Question: The demand function for widgets is given by D(P) = 16 − 2P. Compute the change inconsumer surplus when price of a widget increases for $1 to $3. Illustrate your result graphically
Answer:
For price of a widget equal to $1 consumer surplus is
D(1) = 16 - 2(1) = 14
CS₁ = ½ × (8 – 1) × D(1) = ½ × 7 × 14 = 49.
When price is equal to $3 consumer surplus is
D(3) = 16 - 2(3) = 10
CS₃ = ½ × (8 – 3) × D(3) = ½ × 5 × 10 = 25
Answer:
Th answer is: net income for year 2 is $45,000
Explanation:
We must first determine the equity for both years (equity= assets - liabilities)
- Equity year 1 = $940,000 - $300,000 = $640,000
- Equity year 2 = $995,000 - $270,000 = $725,000
Then we calculate the change in equity:
- change in equity = $725,000 - $640,000 = $85,000
Finally to determine the net income or year 2 we use the following formula:
Net income (Y2)= change in equity - additional investments + dividends paid
net income (Y2) = $85,000 -$73,000 + $33,000 = $45,000
Answer:
Offshoring
Explanation:
offshoring is the process of moving an aspect of a business process overseas with the intention of reducing cost.
A firm can move its manufacturing process from its own parent country to another country (usually where the labour rate and cost of raw materials is cheap compared to what it obtainable in its home country) in other to reduce its cost of production thereby increasing its added value.
From the above explanation, we can conclude that Prextos is planning to employ Offshoring to cut down losses.
