Answer: a. less than the socially optimal​ price, greater than the socially optimal quantity

Explanation:

The steel mill is producing steel and selling at a rate that does not account for the pollution that it is causing. Because of this, it is selling at a lower equilibrium price than what it would had the Pollution been accounted for.

The Steel Mill is also selling quantity that is greater than what would be considered socially optimal because the socially optimal level would account for the pollution and adjust in such a way that the Pollution is minimized

irakobra [83]

Answer:

a. 710,000

Explanation:

Current assets are calculated as follows:

Cash: $185,000

Accounts receivable, net $725,000

Recall that a loyal customer is to make semi-annually payments of $100000 into to the tune of $400,000 accounts receivable. For the year five balance sheet, the reclassification of o/s receivable will therefore be $200000

Therefore Total current assets = $185,000+ $725,000 - $200000 = $710,000

In JB Company's December 31, year five Balance Sheet $710,000 should be reported as current assets.

The new Intel M ULV 773 processor-based Sleekline model has a low market share of around 5%, but has just been introduced, and since the market is booming, Amina is hopeful that it will grow into maturity. Stallion, the Xenon-based system, has a market share of 88% in the industry segment it operates in, but the market is stable and not growing too fast. Finally, there is the Pentium 4-based Thunderbird, which only sells in discount markets in rural areas. Which of the following describes the product portfolio under Amina?

A. Sleekline-question mark, Stallion-star, Thunderbird-cash cow

B. Sleekline-question mark, Stallion-cash cow, Thunderbird- dog

C. Sleekline-Star, Stallion-cash cow, Thunderbird-dog

D. Sleekline-question mark, Stallion-dog, Thunderbird-cash cow

Answer:

Option B. Sleekline - Question mark, Stallion - cash cow, Thunderbird - dog

The Cash Cow is the company has significant market share and its growth is static due to the maturity phase of the market which is the case of Stallion.

The Dog is the company that has declining market share and will be out of the market because they don't have significant resources as well and in this question the Thunderbird is the one with falling sales and lower resources due to the fall in the resources.

In January 2012, one US dollar was worth 50 Indian rupees. Suppose that over the next year the value of the Indian rupee decreas
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

59% - a)increase - b)decrease

Explanation:

First of all, we should say that the real exchange rate is calculated by multiplying the nominal exchange rate for the price index and then divide it by the price index of the other country. In another language, using this case as the example, the first nominal exchange rate is 50, as you need 50 rupees to buy 1 dollar. So to calculate the real exchange rate you need to multiply 50 by 100 (the price index of USA) and then divide it by 100 (the price index of India). Note that both price indexes are 100, just a coincidence for making easier the question. Result: 50.

Then we calculate the next real exchange rate: multiply 60 (the new nominal exchange rate) by 106 (the new US price index) and divide by 80 (the new India price index). This throws a result of 79,5. We see a 29,5 increase, and 29,5 represents 59% of 50 (the initial real exchange rate).

Then both questions is more common sense than the reading of the results we just calculated. For example, nominal exchange rate changed from 50 to 60, so the people in India will now have to collect 10 more rupees to buy the same dollar. Let's suppose a pair of shoes in USA costs 40 dollars. Before, Indians needed 2000 rupees to buy it. Now they will need 2400 rupees... it will be more expensive. Plus, the prices of USA had gone up 6%, which means the pair of shoes will now cost 42,4 dollars... even more expensive! As products in USA are more expensive, we can expect that India's consumption of American goods will decrease (law of demand).

With the American consumption of Indian goods happens the opposite, the goods in India became cheaper (price index has fallen), and for the Americans, the same dollars they had will buy more rupees when the exchange rate changed to 60.
