Answer:

Option A and B is applicable for a market to be perfectly​ competitive, A. firms must be price​ takers, firms must produce a homogeneous​ product, and firms must be able to easily enter and exit the market. B. firms must have market​ power, firms must produce a differentiated​ product, and firms must be able to easily enter and exit the market.  

Explanation:

Perfect competition refers to the situation prevailing in a market in which buyers and sellers are in abundance and well informed that all elements of monopoly are non existent and the market price of a commodity is beyond the control of individual buyers and sellers.

For firm to attain perfect competition, certain conditions must be met. Here is a few to begin with.

  • There are many buyers and sellers in the market.
  • Each company makes a similar product.
  • Buyers and sellers have access to perfect information about price.
  • There are no transaction costs.
  • There are no barriers to entry into or exit from the market.

From the foregoing, option A and B are satisfactory assumptions for perfect competition.

Answer: A

Firms must be price​ takers, firms must produce a homogeneous​ product, and firms must be able to easily enter and exit the market

Explanation:

A perfectly competitive market is a market in there are many sellers of a single homogeneous goods, many buyers, abundance of information about product, free entry and exit at any point and no transaction cost. None of the (selling) firms is big enough to determine the market price. A perfectly competitive market totally follows the law of demand and supply.

Total revenue for a firm in a perfectly competitive market is the function of product price and quantity (TR = P * Q).

Yanka [14]

Using notes outside of a given key to produce heightened color is referred to as  "chromaticism".



Chromaticism, in music, the utilization of notes unfamiliar to the mode or diatonic scale whereupon an organization is based.  


Chromatic tones in Western craftsmanship music are the notes in an organization that are outside the seven-note diatonic (i.e., major and minor) scales and modes. On the piano console, the dark keys speak to the 5 chromatic tones that don't have a place with the diatonic size of C real; high contrast keys together mean the chromatic size of 12 tones for every octave.

Lapatulllka [165]

It is true that if an overpayment resulted in a tax benefit, it makes no difference whether it is reimbursed or used to reduce the 2019 state federal income tax due.

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) imposes a levy known as the federal income tax on the yearly income of people, businesses, trusts, and other legal entities. All forms of income that constitute a taxpayer's taxable income are subject to federal income taxes, including wages, salaries, commissions, bonuses, tips, investment income, and certain categories of unearned income.

Individual federal income tax rates in the US are progressive, which means that they rise in proportion to taxable income. Federal income tax rates range from 10% to 37%, and they become effective at a certain level of income. Tax brackets are the ranges of income that the rates apply to. Income that is subject to each bracket is taxed at that rate.

Differential effect Income (Alternative 2) -$815,584

B. Goodman should REJECT the special order from Euro Motors

C.$115.69

Explanation:

a. Preparation of a differential analysis dated January 21

DIFFERENTIAL ANALYSIS

Reject (Alternative 1) Accept (Alternative 2) Differential effect Income (Alternative 2)

Revenues $0 $1,613,850 $1,613,850

(21,000 tires × $76.85 per tire)

Costs:

Direct materials 0 –$1,134,000 $1,134,000

(21,000 tires × $54 per tire)

Direct labor 0 –$504,000 $504,000

(21,000 tires × 24 per tire)

Variable factory overhead 0 –$312,480 $312,480

[21,000 tires × ($24 per tire × 62%)]

Variable selling and admin.

expenses 0 –$152,880 $152,880

21,000 tires × [(25 per tire × 44%) – ($93 × 4%)]

Shipping costs 0 –$160,650 $160,650

(21,000 tires × $7.65 per tire)

Certification costs 0 –$165,424 –$165,424

Income (Loss) $0 -$815,584 -$815,584

B. Based on the above Differentials analysis Brightstone should REJECT the special order from Euro Motors.

C. Calculation to determine minimum price per unit that would be financially acceptable to Brightstone

Minimum price per unit =$76.85-(-$815,584/21,000)

Minimum price per unit =$76.85-(-$38.84)

Minimum price per unit=$115.69

Therefore minimum price per unit that would be financially acceptable to Brightstone is $115.69

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

Dr. Cash                          $2,842

Dr. Discount Expense    $58

Cr. Account Receivable $2,900

Explanation:

Terms 2/10, n/30 means there is a discount of 2% is available on payment of due amount within discount period of 10 days after sale with net credit period of 30 days.

Sales = $3,700

Returns = $800

Amount Due = $3,700 - $800 = $2,900

As the payment is made within discount period, so discount will be availed

Discount = $2,900 x 2% = $58

Cash Paid = $2,900 - $58 = $2,842

For the cost and price functions below, find
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

a) The number, q, of units that produces maximum profit = 15

b) The price, p, per unit that produces maximum profit = 47 (currency not giben in the question)

c) Maximum Profit = P = 380 (currency not given in the question).

Explanation:

The cost function and price per unit function are given respectively as

C(q) = 70 + 17q

p = 77 - 2q

where q = quantity or number of units

a.) the number, q, of units that produces maximum profit

Total cost = C(q) = 70 + 17q

Revenue = (price per unit) × (Number of units) = p × q = (77 - 2q) × q = (77q - 2q²)

Profits = P(q) = (Revenue) - (Total Cost)

P(q) = (77q - 2q²) - (70 + 17q)

P(q) = -2q² + 60q - 70

To maximize the profits, we just obtain the point where the profit function reaches a Maximum.

At the maximum of a function, (dP/dq) = 0 and (d²P/dq²) < 0

Profit = P(q) = -2q² + 60q - 70

(dP/dq) = -4q + 60

At maximum point,

(dP/dq) = -4q + 60 = 0

q = (60/4) = 15

(d²P/dQ²) = -4 < 0 (hence, showing that the this point corresponds to a maximum point truly)

Hence, the number, q, of units that produces maximum profit = 15.

b.) the price, p, per unit that produces maximum profit

The price per unit is given as

p = 77 - 2q

Maximum profit occurs at q = 15

p = 77 - (2×15) = 47

Hence, the price, p, per unit that produces maximum profit = 47 (currency not given in the question)

c.) the maximum profit, P.

The Profit function is given as

Profit = P(q) = -2q² + 60q - 70

At maximum Profit, q = 15

Maximum Profit = P(15)

= -2(15²) + 60(15) - 70

= 380 (currency not given in the question).

Hope this Helps!!!
