Answer:

d. $25,000

b. ($5,000) loss

Explanation:

In the first case, the gain or loss on this transaction is

Gain or loss on this transaction is

= Sale value of the land - adjusted basis of the land

= $110,000 - $85,000

= $25,000

We ignored the fair market value of the land for computing the gain or loss of the transaction

In the second case, the gain or loss on this transaction is

Gain or loss on this transaction is

= Sale value of the land - fair market value

= $80,000 - $85,000

= -$5,000 loss

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

E. the product is not compatible with existing habits

Explanation:

Looking for a greater sale of our products, sometimes we embark on monumental battles, trying to modify the way customers see the world.

However, experience indicates that this rarely happens. And when it happens, it is because there have been millionaire investments in media and product tests to try to convince a small part of the population to change their behavior.

Especially for entrepreneurs with limited resources, trying to change consumption habits is a long-term effort. It is necessary to invest significant resources to stimulate demand, which is also likely to end up benefiting competition equally.

You are incentivizing a new product category, in which new players will want to participate, once you have made the investment to educate the market. So you must prepare to get the most out of your effort.

You sell Apples and Banana. You are considering selling them together and separately. You have three types of buyers, Banana lov
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

Apples and Banana

a) Profit maximizing prices:

i) For Apple = $100

ii) For Banana = $40

b) Profits equal revenue minus costs:

i) For Apple = $100Q - (20 + 10Q) = $60Q

ii) For Banana = $40 - (26.5 + 5Q) = $8.50Q

c) To maximize profit, the price to charge is $100 for Apples and $40 for Banana.

d) I would expect to earn a profit of  $68.50 for a set of apple and banana.

Explanation:

To maximize profit, Apple and Banana will be sold separately.

But, selling them together, the best profit maximizing prices will be $100 for Apples and $10 for Banana.

At this combined price, the banana still makes a contribution of $5 per unit towards offsetting the fixed cost of $26.50

Suppose the currency-to-deposit ratio is 0.25, the excess reserve-to-deposit ratio is 0.05, and the required reserve ratio is 0.
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

Money multiplier, MM = (1 + Currency-deposit ratio) / (Currency-deposit ratio + Excess reserve ratio + Required Reserve ratio)

(a) Initially,

MM = (1 + 0.25) / (0.25 + 0.05 + 0.10) = 1.25 / 0.4 = 3.125

(b) Currency-deposit ratio = 0.3

MM = (1 + 0.3) / (0.3 + 0.05 + 0.1) = 1.3 / 0.45 = 2.89

(c) Excess reserve ratio rises to which number? MM cannot be computed unless exact number is provided.
