Suppose the demand for Digital Video Recorders (DVRs) is given by Q = 250 - .25p + 4pc, where Q is the quantity of DVRs demanded
PIT_PIT [208]

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question

Suppose the demand for Digital Video Recorders (DVRs) is given by Q = 250 - .25p + 4pc, where Q is the quantity of DVRs demanded (in 1000s), p is the price of a DVR, and pc is the price of cable television. How much does the quantity demanded for DVRs change if the p rises by $40? A) drops by 10,000 DVRs B) increases by 16,000 DVRs C) drops by 2,500 DVRs D) increases by 4,000

Answer:

Drops by 10,000 DVRs

Explanation:

The demand for digital video recorders is expressed by

Q= 250- .25p+4pc

Where

Q represents the quantity demanded by the customers

P represents the price of DVR

pc represents the price of cable television

Since the factor of p in the expression above is negative, this implies that the quantity of DVR demanded in the market will reduce

If the price of DVR increase by $40, then the quantity demanded will reduce by

= 0.25×40×1000

= 10×1000

= 10,000 units

Hence the quantity of DVRs drops by 10,000 DVRs if the price is increased to $40

= -100000 + 25018 +20864 +17400 +14511 +12101 +10092

= 0 ( approx )

ser-zykov [4K]

The price value of the exercise:

= $127

The expiration date price value is:

= $135

Calculating the profit for Calls buyer:  

= $135-$127

= $12

Call option Total purchase price:

=  $12 × 100

Rugrat Company has the following information for the current year: Beginning fixed manufacturing overhead in inventory $190,000
inessss [21]

Answer:

$140,000

Explanation:

The  difference between operating incomes under absorption costing and variable costing based on fixed expenses is shown below:

Variable costing:

Fixed manufacturing overhead in production $750,000

Absorption costing:

The Fixed cost would be

= Beginning fixed manufacturing overhead in inventory + Fixed manufacturing overhead in production - Ending fixed manufacturing overhead in inventory

= $190,000 + $750,000 - $50,000

= $890,000

So, the difference would be

= $890,000 - $750,000

= $140,000

garik1379 [7]

Answer:

1,065 U

Explanation:

Materials Price Variance = Actual Quantity Purchased * (Standard Price – Actual Price)Actual Price= Total Cost / Quantity Purchased

= ($27,690 /21,300 )=$ 1.3

=21,300* [$1.25 – $1.3]
