Answer:

The cash paid on May 8 is: $5,880

Explanation:

Credit terms of 2/10, net 30 means that 2% discount for the payment within 10 days and the full amount to be paid within 30 days.

The company purchased $6,500 of merchandise on May 1. On May 6, it returned $500 of that merchandise.

The balance owed for merchandise = $6,500 - $500 = $6,000

On May 8, it paid the balance owed for merchandise, taking any discount it is entitled to.

The company took the appropriate discount:

2% x $6,000 = $120

The cash paid = $6,000 - $120 = $5,880

In the attached excel, the following calculations are made:

Deposits = $500 million - $25 million = $475 million

Reserves = $475 million * 20% = $95 million

Loans = $475 - $95 = $380

3. Because BSB is cutting back on its loans, other banks will find they have lower reserves, causing them to reduce their loans. Which of the following ways represent an alternative for BSB to return to its original reserve ratio? Check all that apply.

4. Which of the following ways represent an alternative for BSB to return to its original reserve ratio? Check all that apply.

Two firms, A and B, must each choose either a low price or a high price for their product. The payoff matrix shows the profit

ahrayia [7]

Answer: 1. A.Both firms will choose the low price.

2. B. Both firms would choose the high price.

Explanation:

1. If the firms cannot cooperate with each other and must choose simultaneously, both firms will choose the low price.

This is because at the low price both of them are at the highest profit they can make when they are not cooperating. For instance, if Firm B chooses Low Price and Firm A chooses High Price, Firm A will make $3 million while Firm be will make $8 million.

If Firm B decides to have a high price then firm A will take the low price and make $8 million in profit while Firm B makes $4 million. If they are not working together, they will both have to take the low price to make the most profit.

2. If the firms could cooperate with each other, both firms would choose the high price.

The is because they will be making more than competing and getting a lower profit. Should they cooperate they will each get $7 million in profit because they will pick the option they can both make the highest profit at. The is better than competing and making only $5 and $6 million respectively.

If you need any clarification do comment. Cheers.
