Answer: 1.048

Explanation:

First let us calculate the amount in Con Edison

= 50,000 - 20,000 - 12,000

= $18,000

To calculate the Portfolio Beta, you take the sum of the respective betas of the various stocks in the portfolio multiplied by their proportion in the portfolio.

Intel = 20,000/50,000

= 2/5

GE = 12,000/50,000

= 6/25

Con Edison = 18,000/50,000

= 9/25

Adding them up we will have

= (1.3*2/5) + (1*6/25) + (0.8*9/25)

= 1.048

Williams Company purchased a machine costing $28,300 and is depreciating it over a 10-year estimated useful life with a residual
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

$3,160

Explanation:

Depreciation is the systematic allocation of the cost of an asset to the income statement over the estimated useful life of that asset.

It is determined as the depreciable value of the asset over the estimated useful life of the asset where the depreciable value is the difference between the cost and salvage value of the asset .

Given that Williams Company purchased a machine costing $28,300 and is depreciating it over a 10-year estimated useful life with a residual value of $3,300,

Annual depreciation

= ($28,300 - $3,300)/10

= $2,500

At the beginning of the eighth year, a major overhaul on it was completed at a cost of $8,300,

Net book value at the beginning of the eighth year (before overhauling)

= $28,300 - 7($2,500)

= $10,800

Capitalizing the overhaul cost,

Net book value at the beginning of the eighth year (after overhauling)

= $10,800 + $8,300

= $19,100

Given that the total estimated useful life was changed to 12 years with the residual value unchanged,

Depreciation for the eighth year

= ($19,100 - $3,300)/5

= $15,800/5

= $3,160

The price elasticity of the loan taken by the entrepreneur comes out to be 10.

<h3>What is the price elasticity of demand?</h3>

The price elasticity of demand is an indicator used to determine the sensitivity of demanded quantity with respect to its corresponding price.

Given values:

Change in quantity demanded: 50%

Change in price: 5%

Computation of price elasticity of demand:

\rm\ Price \rm\ elasticity \rm\ of \rm\ business \rm\ loan=\frac{\rm\ Change \rm\ in \rm\ quantity \rm\ demanded}{\rm\ Change \rm\ in \rm\ price} \\\rm\ Price \rm\ elasticity \rm\ of \rm\ business \rm\ loan=\frac{50\%}{5\%} \\\rm\ Price \rm\ elasticity \rm\ of \rm\ business \rm\ loan=10

Therefore, when the change in quantity demanded is 50% with the change in the price is 5%, then the price elasticity of a business loan is equal to 10.

IceJOKER [234]

Answer: The answer is oligopolistic competition

Explanation:

Price can be defined as the amount of money for which a goods or services is been offered for sale by the sellers of the goods. It is a sum of money at which the seller and the buyer agrees to exchange a goods or services. The price of a product or services usually shows the cost of the product and the quality of a product or services been offered for sale by the sellers. When a business set a price for their products or services they usually takes into consideration factors such as survival, profit maximization, return on their investment, market share, and the business prestige.

The strategy of setting the same price with your competitors is called oligopolistic competition. In this case, if one competitor wants to be ahead of other competitors in the market, then such a competitor has to include in their product features that will not be found in the product of their competitors, through this process such a competitor would be ahead of their competitors in the market by having the larger share of the market.
