Answer:
(a) $17,900
(b) $800
Explanation:
Given that,
Current assets = $4,900
Net fixed assets = $27,300
Current liabilities = $4,100
Long-term debt = $10,200
(a) Total assets = Current assets + Net fixed assets
= $4,900 + $27,300
= $32,200
Total liabilities = Current liabilities + Long-term debt
= $4,100 + $10,200
= $14,300
value of the shareholders’ equity:
= Total assets - Total liabilities
= $32,200 - $14,300
= $17,900
(b) Net working capital:
= Current assets - Current liabilities
= $4,900 - $4,100
= $800

Answer: $498
Explanation:
A Put is an option that will only be exercised if the price of the underlying security which is the stock in this case, falls below the current price of $58.
This means that we will not include the 70% chance of increase in our calculation.
In a contract, there are 100 shares.
Expected profit = Contract price - (Prob. of dropping by 10% * 10% of stock) - (Prob. of dropping by 20% * 20% of stock)
= 730 - ( 20% * 10% * 58 * 100) - (10% * 20% * 58 * 100)
= 730 - 116 - 116
= $498
Answer: The correct answer is "mediator; arbitrator".
Explanation: When negotiations appeared to be going in the wrong direction, an HVAC systems company and its union representatives agreed to bring in a <u>mediator</u>. This expert would serve as a facilitator to get negotiations back on track; whereas, if a <u>arbitrator</u> were solicited by both union and management, that person's decision in the situation would be binding.
A mediator is not the same as an arbitrator, the mediator is a third party that is in charge of facilitating and promoting communication and dialogue in order to finalize the negotiations according to the interests of each party.
On the other hand, an arbitrator is a third party that is in charge of listening to the interests and requests of each party and resolving the situation through an objective solution that is binding and obligatory for the parties.
Answer:
Explicit Costs: 1500+1750 = 3250.
Explicit Cost is the cost that is tangible and can be seen.
Implicit Costs & Opportunity Costs: 20000+4000 = 24000.
Implicit cost and opportunity cost will be the same here because they both represent the intangible cost that is foregone by choosing the next best alternative.
Economic Profit: Revenue - Explicit Costs - Implicit Costs
Therefore, the economic profit in this question will be,
45000-3250-24000 = $17480.
Although Britney is earning a profit of $17480 in 2012, from economic viewpoint, she is operating at loss because she could have earned $24000(Rent+Music) by just doing what she was doing previously.
Hope my answer helps you. Good luck.
