Answer:
$16,000
Explanation:
With regards to the above information, we are only concerned with calculating the value of 20 tons of styrene to the company, hence other information are not relevant.
The total value of the 20 tons of styrene monomer to the company would be ;
= 20 tons of styrene monomer × Market price of styrene monomer per ton
= 20 × $800
= $16,000
Answer:
Alice's consumer surplus = $5
Jeff's consumer surplus = $16
Nicole's producer surplus = $1
Explanation:
Consumer surplus is the difference between the willingness to pay of a consumer and the price of a good.
Consumer surplus = willingness to pay - price of the good
Producer surplus is the difference between the price of a good and the least price the producer is willing to accept
Producer surplus = price of the good - least price the producer is willing to accept
Alice's consumer surplus = $30 - ($35 - $10) = $5
Jeff's consumer surplus = $20 - [$16 - (0.75 x $16)] = $16
Nicole's producer surplus = $501 - $500 = $1
Answer:
0.74
Explanation:
Jones corporation reported a current assets of $196,000
The current liabilities is $138,500
The current assets consists of $61,000 cash , account receivable= $42,100, inventory= $92,900
Therefore the quick ratio can be calculated as follows
= cash + account receivables
= $61,000 + $42,100
= $103,100
$103,100/$138,500
= 0.74
Hence the acid test(quick ) ratio is 0.74
