Three Guys Burgers, Inc., has offered $18 million for all of the common stock in Two Guys Fries, Corp. The current market capita

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

Annual synergy gain = $ 178,500

Explanation:

Value of synergy gain from acquisition = 18 - 15.9 = 2.1 million

Annual synergy gain = 2.1 *.085 = .1785 million or $ 178,500

Annual synergy gain = $ 178,500

Ben, a product manager at SunRise Juice Co., is having a hard time choosing the wording for a new ready-made fruit smoothie prod

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

I think Ben should encourage the Senior Management to call a multidisciplynary meeting and do some research.

Explanation:

I think Ben is right. Even though the statement is technically correct, it may mislead customers.

Customers may interpret the phrase "no sugar added" as if the product did not contain any sugar.

Thus, customers interested in drinking beverages without sugar at all might think they are "safe" consuming the smoothie beverage, when in reallity each smoothie's bottle contains sugar 35 g of naturally occurring sugars from the fruit.

Customers deserve to be certain on what they are buying, thus the labels must be a sincere help for them, and not ambiguos at all.

This is a "gray zone" and an example of what in ethics is called a dilema.

I think the decision should be shared by a wider team and based on some research.

I think Ben should encourage the Senior Management to call a multidisciplynary meeting, where the subject is widely discussed. Also, I would suggest Ben to do some research, look for precedents about labeling in the industry, and try to learn the opinion of the FDA about this sensitive matter.

Huggins Co. has identified an investment project with the following cash flows. Year Cash Flow 1 $ 880 2 1,250 3 1,510 4 1,675 I

myrzilka [38]

Answer:

the present value is $4,316.35

Explanation:

The computation of the present value of given cash flows is shown below:

Present value is

= Cash flows at year 1 ÷ (1 + rate of interest) + Cash flows at year 2 ÷ (1 + rate of interest)^2 + Cash flows at year 3 ÷ (1 + rate of interest)^3 + Cash flows at year 4 ÷ (1 + rate of interest)^4

= $880 ÷ 1.08 + $1,250 ÷ 1.08^2 + $1,510 ÷ 1.08^3 + $1,675 ÷ 1..08^4

= $4,316.35

Hence, the present value is $4,316.35

Suppose that the demand for steel in Japan is given by the equation Qd S = 1200 – 4PS + PA + PT, where QS is the quantity of ste

timurjin [86]

Answer: See explanation below for answer.

Explanation:

a) In equilibrium the quantity supplied will equal the quantity demanded in all three markets. Algebraically this implies:

Qd S = Qs S

Qd A = Qs A

Qd T = Qs T

Substituting in the given curves implies:

1200 - 4PS + PA + PT = 4PS

1200 - 4PA + PS + PT = 4PA

1200 - 4PT + PS + PA = 4PT

Solving the first equation for PT and substituting into the second equation implies:

1200 - 4PA + PS + (8PS - PA - 1200) = 4PA

9PS = 9PA

Cancel 9 on both sides, we have:

=> PS = PA

Substituting these results into the third equation implies:

1200 - 4(8PA - PA - 1200) + PA + PA = 4(8PA - PA - 1200)

=> 10800 = 54PA

=> PA = 200

At:

PA = 200

PS = 200

PT = 200

The equilibrium quantities are:

QA = 800

QS = 800

QT = 800

b) Substituting the new supply curve for steel into the equilibrium condition, we have:

1200 - 4PS + PA + PT = PS

1200 - 4PA + PS + PT = 4PA

1200 - 4PT + PS + PA = 4PT

Again solving for PT in the first equation and substituting into the second equation, we have:

1200 - 4PA + PS + (5PS - PA - 1200) = 4PA

=> 6PS = 9PA

=> PS = 1.5PA

Substituting these results into the third equation, we have:

1200 - 4(5(1.5PA) - PA - 1200) + 1.5PA + PA = 4(5(1.5PA) - PA - 1200)

=> 10800 = 49.5PA

=> PA = 218.18

At:

PA = 218.18

PS = 327.27

PT = 218.18

At these prices, the equilibrium quantities are:

QA = 872.72

QS = 327.27

QT = 872.72

The shift in the supply of steel raises the equilibrium price for all three goods, lowering the equilibrium quantity of steel and raising the equilibrium quantities of aluminum and titanium. This last effect comes as a result of the demand curves for aluminum and titanium increasing in response to the shift in the steel supply curve.

c) Returning to the original equilibrium, this shift in the demand for aluminum implies:

1200 - 4PS + PA + PT = 4PS

1500 - 4PA + PS + PT = 4PA

1200 - 4PT + PS + PA = 4PT

Solving the first equation for PT and substituting into the second equation, we have:

1500 - 4PA + PS + (8PS - PA - 1200) = 4PA

=> 9PS + 300 = 9PA

=> PS = PA - 33.33

Substituting these results into the third equation, we have:

1200 - 4(8(PA - 33.33) - PA - 1200) + (PA - 33.33) + PA = 4(8(PA - 33.33) - PA - 1200)

=> 12900 = 54PA

=> PA = 238.89

At:

PA = 238.89

PS = 205.56

PT = 205.56

At these prices, the equilibrium quantities are:

QA = 955.56

QS = 822.24

QT = 822.24

An increase in the demand for aluminum will raise the equilibrium prices and quantities in all three markets. The price and quantity in the steel and aluminum industries increase because as the price of aluminum rises, the demand for steel and titanium increases.
