Answer: A firm should not continue production when its MR is lower than its AVC.
Explanation:
The goal of every firm is to minimize cost and also maximize profits and therefore the firm will operate at the output level where the marginal revenue and the marginal cost equates.
A firm should not continue production when its MR is lower than its AVC. Here, the firm will incur a higher loss during production as producing will not offset the variable cost. Therefore, it's better to shut down.
Answer:
b) $124
Explanation:
FIFO means first in, first out. Under this principle, goods that were purchased or produced earlier will be the first ones on sale.
The value of the goods sold in our case will be as follows.
The first ten items @ $10: 10X10 =$100
Two items to make [email protected] $12: 2x12=$24
Total cost: $100+$24= $124
Answer:
14.1%
Explanation:
Cash return on assets is the ratio of a company's operating cash flow to its average total assets. It shows how a company is generating cash flow from its assets and compares a company’s profitability with other companies.
Cash return on assets = operating cash flow / average total assets
Given that:
operating cash flows = $240,000
Average total assets = ($1.6 million + $1.8 million) / 2 = $1.7 million.
Therefore, Cash return on assets = $240000 / $1.7 million = 0.141 = 14.1%
Answer and Explanation:
a. The computation of depreciation for each of the first two years by the straight-line method is shown below:-
Depreciation
= (Assets cost - Salvage value) ÷ Useful life
= ($171,000 - 0) ÷ 25
= $6,840
For First year = $6,840
For Second year = $6,840
It would be the same for the remaining useful life
b. The computation of depreciation for each of the first two years by the double-declining-balance method is shown below:-
First we have to determine the depreciation rate which is shown below:
= One ÷ useful life
= 1 ÷ 25
= 4%
Now the rate is double So, 8%
In year 1, the original cost is $171,000, so the depreciation is $13,680 after applying the 8% depreciation rate
And, in year 2, the ($171,000 - $13,680) × 8% = $12,585.60
The bundle that is going to maximize profit is going to be Late
<h3>How to find the bundle that would maximize profit</h3>
we have the net profit from early to be 7 + 5 = 12
We have the net profit from late to 6 + 10 = 16
We can see that the value for late is greater at 16 compared to that of the early.
Hence we can say that late has the greatest profit.
Next we have to solve for the profit that is made. This is the net profit.
The solution is given as 16 - 12 = 4
<h3>What is profit maximization</h3>
This is the process where by businesses would try to get the best output possible from the given inputs that they would use in the business. It goal is to be able to maximize the returns that they would make.
