Answer:
Answer explained below
Explanation:
decrease in consumer surplus = 0.5(initial number of bottles - final number)*(final price-initial price) + (final price-initial price)*(final number)
where initial number of bottles = 25
final number of bottles = 15
initial price = $390
final price = $390
substituting these values, we have
- decrease in consumer surplus = 0.5(25-15)(450-390) + (450-390)15 = 1200
Consumer surplus decreases by 1200
- Consumers will buy the good as long as marginal benefit is greater than or equal price.
Thus quantity demanded will be 2 from the table
Consumer surplus = 240- market price = 240 -220= 20
Consumers total benefit = 220*quantity demanded = 220*2= 440
Answer:
$6.00
Explanation:
Given data
quantity demanded ( x ) ∝ 1 / p^3 for p > 1
when p = $10/unit , x = 64
initial cost = $140, cost per unit = $4
<u>Determine the price that will yield a maximum profit </u>
x = k/p^3 ----- ( 1 ). when x = 64 , p = $10 , k = constant
64 = k/10^3
k = 64 * ( 10^3 )
= 64000
back to equation 1
x = 64000 / p^3
∴ p = 40 / ∛x
next calculate the value of revenue generated
Revenue(Rx) = P(price ) * x ( quantity )
= 40 / ∛x * x = 40 x^2/3
next calculate Total cost of product
C(x) = 140 + 4x
Maximum Profit generated = R(x) - C(x) = 0
= 40x^2/3 - 140 + 4x = 0
= 40(2/3) x^(2/3 -1) - 0 - 4 = 0
∴ ∛x = 20/3 ∴ x = (20/3 ) ^3 = 296
profit is maximum at x(quantity demanded ) = 296 units
hence the price that will yield a maximum profit
P = 40 / ∛x
= ( 40 / (20/3) ) = $6
Answer:
false
Explanation:
S corporation form of business ownership is one type of corporation. It is a corporation whose shareholders have elected to become an S corporation. The formation of this form of business structure is not easy. First, a corporation is formed as per the requirements of the laws.

1. Should not have more than 100 shareholders
2. Shareholders should be individual or some exempt entities.
3. Have one class of stock
Answer:
7.71%
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the bond's nominal coupon interest rate
First step is to determine the PMT using Financial calculator
FV = $1,000
N= 25 × 2 = 50 periods ( semi-annual)
i/y=9.25/2=4.63
PV= - 850
PMT=?
Hence,
PMT=38.55
Second step is to calculate the Annual coupon Payment
Annual coupon Payment =38.55x2
Annual coupon Payement= 77.10
Now let determine the bond's nominal coupon interest rate using this formula
Nominal coupon rate= Annual coupon payment/par value
Let plug in the formula
Nominal coupon rate=77.10/1000
Nominal coupon rate=7.71%
Therefore the bond's nominal coupon interest rate is 7.71%
