Answer:

Since Allitron and Donovan engage in interstate commerce, they are regulated by the Sherman Antitrust Act. They incurred in collusion, which is illegal since they are restraining interstate commerce. Since they are competitors, they are prohibited from simply dividing sales territories, they should instead be competing for who serves them better.

Several punishments can result from this type of behavior:

  • the companies can be fined with up to $1 million each
  • their upper management can be sent to jail for up to 3 years
  • the Department of Justice should take actions that limit this

timama [110]

The perpetual equivalent annual cost is - $35013

<h3 /><h3>The perpetual annual cost calculation</h3>

interest i = 10%

Period = n = 7 years

Formula

A/F = i/(1+i)^n-1

= 0.1/(1+0.1)^7-1

= 0.1054

The perpetual annual cost

= -250000*0.1-95000(0.1054)

= -25000-10013

= - 35013

Therefore the perpetual equivalent annual cost is   $35013

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer: Sell before assembly, the company will be better off by $1 per unit.

Explanation:

To solve the above question, we need to calculate the incremental profit or loss first. This will be:

= After assembling sales value - Unassembled unit sales value - Coat if further processing

= $87 - $62 - $26

= -$1

Since there is an incremental loss of $1, then the correct answer is "Sell before assembly, the company will be better off by $1 per unit".
