Answer:

The correct answer is the option B: False.

Explanation:

To begin with, the price discrimination strategy refers to a technique used by the companies in order to charge different prices to the different consumers regarding the fact of how much would they be able to pay for the product. When it comes to monopolies, a perfect price discrimination strategy would try as best as possible to capture the majority of the zone known as the <em>"consumer surplus"</em>. And that is why that a company with a perfect price discrimination would face a small deadweight loss area due to the fact that with that strategy of price the monopolist will absorve as much as possible of that area becuase the triangle is half consumer surplus and half producer surplus.

Answer:

$354 Favorable

Explanation:

Net Operating Income in Planned budget = Revenue - Total Expense

Net Operating Income in Planned budget = (3,100*$35.10) - (3,100*$17.40 + $44,400)

Net Operating Income in Planned budget = $108,810 - $98,340

Net Operating Income in Planned budget = $10,470

Net Operating Income in Flexible budget = Revenue - Total Expense

Net Operating Income in Flexible budget = (3,080*$35.10) - (3,080*$17.40 + $44,400)

Net Operating Income in Flexible budget = $108,108 - $97,992

Net Operating Income in Flexible budget = $10,116

Activity variance for net operating income = Net Operating Income in Planned budget - Net Operating Income in Flexible budget

Activity variance for net operating income = $10,470 - $10,116

Activity variance for net operating income = $354 Favorable

PW = FW×(1+i)^-n

PW = $19340×1.15^-1 + $2280×1.15^-2 + $26600×1.15^-3 + $24240×1.15^-4 + $8770×1.15^-5 = $54250.90

hence PW = $54250.90
