Consider Figure 9.2 on page 205 of our textbook. Suppose P0 is $10 and P1 is $11. Suppose a new firm with the same LRAC curve as

the incumbent tries to break into the market by selling 4,000 units of output. Estimate from the graph what the new firm's average cost of producing output would be. If the incumbent continues to produce 6,000 units, how much output would be supplied to the market by the two firms? Estimate what would happen to the market price as a result of the supply of both the incumbent firm and the new entrant. Approximately how much profit would each firm earn ?

Answer:

The 10,000 units of output that will be supplied by the two firms to the market.

Profit that each firm would earn will be higher than previous.

Explanation:

The firm selling 4,000 units at the price of $10 per unit. If the output is increased to 6,000 units the price will increase to $11 per unit. If the new 6,000 units are produced along with the previous 4,000 units then the total output supplied by the two firms will be 10,000 units (6,000 + 4,000). The supply of goods in the market will increase so price will fall and the revenue for the firms will decline but they can benefit with sales volume and their profit can increase.

Olin [163]

Answer:

c. believe in the use of fiscal policy to stabilize the economy.

Explanation:

According to Keynesian theory, the sum of some micro-economic behaviors of all individuals and businesses results in inefficiency and the economy operates at a level below its potential output and growth. When total demand for products is insufficient, the economy enters a crisis and unnecessary unemployment arises due to defensive behavior of the producers. In such cases, the government may pursue policies to increase aggregate demand, and as a result may accelerate economic activities and reduce unemployment. Most Keynesian propose policies to stabilize the business cycle. For example, when the unemployment level is too high, the state can pursue a growth-oriented monetary policy.  , one of the most famous of his critiques, Keynes argues and did not agree with "The Laissez-faire" that he opined  the doctrines of laissez-faire are dependent on some extent on a case-by-case basis.

28. Callable bonds generally: A. grant the bondholder the option to call the bond any time after the deferment period. B. are ca
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

E. have a sinking fund provision

Explanation:

Callable bonds are the one wherein the issuer/borrower has an option to redeem the bonds anytime after an initial stipulated period. In case of such bonds, if the issuer decides to redeem the bonds, the holders have to accept the redemption value.

Usually, when market rate of interest on such bonds falls below the coupon rate of such bonds, the issuer redeems such bonds. Thus, such bonds are beneficial to the issuer.

Call protection refers to the period within which such bonds cannot be called or redeemed.

Sinking fund provision refers to transferring a portion of money during the duration of such callable bonds to a separate reserve known as sinking fund, which is created for the purpose of redemption of funds. So when such bonds are to be called, the total money transferred to sinking fund reserve would be raised and used for payment to bondholders.

Creation of such a reserve helps the issuer avoid the pressure of lump sum payment as periodically funds are set aside for the purpose of redemption.

"A forklift will last for only 2 more years. It costs $5,000 a year to maintain. For $20,000 you can buy a new lift that can las
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

a. $2,465.82

b. $3,539.68

c. Yes, we should

Explanation:

Annual cost to maintain old forklift is $5,000

Equivalent Annual Cost (EAC) of new forklift = (Asset price x discount rate)/(1-(1+discount rate)-n), in which n is the number of year for usage of this forklift?

If discount rate is 4% per year, the EAC of new forklift is $2,465.82  

= ($20,000x4%)/(1-(1+4%)-10)

If discount rate is 12% per year, the EAC of new forklift is $3,539.68  

= ($20,000x12%)/(1-(1+12%)-10)

We should replace because with such above discount rate, the old forklift is more costly than the new one

R. C. Barker makes purchasing decisions for his company. One product that he buys costs $50 per unit when the order quantity is
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

a. 300

d. 200

Explanation:

EOQ = \sqrt{(2 * Annual demand * ordering cost) / holding cost } \\

2 * 7500 * 30 / 0.5

EOQ = 948 units

When price is $48 per unit

EOQ = 968 units

Total cost  = Holding cost + ordering cost + purchase cost

When the order is for 500 price is $48

Total cost = $2,400 + $30 + $24,000 = $26,430

When the order is for 300 price is $50

Total cost = $1,500 + $30 + $15,000 = $16,530

When the order is for 306 price is $50

Total cost = $1,530 + $30 + $15,300 = $16,860

When the order is for 200 price is $50

Total cost = $1,000 + $30 + $10,000 = $11,030

The best two possible order quantities are 200 and 300 which results in minimum total cost.
