Answer:

b. Horizontal merger.

Explanation:

Project Repat is merging with a company that produces similar products to its own markets them in similar markets as well, this is an example of a horizontal merger that results in increased synergies between the similar firms and a greater market share opportunity.

Vertical mergers are usually not in the same industry. They would either be with the suppliers of Project Repat or customers who retail Project Repat's products.

Conglomerate is an example of diversification and usually the merging firms have different operations.

There are no information of clashes of any sort within the two  merging companies so it is uncertain whether this is a hostile takeover.

Hope that helps.

Answer:

The equilibrium price will increase

Explanation:

Equilibrium price is defined as the price at which the quantity demanded and quantity supplied are equal.

At this point there is no excess demand or supply, they are both equal.

I'm the given scenario the new rice diet that is being marketed in the U.S. as a cure for cancer will lead to increase in demand for rice.

const2013 [10]

Answer:

The Margin of safety is $100,000

Explanation:

Price = Sales / number of units = $1,700,000 / 8500 = $200

Contribution margin ratio is the ratio of contribution margin to the sales value. It measure the ratio that contributes in the recovery of fixed cost and making profit.

Contribution margin ratio = Contribution margin / Sale price = $60 / $200 = = 0.3 = 30%

Break-even is the level of sales at which business has no profit no loss situation.

Break-even point = Fixed cost / Contribution margin ratio = $480,000 / 30% = $1600,000

Margin of safety is the level of sales at which the business is safe from making loss. Margin of safety measures the profit after the break-even point.

Margin of Safety = Total sales - Break-even point = $1,700,000 - $1,600,000

= $100,000
