Answer: Monopolistic Competition.

Explanation: The market structure that predominantly uses product differentiation is Monopolistic Competition, which consists of companies that market products with similar characteristics but that the consumer as such perceives as if said product were unique and different. That is where the differentiation of products is accommodated by the characteristics that it presents that makes it different from competing products.

Dima called her friend to tell her that she saved 30% on her new skirt at a discount store. Her friend told her that she could h

FromTheMoon [43]

If the original price of Dima’s skirt was $54, the amount that she have saved at the store was option(b)i.e, $1.80.

Let's just take the sales price of the skirt Dima purchased from the discount shop as the rate of the other retailer is not provided.

Original price: $54

Discount rate: 30%

$54 x 30% = $16.20 value of the discount

$54 - 16.20 = $37.80 discounted price.

Since Dima's friend told her she could have had a better deal at a different store, this means that the discount rate is higher than 30%. i.e, the discount is 33.33%

$54 x 33.33% = $17.99 value of the discount

$54 - 17.99 = $36.00 discounted price.

Discount store: $37.80

Different store: $36.00

The different store sales price is cheaper by $1.80

Therefore, she could have saved $1.80 at the store her friend suggested.

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

Cost of equity= 8.0%

Explanation:

Cost of equity can be ascertained using the dividend valuation model. The model states that the price of a stock is the present value of future dividends discounted at the required rate of return.

Cost of equity (Ke) =( Do( 1+g)/P ) + g

g - 2.2%, P - 36.72, D - 2.18

Ke = (2.18 ×(1+0.022)) /38.72 + 0.022 ) × 100

= 0.07954 × 100

= 8.0%

Cost of equity = 8.0%

irakobra [83]

Answer:

2018:

building: 296,400

Furniture and fixtures: 270,000

Office Equipment: 340,000

Total: 906,400

Explanation:

11,700,000 1/3 to land: 3,900,000

11,700,000 2/3 to building: 7,800,000

Office Equipment: 204,000

Total: 11,904,000

Building depreciation: 

(historic cost - salvage value)/useful life

(7,800,000 - 7,800,000 x 5%)/25 = 296,400

As this is straight-line depreciation will be constant for both years.

Furniture and fixtures: double-declining

the assets depreciate at a rate double of straight line of the carrying value

carring value: 2/useful life

2018: 1,350,000 x 1/10 x 2 = 270,000

2019: (1,350,000-270,000) x 1/10 x 2 = 216,000

Office Equipment: double-declining

2018: 850,000 x 2/5 = 340,000

2019: (850,000 - 340,000) x 2/5 = 204,000
