Complete Question:

What advantages can Kim Ping expect if she decides to export her ducks to Morocco? Check all that apply.

- Foreign importers will pay manufacturing costs, allowing Kim Ping to offer her ducks at a more competitive price.

- Kim Prin will have better control over how her products are made than she will have with other forms of globalization.

-The market for Kim Ping's toys will expand, making it less dependent on her home market.

- Kim Ping's ducks will cost less because of reduced tariffs, making her more competitive.

Answer:

-The market for Kim Ping's toys will expand, making it less dependent on her home market.

Explanation:

Kim Ping's globalization efforts will help it to enjoy expanded markets. Expansion into foreign markets makes firms less dependent on their home markets. They can produce more goods at less costs because of the advantage of large scale production that becomes possible with expanded markets. As Kim Ping expands into the global market it becomes more efficient because it reviews its production systems to suit the global market. The expansion of Kim Ping into Morocco will also benefit the local market as consumers have expanded choices.

Ball Bearings, Inc., faces costs of production as follows:

Answer:

Q Fixed Variable Total Marginal Aver. Aver. Aver.

Costs Costs Cost Cost FC VC TC

0 100 0 100 - - - -

1 100 50 150 150 100 50 150

2 100 70 170 20 50 35 85

3 100 90 190 20 33.33 30 63.33

5 100 200 300 60 20 40 60

6 100 360 460 160 16.67 60 76.67

The firm's profit in this case is -$360.

True or False: This was a wise decision. ⇒ False

Depends on the situation and which costs are avoidable if the company shuts down operations. If it produces 4 cases, the losses reduce from -$100 to -$40, but the contribution margin is positive since revenues exceed variable costs by $60. But under the current price level, the company will not be able to generate profits unless it increases its sales price or decreases its fixed costs.

Vaguely remembering his introductory economics course, the company's chief financial officer tells the CEO it is better to produce 1 case of ball bearings, because marginal revenue equals marginal cost at that quantity.

At this level of production, the firm's profit is -$100.

True or False: This is the best decision the firm can make. ⇒ False

Accounting profit is maximized at 4 cases since marginal cost ($50) = sales price ($50). At this point the total profit is -$40.

Rosie's has 1,300 shares outstanding at a market price per share of $10. Sandy's has 2,000 shares outstanding at a market price

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

$14,800

Explanation:

Rosie's has 1,300 shares outstanding at a market price of $10

Sandy's had 2,000 shares outstanding at a market price of $23

The incremental value of the acquisition is $1,800

Therefore, the value of Rosie's to Sandy's can be calculated as follows

=( 1,300×$10)+$1,800

= $13,000+$1,800

=$14,800

Hence the value of Rosie's to Sandy's is $14,800

The owner of an orange grove must decide when to pick one variety of oranges. She can sell them for $27 a bushel if she sells th

uysha [10]

Answer:

The oranges should be picked in 2 weeks for maximum return

Explanation:

We assume that the return of the owner is y ($)

Assume that the number of weeks the oranges should be picked to have maximum return is x (weeks). (x≥0)

If collect now, the price for each bushel is $27

As the price per bushel decrease by $1.50 per bushel each week

=> After x weeks, the price of a bushel decrease: 1.5x ($)

=> The price of 1 bushel after x weeks is: 27 - 1.5x ($)

If collect now, each tree can yield 7 bushels

As the yield increases by half a bushel per week for the next 5 weeks

=> After x weeks with x ≤ 5, each trees would yields: 7 + 0.5x (bushels)

The return = The price of each bushes × The quantity of bushels

=> $y = (27-1.5x)(7+0.5x)$

⇔ $y= 27 (7 +0.5x) - 1.5x(7+0.5x) = 189 + 13.5x - 10.5x - 0.75x^{2}$

⇔ $y = -0.75x^{2} +3x +189$

We have: if the equation has the form of $y =ax^{2} +bx +c$ with a≠0, its maximum value is: $max y = c - \frac{b^{2} }{4a}$

In the equation $y = -0.75x^{2} +3x +189$ , we have: a = -0.75; b = 3; c = 189

=> $max y = c -\frac{b^{2} }{4a} = 189 - \frac{3^{2} }{4.(-0.75)} = 189 - \frac{9}{-3} = 189 - (-3) = 189+3 = 192$

To look for the number of weeks, we should find x (0≤x≤5) with which y = 192

$192 = -0.75x^{2} +3x +189$

⇔ $-0.75x^{2} + 3x + 189 - 192 = 0$

⇔ $-0.75 x^{2} + 3x - 3 =0$

⇔ $-0.75x^{2} + 4*0.75x - 0.75*4 =0$

⇔ $x^{2} -4x + 4 = 0$

⇔ $(x-2)^{2} = 0$

⇔ x = 2

The oranges should be picked in 2 weeks for maximum return

Depreciation for 2021 is calculated as :

= 4/10× $ 45,000

= 18,000

Book value at December 31, 2021 is calculated as :

=Cost - Accumulated Depreciation

=$45,000 - $ 18,000
