Consider a monopolist currently selling output Q to two different markets: Market A and Market B. This monopolist is able to pri

ce discriminate and charge different prices in these markets. Let QA and PA be the quantity and price in market A, and QB and PB be the quantity and price in market B. The monopolist is optimally choosing its prices and quantities, in order to maximize profit. The monopolist knows the price elasticity of demand in these markets, and knows that market A is more inelastic than market B. Consider each of the following three statements. What do we know for sure?1) Regarding marginal revenues, we must have MRA > MRB 2) Regarding prices, we must have PA > PB 3) Regarding quantities, we must have QA> QB

Answer:

1. This is true because demand in market A is more inelastic which means demand curve and marginal revenue curve are steeper in this market. at any quantity marginal revenue will be higher in market A than in market B

2. This is true because market where demand is inelastic have a higher price. This is because revenue is increased when higher price is charged in market with inelastic demand.

3. This is false/uncertain because when price is higher in market a the quantity will be lower relativity. This is due to the downward sloping demand function in which price is increased quantity will decline.

In the past, Taylor Industries has used a fixed−time period inventory system that involved taking a complete inventory count of
N76 [4]

Answer:

a) Taylor Industries can successfully cut back its labor cost in inventory stockrooms by counting only high-value items.  These items are determined by reference to their Annual Usage values.  The items' annual usage values should be used as the activity cost pool for accumulating and allocating labor cost in inventory stockrooms.  Taylor Industries can establish a benchmark or cutoff point so that only the items meeting this benchmark are counted.  For example, the items with annual usage value above $5,000 should be included in the items to be counted.  This strategy will reduce the number of items to be counted and therefore the labor cost.

b) Since item 15 is critical to Taylor Industries' continued operations, it should be classified as a direct materials cost and not an overhead cost.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

a random sample of 20 of Taylor's items:

ITEM NUMBER   ANNUAL USAGE    ITEM NUMBER    ANNUAL USAGE

1                               $ 1,500                      11                       $ 13,000

2                               12,000                     12                              600

3                                2,200                      13                        42,000

4                              50,000                     14                           9,900

5                                9,600                     15                            1,200

6                                   750                      16                         10,200

7                                2,000                      17                          4,000

8                               11,000                      18                         61,000

9                                  800                       19                         3,500

10                            15,000                      20                        2,900

Average annual usage value = $12,657.50
