Answer:

$75

Explanation:

A perfect competition is characterised by many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.

In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit. If in the short run firms are earning economic profit, in the long run firms would enter into the industry. This would drive economic profit to zero.

Also, if in the short run, firms are earning economic loss, in the long run, firms would exit the industry until economic profit falls to zero.

The price per unit = $300 / 60 = $5

The marginal revenue for one unit is $5

Production increased by 15 units, so marginal revenue increased by $5 × 15 = $75

Suppose you are going to receive $13,200 per year for five years. The appropriate interest rate is 8.1 percent.
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

a-1) Pv = 52549

a-2) Pv = 56822

b-1) Fv = 77570

b-2 Fv = 83878

Explanation:

b-1) Future value:

S= Sum of amount of annuity=?

n=number of fixed periods=5 years

R=Fixed regular payments=13200

i=Compound interest rate= .081 (suppose annualy)

we know that ordinary  annuity:

S= R [(1+i)∧n-1)]/i

   = 13200[(1+.081)∧5-1]/.081

    =13200(1.476-1)/.081

    = 13200 * 5.8765

  S  = 77570

a.1)Present value of ordinary annuity:

Formula: Present value = C* [(1-(1+i)∧-n)]/i

                                  =13200 * [(1-(1+.081)∧-5]/.081

                                 =13200 * (1-.6774)/.081

                                =13200 * (.3225/.081)

                                =52549

a.2)Present value of ordinary Due:

Formula : Present value = C * [(1-(1+i)∧-n)]/i   *  (1+i)

                                    =  13200 * [(1- (1+.081)∧-5)/.081   * (1+.081)

                                 = 13200  * 3.9822 *  1.081

                               =  56822

b-2) Future value=?

we know that:         S= R [(1+i)∧n+1)-1]/i ]  -R

                             = 13200[ [ (1+.081)∧  5+1 ]-1/.081]   - 13200

                           = 13200 (.5957/.081)   -13200

                         = (13200 * 7.3544)-13200

                         = 97078  -  13200

                       =  83878

You want to buy your dream car which will cost you $5900. If you could invest your entire savings of $3500 at an annual interest
Liula [17]

Answer:

t = 4.607742347 years rounded off to 4.61 years

Explanation:

To calculate the number of years it will take an investment of $3500 to grow to $5900 at an annual interest rate of 12%, we will use the formula for the future value of cash flows. The formula can be written as follows,

Future value = Present value * (1+i)^t

Where,

  • i is the interest rate
  • t is the time in years

Plugging in the values for future value, present value and i, we can calculate the t to be,

5900 = 3500 * (1+0.12)^t

5900 / 3500 = (1.12)^t

1.685714286 = 1.12^t

Taking log on both sides.

Ln(1.685714286)  /  Ln(1.12)  =  t

t = 4.607742347 years rounded off to 4.61 years

______ approach to capital budgeting discounts the after-tax cash flow from a project going to the equity holders of a levered f
lord [1]

Flow to Equity (FTE) is the approach to capital budgeting that discounts the after-tax cash flow from a project going to the equity holders of a levered firm.

An alternative capital budgeting strategy is the flow to equity (FTE) or free cash flow approach. The FTE approach merely requires that equity capital be discounted at the cost of the cash flows from the project to the equity holders of the leveraged firm. The amount of cash that a company's equity shareholders have access to after all costs, reinvestment, and debt repayment is taken into account is known as flow to equity. Free Cash Flow to Equity (FCFE) is calculated as Net Income - (Capital Expenditures - Depreciation) - (Change in Non-cash Working Capital) - (Change in Non-cash Equity) + (New Debt Issued - Debt Repayments) This is the cash flow that can be used to repurchase stock or pay dividends.
