At the beginning of 2017, Aristotle Company acquired a mine for $970,000. Of this amount, $100,000 was ascribed to the land valu

e and the remaining portion to the minerals in the mine. Surveys conducted by geologists have indicated that approximately 12,000,000 units of ore appear to be in the mine. Aristotle incurred $170,000 of development costs associated with this mine prior to any extraction of minerals. It also determined that the fair value of its obligation to prepare the land for an alternative use when all of the mineral has been removed was $40,000. During 2017, 2,500,000 units of ore were extracted and 2,100,000 of these units were sold. Compute the following. Collapse question part (a) The total amount of depletion for 2017. (Round per unit answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 0.45 for computational purpose and final answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 45,892.)

Answer: $225,000

Explanation:

Given that,

Company acquired a mine = $970,000 of this amount,

Land value = $100,000 and remaining  portion to the minerals in the mine

Ore appear to be in the mine = 12,000,000 units

Aristotle incurred development costs = $170,000

fair value of its obligation = $40,000

ore were extracted = 2,500,000 units

Units sold = 2,100,000

Depletion\ per\ unit = \frac{Mine\ acquiring\ cost + Development\ cost + Fair\ value\ of\ land - land\ value}{Ore\ appear\ to\ be\ in\ the\ mine}

                                       =\frac{970,000 + 170,000 + 40,000 - 100,000}{12,000,000}

                                       = $0.09 depletion per unit

The total amount of depletion for 2017 =  depletion per unit × ore were extracted

                                                                 = $0.09 × 2,500,000

                                                                 = $225,000

A consumer research study conducted by Visual Effects Inc. analyzes factors, such as age, income, and stage of family life cycle
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

Quantitative Research

Explanation:

It is quantitative research because the research is using numerical variables (age, income, stage of a family life cycle) to find a numerical property that is relevant to consumer behaviour (the probability of purchasing a 3D television).

Probability is measured in numerical value and is the focus of many consumer quantitative studies.

Television channel operating profits vary from as high as 45 to 55 percent at MTV and Nickelodeon down to 12 to 18 percent at NB
Xelga [282]

Answer:

Explanation:

MTV and cable channels can have higher operating profits largely because they have lower costs and can reach very specific demographic groups quite easily. MTV and Nickleodeon are typically not paying high and uncertain prices for their shows. They air mainly reruns of proven shows or relatively low-cost reality shows. This means that they have more cost certainty.

In addition, they have very clear target audiences where the networks do not. MTV is clearly aimed at teens and young adults while Nickleodeon is a kids' channel. Advertisers are attracted to channels with such clear demographics.

As far as Porter's five forces go, the most likely reason for the higher cable profits would have to do with brand equity and the lower propensity among buyers to substitute.

These would mean that cable channels have a lower threat of new competition and a lower threat of substitute products. It is true that it is easy for a new cable channel to be created, but it is much harder for such a channel to get the name recognition and brand equity that MTV and Nickleodeon have.
