. Division B is involved only with contractual short-term projects and therefore has about ten percent less risk than Division A. Division C develops and markets new products and is about ten percent riskier than Division A and about equal in size to Division B. The manager of Division A has suggested that the operations of his division be increased by 10 percent next year.

Answer: 100%

Explanation:

The Weighted Average Cost of Capital calculates the required return needed to fund any of the company's projects because it shows the cost of capital of raising funds for that project.

The cost does not increase or decrease based on the proportion of a business that a department is as any department/ project will incur that cost. The cost of the new project will therefore be the same as the company WACC.

For a particular flight from Dulles to SF, USAir uses wide-body jets with a capacity of 430 passengers. It costs the airline $4,
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

$370.69

Explanation:

Given the following :

Capacity (n) = 430

Cost incurred by airline per flight = $4000 + $60 per passengers

If ticket price = T ; (430 - 0.58T) are expected to book.

Determine the ticket price, T, that will maximize the airline's profit.

Profit = Revenue earned - cost incurred

Revenue earned = capacity * price = nT

Cost incurred = $4000 + $60n

Profit = nT - (4000 + 60n)

If ticket price = T ; (430 - 0.58T) are expected to book. Then n = (430 - 0.58T)

Profit = (430 - 0.58T)T - ($4000 + 60(430 - 0.58T))

Profit = 430T - 0.58T^2 - ($4000 + 25800 - 34.8)

Profit = 430T - 0.58T^2 - 4000 - 25800 + 34.8

Profit (P) = - 0.58T^2 + 430T −29834.8

Taking the first derivative of P

P' = 2(-0.58T) + 430

P' = - 1.16T + 430

Hence solve for price (T) when P' = 0

0 = - 1.16T + 430

1.16T = 430

T = 430 / 1.16

T = 370.68965

Price = $370.69

The total utility from consuming five donuts is 9, 19, 30, 38, and 45 utils, respectively. Marginal utility begins to diminish a
Sonja [21]

Answer:

third

Explanation:

The utility for consuming the first donut is 9 utils.

The utility for consuming the second donut is the difference from the total utility for the first two and just the first donut.

U_2 = 19-9 = 10\ utils

The utility for consuming the third donut is the difference from the total utility for the first three and just the first two donuts.

U_3 = 30-19 =11\ utils

The utility for consuming the fourth donut is the difference from the total utility for the first four and just the first three donuts.

U_4 = 38-30 =8\ utils

Since the utility for the 4th donut is less than the utility for the 3rd donut, utility begins to diminish after consuming the third donut.
