National Drilling Company ships its only pump to American Hydraulics Corporation, the manufacturer, for repair. National pays Ov

erland Transport, Inc., $400 to haul the pump to American Hydraulics and to return it to National five days later when the repair is complete. National is forced to suspend operations without a pump, but National does NOT tell Overland. To avoid losing profits of $1,000 per day while the pump is out for repairs, National rents a replacement pump at a cost of $100 per day. The repairs are completed on time, but Overland does not return the pump on the day specified in the contract, and delays five more days before returning the pump. National files a suit against Overland, asking for compensatory, consequential, and punitive damages. National will most likely be awarded

Answer:

National will prevail with regards in recovering the damages, but not for all the damages that it looks for. Overland's inability to perform quickly is a break of agreement for which National can recover damages. Although, the late delivery of pump by the Overland's, National is qualified for recover the cost of renting the pump for the five days that Overland delayed. Costs that are caused legitimately by a breach of agreement.

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

$30,000 and $360,000

Explanation:

The computation of the gain on the exchange is shown below:

= Cash received + fair value of the computer  -  undepreciated cost of existing computer

= $120,000 + $360,000 - $450,000

= $30,000

The amount of the computer which is recorded will equal to the fair value of the computer i.e $360,000

For computing the gain we simply added the fair value and deduct the undepreciated cost of an existing computer in the cash received amount so that the accurate amount can come.

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

The markup calculated as a result of information about the elasticity of demand

Explanation:

As a monopoly seller of pharmaceutical products the price set as markup would be above our marginal cost.

There are three facts about markup:

1. The Markup is not to be a price below marginal cost of the pharmaceutical product.

2. Markup is smaller when demand is more elastic. Remember if the price elasticity of demand is lower than 1, (negative) a rise in price causes an

increase in revenue for the seller.

Therefore having a -4 elasticity of demand could imply more profits for the firm.

Alex

Answer:

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Product - Pounds - Price/lb.

Loin chops 3,000lb $ 5.00/lb

Ground 10,000lb $2.00/lb

Ribs 4,000lb $4.75/lb

Bacon 6,000lb $3.50/lb

The total joint cost for the current period was $43,000

First, we need to calculate the weighted average lb participation of Loin Chops:

Total lb= 23,000

Weighted average lb= 3,000/23,000= 0.13

Now, we can allocate the joint costs:

Loin Chop= $43,000*0.13= $5,590
