A principle under which the intent to form a contract will be judged by outward, objective facts as interpreted by a reasonable
andriy [413]

Answer:

Objective Theory

Explanation:

The Objective theory states that the intent to form a contract will be judged by outward objective facts such as the words and actions of the party instead of the secret, subjective intentions. This theory replaced the Subjective theory in the late nineteenth century. The former theory was of the opinion that the meeting of minds, which translates to the unexpressed intentions of the party would form a basis for interpreting the intent to form a contract.

The objective theory is important as it advocates freedom to a fair hearing, freedom of contract, and personal independence or sovereignty.

Granite State Airlines serves the route between New York and Portsmouth, NH, with a single-flight-daily 100-seat aircraft. The o
TEA [102]

Answer:

Given data: One flight with total seats = 100

Full fare passengers, cost per ticket=$150, mean=56 passengers, SD=23

Discount fare passengers, cost per ticket=$100, mean=88 passengers, SD=44

(a) Here, though there is a hint to use the CDF, since the confidence interval is not given we will make some simplying assumptions that will reduce the complexity of the question, of course keeping the question statistically correct.

this question wants us to maximize total revenue per flight (one way), we can do that by taking only full fare passengers or total revenue will be 150*100=$15,000, but since historical probability shows a mean of 56 with a standard deviation of 23, we can assume in best case scenario total full fare ticket passengers will be 56+23=79, leaving 21 tickets for discount passenger, in this case the total revenues will be 79*150+21*100=$13,950

(b) Now, the new constrained policy is giving a clear cut number of seats to each category of pasengers, 44 for discount (total revenues 44*100) and 56 for full fare (total revenues 56*150) both of which are within the probabilities given earlier (full fare mean=56, discount mean=88). Total revenues in case will be 44*100+56*150=$12,800.

(c) Gain is the difference of the excess revenues in both cases of optimal total revenues and limited seats policy or answer (a) - answer (b) = $13,950- $12,800=$1,150

(d) Realistically speaking, there is no answer for this question without a clear cut confidence interval. Another simplifying assumption we can make here is taking the mean passengers as expected bookings (can be tweaked once confidence interval or degree of significance is given). so total revenues in this case will be 44*100 from discount and 56*150 from full fare passengers. That is still similar to answer (c) due to our assumption/lack of constraints, so our optimal booking will be 54 full fare tickets and 44 discount passenger tickets. You can also take worst case scenario by subtracting SD of each passenger type from the mean or go the best case scenario in which SD of full fare will be added to the mean while the pending seats (left over from 100) will be the total to discount fare for optimal revenue collection.

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

a. 9%

b. Yes, the firm earning an economic profit of 2%

c. Yes, Industry will see entry or exits

d. Rate of return of economy = 7%

Explanation:

a. Percentage rate of return = Earning ÷ Investment by founders × 100

= $18 ÷ $200 × 100

= 9%

b. Company rate of profit - Rate of profit of economy

= 9% - 7%

= 2% > 0

Yes, the firm earning an economic profit of 2%

c. Yes, Industry will see entry or exits because industry is competitive in nature and would to like to compete to others by satisfying the consumers . In perfect competitive markets there will be no entry or exits and critical characteristics reason companies are free for entry and exit for marginal profits.

d. Industry is competitive , there will be supplier to serve the market and its hard to decide the price of the product.

Hence, the rate of return long run equilibrium earned by firm = Rate of return of economy = 7%

liberstina [14]

Answer:

$863,689.50

Explanation:

The computation of the present value of the terminal value is shown below:

The terminal value at the end of the third year is

=  Third year Cash flows × (1 + growth rate) ÷ (required rate of return - growth rate)

= $64,000 × (1 + 2%) ÷ (8% - 2%)

= $1,088,000

Now its present value is

= terminal value at the end of the third year ÷ (1 + rate of interest)^number of years

= $1,088,000 ÷ (1 + 8%)^3

= $863,689.50

This is the answer but the same is not provided in the given options
