Answer:

b. 9.75%

Explanation:

When a partner invests in a business, he/she expects to get return on his equity in the business. The major reason for this is to compare his/her return in the partnership business with the return he/she could get elsewhere.

The return on partner equity is calculated by dividing his/her net income from the partnership business by his/her average capital for the period.

The formula is given below:

<u> Net income       </u>  x 100

Average capital

Average capital  = <u>Opening capital balance + Closing capital balance</u>

                                                                    2

For Carter Pearson, the average capital is =<u> $55,500 + $62,500</u>

                                                                                   2

= $59,000

The return on equity will be: <u>$5,750  </u> x 100

                                                $59,000

= 9.7457

= 9.75%   - approximate to two decimal point.

Mkey [24]

Answer:

C. Higher prices but lower total revenue from marijuana sales.

Explanation:

The above scenario totally explains inelastic demand. Inelastic demand is when the buyer’s demand does not change as much as the price changes. When price increases by 20% and demand decreases by only 1%, demand is said to be inelastic.

When the price increases, people will still purchase roughly the same amount of the good or service as they did prior to the increase because their needs stay the same. A similar situation exists when there is a decrease in price demand will not increase substantially because consumers only have a limited need for the product.

Laredo advertises a reward for the return of his lost dog. Miguel, who does not know of the reward, finds and returns the dog, w
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

b. did not know of the reward when he returned the dog.

Explanation:

Laredo advertises for getting his dog back. This does not infer that the dog will only be returned when the reward will be paid.

Miguel did not know about the reward, so the reward in this case is not mandatory to be paid, but if Laredo initiates the reward himself, that can be accepted.

This is a clear demonstration of being kind and get what you know.

So if you do not know the facts, you are on fault.

Miguel owns a bicycle-based courier service named Speed2U. The brand's focus is on fast delivery within 15 minutes from anywhere
Vitek1552 [10]

Miguel did not focus on differentiation. Differentiation in marketing refers to that thing about your company or product that makes you unique and better than everyone else. Speed2U's competitive advantage is their delivery speed. Miguel should have responded that what makes Speed2U unique is their ability to deliver in 15 minutes or less.

klio [65]

Answer:

To evaluate the choice, we have to calculate the present value of future cash flows and compare it with the cost. We use the following formula

    present value    =  C ×  [ \frac{1 - (1 + i)^{-n} }{i} ]​

where

                     C = yearly payments = 75000

                     i =  interest rate  = 8%

                     n = no. of years   = 15

put the given values in above equation, we get

       Present value = 75000 ×8.559478688

                               = 641,961

Since the present value of cash flow 641,961 is less than the cost 750,000, I would not recommend it.

If Interest rate = 5%, then:

Do the same procedure as above but take i=5%

        Present value = 75000 × 10.37965804

                                = 778,474

Since the present value of future cash flows 778,474 is greater than the cost 750,000, I would recommend it.
