Answer:
The 1-year HPR for the second stock is <u>12.84</u>%. The stock that will provide the better annualized holding period return is <u>Stock 1</u>.
Explanation:
<u>For First stock </u>
Total dividend from first stock = Dividend per share * Number quarters = $0.32 * 2 = $0.64
HPR of first stock = (Total dividend from first stock + (Selling price after six months - Initial selling price per share)) / Initial selling price = ($0.64 + ($31.72 - $27.85)) / $27.85 = 0.1619, or 16.19%
Annualized holding period return of first stock = HPR of first stock * Number 6 months in a year = 16.19% * 2 = 32.38%
<u>For Second stock </u>
Total dividend from second stock = Dividend per share * Number quarters = $0.67 * 4 = $2.68
Since you expect to sell the stock in one year, we have:
Annualized holding period return of second stock = The 1-year HPR for the second stock = (Total dividend from second stock + (Selling price after six months - Initial selling price per share)) / Initial selling price = ($2.68+ ($36.79 - $34.98)) / $34.98 = 0.1284, or 12.84%
Since the Annualized holding period return of first stock of 32.38% is higher than the Annualized holding period return of second stock of 12.84%. the first stock will provide the better annualized holding period return.
The 1-year HPR for the second stock is <u>12.84</u>%. The stock that will provide the better annualized holding period return is <u>Stock 1</u>.
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
The accounting profit is $30,000. 
Explanation:
The implicit cost of running the restaurant is the opportunity cost of giving up a salary of $40,000 per year working as a chef.  
The revenue earned from the restaurant is $100,000.  
The explicit costs is  
= $50,000 + $20,000
= $70,000  
An accountant will consider only the accounting cost or explicit cost in the calculation of profits.  
Accounting profit
= Total revenue - Explicit costs
=  $100,000 - $70,000  
= $30,000  
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
1. 20 units
2. $600
Explanation:
1. 
MC = 4q
Price, P = $80
For maximizing profits, 
Marginal cost =  Price of the commodity
4q = 80
q = 20 units


          = 200 + 800
          = 1,000
2. Profit = Total revenue - Total cost 
              = (Price × Quantity) - TC
              = (80 × 20) - $1,000
              = $1,600 - $1,000
              = $600
3. We know that the firm in the short run will be produce at a point where total revenue is greater than the total variable cost
Average variable cost = variable cost ÷ quantity
                               
                                      = 2Q
MC = 4Q
Here,  MC is greater than AVC at any given point. 
so in the short run firm will producing short run positive profit.
