On a graph that shows supply and demand curves, <u>equilibrium is the single point where the two curves meet</u> (aka are <em>equal</em>).
Answer:
Alice's consumer surplus = $5
Jeff's consumer surplus = $16
Nicole's producer surplus = $1
Explanation:
Consumer surplus is the difference between the willingness to pay of a consumer and the price of a good.
Consumer surplus = willingness to pay - price of the good
Producer surplus is the difference between the price of a good and the least price the producer is willing to accept
Producer surplus = price of the good - least price the producer is willing to accept
Alice's consumer surplus = $30 - ($35 - $10) = $5
Jeff's consumer surplus = $20 - [$16 - (0.75 x $16)] = $16
Nicole's producer surplus = $501 - $500 = $1
Answer:
Right to transfer
Explanation:
The owner has opted to use some land but leases the rest to a tenant by exercising the right to transfer. The right to transfer is a contract which allows renting some part of the land to another party for a specific period of time. The contractual right and responsibility are transferred through delegation or assignment.
Answer:
The expected excess return will be 11.4%
Explanation:
The S&P 500's excess return is the market return (rM). Using the CAPM model or the SML approach, we can calculate the required/expected rate of return on the stock we are investing in.
The expected rate of return is,
r = rRF + β * (rM - rRF)
Thus, return on the invested stock will be:
r = 0.03 + 1.2 * (0.1 - 0.03)
r = 0.114 or 11.4%
Answer:
1. Requires substantial resources.
2. produces different numbers than a traditional system.
3. Is costly to maintain.
Explanation:
Activity-based costing (ABC) system is a method of accounting assigns the total cost of activities such as manufacturing overhead costs and indirect costs necessary to produce a product or provide a service.
Basically, an activity-based costing (ABC) system is focused on the cost drivers associated with the respective activities, which are responsible for cost to be incurred. The cost drivers are activities such as direct labor, purchase order, machine use etc.
<em>Hence, an activity-based costing system requires substantial resources, produces different numbers than a traditional system and is costly to maintain.</em>
