Answer:

d) produce more guidebooks, because the next guidebook produced increases profit by $5.

Explanation:

A perfectly competitive industry is characterised by many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms. In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit.

Profit is maximised where marginal revenue/ price is equal to marginal cost.

In this question, marginal revenue ($35) is greater than marginal cost ($30), so, the firm isn't maximising profit and they should increase production.

A firm should shutdown when average variable cost is greater than price.

I hope my answer helps you

Juan Foods pays off a long-term debt in full. Which one of the following statements best describes the appropriate book-keeping
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

Debit long-term debt; Credit cash.

Explanation:

The Journal Entry is shown below:-

Long term Dr, XXXXXXXX

To Cash

(being long term is recorded)

Long-term debt is a liability which usually has a credit balance. Therefore, until the long-term debt is entirely repaid, the long-term debt account has to be debited to pay it off entirely from the account books. In another hand, the cash account has to be paid, because there is a cash outflow.

Nestlé of Switzerland is revisiting its cost of equity analysis. As a result of extraordinary actions by the Swiss Central​ Bank
jasenka [17]

Answer:

The numbers are missing, so I looked for similar questions to fill in the blanks:

Rf (Switzerland) = 0.54%

Rm (Switzerland) = 8.5%

Beta (Switzerland) = 0.919

Rm (global) = 9.06%

Beta (global) = 0.532

a. What is​ Nestlé's cost of equity based on the domestic portfolio for a Swiss​ investor?

Re (Switzerland) = Rf + [Beta x (Rm - Rf) = 0.54% + [0.919 x (8.5% - 0.54%)] = 0.54% + 7.32% = 7.86%

b. What is​ Nestlé's cost of equity based on a global portfolio for a Swiss​ investor?

Re (global) = Rf + [Beta x (Rm - Rf) = 0.54% + [0.532 x (9.06% - 0.54%)] = 0.54% + 4.53% = 5.07%
