Answer:

Jennings breached the contract

Explanation:

A merchant firm offer is one that is irrevocable, the offeror makes an offer to sell goods within a given time frame and signs off on it.

Even without consideration (acceptance) from the other party, the contract is irrevocable.

A merchant firm offer that does not have a stated time frame rains open for a reasonable time.

In this instance Jennings made a merchant firm offer. Even if Wheeler had not accepted the offer it is irrevocable till June 9.

So by selling the car on May 15 he has breached the contract.

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

B. French wines will become more expensive in the United States.

Explanation:

Exchange rate is the rate at which one currency can be exchanged for another during international trade. The strength of a currency determines how much of the other countrie's goods it can purchase.

When the strength of a countrie's currency is high it will purchase more of the other countrie's goods. If however the currency is weak, it will take more to buy the other countrie's goods.

In this case if the dollar falls against the euro, it will take more dollars to buy French wine than before.

For example if a bottle of French wine was $500, after the fall the price may now be $800.

kakasveta [241]

Answer:

$16400

$8200

Explanation:

Depreciation expense using the double declining method = Depreciation factor x cost of the asset

Depreciation factor = 2 x (1/useful life)  

Depreciation factor = 2/4 = 0.5

Depreciation expense in year 1 = 0.5 x $32,800 = $16,400

Book value at the beginning of year 2 =  $32,800 - $16,400 = $16400

Depreciation expense in year 2 = 0.5 x $16,400= $8200

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

a. The optimal pricing strategy will be one-shot Nash equilibrium in which “You” charge low price, “Your Rival” charge low price and then the payoff is ($0, $0)

b. Yes, the anwer will differ becuase it is not possible to sustain the collusive outcome as a Nash equilibrium because \pi ^{Cheat} > \pi ^{Cooperate}.

Explanation:

a. Determine your optimal pricing strategy if you and your rival believe that the new Highlander is a "special edition" that will be sold only for one year.

Note: See the attached excel file for the Representation of one shot normal for of the game played between "You" and "Your Rival" together with the payoffs.

From the attached excel file, the dominant strategy is for “You” and “Your Rival” to charge “Low Price” each. If the dominant strategy is played by “You” and “Your Rival”, the optimal pricing strategy will be one-shot Nash equilibrium in which “You” charge low price, “Your Rival” charge low price and then the payoff is ($0, $0).

b. Would your answer differ if you and your rival were required to resubmit price quotes year after year and if, in any given year, there was a 60 percent chance that Toyota would discontinue the Highlander? Explain.

When we have a year-after-year competition between “You” and “Your Rival” but with a 60 percent chance that Toyota would discontinue the Highlander, the payoffs of the firm that continue to comply with the collusive strategy of charging “High Price” by each firm under the normal trigger strategy whereby “You” and “Your Rival” agree to charge high price as long as there is no past deviation by any of the firm, otherwise charge a low price is as follows:

\pi ^{Cooperate} = $6 + $6(100% - 60%) + $6(100% - 60%)^2 + 6(100% - 60%)^2 …….

\pi ^{Cooperate} = $6 / 6% = $10

Therefore, what the firm that cheats earn today is $11 million and it earns $0 forever. The implication of this is that \pi ^{Cheat} = $11

Therefore, the anwer will differ becuase it is not possible to sustain the collusive outcome as a Nash equilibrium because \pi ^{Cheat} > \pi ^{Cooperate}.
