dybincka [34]

The parents would deposit $ 3150 on the second birthday.

Explanation:

The initial amount deposited on the first birthday- $ 3000

Incremental % for each year deposit- 5 %

Rate of Interest provided by the education savings account- 6%

The term for which they would be depositing- 18 years (until the baby turns of 18 years means 18 annual instalments)

The amount that parents would deposit on the second birthday-

The amount deposited by parents would be 5% more than the amount deposited by them on the previous birthday

Hence incremental amount would be 5% of 3000

(5/100) *3000= $ 150

The amount that would be deposited on 2nd birthday would be 3000+150= $ 3150

Selected operating data for two divisions of Outback Brewing, Ltd., of Australia are given below: Division Queensland New South
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

(1) 6%; 1.7; 10.20%

(2) 3%; 4; 12%

Explanation:

ROI = Margin × Turnover   (Note Margin in % and Turnover in Ratio)

Where,

Margin = Net operating income ÷ Sales  

Turnover = Sales ÷ Average operating assets

For Queensland:

Margin = 54,060 ÷ 901,000

            = 6% (approx)

Turnover = 901,000 ÷ 530,000

               = 1.7

ROI = 6% × 1.7

      = 10.20%

For New south wales:

Margin = 74,400 ÷ 2,480,000

            = 3% (approx)

Turnover = 2,480,000 ÷ 6,20,000

               = 4

ROI = 3% × 4

      = 12%

In a homogeneous-good Cornet model where each of the n firms has a constant marginal cost m and the market demand curve is p = a
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

Q=nq=\frac{n}{n+1}\frac{a-c}{b}

if n=1 (monopoly) we have Q^M=\frac{1}{2}\frac{a-c}{b}

if n goes to infinity (approaching competitive level), we get the competition quantity that would be Q^c=\frac{a-c}{b}

Explanation:

In the case of a homogeneous-good Cournot model we have that firm i will solve the following profit maximizing problem

Max_{q_i} \,\, \Pi_i=(a-b(\sum_{i=1}^n q_i)-m)q_i

from the FPC we have that

a-b\sum_{i=1}^n q_i -m -b q_i=0

q_i=\frac{a-b \sum_{i=2}^n q_i-m}{2b}

since all firms are homogeneous this means that q_i=q \forall i

then q=\frac{a-b (n-1) q-m}{2b}=\frac{a-m}{(n+1)b}

the industry output is then

Q=nq=\frac{n}{n+1}\frac{a-c}{b}

if n=1 (monopoly) we have Q^M=\frac{1}{2}\frac{a-c}{b}

if n goes to infinity (approaching competitive level), we get the competition quantity that would be Q^c=\frac{a-c}{b}
