Answer:
= $560,000
Explanation:
Given that:
- -Beginning PBO: 500,000
- -Current Service Cost: 50,000
- -Discount Rate: 6% => interest cost = 500,000*6% = 30,000
- -Contributions by Pernell: 40,000
- -Benefits paid to employees 25,000
- -Loss on PBO: 5,000
As we know that service cost; gains and losses; payments to retired employees; prior service cost; interest cost; payments to employees are factors that change the balance of the PBO
So the ending balance of the PBO will be:
Beginning PBO + Current Service Cost + Interest cost Loss on PBO -Benefits paid to employees
$500,000 + $50,000+ $30,000+$5,000-$25,000
= $560,000
Answer: b. it's profitable in the short run for another member to increase production.
Explanation:
This refers to an oligopolistic market where there are few producers of a good. These producers can come together to create a cartel that fixes prices for the goods and services they produce.
If they agree to cut back production, this will have the effect of increasing prices due to a reduction in supply. If a member decides to increase production, they would enjoy profits in the short term from the increased prices.
The other members would however respond by increasing production as well so those profits would stop towards the long run.
