Answer:

The correct answer is the option C: earn positive economic profits.

Explanation:

In microeconomics, all the companies in a perfectly competitive industry at the short-run might <em>earn positive economic profits due to the fact that at short-term many companies might leave</em> the industry in the case that they do not earn normal profits and that <em>causes that the companies that stay will earn positive economic profit</em>. In addition to that, at the long-run more companies will enter the industry and therefore all the firms might earn zero economic profit that is equal to normal economic profit.

You are considering investing $1,000 in a complete portfolio. The complete portfolio is composed of Treasury bills that pay 5% a
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

amount to be investment in risky portfolio =  $405

amount invest in security x = $243

amount invested in security Y = $162

Explanation:

given data

investing = $1,000

Treasury bills = 5%

optimal weights of X = 60 %

optimal weights of Y = 40 %

expected rate of return x =  14%

expected rate of return y = 10%

solution

we know that

                      weight                     return                     return from risky port

X                     60 %                         14 %                       8.4 %

Y                     40 %                          10 %                       4%

total                                                                                 12.4 %

so here

return from risky portfolio is = 12.4 %

and

return from risk free investment = 5 %

so 'we consider here investment in risky portfolio = x

so investment in risk free  = 1 - x

so we can say that

12.4 % × x + 5 % × (1-x) = 8 %

solve we get

x = 0.405

so investment in risky portfolio = 0.405

so investment in risk free  =0.595

and

amount to be investment in risky portfolio = $1000 × 0.405

amount to be investment in risky portfolio =  $405

and

amount invest in security x = $405 × 60%

amount invest in security x = $243

and

amount invested in security Y = $405 × 60%

amount invested in security Y = $162

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

Explicit costs - $51,000

Explicit costs are those for which a person incurs in actual spending of money. In this case, Christine had to pay $15,000 in wages, and $36,000 in rent ($3,000 x 12). These are expenses that she had to pay money for, and that had to be accounted for in the accounting books, and in the financial statements. These are in other words, explicit costs.

Implicit costs - $40,000

Implicit costs are simply the opportunity costs. An opportunity cost is the cost of the next more valuable alternative when faced with two or more options. No money is paid for this costs. The implicit costs for Christine were the $40,000 that she not receive as wages if she had continued working at a real state firm.

Advanced Enterprises reports year−end information from 2019 as​ follows: Sales​ (160,250 units) ​$969,000 Cost of goods sold ​(6
Ilya [14]

Answer:

Cost of goods sold = $576,900

Explanation:

The budgeted cost of goods sold will be the sales volume in 2020 multiplied by cost per unit .

Sales volume in year 2020= (100-10)% ×  sales figure for 2019

                                            = 90% × 160,250=  144,225  

Cost of goods sold per unit =  cost of goods sold in 2019/Sales units in 2019

                                              = 641,000/160250=$4

Cost of goods sold =  $4× 144,225 =  $576,900

Cost of goods sold = $576,900
