Answer:

Position 02.

Explanation:

Each of the 04 teams have 12 games, hence a pair from one team plays the other four times. There are six possibilities of forming a pair in all the four teams, so in all 6x4=24 games were played among the teams. This also means that there is a possibility of 24 wins and 24 losses in all the four teams.  

First team= 7 W and 5 L

Second team = 8 W and 4 L

Worst team = 12 games = W + L ( From twice as many losses as wins we know 2W = L )

12 = W + 2W

12 = 3W

W = 4 and L = 8

For last team:

W = 24

W = 7 W + 8 W + 4 W + X = 24

19 W + X = 24 W

X = 5 W

Hence Billy's team is second

When the cross price elasticity between good X and other related goods is positive and very low firm X can be assumed to have?
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

c. a significant amount of market power 

Explanation:

Cross price elasticity measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded of a good to the changes in price of another good.

If the cross price elascitiy is postive, the goods are subsituites.

If the cross price elasticity is negative, the goods are complementary goods.

If the cross price elasticitiy is low the firm has market power. It means that it's consumers do not change the quantity demanded when the price of the good changes

If the cross price elasticitiy is high, the market has low market power.

I hope my answer helps you.

Leisure Enterprise’s total cost of producing speedboats is given by TC = 10 Q 3 – 4 Q 2 + 25 Q + 500. On the basis of this infor
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

The marginal cost of producing the 25th speedboat is 18,575.

Explanation:

Note that the given Leisure Enterprise’s total cost (TC) of producing speedboats is correctly stated as follows:

TC = 10Q^3 - 4Q^2 + 25^Q + 500 …….………….. (1)

Where Q represents the quantity of speedboats produced.

To obtain the marginal cost (MC) of producing speedboats, equation (1) is differentiated with respect to Q as follows:

MC = dTC/dQ = 30Q^2 - 8Q + 25 ………………… (2)

Finding the marginal cost (MC) of producing the 25th speedboat implies that Q = 25.

Substituting Q = 25 into equation (2), we have:

MC = (30 * 25^2) - (8 * 25) + 25 = 18,575

Therefore, the marginal cost of producing the 25th speedboat is 18,575.

Curtain Co. paid dividends of $12,000; $17,000; and $18,000 during Year 1, Year 2, and Year 3, respectively. The company had 2,3
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

$2,150

Explanation:

Annual cumulative preferred stock dividend = 2,300 × $100 × 6.5% = $14,950

Cumulative preferred stock dividend carried forward to year 2 = $14,950 - $12,000 = $2,950

Cumulative preferred stock dividend payable in year 2 = $14,950 + $2,950 = $17,900

Cumulative preferred stock dividend carried forward to year 3 = $17,900 - $17,000 = $900

Cumulative preferred stock dividend payable in year 3 = $14,950 + $900 =  $15,850

Dividend received by common shareholders during Year 3 = $18,000 - $15,850 = $2,150
