Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": Accept the USA distributor demand. It is even better for Tetsu compared to Japan.

Explanation:

Considering both the distributors in Japan and the U.S. request a 20% margin for the retails of Tetsu's devices, accepting the offer of the U.S. company represents a good deal. Businesses are not handled the same in Japan and the U.S. Both countries have different policies. Tetsu must consider that the U.S. is a bigger market and that its devices are imported in the U.S., implying there could be tariffs imposed. Tough, if the U.S. distributor requests the same margin a Japanese distributor does to start businesses, <em>the deal will be in Tetsu's favor</em>.

labwork [276]

Answer:

Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

We have to use MM proposition that cost of equity will change itself in such a manner so that it can take care of its debt.

Cost of equity:

= WACC of all equity firm + (WACC of all equity - Cost of debt ) × (Debt -to-equity ratio)

At the beginning, when there was no debt,

WACC = cost of equity = 10%

Levered cost of equity:

= 10% + ( 10% - 6%) × 0.2

= 10.8%

Therefore, Taggart's levered cost of equity would be closest to 11%.

Tanzania [10]

Answer:

4. The demand for gasoline-powered automobiles would increase and the equilibrium price of gasoline-powered automobiles would increase.

Explanation:

Substitute goods are goods that can be used in place of each other.

If the price of electric automobiles rises, the automobile becomes more expensive for consumers. Consumers would reduce the quantity demanded of the electric automobile and shift its demand to gas powered automobiles.

As a result, the demand for gas automobiles increases and the equilibrium price would increase too.

To manufacture 3,000 pairs of sandals in a week, a firm can use 3,600 workers and 135 machines or 270 machines and 3,300 workers
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

3,600 workers and 135 machines is more technically efficient.

Explanation:

a. For 3,600 workers and 135 machines

Worker technical efficiency = 3,600/3,000 = $120%

Machine technical efficiency = 135 / 3,000 = 4.50%

Average technical efficiency = (120% + 4.5%) / 2 = 62.25%

b. For 270 machines and 3,300 workers.

Worker technical efficiency = 270/3,000 = $9%

Machine technical efficiency = 3,300 / 3,000 = 110%

Average technical efficiency = (9% + 110%) / 2 = 59.50%

Conclusion

Since the average technical efficiency of 62.25% is higher than 59.50%, 3,600 workers and 135 machines is more technically efficient.
