Answer:
a. Plan I is better is we drive 300 miles in a day.
b. 150 miles.
Explanation:
a. if mileage is 300 then rental charges will be,
Plan I : $36 + 17 cents * miles
$36 + 0.17 * 300 = $41.10.
Plan II : $24 + 25 cents * miles
$24 + 0.25 * 300 = $99.00
Plan I total cost for 300 miles is $41.10 whereas Plan II total cost for 300 miles is $99.00. Plan I is better plan and cost effective.
b. For mileage (m) calculation we will use equation;
Plan I = Plan II
$36 + 0.17m = $24 +0.25m
0.25m - 0.17m = $36 - $24
m = $12 / 0.08
m = 150 miles.
Answer:
(a) E(X) = 3
(b) Var(X) = 12.1067
Explanation:
(a) E[X]
E[X]T = E[X]T=A + E[X]T=B + E[X]T=C
= (2.6 + 3 + 3.4)/3
= 2.6 (1/3) + 3(1/3) + 3.4(1/3)
= 2.6/3 + 1 + 3.4/3
= 3
(b) Var (X) = E[X²]−(E[X])²
Recall that if Y ∼ Pois(λ), then E[Y 2] = λ+λ2. This implies that
E[X²] = [(2.6 + 2.6²) + (3 + 3²) + (3.4 + 3.4²)]/3
= (9.36 + 12 + 14.96)/3
= 36.32/3
= 12.1067
Var(X) = E[X²]−(E[X])²
= 12 - 3²
= 12.1067 - 9
= 3.1067
Answer:
$288
Explanation:
Since the total property taxes for the year are $1,140, to find the property tax per month we have to divide by 12 ⇒ $1,140 / 12 = $95 per month
The seller is responsible for paying the property taxes during 3 months and 1 day, to find out the amount for that 1 day we divide the monthly tax by 30 = $3.17 per day.
the total seller's credit = ($95 x 3) + $3 = $285 + $3 = $288
*The seller's credit includes all the expenses that must be paid by the seller, while the seller's debit includes all the money that he receives.
Answer:
The adjustment at month-end is :
Supplies Expense $400 (debit)
Supplies $400 (credit)
Explanation:
The Supplies Account is an asset Account that decreases as the supplies are used in the business.
The use of supplies prompts the recognition of an <em>expense</em> and de-recognition of an <em>asset</em> as follows :
<em>Supplies Expense $400 (debit)</em>
<em>Supplies $400 (credit)</em>
Answer:
A decrease in the elasticity of demand for the cartel's product.
Explanation:
The cartel is under the control of companies operating in the same area. This is undesirable. It is concluded between businesses and these contracts prevent competition. Such arrangements are also prevented by governments, which aims to promote competition among governments across the country. This type of arrangement creates unity and demonstrates business behavior in activities that prevent other competitors from entering the sector.
Adverse effects on consumers include:
1) Higher prices - cartel members can raise prices, which reduces the demand elasticity of any member.
2) Lack of Transparency - Members may agree to hide prices or hide information such as hidden charges in credit card transactions.
3) Limited production - Members may agree to limit market production, such as OPEC and oil quotas.
4) Build Market - Cartel members can collectively divide a market into regions or regions and not compete in each other's territory.
