Answer:

If American produces the new compound, profit will increase by $88,000

Explanation:

increase in selling price = selling price of new variant of chemical - selling price of chemical compound

                                         = $83 - $52

                                         = $31

Net increase in profit = total increase in selling price - additional processing cost

                                    = $31*8000 - $160000

                                    = $248000 - $160000

                                    = $88,000

Therefore, If American produces the new compound, profit will increase by $88,000.

Stels [109]
When a company exchanges 200 shares of stock worth $20 each for 100 shares worth $40 each, they are using reverse stock split. 
A reverse stock split is a corporate action in which a firm or a company reduces the number of shares it has outstanding by a set multiple. For example, if a company announces a reverse stock split of 1:50, this means that once the split occurs investors will receive one share for every 100 shares they own.

MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

all of the above characterize dealer markets.

  • no time-consuming search for a fair deal.
  • a guarantee of order fulfillment because the dealer holds an inventory of securities.
  • improved market efficiency because dealers provide continuous bid and ask prices for securities.

Explanation:

A dealer market is a market where financial dealers post their trading prices (the buying and selling price of stocks, bonds, foreign currency, etc.). The largest dealer market in the US is Nasdaq where stocks are traded electronically. The main difference between a dealer market and a regular auction market like the NYSE is that no bidding takes place since operations are done in a split second.
