Thirty-five members of the Ortiz extended family were spread across three states—Illinois, New York and Florida—and they rarely

were able to get everyone together. For Thanksgiving 2018, Mary Elizabeth Ortiz decided to surprise her family by booking a mountain retreat for the entire clan. She especially wanted to celebrate her uncle's return from overseas military service. On September 15, 2018, Mary rented a spectacular lodge in the Tennessee Smoky Mountains with over 20 bedrooms and an incredible view, paying in advance the full $2,500 per night fee for 3 evenings, but not purchasing travel insurance. The lodge had the following cancellation policy: "A sixty (60) day notice is required for cancellation. Cancellations that are made within 60 days of the arrival date, for any reason, forfeit the full advance payment and reservation deposit. You are advised to purchase travel insurance separately if cancellation costs are a concern." The rental contract also stated that the only exception would be for "acts of God, such as fires or earthquakes." One week before Thanksgiving, Mary's uncle had a heart attack and was hospitalized. The next day, November 16, 2018, Mary cancelled the reservation, and requested a full refund, which the lodge refused to provide. Does Mary have a claim for the return of her $7,500?

For each of the following scenarios, identify the number of firms present, the type of product, and the appropriate market model
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

Number of Firms - many

Type of Product - differentiated

Market Model - monopolistic competition

Number of Firms - many  

Type of Product - standardised  

Market Model - perfect competition

Number of Firms - few  

Type of Product - standardised  

Market Model - oligopoly

Number of Firms - one

Type of Product - unique

Market Model - monopoly

Explanation:

A perfect competition is characterized by many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.   In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit.  If in the short run firms are earning economic profit, in the long run firms would enter into the industry. This would drive economic profit to zero.  

Also, if in the short run, firms are earning economic loss, in the long run, firms would exit the industry until economic profit falls to zero.  

A monopolistic competition is when there are many firms selling differentiated products in an industry. A monopoly has characteristics of both a monopoly and a perfect competition. the demand curve is downward sloping. it sets the price for its goods and services.

An example of monopolistic competition are restaurants  

A monopoly is when there is only one firm operating in an industry. there are usually high barriers to entry of firms. the demand curve is downward sloping. it sets the price for its goods and services.

An example of a monopoly is a utility company

An Oligopoly is when there are few large firms operating in an industry. While, a monopoly is when there is only one firm operating in an industry.

Oligopolies are characterised by:

  • price setting firms  
  • profit maximisation
  • high barriers to entry or exit of firms
  • downward sloping demand curve

The condensed financial statements of Marks Company for the years 2017-2018 are presented below: Marks Company Comparative Balan
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

Marks Company

Computation of Financial Ratios:

(a) Current ratio at 12/31/18 =  Current Assets/Current Liabilities = $1,1350,000/$339,000 = 3.35

(b) Acid test ratio at 12/31/18 = (Current Assets - Inventory)/Current Liabilities =  $760,000/$339,000 = 2.24

(c) Accounts receivable turnover in 2018 = Net Credit Sales/Average Accounts Receivable = $2,420,000/$328,000 = 7.37 times

(d) Inventory turnover in 2018 = Sales/Average Inventory = $2,420,000/$357,000 = 6.77 times or every 54 days.

(e) Profit margin on sales in 2018:

i) Gross Profit Margin = Gross Profit/Sales x 100 = $778,000/$2,420,000 x 100 = 32%

ii) Net Profit Margin  = Net Income/Sales x 100 = $278,000/$2,420,000 x 100 = 11.49%

(f) Earnings per share in 2018 = Earnings or Net Income divided by outstanding number of shares = $278,000/152,100 = $1.82

(g) Return on common stockholders’ equity in 2018 = Net Income divided by Common Equity = $278,000/$1,961,000 x 100 = 14.18%

(h) Price earnings ratio at 12/31/18 = Market price per share divided by earnings per share = $80/$1.82 = $43.95

(i) Debt to assets at 12/31/18 = Total Debts/Total Assets = $744,000/$2,705,000 x 100 =  27%

(j) Book value per share at 12/31/18 = Shareholders' Equity divided by number of outstanding shares = $1,961,00/152,100 = $12.89

Explanation:

a) Current Ratio = Current Assets/Current Liabilities

Current Assets for 2018:

Cash $404,000

Accounts Receivable $356,000

Inventories $375,000

Total = $1,135,000

Current Liabilities for 2018:

Accounts Payable $339,000

Dividends Payable $0

Total = $339,000

This liquidity ratio measures the entity's ability to pay off its current obligations with its liquid assets.  Current assets are assets that can easily be turned to cash within the calendar year.

b) Acid Test Ratio is also a liquidity ratio that evaluates an entity's ability to pay off its current obligations with current assets when inventory is excluded.  Inventory is not regarded as very liquid, especially given the longer time it may take to turn it over to cash.

c) Accounts Receivable Turnover measures the effectiveness of the company to collect its receivables resulting from the credit sales.  It shows how sales on credit are managed by evaluating the credit policy, collection process, and customers' creditworthiness.  In quantitative terms, it measures how many times receivables are converted to cash in a period.

d) Inventory Turnover measures the number of times average inventory was turned over to sales within a period.  The average inventory is the beginning and ending inventories divided by 2.  It is very useful in inventory decisions, especially pricing, production or purchase, etc.

e) Profit margin on sales is the gross profit or net income expressed as a percentage of sales.  The Gross profit margin measures the ability of management to create profit from its sales revenue when compared with the costs of sales.  The net profit margin measures the ability of the management to create value for the stockholders after deducting all expenses for running the business.

f) Earnings per share:  This is a profitability ratio that compares the net income to the number of outstanding shares.

g) Return on common stockholders’ equity: This ratio measures the company's ability to generate returns for common stockholders.  It is measured as net income for common equity divided by the common stockholders' equity.

h) Price earnings ratio: This ratio expresses the dollar amount which an investor can invest in a company in order to earn a dollar income.  It is used to value investment in a company.

i) Debts to Assets: This is a financial leverage ratio that tells the percentage of assets or a company's resources that is financed by creditors.

j) Book value per share: This is a market value measure that shows the value of net assets (equity) divided by the outstanding shares.  It is not the same as the market value per share, which reflects investors sentiments.  The book value per share compares the book value of equity with the number of shares.  It is used by investors to gauge if a stock is undervalued or not.
