Jose Peacher is an executive with a large manufacturing company. A former coworker of his recently started a company and raised

$1 million from a well-known angel investor even though he did not need the money to launch the business. Jose thinks his friend is foolish and cannot think of a single reason to take money from an investor if you do not require the funds to launch. If you were talking to Jose about his view, what would you tell him about this matter?

Answer:

You have to consider that angel investors invest money in exchange for equity, so it is a very cheap way of getting financed. There are two ways of evaluate what happened:

  1. Jose's friend was probably irresponsible for accepting the money from the angel investor, although he will not pay any interests for it.  The problem here is that Jose's friend might spend the extra money in frivolous activities or unnecessary expenses, e.g. rent a very fancy and expensive office. When you have a lot of extra money in your hands, it is very easy to spend it. OR
  2. Another way of analyzing what happened is that Jose's friend may want to share the risk of the new entrepreneurship with someone else. Maybe he/she has enough money to invest, but he/she is not willing to take the risk of investing it all himself/herself. Getting financed by an angel investor is a way of reducing your personal risk. Remember that a sole proprietor is personally liable for all of the company's obligations, but that changes for a LLP, LLC or a corporation.

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer: The optimal price is higher than market price by less than $0.50.

Explanation:

Since, it was given that Coase theorem doesn't hold in this situation, hence, the social marginal cost is greater than the private marginal cost by $0.50. The social marginal cost curve lies towards the left of demand curve.

Since the demand and supply curve are not perfectly elastic or inelastic, so the optimal equilibrium occurs at a point (price) which is greater than the prevailing market price, but the difference in the price is less than $0.50.

Therefore, the optimal price is higher than market price by less than $0.50.

Because advertising is often designed to add ________ value to a product or brand, it plays a more important communications role
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

The correct answer is Psychological.

Explanation:

Advertising is not only limited to advertisements in magazines, newspapers, radio, television or the Internet. In fact, it is practically in everything around us. The way to place the products in the department stores, the color and size of the potato chip packages, the price of the clothes, the subtlety of the words on the radio ... Everything that makes a product attractive and steals our attention serves as a powerful means to advertise it.

Therefore, all of us, when we buy or consume, seek to distinguish ourselves from others. In addition, this desire to stand out, to be different and unique, is what advertising psychology acts on. And when these individual differences are established, other concepts such as motivation arise in parallel.

PLEASE HELP!!! ONLY GOOD ANSWERS,

The sooner you need the money, the less risk you will be willing to take on.

If you have until you retire, you may be more willing to gamble on riskier investments for the potential of bigger returns because if it doesn't work out you will still have plenty of time to make up the loss. However, if you need the money sooner for a car you should only take on a minimal amount of risk.

Determine the missing amounts. (Round answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 1,225.) Unit Selling Price Unit Variable Costs Unit Cont
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Unit Selling Price     Unit Variable Costs    Unit Contribution  Margin Contribution Margin Ratio

1. $570 $420    

Unit Contribution  Margin= Unit Sales Price Less  Unit Variable Price =

$ 570- $ 450 = $150 (a)

Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution Margin/ Sales = 150/570* 100= 26 % (b)

2. $490      $490 -$130= $360 (c) $130        ($ 130/ $490)* 100= 27 % (d)

3. $23000 (e) $22540 (f) $460 2

Unit Contribution  Margin $460

Contribution Margin Ratio  2

Contribution Margin Ratio= Unit Contribution  Margin/Sales=  $460/ Sales  =2 %

$460/ Sales  =2 %

Sales = $ 460/2%= $ 23000

Sales - Unit Contribution  Margin = $ 460

Unit Contribution  Margin= Sales- $460 = $ 23000- $ 460= $ 22540

Single factory overhead amount: the amount at which plant overheads or processing overheads are assigned to goods is referred to as single plant overhead rate.

Formula to measure a single plant-wide overhead rate:

Single plant-wide overhead rate :

\frac{Total budgeted factory overhead}{ Total budgeted plant-wide allocation base}  

Different development team overhead rate: this distribution system describes the various divisions engaged in the manufacturing cycle. Factory overheads are assigned to goods on the basis of the overhead cost for each of the manufacturing units.

Multiple production department overhead rate:

\frac{ Budgeted department factory overhead}{ Budgeted department factory overhead}

For calculate: single plant-wide overhead rate use direct working hours (DLH) as the allocation basis, and measure factory overhead.

Using DLH as the allocation basis to measure a single plant-wide overhead limit.

Single plant-wide overhead rate :  \frac{Total budgeted factory overhead}{ Total budgeted plant-wide allocation base}

                                                     = \frac{80,000}{10,000 DLH}
