Answer:

Liagiba industry = 2400

Haras industry = 2818

Explanation:

The HHI is calculated by squaring the market share of each firm in the industry.

Liagiba industry = 35² + 25² + 15² + 15² + 10² = 1225 + 625 +225 + 225 + 100 = 2400

Haras industry = 35² + 30² +25² + 8² + 2² = 1225 + 900 + 625 + 64 + 4 = 2818

mezya [45]

Answer:

Part 1

Revised depreciation expense =  $32,000

Part 2

The entry to record depreciation expense :

Debit : Depreciation Expense $32,000

Credit : Accumulated Depreciation $32,000

Explanation:

Straight line method charges a fixed depreciation charge over the year of use of an asset.

<em>Depreciation expense = (Cost - Salvage Value) ÷ Estimated Useful Life</em>

2021

Depreciation expense = $80,000

2022

Old Depreciation expense = $80,000

New Depreciation expense = Depreciable Amount ÷ Remaining Useful Life

                                              = ($240,000 - $80,000) ÷ 5

                                              = $32,000

Answer:

Answer for the question  

Some observers had argued that Uber’s greatest problem was not any of its scandals, but its CEO Travis Kalanick. Now that Kalanick no longer serves that role, how much better off is Uber really? Where do you come down? Do you think Kalanick’s reduced profile will turn the tide for Uber? Or is Kalanick’s drive and competitiveness necessary to Uber’s continued success, regardless of the title he holds? If you were on the board, what would you recommend? And why?

Is given in the attachment.

In a homogeneous-good Cornet model where each of the n firms has a constant marginal cost m and the market demand curve is p = a
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

Q=nq=\frac{n}{n+1}\frac{a-c}{b}

if n=1 (monopoly) we have Q^M=\frac{1}{2}\frac{a-c}{b}

if n goes to infinity (approaching competitive level), we get the competition quantity that would be Q^c=\frac{a-c}{b}

Explanation:

In the case of a homogeneous-good Cournot model we have that firm i will solve the following profit maximizing problem

Max_{q_i} \,\, \Pi_i=(a-b(\sum_{i=1}^n q_i)-m)q_i

from the FPC we have that

a-b\sum_{i=1}^n q_i -m -b q_i=0

q_i=\frac{a-b \sum_{i=2}^n q_i-m}{2b}

since all firms are homogeneous this means that q_i=q \forall i

then q=\frac{a-b (n-1) q-m}{2b}=\frac{a-m}{(n+1)b}

the industry output is then

Q=nq=\frac{n}{n+1}\frac{a-c}{b}

if n=1 (monopoly) we have Q^M=\frac{1}{2}\frac{a-c}{b}

if n goes to infinity (approaching competitive level), we get the competition quantity that would be Q^c=\frac{a-c}{b}
