Answer:

a.  ATC curve to shift upward

Explanation:

Average cost pricing is a form of pricing that appears as one of the ways in which the government operates a monopoly market. The government, however, may utilize average cost pricing as a tool to oversee prices monopolists may charge.

In other words, this implies that Monopolists always incline to produce less than the optimal amount boosting the prices up.

Hence, the problem with average-cost pricing regulation is that once it is in place, there is a tendency for the: "Average Total Cost curve to shift upward." This can be a result of an increase in output and reduction price

Ferris Company began January with 6,000 units of its principal product. The cost of each unit is $8. Merchandise transactions fo
makkiz [27]

Answer and Explanation:

Ferris Company

1. Average cost periodic

Dollars $48,000+$ 105,000

= $153,000

Units $11,000+$6,000

= $17,000

153,000 / 17,000 = $9.00 Cost per unit

Cost of Goods Sold:

9,000 units × $9.00= $81,000

Ending Inventory:

8,000 units × $9.00= $72,000

2. Average cost perpetual Jan 5th sales

Dollars 48,000

Units 6000

48,000 / 6,000 = $8.00 Cost per unit

Cost of goods Sold:

3,000 units × $8.00= $24,000

Ending Inventory:

3,000 units × $8.00= $24,000

3. Average cost perpetual Jan 12th sales

Dollars 69,000

Units 8000

69,000 / 8,000 = $8.625 Cost per unit

Cost of Goods Sold:

2,000 units × $8.625

= $17,250

Ending Inventory:

6,000 units × $8.625

= $51,750

4. Average cost perpetual Jan 20th sales

Dollars 60,000+51,750

=111,750

Units 6000+6000

=12,000

111,750 / 12,000 = $9.3125 Cost per unit

Cost of Goods Sold:4,000 units ×$9.3125= $37,250

Ending Inventory:8,000 units × $9.3125= $74,500

Summary of Average Cost Perpetual

Cost of Goods Sold:

Jan 5 3,000 units= $24,000

Jan 12 2,000 units= 17,250

Jan 20 4,000units = 37,250

Total 9,000units = $78,500

For a bank, when a person deposits money into the bank, this: a creates a liability and an asset for the bank. b creates a liabi
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

The answer is A.

Explanation:

Bank deposits from customers create both a liability and an asset for the bank.

1. As a liability: The deposit is the customer's money. The bank is keeping the money for the customer. The customer can withdraw the fund any time.

2. As an asset: The money deposited by the customer can be used by the bank to generate revenue pending when the customer withdraws the money. The money not yet withdrawn by customers is still in the possession of the bank and the bank controls it.

7.37 For the net cash flow series, (a) determine the number of possible i* values using the two sign tests, (b) find the EROR us
nlexa [21]

Answer:

The answer is 25.19% .

Note: The values were not stated for the net series cash flows, during my research and i found the complete question and solved it.

Explanation:

<em>From the question given,</em>

<em>The first step is to make use of a table for the net cash flow series</em>

<em>Year                      1                  2                3              4             5             6</em>

<em>Net cash flow    $4100   $2000         $7000         $12000  $700       $800</em>

<em>Then,</em>

<em>Solution : MIRR is defined as modified internal rate of return, It accounts for the positive cash flows with reinvestment by using re-investment rate and negative cash flows are calculated at their present values to keep the fund aside by using finance rate. </em>

<em> As given also reinvestment rate = 20% and finance cost rate = 10%. </em>

<em> Now, from the table given of cash flows, we will calculate the future value of all cash flows in year 6. </em>

<em> FV = 4100*(1+0.20)^5 + 12000*(1+0.20)^2 + 800*(1+0.20)^0 = $28282.11 </em>

<em> Now,</em>

<em> By applying the rate of   we will computer teh PV of -ve cash flows : </em>

<em> PV = -2000/(1+0.1)^2 + -7000/(1+0.1)^3 + -700/(1+0.1)^5 = -$7346.73 </em>

<em> Now MIRR can be calculated by using the formula , MIRR = \√[n]{FV(positive cash flows/PV of negative cash flows)}-1 = \√[6]{28282.11/7346.74)}-1 </em>

<em> MIRR = 1.2519-1 = 0.2519 or 25.19% </em>

<em> Therefore, the only value Possible = 25.19% in this case.</em>
