xenn [34]

Answer:

The business will need to borrow $34,000

Explanation:

We will need to analyse the cash flows the business has in order to determine how much needs to be borrowed to meet the ending cash balance desired.

The opening cash balance is $23,000, cash inflow as receipts is $136,000

So total cash on hand will be 23,000+ 136,000= $159,000

The cash on hand less disbursements will give ending balance

Ending balance = 159,000 - 135,000

Ending balance= $24,000

Desired closing balance is $58,000

Balance to meet desired cash= 58,000 - 24,000

Balance to meet desired cash= $34,000

Suppose that demand for a product is Q = 1200 − 4P and supply is Q = −240 + 2P. Furthermore, suppose that the marginal external
eimsori [14]

Answer: 16 units more than social optimum.

DWL = dead weight loss = (1/2)*(Q* - Q°) 12 =96

Explanation:

Q=1200 - 4P and Q=-240 + 2P

In a free market quantity demand =quantity supplied

1200 -4P = -240 +2P

P =240

Sub P

Q* = 240

Socially optimal quantity is

Marginal social benefit (MSC)= marginal social cost(MSC), including external damage =MEC

MPC= marginal private cost =inverse of supply function

MPC = (1/2)*Q + 120

MEC=12

MSC =(MPC +MEC) = (1/2)Q +120 +12

MSC= MPB where MPB is marginal private benefit = inverse of demand functn

MPB = 300 -(1/4)Q

(1/2)Q + 132 =300 - (1/4)Q

Q° = 224

Difference btw Q* & Q° = 16 units more than social optimum.

DWL = dead weight loss = (1/2)*(Q* - Q°) 12 =96
