Semi-Salt Industries began its operation in 1975 and remains the only firm in the world that produces and sells commercial-grade

polyglutamate. While virtually anyone with a degree in college chemistry could replicate the firm’s formula, due to the relatively high cost, Semi-Salt has decided not to apply for a patent. Despite the absence of patent protection, Semi-Salt has averaged accounting profits of 5.5 percent on investment since it began producing polyglutamate—a rate comparable to the average rate of interest that large banks paid on deposits over this period.
1. Do you think Semi-Salt is earning monopoly profits? Why?

STatiana [176]

Answer:

d. $ 263.50

Explanation:

The Exchange  rate is 1 dollar = 19.924 Uruguayan Peso.

We need to buy 5000 Uruguayan pesos but the agent requires a comision of  a 5%  when converting currency, so really we will need to buy:

5,000 Uruguayan pesos + 5,000 Uruguayan pesos* 0.05 = 5,250 Uruguayan pesos.

Now if we apply the given exchange rate we will obtain the amount of US Dollars we need:

x U$S = (5,250 Ur.$)/(19,924 Ur.$/U$S)= 263,50 U$S needed
