Answer: Hi your question is incomplete attached below are the missing details

answer :

A) 16 used DVDs

B) i) $18

   ii) $6

   iii) $8

Explanation:

<u>A) Determine the weekly shortage of used DVDs due to ceiling price = $11</u>

shortage = Quantity demanded ( H ) - Quantity supplied ( F )

at ceiling price of $11 ; quantity demanded = 20 , Quantity supplied = 4

                = 20 - 4  = 16 used DVDs

B) i) <em>New consumer surplus = ADLK </em>

ADLK = ∠ ABK + BKLD

          = 1/2 * 4 * 1 ) + ( 15 - 11 )*4 = $18

<em>ii) New producer surplus = DLE </em>

DLE = 1/2 * 4 * ( 11-8 )

       = $6

<em> iii) Total economic surplus lost </em>

ΔKJL = 1/2 ( 8 - 4 ) * ( 15 - 11 )

         = $8

EastWind [94]

Answer:

The weighted-average unit contribution margin is $610

Explanation:

Hi, first we need to find the contribution margin for each line of product. This is as follows.

Laptops

Price-Var.Cost= Contrib.Margin

700-300=400

Desktops

1,800-700=1,100

Now, the weighted-average unit contribution margin is as follows.

Contrib.Margin(Laptops)*Percent(Laptops)+Contrib.Margin(DeskT)*Percent(DeskT)

1,100*0.3+400*0.7=610

So, the weighted-average unit contribution margin for this company is $610

Best of luck

yarga [219]

Answer:

14.1%

Explanation:

Cash return on assets is the ratio of a company's operating cash flow to its average total assets. It shows how a company is generating cash flow from its assets and compares a company’s profitability with other companies.

Cash return on assets = operating cash flow / average total assets

Given that:

operating cash flows = $240,000

Average total assets = ($1.6 million + $1.8 million) / 2 = $1.7 million.

Therefore, Cash return on assets = $240000 / $1.7 million = 0.141 = 14.1%

Depending on what type of costs are incurred by the company, the account credited will vary, e.g. if units are replaced, then inventory must be credited, or if units are repaired and only labor is used, then wages payable or cash should be credited. Since the question doesn't give us a lot of details, I credited cash.
