Answer:

b. $360,000.

Explanation:

Data provided in the question

Purchase value of the patent = $720,000

At the time of purchase, the patent life is 15 years

And, the useful life of the patent is 10 years

So, the amortization expense recorded value is

= $720,000 ÷ 10 years × 5 years

= $360,000

The five years is counted from the year 2006 to the year 2011

Suppose you are in charge of sales at a pharmaceutical company, and your firm has a new drug that causes bald men to grow hair.
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

The company should increase the number of units she is producing

Explanation:

Since the elasticity of demand for the product is greater than one (1.4), it means the demand for the new drug is elastic, meaning the demand for the new drug is sensitive to price – the higher the price, the lower the quantity demanded and the vice-versa. So the pharmaceutical company should be careful of charging higher than the other competitors.

What the company needs to do to increase its revenue is to produce large quantity of the drug in order to earn higher and gain larger market share and probably economies of scale.

For example, If the company produces 400 units of the drug at $2, the revenue will be $800.

To increase the revenue, the company needs to increase its production.

For example, the increases the production to 500 units at the prevailing price of $2, therefore, the revenue will be $1000

Last year if 97 percent of the revenues of a company came from domestic sources and the remaining revenues, totaling $450,000, c
serg [7]
If 97% came from domestic sources then 3% came from foreign sources. This means that $450,000 is 3/100 of the total amount. You need to divide 450,000 by 3 to get 1/100 (1%) of the total amount, then multiply that number by 100 to give you the sum of 100/100 (100%) of the company's revenues:
450,000/3=150,000×100= $15,000,000
So, the company made $15,000,000 last year
