Explanation:

There are certain necessary conditions required for a market to operate as a monopoly. These conditions are not generally met in the real world. This is the reason why monopolies are very rare not so common in the real world.

A monopoly is a market structure where there is a single producer selling a product with no close substitutes. In the real world, almost all products have substitutes.

Also for a monopoly to operate there should be a restriction on entry and exit of firms which is difficult to hold in the real world.

allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

Net cash flow for The Rogers Corporation: $435,200

Net cash flow for The Evans Corporation: $332,400

Explanation:

For The Rogers Corporation:

Income before tax = $746,000 - $305,000 - $224,000 = $217,000

Tax = $217,000 x 40% = $86,800

Net income afer tax = $217,000 - $86,800 = $130,200

Net cash flow = Gross profit - Selling and administrative expense - Tax = $746,000 - $224,000 - $86,800 = $435,200

For The Evans Corporation

Income before tax = $746,000 - $48,000 - $224,000 = $474,000

Tax = $474,000 x 40% = $189,600

Net income afer tax = $474,000 - $189,600 = $284,400

Net cash flow = $746,000 - $224,000 - $189,600 = $332,400

Arntson, Inc., manufactures and sells two products: Product R3 and Product N0. The annual production and sales of Product of R3

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

$671.92

Explanation:

Note: The full question is attached as picture below

Product R3

Labor-related cost = 40736/7200*5400

Labor-related cost = $30,552

Production orders = 65970/1600*1000

Production orders = $41,231

Order size = 433175/7100*3100

Order size = $189,133

Total overhead = Labor-related cost + Production orders + Order size

Total overhead = $30,552 + $41,231 + $189,133

Total overhead = $260,916

Annual production and sales of Product of R3 = 900 u nit

Overhead cost per unit = Total overhead / Unit

Overhead cost per unit = $260,916 / 900

Overhead cost per unit = $289.92

Direct material = $226

Direct labor = (26*6) = $156

Unit product cost = Overhead cost per unit + Direct material + Direct labor

Unit product cost = $289.92 + $226 + $156

Unit product cost = $671.92.
