Answer:

Option (A) is correct.

Explanation:

A particular profit maximizing firm is produces at a point where marginal cost is equal to the marginal revenue.

Pizza cheese is used as an input for producing pizza, so if there is an increase  in the price of pizza cheese then this will results in an increase in the cost of production for the Ronny's Pizza House and this change will shift the marginal cost curve upwards.

We know that marginal revenue curve is downward sloping and marginal cost curve is upward sloping, so if there is a upward shift in the MC curve then it cuts the marginal revenue curve at a lower level of output.

BARSIC [14]

Answer:

the total goodwill resulting from this operation = $1,333,333

Explanation:

Since Midpark paid $1,000,000 for 30% of Cycling Pros, that would mean that Midpark determined that the total value of Cycling was: $1,000,000 / 30% = $3,333,333

If the book value of Cycling was $2 million, then the total goodwill resulting from this operation = $3,333,333 - $2,000,000 = $1,333,333

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

Kim Inc.

The net advantage (disadvantage) of replacing the old equipment with the new equipment is:

= $7,500.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                                                     Old Equipment     New Equipment  

Purchase price                                 $262,500              $450,000

Accumulated depreciation                  95,000               0  

Annual operating costs                     300,000                245,000

Total operating costs for 10 years 3,000,000             2,450,000

Salvage                                                 92,500             0

Total incremental cost                 $2,907,500           $2,900,000

b) The net advantage obtained by Kim for replacing the old equipment with the new equipment is $7,500 ($2,907,500 - $2,900,000).  Note that the purchase price of the old equipment with its accumulated depreciation are not relevant costs.  This case is worked out without taking into account the time value of money.  Assuming that the present value of the cash flows was computed, a different result and conclusion would be reached.

You want to buy a new sports coupe for $84,500, and the finance office at the dealership has quoted you an apr of 6.6 percent fo
Margaret [11]

Answer: The monthly payment will be $2007.81.

We have:

Cost of the sports coupe (PV)                     $84,500

Annual Percentage Rate (APR)                         6.6%

Loan tenure in months (n)                                    48

We can find the monthly payment by using the Present value of an annuity formula:

\mathbf{PV_{Annuity}= PMT * \left ( \frac{1-(1+r)^{-n}}{r} \right )}

Since APR is a yearly number, we need to convert it into a monthly rate.

So , r = \frac{0.066}{12} = 0.0055

Plugging values in the PV formula above we get,

\mathbf{84500 = PMT * \left ( \frac{1-(1+0.0055)^{-48}}{0.0055} \right )}

\mathbf{84500 = PMT * \left ( \frac{1-0.768529253}{0.0055} \right )}

\mathbf{84500 = PMT * \left ( \frac{0.231470747}{0.0055} \right )}

\mathbf{84500 = PMT * 42.08559028}

\mathbf{\frac{84500}{42.08559028}= PMT}

\mathbf{PMT = 2007.813112}
