Answer:

$0.50

Explanation:

A profit-maximizing monopolist maximizes profit at the point where its marginal revenue (MR) is equal to its marginal cost (MC) (i.e. where MR = MC).

In economics, MR is equivalent to price per unit (P).

Since the profit-maximizing monopolist charged $0.50 per pound of meat, that means P = $0.50.

Since MR = P, it implies that MR = P = $0.50.

Also, since a profit-maximizing monopolist maximizes profit at MR = MC, it implies that MR = P = MC = $0.50.

Therefore, the monopolist's marginal cost must be $0.50.

Andru [333]

Answer:

7.28%

Explanation:

Coupon rate = 8%

Nper = 10 (25-15)

PMT = 80 (1000*8%)

FV = 1000

PV = 1050

Yield to maturity = Rate(Nper, pmt, -pv, fv)

Yield to maturity = Rate(10. 80, -1050, 1000)

Yield to maturity = 0.072789069

Yield to maturity = 7.28%

Thus, the pretax cost of debt is 7.28%.

isk Co. purchases raw materials on account. Budgeted purchase amounts are April, $96,000; May, $126,000; and June, $136,000. Pay
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Given that Payments are made as follows: 70% in the month of purchase and 30% in the month after purchase, therefore, firstly we need to differentiate the total amount of purchases of each month into 70% and 30%. 70% of the purchases will be paid in current month and balance 30% of the purchases will be ending accounts payable for that month and paid in next month. This is shown as follows:

Particulars                                         April         May          June

Current month purchases  70% $67,200  $88,200    $95,200

Ending accounts payable   30%   $28,800   $37,800    $40,800

Total purchases                             $96,000  $126,000  $136,000

The schedule of budgeted cash payments for the month of April May and June are shown as follows:-

                            Schedule of Cash Payments    

                               For April, May, and June

                                                                      April           May         June

Cash payments for:

Current month purchases                          $67,200   $88,200   $95,200  

Prior month purchases                               $38,000   $28,800   $37,800

Budgeted cash payments for materials  $105,200 $117,000  $133,000

ella [17]
Answer: 0.59 ± 0.081 = (0.671, 0.509)  
Explanation: 
The sample proportion, p = 118/200 = 0.59 
The test statistic at 98% confidence interval is given by : 
p + z*Sqrt(p(1-p)/n) ; p - z*Sqrt(p(1-p)/n) 
z at 98% C.I. is 2.33 
Therefore, 0.59 + 2.33 * sqrt(0.59*(1-0.59)/200) and 0.59 + 2.33 * sqrt(0.59*
(1-0.59)/200)
 =0.59 + 0.081 and 0.59 - 0.081
 =0.671, 0.509
