Answer: C. Jill should focus on the business market and license the natural gas rights.
Explanation:
Option C is indeed the right answer. Focusing on the Business Market will get her a better deal because larger companies will be involved.
It would be very advantageous to license the rights as there will be various bids for the license with the largest bid getting it and only for a period of time.
Going with this option can get Jill a better deal all round.
Answer:
$1,395
Explanation:
Total cost of Inventory purchased
= (No. of units × Per unit price) + (No. of units × Per unit price) + (No. of units × Per unit price)
= (240 × 8) +(340 × 10) +(440 × 11)
= 1,920 + 3,400 + 4,840
= $10,160
Number of units purchased = 240 + 340 + 440
= 1,020
Average cost per unit = total cost /No. of units
= 10,160 /1,020
= $ 9.9608 per unit
Cost of ending inventory = 140 × 9.9608
= $1,395
Answer:
Winston took a very good decision.
Explanation:
If Winston is making economic profit then the decision is good
Economic profit=Total revenue-implicit cost - explicit costs
where,
implicit cost= opportunity cost of best alternative and explicit cost is accounting costs
=150000-(60000+4000)-8000
=78.000
The economic profit is positive, a good indicator that Winston took a good decision.
You must look first for the probability of the 4 prizes
which are $500, $100, $25, and no prize.
P ($500 prize) = 1/100 or 0.01
P ($100 prize) = 2/100 or 0.02
P ($25 prize) = 4/100 or 0.04
P (No prize) = 100/100 – 1+2+4/100 =93/100 .93
Expected gain or loss is computed by: (P(x)* n)
E= (500-10)*.01 + (100-10)*0.02 + (25-10)* 0.04 + (-10)*.93
= 4.90 + 1.80 + 0.6 – 9.3
E = -2
There is a loss of $2.
