Answer:

The answer is a sunk cost.

Explanation:

Sunk cost is irrelevant in present decision making. It is the cost that had already been incurred. It is irreversible.

Here, $500 spent on fixing the transmission does not matter again.

Opportunity cost is wrong because it means the alternative that has been forgone i.e alternative not chosen. For example, if you have an opportunity to either buy milk or bread and you went for bread, the opportunity cost is the cost of milk you didnt buy.

Incremental cost is also wrong. Incremental cost is the cost that was realized because of a decision.

Damm [24]

Answer:

The answer is<u> "$500".</u>

Explanation:

The amount of monetary damages Mary can likely recover from the manufacturer of the toaster is $500, because the disclaimer label on the toaster clearly states that, the manufacturer company is not liable for consequential damages. The damage of the electrical wiring in the kitchen refers to consequential damage because it is not the direct result of the damage of toaster but it is due to the spark in the toaster.

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

22

Explanation:

A monopoly will maximize profit at MR = MC ( marginal revenue = marginal cost)72

MR =MC

40 -0.5 Q = 4

-0.5 Q = 4 - 40 = -36

Q = -36 / -0.5 = 72

The price of the her product

Q = 160 - 4P

4P =  160 - 72 = 88

P = 88 / 4 = 22

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

amount invest in B is 2000

Explanation:

given data

invested in Fund A = 5000

return profit A = 3%

return profit B = 10%

both together returned profit =  5%

solution

we consider here amount invest in B = x

so profit from fund B is

profit from fund B =  10% ×  x = 0.1 x

and

profit from fund A = 5000 × 3% = 150

so total profit = 0.1x + 150

and total profit = 5%

so we can say

5%  = \frac{0.1x+150}{5000+x}

solve it we get

x = 2000

so amount invest in B is 2000

A stock with a current market price of $50 and a strike price of $45 has an associated put option priced at $3.50. This put has
Rashid [163]

Answer:

The answer is D

Explanation:

Intrinsic value can be found by simply using the following formula

Put intrinsic value = Strike Price - Current selling price

this gives,

PIV = $45 - $50 = $-5

A put intrinsic value cannot be vegetative as it can be exercised right now at the current price. Thus it is interpreted as 0.

Time value is calculated as follows

Time Value = Option Price - Intrinsic Value

This gives   TV = $3.5 - $0 = $3.5

Hope this helps.
