Answer:

B) 10.75%.

Explanation:

Marginal tax bracket = 33%

The 20 year old bond is being priced to yield 7.2%

We are required to find the equivalent taxable yield that this bond is going to offer.

Equivalent taxable yield =

Yield/(1-tax%)

= 7.2%/(1-33%)

= 10.75%

this bond would offer an equivalent taxable yield of 10.75%

Suppose the typical Buffalo Bills fan has the following demand curve for Bills football games: P = 120 – 10G where G is the numb
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

(a) If the Bills want to sell tickets to all 8 games by selling eight individual tickets, they have to set the price P = 120 − 10(8) = 120 − 80 = $40. This yields revenue of $40(8) = $320 from each fan.

(b) If the Bills practice second degree price discrimination, they can effectively charge

P = 120 − 10(1) = 120 − 10 = $110 for single games,

P = 110 + 100 + 90 + 80 = $380 = $95/ticket for a 4-game package, and

P = 110 + 100 + 90 + 80 + 70 + 60 + 50 +40 = $600 = $75/ticket for an 8-game package.

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

The company paid $278,031

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

A company bought a parcel of land twenty years ago. The land is currently worth $575,000. The yearly appreciation rate has been 3.7%.

<u>To calculate the past value of the land, we need to use the following formula:</u>

PV= FV/(1+i)^n

PV= present value (20 years ago)

n= 20

FV= 575,000

i= 0.037

PV= 575,000 / (1.037^20)

PV= $278,031

Imagine a linear demand curve graphed with Quantity on the x-axis and Price on the y-axis. We know the middle of the curve is th
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

A. That's the point where total revenue is maximized

Explanation:

Demand Curve is a downward sloping curve representing inverse  relationship between price & quantity demanded.

Elasticity of Demand is the responsiveness of quantity demanded to price change. It can be measured geometrically on a demand curve point by :

Demand curve segment below the point / Demand curve segment above the point.

This way the elasticity keeps on decreasing as we move downwards on the demand curve [Ed=∞ to Ed >1 to Ed = 1 to Ed < 1 to Ed = 0] i.e [from perfectly elastic to elastic to unitary elastic to inelastic to perfectly inelastic demand].

If Demand is Elastic [Ed >1] : There is negative relationship between price and Total Revenue. This point is on the upper segment of demand curve as per geometric method, P- TR negative relationship implies that TR can be increased by decreasing Price.

If Demand is Inelastic [Ed <1] : There is positive relationship between price &total revenue. This point is on the lower segment of demand curve as per geometric method, P-TR positive relationship implies that TR can be increased by increasing price.

So: The best Total Revenue Maximising point is on the middle of demand curve where demand is unitary elastic [Ed=1] - as any other deviation from this point would create an incentive to change price to generate higher revenue.
