kirill115 [55]

Answer:

Complete information

Explanation:

A limiting pricing can be described as a strategy that is employed by an incumbent to prevent entry by maintaining a price lower than the monopoly price.

Among the tax proposals regularly considered by Congress is an additional tax on distilled liquors. The tax would not apply to b
Lelu [443]

Answer:

Liquor consumers

Explanation:

Price elasticity measures the degree of responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price. Demand is elastic if a small change in price has a great effect on quantity demanded. The coefficient of elasticity is usually greater than 1.

Demand is inelastic if changes in price has little or no impact on the quantity demanded. Coefficient of elasticity is usually less than 1.

The elasticity of demand for liquor is -0.4 while the elasticity of supply for liquor is 3.5. Therefore the demand for liquor is inelastic while the supply of liquor is elastic.

If taxes are imposed on consumers, the quantity demanded wouldn't change or change a little.

If taxes are imposed on suppliers, the quantity supplied would fall more.

Therefore , the burden of tax can be passed on more to consumers.

I hope my answer helps you.

Houston Houston Office Equipment manufactures and sells metal shelving. It began operations on January​ 1,2014.
Vanyuwa [196]

Solution:

1) If 2 pounds of direct materials are used to make one unit of finished product, then 115,000 units × 2 lbs, or 230,000 lbs were used at $0.65 per lb of direct materials i.e. ($149,500 ÷ 230,000 lbs.).

The Formula for calculating Ending Direct Material Cost =  [Ending Direct Material Inventory * Cost per lb]

Therefore, Ending Direct Materials cost is 1,900 lbs. * $0.65 = $1,235.

2) Manufacturing Costs for 115,000 units  

   Variable Fixed Total

   Direct materials costs – $149,500  + Direct manufacturing labor costs – 31,500  + Plant energy costs – 3,000  + Indirect manufacturing labor costs

 

   (Variable + Fixed) i.e. 15,000+12,000 - 27,000  + Other indirect manufacturing costs

 

   (Variable + Fixed) i.e. 10,000+32,000 - 42,000

    So, Cost of goods manufactured - $253,000

Average unit manufacturing cost = $253,000 ÷ 115,000 units

                                                       = $2.20 per unit

Finished Goods Inventory at Dec. 31, 2014 = $15,400

Therefore Finished goods inventory total units = $15400 / $2.20

                                                                                = 7,000 units

3) Units sold in 2014 = Beginning inventory + Production – Ending inventory

                                   = 0 + 115,000 –7,000

                                 = 108,000 units

Therefore, Selling price in 2014 = Total Revenues / Units Sold

                                                      = $583,200 ÷ 108,000

                                                      = $5.40 per unit

4) Operating Income for 2014

            Revenues(108,000 units sold × $5.40) = $583,200

           Cost of units sold:

            Beginning finished goods, Jan. 1, 2014 = $0

            Cost of goods manufactured = $253,000

           Cost of goods available for sale = $253,000

           Ending finished goods, Dec. 31, 2014 = $15,400

           So, Cost of Units sold ($253000 - $15400) = $237,600

Therefore, Gross margin = Total Revenue - Cost of Units Sold

                                          = $583,200 - $237,600

                                         = $345,600

Operating costs:  Marketing, distribution, and customer-service costs

Variable + Fixed i.e. ($126,000 + $48,000) = $174,000

Administrative costs = $57000

Total Operating Costs = $231,000

Therefore Operating income for 2014 = $345600 - $231,000

                                                                = $114600

A bond with 16 years to maturity and a semiannual coupon rate of 4.93 percent has a current yield of 5.29 percent. The bond's pa
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

Price of bond= $1,922.92

Explanation:

<em>The value of the bond is the present value(PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV). </em>

Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV  

Semi-annual interest = 4.93% × 2,000 × 1/2 =49.3

Semi-annual yield = 5.29%/2= 2.65%

PV of interest payment

PV = A (1- (1+r)^(-n))/r

A- 49.3, r-0.02645, n- 16×2

= 49.3× (1-(1.02645)^(-10)/0.02645)  

= 1,055.521

PV of redemption Value

<em>PV = F × (1+r)^(-n) </em>

F-2000, r-0.02645, n- 16 ×2

PV = 2,000 × 1.02645^(-16×2)

PV = 867.402

Price of Bond  

1055.52  + 867.40 =1,922.92

= $1,922.92
