----Either similar or identical products --------Difficult entry

----Mutual interdependence

Explanation: An Oligopolistic market is a market characterized by few sellers of large firms who sell either similar or differentiated products. Here, Each firm is mutually interdependent as any action from any firms influences the actions of the rest of the competing firms , therefore decisions are made using strategic planning and consideration as competing firms are ready to counter react to any change in any new market action.

Examples of Oligopolistic firms are oil and gas firms, airlines, mass media etc

Year 0                                  = ($120,000)

Year 1 to Year 10                 =    $18,900

<em>NPV can be calculated from this summary using a financial calculator as :</em>

<em>CF0 = ($120,000)</em>

<em>CF1  = $18,900</em>

<em>Nj     = 10</em>

<em>i       = 9 %</em>

<em>NPV =  ? </em>

<em>NPV = $1,293.73 or $1,294</em>

The Project is accepted only if it has a Positive NPV

A taxpayer, in the 25% bracket before considering the sale, sold for a gain of $10,000 a residential rental building, purchased
Jlenok [28]

Answer and Explanation:

The Residential properties are depreciated over 27.5 years

Then:

The total amount of depreciation is $15,635. We assume that the property is sold in 2015.

Therefore, depreciation will be allowed only for 5 years such that the annual depreciation will be $3127 for 5 years.

He saves $781.75 annually (0.25*$3127).

If he holds the property for 5 years and then sells it, his 5 years' worth of depreciation will have saved him $3908.75  and it a $10,000 gain taxed at a maximum of 15%

$10,000 gain taxed at a maximum of 25% (or 33% if the gain pushes the taxpayer into a higher tax bracket).

$10,000 gain taxed at a maximum of 25%

net income                   16045

Explanation:

traditional:

COGS

$12 tub / 30 ice cream cones = $0.40

+ 0.25 ice cream cones

total per unit 0.65

8,700 x 0.65 = 5655

Gross profit: sales revenue less COGS

then, we subtract the rent expense, depreicaiton expense and operatign expenses to get net income.

contribution the variable cost will be subtracted from the sales revenues

that will include the 75% of the operating expenses

The difference between sales revenue and variable cost is called contribution margin.
