ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

C) abandon the production of jam to fully specialize in the production of peanut butter and then trade with Company Q for jam.

Explanation:

According to different theories about trade specialization, a company or even a country should specialize in producing only those products that they can make better than their competition, i.e. have a comparative or absolute advantage in their production.  

In this case, since Company R has a comparative advantage in the production of peanut butter, it should specialize in producing only that. In case they need jam, they should trade with Company Q in order to get some jam. Eventually Company Q  will only produce jam since they have a comparative advantage in jam production.

garik1379 [7]

Answer:

Present Value 5,715,331.32

We are going to accept the project only if the initial investment is at 5,715,331 or below in order to achieve the return to support the cost of capital structure of the company

Accepting a project with a higher cost will not generate enought cashflow to sustain the patyment of debt and the return expected from the stockholders therefore, will generate a economic result and investor will leave the company for other which can sustain their desired return.

Explanation:

We are going to discount the yearly cash-flow at the given rate of 12.50%

then, the terminal value which is the present value of the future period will also be discounted at this rate.

The sum of all this will be the present value of the firm.

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}$Year&$Cash Flow&$Discounted\\1&575000&511111.11\\2&625000&493827.16\\3&650000&456515.77\\4&725000&452613.93\\5&850000&471689.61\\$terminal&6000000&3329573.74\\Present&Value&5715331.32\\\end{array}\right]

The formula we use the present value of a lump sum:

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV

We are going to accept the project only if the initial investment is at 5,715,331 or below in order to achieve the return to support the cost of capital estructure of the company

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Laissez faire economics advocates for less government regulation and intervention. Extreme laissez faire views dislike all types of taxes and controls.  Of course something like that will never happen, but different economic policies favor certain laissez faire views.

For example, during the 1800s, many politicians believed that business owners were entitled to exploit their workers in order to make higher profits. As a result of these types of policies, 14 or 16 hour long labor days were common, no safety regulations existed, and the wages were not high. Since governments didn't regulate labor markets, businesses were able to benefit form this and increase total production.

Juli2301 [7.4K]

The applicable formula is the formula for calculating the cost of goods sold, COGS.

COGS = The applicable formula is the formula for calculating the cost of goods sold, COGS.

COGS = Beginning inventory + purchases - closing inventory

In this case,  COGS will be 11,000 units:  Beginning balance 1100 and ending balance of 1000.

11,000 = 1100 + P -1000

11,000 = 1100-1000 +P

11,000 = 100 + P

P= 11,000 -100

P= 10,900

Productions should be 10,900
