Answer:

15 ounces.

Explanation:

The first ounce is worth 0.40, and the additional x ounces are worth 0.25 each. So, the inequality should be Y > A + B * X, where Y is equal to 4, A is the value of the first ounce (0.4), B is the value of the additional ounces (0.25) and x is the quantity of additional ounces.

  • 4 > 0.4 + x * 0.25
  • 4 - 0.4 > 0.25x
  • 3.6/0.25 > x
  • 14,4 > x

14 is the maximum of additional ounces that can be mailed, we have to add the first one, for a total of 15 whole ounces that can be mailed for no more than $4.

Suppose the japanese yen exchange rate is ¥73.47 = $1, and the british pound exchange rate is £1 = $1.53.
sineoko [7]

Answer: Cross-rate can be found by using the given formula ,

¥73.47 = $1\\£1 = $1.53

So,

£1 = $1.53 $1 = \frac{£1}{1.53}  $1= £0.6536

Substituting this into the exchange rate for Yen and dollars, we get

¥73.47 = $1 ¥73.47 = £0.6536

¥73.47/0.6536 = £1 ¥112.4082=£1

Cross-rate in terms of Yen per Pound is 112.41

b. If cross-rate is ¥115=£1, this means that Yen is quoted high relative to pound. So, the arbitrage profit per dollar will be,

Suppose we take a a loan for $1 and buy £0.6536. Then we use the pounds to purchase yen at the cross-rate, so we have

£0.6536 (¥115/£1) = ¥75.164

Now, we replay the loan in dollars by exchanging Yen back to dollars. The cost to repay will be:

¥75.164($1/¥73.47) = $1.02305

Your arbitrage profit is $0.02305 per $1 used.

ch4aika [34]

Answer:

the farmer's total revenue when she uses the direct channel = 400 x $2.49 = $996

if she uses the indirect channel, her total revenue = 650 x $1.63 = $1,059.50

her total revenue will increase when selling to he supermarkets, but also her variable production costs will increase. This means that it is probable that her total contribution margin decreases even if total revenue decreases.
