Answer:
For both 10,000 units and 20,000 units, the best alternative is Vendor B
Explanation:
Using the information provided in the question, we can write the following:
Annual Volume of 10,000 units
Internal Alternative 1
Variable costs = 170,000 (we multiply the variable cost per unit by total units)
Fixed costs = 20,000
Total costs = 370,000
Internal Alternative 2
Variable costs = 140,000
Fixed costs = 240,000
Total costs = 380,000
Vendor A
Total cost = 200,000 (we simply multiply the price by the quantity)
Vendor B
Total cost = 180,000
Vendor C
Total cost = 190,000
The cheapest option is Vendor B
Now for the 20,000 units:
Internal Alternative 1
Variable costs = 340,000
Fixed costs = 200,000
Total costs = 540,000
Internal Alternative 2
Variable costs = 280,000
Fixed costs = 240,000
Total costs = 520,000
Vendor A
Total cost = 400,000
Vendor B
Total cost = 360,000
Vendor C
Total cost = 380,000
Therefore, Vendor B is once again, the cheapest alternative.
A cartel is when a group of companies illegally work together and essentially create a monopoly in order to increase prices and their profits.
Answer: Modern portfolio theory takes this idea even further. It suggests that combining a stock portfolio that sits on the efficient frontier with a risk-free asset, the purchase of which is funded by borrowing, can actually increase returns beyond the efficient frontier.
Risk premium is defined as excess return over risk free rate by taking extra risk. A risk-free asset has zero risk, so risk premium on these assets is zero. As risk level of investment increases, risk premium on investment also increases.
The market risk premium is the difference between the expected return on a market portfolio and the risk-free rate. The market risk premium is equal to the slope of the security market line (SML), a graphical representation of the capital asset pricing model (CAPM). CAPM measures required rate of return on equity investments, and it is an important element of modern portfolio theory and discounted cash flow valuation.
