Answer:

The answer is option A) The short run recommendation for a monopolistic firm is to remain at the current output level

Explanation:

In the short run, monopolistic firms could record losses but still continue to run in anticipation of a sustainable profit in the long run.

A self-employed profit-maximizing consultant specializing in monopolies understands that the short run losses experienced in a monopoly is also an advantage in that it reduces the participation of more players in the same industry/ market segment.

The best recommendation would be to remain at the current output level during the short run to cut losses, sustain patronage and then develop a long term strategy that will guarantee profitability in the long run.

Selling expenses = Total expenses - Contra Expenses

from the question, we identify that total expenses is (1,100,000 + 400,000) = $1,500,000

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

a.higher than the market rate of interest

Explanation:

If bonds are issued at a premium, the stated interest rate is <u>higher than the market rate of interest.</u>

- If the company issues the binds at a premium, it means that the company is getting more money than the face value of the bond.

- This happens because the demand for the bind is high in the market.

- The demand is high because the company offers higher interest rate as compared to market interest rate.

- If the bonds are issued at a discount, then the stated interest rate is lower than the market interest rate.
