Explanation:

In the short run, there must be at least one fixed factor of production.

Fixed factor of production: refers to the idea of when the quantity of a factor of production can't be changed over a fixed time period.

Total fixed cost stays the same whether the production increases or decreases.

Example:

The fixed factor of production in case of a dentist are; office rent and some of the dental equipment.

Capital cost is usually the most common fixed factor of production in the short run. Other common fixed factors of production include; rent, insurance, utility bills, and certain salaries

a. Golf course

Capital cost of land, golf carts, golf equipment costs are most likely to be fixed factors of production.

b. Movie theater

Rental, Insurance, and utility bills costs are most likely to be fixed factors of production, whereas ticket sales, popcorn and soft drinks sales depend upon the number of customers hence they are variable factors of production.

c. Law office

Office rent, utility bills, certain staff salary costs are most likely to be fixed factors of production.

d. Brewery

Capital cost of land, brewing equipment costs are most likely to be fixed factors of production.

e. Amusement park

Capital cost of land, rides, infrastructure etc costs are most likely to be fixed factors of production.

The value of what you owe minus what you owe is called
aliina [53]
Hey there!

I think you meant to type "value of what you <em>own</em> minus what you owe". Let me know if this assumption isn't correct, though I don't know what the value of what you owe is besides... ya know, what you owe. 

The value of what you own is called you assets. This can include anything of value that you own, particularly your pricier possessions. Think of a vintage family heirloom or a highly–priced article of clothing. Assets, though, includes the value <em>everything</em> that you own that you could possibly put a price tag on if you were certain someone would buy it. 

What you owe is called your liability. This is basically any debt that you owe anyone, whether it be your buddy who footed your lunch bill the other day when you didn't have enough cash or a student loan you used to pay for college. 

Your assets minus your liability is called your net worth. This is basically what you are worth in total. This makes sense, since any debt you owe will be taken out of the amount that you are worth or any money that you have.

Net worth will be your answer. 

Hope this helped you out! :-)

Last year Bold and Best accounted for 56.5% of Baldwin's sales. Over the next few years, what should worry Baldwin's management
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

4 worries about Bold and Best (BB) are:

- Demand for BB may fall in the next few years, as customers are now less interested in purchasing BB or there is another substitute product for BB which is available in the market.

- Input costs/Production cost for BB may rise in the next few years, may be because of shortage of raw materials.

- The decline in BB sales may affect Baldwin's profitability as a whole because BB's revenue is currently the largest portion of the total revenue.

- Real purchasing power of customers fall because of a rise in expected inflation in the economy, which will lead to a fall in sales of BB.

A new investment opportunity for you is an annuity that pays $550 at the beginning of each year for 3 years. You could earn 5.5%
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

$1,565.48

Explanation:

This is an annuity due type of question since the recurring payments are made at the beginning of each year unlike Ordinary annuity whose payments occur at the end of each period.

With a financial calculator on beginning mode "BGN", use the following inputs to find the PV;

Total duration of investment; N = 3

Recurring payment; PMT = 550

Interest rate; I/Y = 5.5%

One time cashflows; FV = 0

then compute for Present value ; CPT PV = 1,565.476

Therefore, the most you should pay is $1,565.48

Carter Pearson is a partner in Event Promoters. His beginning partnership capital balance for the current year is $55,500, and h
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

b. 9.75%

Explanation:

When a partner invests in a business, he/she expects to get return on his equity in the business. The major reason for this is to compare his/her return in the partnership business with the return he/she could get elsewhere.

The return on partner equity is calculated by dividing his/her net income from the partnership business by his/her average capital for the period.

The formula is given below:

<u> Net income       </u>  x 100

Average capital

Average capital  = <u>Opening capital balance + Closing capital balance</u>

                                                                    2

For Carter Pearson, the average capital is =<u> $55,500 + $62,500</u>

                                                                                   2

= $59,000

The return on equity will be: <u>$5,750  </u> x 100

                                                $59,000

= 9.7457

= 9.75%   - approximate to two decimal point.
