Following the assumption that firms maximize profits, how will the price and output policy of an unregulated monopolist compare

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is (A) output will be too small and its price too high.

Explanation:

MONOPOLY PRICE: price that departs from the value or production price of a given merchandise. Economic way in which capitalist monopolies obtain super profits. The monopoly price is equal to the production costs plus the high monopoly gain. There are two types of monopoly prices: the high ones, to which the monopolies sell their production and the low ones, to the monopolies buying the raw material or products destined for reworking and for sale, especially in colonial and dependent countries. In order to keep monopoly prices on the market, capitalist monopolies: 1) hinder the free emigration of capital by preventing the competitor from lowering the monopoly price or establishing an agreement with him to maintain a certain price, 2) limit the The production of goods in the internal market, without certain reductions in production, not even the destruction of "surplus" goods, 3) uses the bourgeois state to protect the internal market against foreign competition by establishing high tariff rates. Monopoly prices do not eliminate the action of the law of value as a law of merchandise prices. What monopoly capital earns thanks to monopoly prices, is lost by workers in capitalist countries and also the popular masses of colonial and economically weak countries, from which monopolists, through non-equivalent exchange, derive huge profits. A certain portion of the monopoly price is part of the gain of the bourgeoisie that does not enter the monopoly group. In this way, the interests of different classes and groups of today's capitalist society intersect in the monopoly price. For this reason, the growth of high monopoly prices, as well as the reduction of low monopoly prices - a phenomenon that is observed endlessly - leads to the further sharpening of the class contradictions of imperialism.

The Reuschel Company began 2018 with inventory of 21,000 units at a cost of $8 per unit. During 2018, 61,000 units were purchase

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

1. The Cost of Goods Sold for the period ended 2018 is 682,950.

2. If FIFO method has been used, the Cost of Goods Sold would have been 660,525. Hence, LIFO method has reduced Gross Profit by 22,425 (682,950 - 660,525).

Explanation:

LIFO is one of the methods to calculate cost of goods sold. It assumes that the recently purchased stock is sold first. When a company uses LIFO method, it gets a higher cost of goods sold figure because of Inflation factor.

In the example shared, the company has opening stock of 21,000 units which were purchased at a unit price of $8. During the Year, further units were purchased but this time at a unit cost of $9.95. It is given that the Sales were of 70,500 units. Since the company uses LIFO method, it must remove the recently purchased stock from its books first. So,

61,000 * 9.95 = $606,950.

But the company sold 70,500 units. It means that 61,000 of recently purchased goods were sold and the remaining (70,500 - 61,000) from opening stock.

9,500 * 8 = $76,000. This gives us total CGS of $682,950 (606,950 + 76,000).

If you have any further queries, feel free to ask me. Thanks!

Setup = cost of set up/ number of set ups

$80,000/ 1000 = $80 per set up

$32,500/ 500 = $65 per inspection

In the current year, Plum, Inc., a closely held C corporation, has $410,000 of net active income, $20,000 of portfolio income, a

fenix001 [56]

Answer:

(a) $430,000

(b) $355,000

Explanation:

To answer the question, it is important to understand the meaning of passive income or loss and how it applies to personal service corporation (PSC) and C corporation.

Passive income refers to income received from investment without active participation in the running of the business. Example of passive income is dividend.

For personal service corporation (PSC), when there is a passive loss, in can only be deducted from any other available passive income from other investments. If there is no other passive income, the passive loss is not deductible from active income.

For C corporation, passive loss is allowed to be deducted against net active income. However, it can not be deducted against portfolio income .

The questions are then answered as follows:

a) If Plum is a personal service corporation (PSC)

Since Plum is PSC, it cannot deduct passive activity loss of $75,000 from the net active income nor portfolio income.

Therefore, it taxable income is the addition of net active income and portfolio income as follows:

Taxable income = $410,000 + $410,000 = $430,000

b) Plum is not a personal service corporation

Here, Plum is considered as a C coporartion. Therefore, it can deduct the passive loss from the active income but not from portfolio income. Its Taxable income is therefore as follows:

Taxable income = ($410,000 - $75,000) + $20,000 = $355,000
