Answer:

(i) 2.71 years

(ii) 5.38 years

(iii) Never or 0

Explanation:

1. Payback period:

= Initial cost ÷ cash inflows

= 1625 ÷ 600

= 2.71 years(Approx).

2. Payback period:

= Initial cost ÷ cash inflows

= 3225 ÷ 600

= 5.38 years(Approx).

3. The payback period for an initial cost of $5,100 is a little trickier.

Notice that the total cash inflows after eight years will be:

= 8 × $600

= $4,800

Payback period

= Initial cost ÷ cash inflows

= 5100 ÷ 600

= 8.5

This answer does not make sense since the cash flows stop after eight years, so again, we must conclude the payback period is never.

problem 08-07 (algo) you are the manager of a monopolistically competitive firm, and your demand and cost functions are estimate

Ad libitum [116K]

Demand function: Q = 48 - 2P

a) 2P = 48 - Q

Therefore the inverse Demand function is

P = 24 - Q/2

b) P = 24 - Q/2

Total Revenue = PQ = (24 - Q/2)*Q

TR = 24Q - Q2/2

MR = differentiating TR with respect to Q

MR = 24 - Q

We know a firm will maximize profit at MR = MC

TC = 6 + 3Q + Q2

MC = 3 + 2Q

Putting MR = MC, we have

24 - Q = 3 + 2Q

24 - 3 = 2Q + Q

21 = 3Q

Q = 21/3 = 7

Q = 7

Putting the value of Q in the equation P = 24 - Q/2

P = 24 - 7/2

P = 24 - 3.5

P = 20.5

Therefore the profit-maximizing output is 7 and the price is $20.5

c) TR = PQ = 20.5*7 = $143.5

TC = 6 + 3Q + Q2 = 6 + 3*7 + 7*7 = 6 + 21 + 49 = $76

Profit = TR - TC = 143.5 - 76 = $67.5

Therefore the firm's maximum profit is $67.5

d) a) entry will occur until profits are zero

In the long run, more and more firms will enter the market and the economic profit will be zero in the long run.

In economics, a Demand function is a graph depicting the connection between the price of a sure commodity and the amount of that commodity that is demanded at that fee. call for curves may be used both for the price-amount courting for a person client, or for all purchasers in a selected marketplace.

<span>In 1932, the u.s. government imposed a two-cent tax on checks written on deposits in bank accounts. this action would be expected to increase the currencyâ€“deposit ratio and decrease the money supply. Tax are basically meant to defers the writing of checks. Hence people will be unwilling to pay tax and does not want to write check which will increase their bank balance and hence currency deposit ratio will rise and money supply will decrease in the economy.</span>

Answer:

Explanation:

A farmer would want to look at the economic status of the US because his goal is to sell as much wheat as possible and make the most profit. If he pays no attention to the economy and there's a recession but he still sells his wheat at the normal price, people whose stocks are going down and who are losing money will be unable to, and unwilling to, pay the price. Thus, the farmer must inspect the changing economic statuses of the US to determine the best and most effective way to market out his wheat to the public.

Changes in US racial patterns have no impact on the marketing of the farmer's wheat, so A is incorrect.

The number of births per year is also irrelevant, as is the general population growth numbers because these do not affect the way the farmer will market his crops, so B and D are incorrect.

Hope this helps!

Ugo [173]

Answer:

1) Job-order costing

2)$ 7.2 per direct labor hour

3)$ 7.941 per direct labor hour

4)Cost of installation= $ 4108.23

Explanation:

In job order costing the cost accounting procedures are designed to assign costs to each job. Then the costs assigned to each job are averaged over the units of production in the job to obtain an average cost per unit.

A process costing system accumulates all production costs for a large number of units of outputs and then these costs are averaged over all the units.

1) As each job is different, requiring different materials and labor for installing the systems Job-order costing will be used.

2) If normal costing is used then the Overhead cost are $50,328

Number of direct labor hours are 6,990

The overhead rate=Overhead costs/ Number of direct labor hours

The overhead rate=$50,328/6,990= $ 7.2 per direct labor hour

3) The average actual wage rate = Actual Overhead costs / Number of direct labor hours

The average actual wage rate = $48,043.05/ 6,050=$ 7.941 per direct labor hour

4) Direct materials=$3,540

Direct labor hours= 30

Actual Direct Labor rate = ($66,550/6,050 )= $ 11

Direct Labor = ($66,550/6,050 )*30 =11*30=$ 330

Overheads 30 *7.941= $ 238.23

Cost of installation= $3,540 +$ 330+$ 238.23= $ 4108.23
