Answer:
b. the more wealth she has, the less utility she gets from an additional dollar of wealth.
Explanation:
Utility is the satisfaction derived from a good. Total Utility is the total satisfaction from all units of a good. Marginal Utility is the additional satisfaction from an additional unit of a good.
The Law of Diminishing Marginal Utility states that : As consumer gets more & more of a good, the additional utility (satisfaction) from each successive unit keeps on declining. It implies that marginal utility decreases, & total utility increases at a decreasing rate.
Therefore : A person has more marginal utility (additional satisfaction) from an additional dollar, if he has less money (dollars). And, relatively less marginal utility from an additional dollar if he has more money (dollars).
Example : A rich person having millions of dollars would get less marginal utility (additional satisfaction) from gaining a single dollar, than a poor person having few dollars.
Answer:
The computations are shown below:
Explanation:
a. The computation of the economic order quantity is shown below:
= 229 units
The carrying cost is come from
= $2.40 × 20%
b. Time between placement of orders is
= Economic order quantity ÷Annual demand
= 229 ÷ 280
= 0.8179 years
So,
= 0.8179 × 365 days
= 298.53 days
We assume 365 days in a year
c. The average annual cost of ordering cost and carrying cost equals to
= Holding cost + ordering cost
= (Economic order quantity ÷ 2 × Holding cost) + (Annual demand ÷ Economic order quantity × ordering cost)
= (229 units ÷ 2 × $0.48) + (280 ÷ 229 units × $45)
= $54.96 + $55.02
= $109.98
d)
Now the reorder level is
= Demand × lead time + safety stock
where, Demand equal to
= Expected demand ÷ total number of weeks in a year
= 280 pounds ÷ 52 weeks
= 5.38461
So, the reorder point would be
= 5.38461 × 3 + $0
= 16.15 pounds
Answer: <u><em>The adjusting entry at the end of the year will include a credit to Allowance for Doubtful Accounts in the amount of: $750</em></u>

Answer:
The Current share price is $94.79
Explanation:
Dividend Growth Model determines the share price of a company which offers perpetual dividend with stable growth. It is the expected dividend of a share divided by the net return rate of growth rate
.
According to given data
Last dividend = D0 = $3.40
Rate of return = 15%
Growth rates:
For 3 years = 29% per year
After 3 years = 7.3% in perpetuity
Dividend after 3 years = D3 = 3.40 x ( 1 + 0.29 )^3 = $7.30
We can calculate the price of share using following formula:
Price of share = D3 / Rate of return - Growth rate
Price of share = $7.30 / 15% - 7.3% = $7.30 / 7.70% = $94.79
