Music compact discs are normal goods. What will happen to the equilibrium price and quantity of music compact discs if musicians

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

Quantity will rise, and the effect on price is ambiguous.

Explanation:

Music compact discs are normal goods. There is a positive relationship between the demand for the normal goods and the income of the consumers.

If the compact disc players become cheaper to produce then as a result all the producers start producing music compact discs and this will increase the supply of music compact disc. This will shift the supply curve rightwards.

And if the income of the music lovers increases then as a result the demand for music compact discs increases. This will shift the demand curve rightwards.

Therefore, these changes will increase the equilibrium quantity and the impact on equilibrium price is ambiguous because that will be dependent upon the magnitude of the shift of supply and demand curve.

Firm A currently dumps 157 tons of chemicals into the local river. Firm B currently dumps 183 tons of chemicals into the local r

Kruka [31]

Answer:

$20,670

Explanation:

Firm A Firm B

Actual Dumping 157 183

Pollution Permits Allotted 11 11

Reduction Required 146 172

Cost of Dumping 1 ton $160 $65

As the cost of dumping to Firm A is $160 which is higher than the marginal cost of dumping of Firm B which is $65, so it is better that Firm B take benefit from it by selling it at $65. So now total tons require dumping is 318 tons (146 + 172).

Total cost of reducing pollution = 318 tons * $65 = $20,670

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

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

$695.24 per unit

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what The unit product cost of Product R3 under activity-based costing is closest to

First step is to Calculate Activity rates

Activity Cost Pool Activity driver Overhead Cost (A) Expected Activity (B) Activity rate (A/B)

Labor related Number of DLH $ 40,636÷13,000 = 3.13 Per DLH

Production orders Number of Order 65,880÷ 1,600= 41.18 Per Order

Order size Number of MH 433,075÷ 7,600 = 56.98 Per MH

Second step is to calculate the Cost assigned to Product R3

Cost assigned to Product R3

Activity name Activity Rates Activity ABC Cost

(A) (B) (A x B)

Labor related 3.13 * 11,000 =$34,430

Production orders 41.18* 1,200=$49,416

Order size 56.98*3,900= $222,222

Total Overheads assigned $306,068

($34,430+$49,416+$222,222)

Production 1,100

Overhead cost per unit $278.24

Product R3

Direct material $211

Direct labor (10x $20.60 per DLH) $206

Overheads $278.24

Total Cost per unit $695.24

($211+$206+$278.24)

Therefore The unit product cost of Product R3 under activity-based costing is closest to $695.24 per unit

Suppose you are evaluating two mutually exclusive projects, A and B. Project A costs $350 and has cash flows of $250 and $250 in

ki77a [65]

Answer:

The answer is 30%

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

Project A

Project A costs = $350

Cash flows =$250 and $250 (next 2 years)

Project B

Project B costs =$300

Cash flow = $300 and $100

Now what is the crossover rate for these projects.

Thus

Year Project A Project B A-B B-A

0 -350 -300 -50 50

1 250 300 -50 50

2 250 100 150 -150

IRR 27% 26% 30% 30%

So,

CF = CF1/(1+r)^1 + CF2/(1+r)^2

$-50 = $-50/(1+r)^1 + $150/(1+r)^2

r = 30%

CF = CF1/(1+r)^1 + CF2/(1+r)^2

$50 = $50/(1+r)^1 + $-150/(1+r)^2

r = 30%

Hence, the cross over rate for these project is 30%

Note:

IRR =Internal rate of return

CF =Cash flow

r = rate
