Answer:
5.657%
Explanation:
Data provided:
Face value = $1,000
Current market price = $640
Time of maturity, t = 8 year
Now,
the compounding formula is given as:
Face value = Current amount × 
where,
r is the rate i.e pretax rate of debt
n is the number of times the interest is compounded i.e for semiannual n = 2
thus, on substituting the values, we get
$ 1,000= $ 640 × 
or
1.5625 = 
or
= 1.0282
or
r = 0.05657
or
pretax cost of debt = 0.05657 × 100% = 5.657%
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
Answer:
The answer is B. standardized products
Explanation:
Monopolistic Competition has the following characteristics :
1. There large numbers of buyers and sellers
2. The products offered by sellers are close substitutes for the products offered by another seller.
3. The costs associated with entry and exit are low.
4. Sellers differentiate their products through advertising, branding etc.
Know that the most distinguishable factor in this market is product differentiation or standardized products.
The extent to which the seller is successful in product differentiation determines pricing power in the market.
The demand curve in this market is downward sloping i.e increase in price will lead to decrease in quantity demanded. This market is similar to perfectly competitive market.
The economic profit will fall to zero in the long run because the entry costs are not high.
