Answer:

B

Explanation:

First, a monopoly produce less than the socially efficient quantity because as the figure shows, the quantity produced is determined by the intersection between the marginal cost curve (MC) and the marginal revenue curve (MR) and not by the intersection between the MC and the demand. For instance, there is a deadweight loss (shown by the figure).

Second, equilibrium price is always higher than in a competitive market because is always higher than the MC. The price is determined by the equilibrium quantity (found before) and the demand. Also, there are barries to entry and so monopolist have always price control.

The production department of Priston Company has submitted the following forecast of units to be produced by quarter for the upc
Levart [38]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

1st Quarter -  2nd Quarter - 3rd Quarter - 4th Quarter

Units to be produced: 6,000 - 7,000 - 8,000 - 5,000

the beginning raw materials inventory= 3,600

Each unit requires three pounds of raw material that costs $2.50 per pound. Management desires to end each quarter with a raw materials inventory equal to 20% of the following quarter

I will assume that the requirements are the cost of direct material for each quarter.

<u />

<u>The direct material budget is calculated by the following formula:</u>

Direct material budget= direct material for production + ending inventory - beginning inventory

Q1:

Production= (6,000*3)*$2.5= $45,000

Ending inventory= [(7,000*3)*$2.5]*0.20= $10,500

Beginning inventory= (3,600*2.5)= (9,000)

Total= $46,500

Q2:

Production= (7,000*3)*$2.5= $52,500

Ending inventory= [(8,000*3)*$2.5]*0.20= $12,000

Beginning inventory= (10,500)

Total= $54,000

Q3:

Production= (8,000*3)*$2.5= $60,000

Ending inventory= [(5,000*3)*$2.5]*0.20= $7,500

Beginning inventory= (12,000)

Total= $55,500

Aneli [31]

Answer:

Dodd-Frank Act of 2010

Explanation:

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act was enacted as stated by its name to change how Wall Street worked (well not only Wall Street, but the financial system) and to specially protect the small investor. It was promoted by Senator Chris Dodd and Representative Barney Frank as a result of the great recession suffered between 2008 and 2010, which was primarily caused by an inefficient and sometimes even corrupt financial system. It is a very long and complex law, but it mainly places strict regulations on lenders, banks and other financial institutions.
