Why is the largest possible value of the Herfindahl index 10,000 ?

a. An index of 10,000 corresponds to 100 firms with a 1% market share each

b. An industry with an index higher than 10,000 is automatically regulated by the Justice Department

c. An index of 10,000 corresponds to a monopoly firm with 100% market share

HHI index = 60² + 20² + 20² = 4400

If one of the firms leaves the industry, the market share would be distributed between the two firms and this would cause the HHI index to increase as firm's concentration would increase

If only one firm operates in the industry, its market share would be 100% and its HHI index would be 100² = 10,000. For an industry to exist there has to be at least one firm operating in the industry,

Olin [163]

Answer:

$3,000

Explanation:

Warranty expense is an obligation on the business because business is liable to accept the claims of warranty. A estimated percentage of warranty expense is charges as an expense in each period.

Total Sales = $500 x 6,000 units = $3,000,000

Warranty Expense for the year = Sales units x 3% x warranty cost per unit

Warranty Expense for the year = 6,000 x 3% x $50 = $9,000

Recognised warranty cost in the year = 120 units x $50 = $6,000

Accrued Warranty expense = $9,000 - $6,000 = $3,000

devlian [24]

Answer:

Margin of safety= 9,000 units

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Each bottle sells for 3.60.

Variable unit costs are as follows:

Acrylic base- .75

Pigments- .38

Other ingredients- .35

Bottle, packing material- 1.15

Selling commission- .25

Fixed overhead costs are 12000 per year. Fixed selling and administrative costs are 6720 per year. Chromatics sold 35000 bottles last year.

First, we need to calculate the variable cost per unit and total fixed costs:

Unitary variable cost= 0.75 + 0.38 + 0.35 + 1.15 + 0.25= $2.88

Total fixed costs= fixed overhead + fixed selling and administrative= 12,000 + 6,720= 18,720

Now, we can calculate the break-even point in units:

Break-even point= fixed costs/ contribution margin

Break-even point= 18,720 / (3.6 - 2.88)= 26,000 units

Margin of safety ratio= (current sales level - break-even point)

Margin of safety ratio= 35,000 - 26,000= 9,000 units
