Sophie [7]

Answer:

market net operating profit per square foot = $8.80

Explanation:

total investment = $145 per square foot

the investor requires a 6% rate of return = $145 x 6% = $8.70 per square foot

total revenue per square foot =                                                      $11

proportional market vacancy and credit loss = $11 x 5% =        ($0.55)

<u>other expenses = $11 x 15% =                                                       ($1.65)  </u>

market net operating profit per square foot =                             $8.80

The project should be carried out since the net operating profit is larger than the investor's required rate of return.

When Bill's Diner moves from the production combination of 35 burgers and 25 hotdogs to the combination of 25 burgers and 65 hot
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

<h2>In the context of Consumer Theory or Indifference Curve involving two goods,the opportunity of any one good is computed by how much of the other good is foregone or sacrificed to purchase one more unit of that particular good.</h2>

Explanation:

  • In this instance,when Bill's diner consumes 35 burgers and 25 hotdogs,its opportunity cost of additional hot dog=\frac{35}{25} =\frac{7}{5}=1.4.Therefore,initially Bill diner's opportunity cost of an additional hot dog is 1.4 units of burger.
  • Now,when Bill's diner chooses to consume a combination of 25 burgers and 65 hot dogs,its opportunity cost of additional hot dogs=\frac{25}{65} =\frac{5}{13} =0.385 approximately.Hence,Bill's diner is willing to sacrifice approximately 0.385 units of burger to consume an additional unit of hot dog.
  • Now,due to the change in consumption combination,the change in opportunity cost of additional hot dog=(1.4-0.385)=1.015 units of burger.Notice,that here the opportunity cost of additional hot dog decreased from 1.4 units of burger to 0.385 units of burger as Bill's diner changed the consumption combination of both burgers and hot dogs.

The restaurant's total cost is a mixed cost that depends on customers served. The restaurant's management uses the high-low meth
harina [27]

Answer:

$29,390

Explanation:

For computing the total cost first we have to determine the variable cost per customer and the fixed cost which is shown below:

Variable cost Per Customer is

= (High total cost - low total cost) ÷ (high number of customer served - low cost of customer served)

= ($28,934 - $28,241) ÷ (14,100 - 11,214)

= $0.24

Now

Fixed cost is

= High cost - (high number of customer served × variable cost per customer)

= 28,934 - (14,100 × 0.24)

= $25,550

So, the total cost for 16,000 customers is

= Fixed cost + variable cost

= $25,550 + (16,000 × $0.24)

= $29,390
