Answer:

Fair Value method, and only a portion of Ima's 2004 dividends represent earnings after Pal's acquisition.

Explanation:

The part of the dividend that reduce the carrying value of the investment can be said to be a liquidating dividend. Liquidating dividend is said to have occurred when the payment made by the investee is higher than the income that was earned in the course of the period in which the shares of the investee was owned by the investor.

On the other hand, the cost method treats liquidating dividends as spend or reduction in the investment account and treats normal dividend as income. Hence it is impossible for the firm to use equity method.

This is because dividend are seen as a reduction in investment account under the equity method. This means that dividends received cannot be taken as income in this method, hence C and D are wrong.

AP MICROECONOMICS 1. GW Company produces and sells hats in a perfectly competitive market at a price of $2 per hat. Assume that
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

With the information in the question, we can make the following table:

Number of        Output of     Marginal  Marginal  Marginal

workers/day     hats/day       Product   Revenue  Cost

0                        0                    0              $0             $0

1                         10                   10            $20           $15

2                        26                  16            $32           $15

3                        36                  10            $20           $15

4                        44                  8              $16            $15

5                        49                  5             $10            $15

6                        52                  3             $6             $15

(a) After which worker do diminishing marginal returns begin?

As it can be seen in the table, after the third worker is hired, the diminishing marginal returns begin, because while the marginal product of the second worker is 16 hats, the marginal product of the third worker is 10 hats.

(b) Calculate the marginal physical product of the fifth worker.

The marginal product of the fifth worker is 5 hats.

(c) Calculate the marginal revenue product of the third worker.

The marginal revenue of the third worker is $20.

(d) How many workers will GW hire to maximize profit?

It should hire four workers. By the fourth worker, the marignal revenue is $16, while the marginal cost of hiring the additional fourth worker is $15. In a perfectly competitive market, the profit maximization point is obtained where marginal revenue = marginal cost, which is almost the case here.

(e) if GW Company has fixed costs equal to $20, what will be the company's short-run economic profits from hiring two workers?

If two workers are hired, the total revenue is $52. If the company has fixed costs of $20, and hires two workers costing each $15, the total costs are $50, therefore, in the short-run, the profit is $2.

(1) If the price of hats increases, what will happen to the number of workers hired in the short run?

The number of workers hired will increase because a higher price for hats means a higher marginal revenue for each worker.
