Northern Air has dozens of flights daily into and out of Belleville Airport, which is highly congested. Northern Air depends for

its success on economy and quick turnaround and consequently is planning to replace its large planes with Skybuses, the novel aerodynamic design of which is extremely fuel efficient. The Skybus’ fuel efficiency results in both lower fuel costs and reduced time spent refueling.
Which of the following, if true, could present the most serious disadvantage for Northern Air in replacing its large planes with Skybuses?


(A) The Skybus would enable Northern Air to schedule direct flights to destinations that currently require stops for refueling.

(B) Aviation fuel is projected to decline in price over the next several years.

(C) The fuel efficiency of the Skybus would enable Northern Air to eliminate refueling at some of its destinations, but several mechanics would lose their jobs.

(D) None of Northern Air’s competitors that use Belleville Airport are considering buying Skybuses.

(E) The aerodynamic design of the Skybus causes turbulence behind it when taking off that forces other planes on the runway to delay their takeoffs.

Answer:

The answer is E.

Explanation:

Given the information about the airline company Northern Air and their problem with Belleville airport, when we evaluate the options for any disadvantages for Northern Air we can say that;

Option A, being able to schedule flights without stopping for refueling is completely an advantage for Nothern Air.

Option B, the decline of the cost of aviation fuel over the next several years can only cause a problem if the amount they will save from their fuel costs and other costs are going to exceed the amount that will be spent on the Skybuses.

Option C, several mechanics losing their jobs is certainly not the most serious disadvantage Northern Air is going to have from this action.

Option D, the fact that none of Northern Air's competitors in the Belleville Airport are buying Skybuses is not a disadvantage for Northern Air.

Option E, the aerodynamic of the Skybus causing turbulence and therefore leading the delay for the take-off could be a serious disadvantage because of its affects to the company's strict flight schedules.

I hope this answer helps.

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

17.10%

Explanation:

The computation of the cost of equity is shown below:

In this question, we apply the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) formula which is shown below

Expected rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)

= 6.10% + 1.25 × 8.8%

= 6.10% + 11%

= 17.10%

The  (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)  is also known as market risk premium and the same is applied.

All other information which is given is not relevant. Hence, ignored it

<u>Equipment:</u>

                                                  Dr.       Cr.

Depreciation Expense          $5,520

Accumulated Depreciation                $5,520

<u>Land:</u>

Land never depreciates, so there is no adjusting entry for the Land purchased on year end.

Explanation:

Year end is not given in the data so, it is assumed the December 31 is the end of the year

Equipment

Depreciation  for the year = ( Purchase price - Residual value ) / useful life

Depreciation  for the year = ( $32,000 - $4,400 ) / 5 years

Depreciation  for the year = $5,520

Warnes Motors' stock is trading at $20 a share. Three-month call options with an exercise price of $20 have a price of $1.50. Wh
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

B. The price of the call option will increase by less than $2, but the percentage increase in price will be more than 10%.

Explanation:

Given

Trading price = $20

Exercise price of call option = $20

Call option price = $1.50

Price increment = 10% to $22

It's not be noted that the discounted present value of a price of an option is represented by its expected payoff.

An increment of $2 in stock price attracts an increment of more than $2 in the payoff option.

Having highlighted that, it's also to be noted that the increment in expected payoff will be by an amount less than $2 and same with present value because the possibility is less than 1. So, the price of the option will increase by less than $2.

Moving to the percentage increase;

This will be larger than 10%.

This is because when stock price increases by 10%, the value of the option will increase by more than 10%.

For a particular good, a 12 percent increase in price causes a 3 percent decrease in quantity demanded. Which of the following s
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

b.The good is a necessity

Explanation:

The price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded/ percentage change in price

3% / 12% = 0.25

When the coefficient of elasticity is less than one, demand is inelastic.

Inelastic demand means that when price increases, there is little or no change in quantity demanded.

Necessity goods are goods that are very important to consumers and thus they tend to have an inelastic demand. For example, medications.

Substitute goods are goods that can be used in place of another good because of their similarity. E.g. butter and margarine

Goods with many substitutes have an elastic demand. If price of a good increases, consumers can easily shift consumption to substitute goods.

Narrowly defined goods have an elastic demand because it is easier to find subsituites for such goods.

Demand is more elastic in the long run because consumers have more time to search for substitutes.

I hope my answer helps you
