Answer:

The correct answer is D) An increase in market demand from D0 to D1

Explanation:

In a competitive market, there are enough firms so that no firm can influence prices significantly.

In such conditions, and holding all other variables constant, a increase in market price from P1 to P2 can only result from an increase in demand.

If more consumers want a product, and supply remains the same, the price of it will rise.

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

The chosen option (considering enrollment costs and opportunity cost) is:

b) College course.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Costs/Benefits

                           College Course          Community Course

Cost                              $2,600                         $1,390

Opportunity costs         -2,080                          2,080

Net costs                         $520                        $3,470

Distance to course      0.40 miles                    16 miles

                                  (walking distance)      (driving distance)

Timing of course          Weekday                     Weekend

Number of meetings    16                                 8

b) With the College course option, you will earn $2,080 ($260 * 8) weekdays to offset part of the enrollment cost.  With the Community course option, $2,080 will be lost in opportunity cost, thereby increasing the total costs incurred.  These costs are apart from the driving costs associated with traveling 16 miles to the Community Course at the local library.

Equipment A/c       Dr. $71,890

To cash                                           $3,790

To accounts payable                     $68,100

(To record the purchase of equipment)

Workings:

Equipment value:

= Purchase price + Sales tax + Freight charges for shipment of equipment + Installation of equipment

= 64,000 +4,100 + 890 + 2,900

= $71,890

Cash Paid:

= Freight charges for shipment of equipment + Installation of equipment

= 890 + 2,900

= $3,790

Accounts payable = Purchase price + Sales tax

                               = 64,000 +4,100

                               = $68,100

(2)

Prepaid Insurance A/c    Dr. $1,090

To cash A/c                                             $1,090

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

(1) Payback period is 4.588 years or 4 years and 215 days

(2) 5.13%

Explanation:

(1)

Payback period is the time period in which Initial Investment made in the project is recovered in the form of cash inflows.

Payback period = Initial Investment / Annual net cash flow

Payback period = $390,000 / $85,000 = 4.588 years = 4 years and 215 days

(2)

As per given data

Net Income = $20,000

Initial Investment = $390,000

Annual rate of return is the ration of net income to the investment made in the project.

Annual rate of return = Annual net Income / Initial Investment  

Annual rate of return = ($20,000 / $390,000) x 100 = 5.13%

Solnce55 [7]

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

Number of units sold = 76000

Percentage repair= 2%

Estimated defective units = Percentage repair × Units sold = 2% × 76000 = 1520

Actual defective units = 490 + 350 + 210 = 1050

Unclaimed warranty = Estimated defective units - Actual defective units = 1520 - 1050 = 470

Repair cost = $50

Warranty expense = 470 × $50 = $23500

The journal entry will then be:

Debit: Product warranty expense = $23500
