Consumer surplus is the difference between the total amount a consumer is willing to pay for an item and what they actually pay. The total amount that Natasha, Nelson and Nikolai are willing to pay for the flashlight is $34, the amount they do pay is $20. So, the total consumer surplus for them is $14.

Production estimates for July are as follows:
LenKa [72]

Answer:

d. 234,000 lbs. of A; e. 39,000 lbs. of B

Explanation:

For computing the number of pounds first we have to find out the production units which is shown below:

Production units = Sales units + ending inventory units - beginning inventory units

= 76,000 units + 10,500 units - 8,500 units

= 78,000 units

Now number of material pounds required is

Direct material            A          B  

One unit requires           3 lbs 1 ÷ 2 lbs

Multiply 78000 unit requires   234,000 39,000

We simply multiplied the production units with the required unit of each material i.e A and B so that the accurate number of pounds could arrive

Doss [256]

Answer:

$2,122,900

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what The Gross margin for September was

First step is to determine the variable costs

Variable costs= (317 * 7,100) + (44*7,100) + (22*7,100)

Variable costs= 2,250,700 + 312,400 + 156,200

Variable costs= $2,719,300

Now let determine the Gross margin

Using this formula

GM=Sales-VC

Let plug in the formula

Gross margin = (682 * 7,100) - 2,719,300

Gross margin = $2,122,900

Therefore The gross margin for September was:$2,122,900

A company is evaluating a new 4-year project. The equipment necessary for the project will cost $3,500,000 and can be sold for $
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

d) $677,532.

Explanation:

1.

Written down value of the equipment after 4 years = Cost x ( 100% - 1st year MACRS - Second-year MACRS - Third-year MACRS - Fourth-year MACRS ) = $3,500,000 x ( 100% - 20% - 32% - 19.20% - 11.52% ) = $604,800

2.

Now calculate the gain on the sale of equipment

Gain on the sale of equipment = Sale Price - Written down Value after 4 years = $715,000 - $604,800 = $110,200

3.

Tax owed = Gain on the sale x Tax rate = $110,200 x 34% = $37,468

After-tax salvage value = Sales price - Tax = $715,000 - $37,468 = $677,532

Which statement about deposits are true? Check all that apply
LuckyWell [14K]

The statements that are true about deposits is:

A. Deposits increase the checking account balance

C. Deposited money can be transferred electronically from one bank to another

E. You can deposit a greater amount than the balance in the account

D. You cannot make a deposit at a ATM. This is false because with an ATM you can make a deposit into an account. If you were using a credit card, there is no account to put money into, it just charges to a card you have to then pay off.

B. A deposit is money that is subtracted from a bank account. When you deposit money, you are adding money into a bank account. When you withdraw money you are subtracting money into a bank account. Because this question refers to subtracting from a bank account, this is false.

Complete the following table by indicating whether or not each scenario is an example of price discrimination.
Monica [59]

Answer: yes; no

Explanation:

Price discrimination is an exploitative  selling strategy that  sellers use to try to charge their customers on  different prices for the same product or service.

Last-minute "rush" tickets can be purchased for most Broadway theater shows at a discounted price. They are typically distributed via lottery or on a first-come, first-served basis a few hours before the show. Assume that the theater in question does not hold seats in reserve for this purpose, but rather offers rush tickets only for seats not sold before the day of the performance......... YES PRICE DISCRIMINATION OCCURS

---.>In this case, the groups are  segmented into those who paid earlier at normal price and those who paid in relation to the rush at discounted price, A case  price discrimination arises because the  people who  have paid more than others for a same show, would not be reserved seats which means that  the product was same for the two type of consumers but not the same price

Horizon Wireless offers various features "à la carte" that a customer may add to his or her calling plan, such as a text messaging package, a data package, and an Internet package. NO PRICE DISCRIMINATION

---->This is because Because Horizon Wireless is offering the different features  with  a la carte pricing, where every customer is subject to the same pricing irrespective  of his or her calling plan.

If the price of a data  package or internet  were different for a customer with a more expensive calling plan, then Horizon Wireless might be attempting to identify thier different consumer types and try to  exploit the differences in their willingness to pay.
