Answer:

C) the monopoly model

Explanation:

First of all, collusion is illegal, and it is defined as secret cooperation between individuals or organizations that should be competing against each other.

In this case, the oligopolistic firms should be competing against each other trying to earn a larger market share, but since they collude together, they will act as if they were one single large monopoly. Usually collusion leads to higher prices, benefiting the companies but hurting the customers. Since all the competing firms in the market decided to work together, they will set their prices in a similar manner to a monopoly since there is no real competition between them.

The owner of a bicycle repair shop forecasts revenues of $160,000 a year. Variable costs will be $50,000, and rental costs for t
elena55 [62]

Answer and Explanation:

Revenue                              $160,000

Rental Costs                      $30,000

Variable Costs                      $50,000

Depreciation                      $10,000

Profit before tax              $70,000

Tax(35%)                              $24,500

Net Income                      $45,500

Operating cash flow

a) Dollars in minus dollars out

Revenue ? rental costs ? variable costs ? taxes = $160000 -$30000-$50000-$24,500 = $55,500

b) Adjusted accounting profits

Operating cash flow = Net income + depreciation = $45,500 + $10,000 = $55,500

c) Add back depreciation tax shield

Operating cash flow = [(Revenue ? rental costs ? variable costs) × (1 ? 0.35)] + (depreciation × 0.35)]

= ($160,000-$30000-$50,000)*0.65 + $10,000*0.35 = $55,500

Yes, the above approaches result in the same value for cash flow
