"Only one firm produces and sells soccer balls in the country of Wiknam, and as the story begins, international trade in soccer
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) since MR=MC, then 15-2Q=3+Q. So, the monopolist produce Q=4

price P=15-Q=10-4=6

profit=6*3-TC=18-(3+4+0.5*4^2)=3

b)since the P=6=6, domestic production will stay the same. The domestic consumption will stay the same. For Wilknam, it will import soccer balls.

c)yes, it holds that Wiknam will be an importer. Because the price for domestic production is 6 which is same as the world price 6.

d)Since the price within country is the same with price out of country, and also, MC=3+Q=7>6, Wiknam will import soccer balls. The monopolist market will become a competitive market.Even though the price won't change,the product will be of high quality and so on. The market will become more equilibrium.

The most recent financial statements for Xporter, Inc., are shown here:
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Solution :

Expected sales = current sales x (1 + projected sale next year increase)

                         = 5,700 x (1 + 15%)

                         = $ 6555

Expected cost = current cost x (1 + projected sale next year increase)

                       = 4200 x (1 + 15%)

                       = $ 4830

Taxable income = 1500 x ( 1 + 15%)

                           = $ 1725

Taxes (34%)  = 510 x (1+15%)

                     = $ 586.5

Net income = sales - cost - taxes

                   = 6555 - 4830 - 586.5

                   = $ 1138.5

Calculation of total asset :

Current asset = 3,900 x 1.15

                      = $ 4485

Fixed asset   = 8100 x 1.15

                      = $ 9315

Total asset = 4485 + 9315

                  = $ 13800

Calculation of total liabilities

Current liabilities = 2200 x 1.15

                            = $ 2530

Long term debt = $ 3,750

Equity = $ 6050 + (1138.5 x 0.50 )

          = $ 7189

Total liabilities  = $ 2530 + $ 3,750 + $ 7189

                          = $ 13, 469

Therefore the external financial needed is = $ 13800 - $ 13, 469

                                                                       = $ 331

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

This business idea worth $430,127 today

Explanation:

Today value of the future cash flows can be calculated by discounting the cash flows on the given discount rate. It is called the present value and sum of present value of all cash flows is called Net present value.

We use following format to calculate NPV for the given business idea

Years                                     1                  2                  3

Cash Flows                      $5,600       $48,200      $125,000

Sale Proceeds                                                         $450,000

Net Cash Flows               $5,600       $48,200      $575,000

Discount Factor    14%    0.8772        0.7695        0.6750

Present values                 $4,912.32   $37,089.9    $388,125

Net present value of business idea = $4,912.32 + $37,089.9 + $388,125

NPV = 430,127.22

Shoreline Insurance deposited $27,000 in an account paying 4 compounded daily on April 2 and deposited an additional $4,200 in t
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Balance on balance on July 1 is $31490.67

Explanation:

given data

deposited P =  $27,000

time = April 2  to May 12 = 40 days

rate = 4 % = 0.04

solution

we get here first compound amount that is express as

amount = P × (1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}     ...................1

put her value

amount = 27000 ×  (1+\frac{0.04}{365})^{(365\times \frac{40}{365})}  

amount = $27118.60

and

now we add here $4,200 in $27118.60 that will be

new principal P = $31318.60

and time t = 12 may to July 1 = 50 days

we get here amount that is put value in equation 1 we get

amount = $31318.60 ×  (1+\frac{0.04}{365})^{(365\times \frac{50}{365})}

solve it we get

amount = $31490.67

so that balance on balance on July 1 is $31490.67
