Answer: AGREE
Explanation:
A Monopoly faces no competition and are the only sellers of the product they sell. If firms in an industry successfully engage in collusion, the resultant effect will definitely be not unlike a Monopoly because they will set prices as a single firm, control output as a single firm and essentially run the market as a single firm.
They will sell at a rate where the Marginal Revenue curve will be below the demand curve. This will mean a higher price than a competitive market which was probably the main incentive for collusion.
A recent example would be the collusion between BMW, Daimler and Volkswagen, to hinder technological progress in improving the quality of vehicle emissions in order to reduce the cost of production and maximize profits. Thankfully this was busted by the European Commission in 2019.
Without an abundance of natural resources, the US could never of have achieved industrialization at the pace or scope it did. United States of American will then have l<span>ess wealth, less industry, and slower growth. Thank you for posting. Hope it helps :)</span>
Answer:
Explanation:
In this scenario, we compare the values between book value and the fair value of equipment, the difference would be the loss on impairment of the asset
In mathematically,
= Book value - fair value
where,
Book value = Equipment cost - accumulated depreciation
= $672,000 - $174,000
= $498,000
And, the fair value is $384,000
Now put these values to the above formula
So, the value would equal to
= $498,000 - $384,00
= $114,000
Now the journal entry would be
Loss on impairment A/c Dr $114,000
To Accumulated depreciation A/c $114,000
(Being the impairment loss is recorded)
Answer:
C) $250,000
Explanation:
Larkin's investment in Devon at the end of the year = carrying amount at the beginning of the year + Larkin's share of Devon's income - Larkin's share of Devon's dividends
= $200,000 + ($600,000 x 25%) - ($400,000 x 25%)
= $200,000 + $150,000 - $100,000 = $250,000
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
Sales = $222,000
Less: Cost = $96,500
Less: Depreciation = $26100
EBIT = $99400
Less: Tax = 24% × $99400 = $23856
Net income = $75544
A. EBIT+Depreciation-Taxes
EBIT = $99400
Add: Depreciation = $26100
Less: Tax = $23856
Operating cashflow = $101644
B. Top-Down
= EBIT(1 - t) + Depreciation
= $99400(1 - 0.24) + $26100
= $75544 + $26100
= $101644
C. Tax-Shield
= (Sales - Cost)(1-t) + Depreciation (t)
= ($222000 - $96500)(1 - 0.24) + $26100(0.24)
= ($125500 × 0.76) + $6264
= $95380 + $6264
= $101644
D. Bottom-Up
= Net income + Depreciation
= $75544 + $26100
= $101644
