Answer:
240
Explanation:
The computation of the optimal fee per unit of output is as follows:
As we know that
Marginal cost = Price
MC = P
1Q = 2,400 - Q
1Q + Q = 2,400
2Q = 2,400
Q = 2,400 ÷ 2
= 1,200
MC = 0.8Q
= 0.8 (1,200)
= 960
Now the optimal fee per unit of output is
= 1,200 - 960
= 240
Answer:
present value = $8396.19
Explanation:
given data
cash flow = $10,000
rate r = 6 %
time period t = 3 years
to find out
present value of the note
solution
we get here present value that is expressed as
present value =
....................1
put here value and we will get present value
present value =
solve it we get
present value = $8396.19
Answer: 15000; 3750
Explanation:
From the question,
Q = 660 – 12P
MC = 5
The consumer surplus in a perfectly competitive market will be:
P = MC
Therefore, P = 5
Q = 660 - 12P = 660 - 12(5) = 660 - 60 = 600
Consumer surplus = 1/2 × (55 - 5) (600)
= 1/2 × 50 × 600
= 15,000
For monopoly, MR = MC
Total Revenue = P × Q
Since Q= 660 - 12P
P = (660 - Q)/12
TR = P × Q
= (660 - Q)/12 × Q
= (660Q- Q²)/12 × Q
MR = (660 - 2Q)/12
MR = MC
(660 - 2Q)/12 = 5
(660 - 2Q) = 5 × 12
660 - 2Q = 60
2Q = 660 - 60
2Q = 600
Q = 600/2
Q= 300
Since P =(660 - Q)/12
= (660 - 300)/12
= 360/12
= 30
Consumer surplus = 1/2 × (55 - 30) (30)
= 1/2 × 25 × 300
= 3750
Therefore, the answer is 15000; 3750
Answer: Market Efficiency
Explanation:
It is important that the Government as a regulator should not get involved in acts that would protect individual institutions from failure because that would defeat the whole purpose of a competitive industry.
If a government is known to directly involve itself in the protection of institutions from failure, efficiency in institutions may become low because of the lack of fear of failure as companies believe that should they run into bad times, they will simply be bailed out by the government so there is no need for them to maintain a competitive edge.
This can lead to a situation where we have companies performing sub optimally in an economy which can only act to reduce the Economic growth of a country.
Government institutions usually have such backing and in a lot of countries are prone to failure. Look at the Bamangwato Concessions Limited (BCL) mine in Botswana for instance that kept failing and refusing to improve it's efficiency because they could always run back to the government for a bailout. Their position eventually became so untenable that bankruptcy was the only option.
Answer: 7.46%
Explanation:
The CAPITAL ASSET PRICING MODEL is a very useful tool for calculating a firm's Cost of Equity.
The Formula is,
Rc = Rrf + b(Rpm)
Where,
Rc is the Cost of Equity
Rpf is the Risk risk free rate
b is beta
Rpm is the risk premium
Plugging in the digits we have,
Rc = 0.0350 + 0.88(0.045)
= 0.0746
The firm's cost of equity from retained earnings based on the CAPM is therefore 7.46%
