Answer:

A. $60

Explanation:

Recall that, consumer's surplus refers to the price that a consumer is willing to pay less the amount he or she actually pays.

Thus

Consumer surplus = maximum price willing to pay - actual market price.

Given that

Market price = $40

Vonda is willing to pay = $90

Aleiyah is willing to pay = $50

Hence.

Vonda consumer surplus = 90 - 40

= $50

Aleiyah consumer surplus = 50 - 40

= $10.

Total consumer surplus = 50 + 10

= $60.

You are looking to buy a car and you have been offered a loan with an APR of 5.7 %​, compounded monthly. a. What is the true mon
lukranit [14]

Answer:

Monthly Interest rate = 0.475%

EAR = 5.85%

Explanation:

a.

APR = 5.7%

Monthly Interest rate = APR / n

Monthly Interest rate = 5.7% / 12

Monthly Interest rate = 0.475%

b.

APR = 5.7%

m = 12

EAR = [ ( 1 + (APR / m))^m] - 1

EAR = [( 1 + (0.057 / 12))^12] - 1

EAR = [( 1 + 0.00475 )^12] - 1

EAR = [( 1.00475 )^12] - 1

EAR = 1.0585 - 1

EAR = 0.0585

EAR = 5.85%

True monthly rate of​ interest is 0.475%

EAR is 5.85%

Answer:

cartel

Explanation:

A "cartel" is a<em> group of competitors or market participants</em> who are independent from each other. They <u>work in unison by cooperating secretly</u> in an <em>unlawful way</em> so they can control the supply and price of their products. In this way, they can dominate the market.

The potential gross income of a warehouse is $4,200 a month and the vacancy rate is 2 1/2%. The taxes are $3750, the monthly mai
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

$238,320

Explanation:

First we should determine the total yearly revenue:

$4,200 (monthly income) x 12 = $50,400 - 2.5% (vacancy rate) = $49,140

Now we must determine the expenses:

monthly maintenance costs = $350 x 12 = $4,200 per year

taxes = $3,750 per year

monthly reserves for replacement = $250 x 12 = $3,000 per year

management fees = $500 x 12 = $6,000 per year

quarterly landscaping fees = $600 x 4 = $2,400 per year

Total revenues                                                       $49,140

maintenance costs                                                ($4,200)

taxes                                                                       ($3,750)  

reserves for replacement                                     ($3,000)

management fees                                                 ($6,000)

<u>landscaping fees                                                   ($2,400)   </u>

net profit per year                                                 $29,790

warehouse value = $29,790 / cap rate = $29,790 / 12.5% = $238,320
