term fixed price contract to build an office tower for $10,000,000. In the first year of the contract Tullis incurs $3,000,000

almond37 [142]

Answer: $750,000

Explanation:

Given that,

Fixed price contract = $10,000,000

Cost incurred in the first year = $3,000,000

Remaining costs to complete = $5,000,000

Tullis billed = $4,000,000 in year 1

Collected by the end of the year = $3,500,000

Percentage of work completed = $\frac{Expenditures\ Incurred\ from\ Inception\ to\ Date}{Total\ Estimated\ Costs\ for\ the\ Contract}$

= $\frac{3}{8} \times 100percent$

= 37.5%

Revenue recognized = 37.5% of $10,000,000

= $3,750,000

Income recognized = Revenue recognized - Cost incurred in the first year

= $3,750,000 - $3,000,000

= $750,000

For example, if a firm reduces the price of its goods, this creates a price war and other firms to start reducing their price to match the lower price. And if another firm increases its price, consumers will switch to competitors

Suppose Antonio and Caroline are playing a game in which both must simultaneously choose the action Left or Right. The payoff ma

ladessa [460]

Answer:

Caroline to choose right

Antonio chooses left and Caroline chooses right.

Explanation:

Interpreting the payoff matrix:

Both choose right:

Antonio receives 3, Caroline receives 7

Both choose left:

Antonio receives 4, Carolina receives 6

Caroline chooses left, Antonio chooses right:

Antonio receives 7, Caroline receives 5

Caroline chooses right, Antonio chooses left:

Antonio receives 6, Caroline receives 8

As we can see, Antonio only has a better payoff then Caroline if she chooses left and he chooses right. Therefore, the dominant strategy is for Caroline to choose right, this way she will always have the greater payoff.

If Antonio chooses right, the outcome may alter depending on the outcome, therefore it is not a Nash Equilibrium. However, if Antonio chooses left, no matter what Caroline chooses, she will have the greater payoff. At the same time, if Caroline chooses right, Antonio cannot change the outcome by changing his strategy. Therefore, the outcome reflecting the unique Nash equilibrium in this game is as follows: Antonio chooses left and Caroline chooses right.

Suppose that you buy a two-year 7.4% bond at its face value. a-1. What will be your total nominal return over the two years if i

Harman [31]

Answer: 15.35%

Explanation:

The total nominal return over the two years if inflation is 2.4% in the first year and 4.4% in the second year will be calculated thus:

= (1+Interest rate)² -1

= (1 + 7.4%) - 1

= (1 + 0.074)² - 1

= 1.074² - 1

= 1.153476 - 1

= 0.153476

= 15.35% over the two years
