A monopolist has the total cost function c(q) = 750 + 5q. The inverse demand function is 140 - 7q, where prices and costs are me
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

d. the firm will lose $750

Explanation:

marginal cost is the derivate of the cost function: It represent the cost of producting an additional unit

cost: 750 + 5q

dC/dQ = 5

We have determinate that marginal cost is $5 thus, we should price at the same value. The mistake from the goverment is to equalize marginal cost with price instead of marginal revenue.

This will make the firm loss the fixed component of the cost as will sale to pay up the variable cost.

The fixed cost is $750 so that is the loss from operations

Rudik [331]

Answer:

a. 1. Debit Accounts receivable $180,000

Credit Sales $180,000

2. Debit cash $125,000

Credit Accounts receivable $125,000

3. Debit Sales return $20,000

Credit $20,000

4. Debit Provision for bad debts expense $35,000

Credit Accounts receivable $35,000

5. Debit Accounts receivable $ $2,500

Credit Provision for bad debts expense $2,500

Debit Cash $2,500

Credit Accounts receivable $2,500

B. Debit Bad debts expense $27,500

Credit provision for bad debt expense $27,500

Explanation:

1. Sale on account will increase the accounts receivable. So we have to debit accounts receivable and credit to sales in the amount of $180,000

2. Collections will decrease the accounts receivable due payments made by the customer. So we have to debit cash and credit accounts receivable by $125,000

3. Sales return is a contra asset account that will decrease the accounts receivable and also the net sales. So we will debit sales return and credit accounts receivable in the amount of $20,000

4. Write offs will decrease the provision for bad debts account as well as the accounts receivable accounts by $35,000

5. Recovery of bad debts previously written off has no effect in accounts receivable but will increase the provision for bad debts due to reversal of entry previously made. First, we will reverse the original written off entry. Debit Accounts receivable and credit provision for bad debts expense in the amount of $2,500. Then we will record the collection by debiting cash and crediting accounts receivable in the amount of $2,500

B. Let’s determine the balance of accounts receivable first,

Beg. $275,000 + 180,000 sale on account - 125,000 collection - 20,000 sales return - 35,000 write-off = $275,000

Therefore, $275,000 x 10% = $27,500

Entry:

Debit Bad debts expense $27,500

Credit provision for bad debts expense $27,500

Mandarinka [93]

Answer: bureaucracy

Explanation:

Bureaucracy could be described as having a company or an industry being controlled by some set of individuals yet have little or no result to show. These control in most cases diminishes the flow of effective operation in the firm.

The I. T organization is having a bureaucracy issue, where decisions are only made at the top with no contribution from those carrying out the job. The input of those carrying out the job at the bottom could be very effective to change things in the organization.

"Stock R has a beta of 1.5, Stock S has a beta of 0.75, the required return on an average stock is 10%, and the risk-free rate o
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

4.5%

Explanation:

Stock R (Beta) = 1.5

Stock S  (Beta) = 0.75

Expected rate of return on an average stock (Rm)= 10%

Risk free rate (Rf) = 4%

Required Return (Re) = Rf +(Rm-Rf) B

Required Return = 0.04 + (0.10-0.04) B

Required Return = 0.04 + 0.06B

Stock R = 0.04 + (0.06 * 1.50)

Stock R = 0.04 + 0.09

Stock R = 0.13

Stock R = 13%

Stock S = 0.04 + (0.06 * 0.75)

Stock S = 0.04 + 0.045

Stock S = 0.085

Stock S = 8.5%

Here, the more risky stock is R and less risky stock is S. Since, R has more beta than the Stock S.

= 13% - 8.5%

= 4.5%
