
For this reason, the equilibrium quantity is 145 units, and the equilibrium price is $140.
Answer:
Faldo Corp
Customers are paying late by 6.5 days (51.5 - 45)
Explanation:
DSO = Accounts Receivable/Sales last year * 365 days
= $60,000/$425,000 * 365
= 51.5 days
Customers are paying late by 6.5 days (51.5 - 45)
b) Faldo Corp's Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) is an estimate of the number of days it takes Faldo to collect its outstanding accounts receivable. This means that DSO measures how long it takes Faldo's customers to pay an invoice. Faldo can calculate its DSO by dividing the total accounts receivables of last year by the total credit sales of last year. This is then multiplied by 365 days.
