Answer:
Option (a) and (b) are considered or correct.
Explanation:
Under the following two conditions, a firm in a perfectly competitive market produces at a point where the marginal revenue is equal to the marginal cost:
(i) Minimum AVC < Price < minimum ATC : Yes
In this case, a firm may suffer a loss but it will be able to cover its minimum average variable cost. Hence, this firm continue operating in this market and if he shut down its operation then he may suffer a larger loss. Therefore, it chooses to continue operating under this market conditions.
(ii) Price > minimum ATC : Yes
In this case, the price received by the seller is greater than the minimum average total cost. Therefore, the firm is able to cover all of its cost of production and earning an economic profit. Hence, it obviously chooses to continue its operation.
The third option is not considered here because in this case, the firm won't be able to cover its variable cost.
6.29% is the rate of growth
<u>Explanation:</u>
<u>The following formula is used
</u>
Price = D1 / ke -g
39.86 = 1.2 multiply with (1 + g) / 0.095 - g
3.7867 – 39.86 g = 1.2 + 1.2 g
2.5867 = 41.06 g
Now, we have to calculate the value of g
g = 2.5867 divide 41.06
= 0.0629
= 6.29 %
Where:
G = growth, ke = market rate of return, D1 = dividend ( annual), P = price of the share of company
Answer:
c) $20,000.
Explanation:
The computation of the estimated ending inventory is shown below:
We know that
Cost of goods sold = Beginning inventory + purchase made - ending inventory
And, the
Sales - gross profit = Cost of goods sold
$100,000 - $100,000 × 30% = Cost of goods sold
So, cost of goods sold would be
= $100,000 - $30,000
= $70,000
Now the ending inventory would be
$70,000 = $18,000 + $72,000 - ending inventory
$70,000 = $90,000 - ending inventory
So, the ending inventory would be
= $90,000 - $70,000
= $20,000
Answer:
Should Marston Manufacturing Company accept or reject the project?
Marston C Company should reject the project because its expected return is lower than Division H's cost of capital.
Since the divisions' risk is so different, and probably their projects are also very different, the company should use different costs of capital to accept of reject the projects based on each division's cost of capital.
Imagine another situation where Division L is evaluating a project that yields 10%. If they used the company's WACC, then they should reject the project, but if they used the division's cost of capital, then they should accept the project (in this case I would recommend accepting it).
Explanation:
Division H's risk = 14%
Division L's risk = 8%
WACC = 11%
Answer:
$100 million ; $10 million
Explanation:
Required reserve ratio (r) = 10%
Worth of bond = $10,000,000
The smallest increase can be thought of as being the $10million generated from open market operation and could be held by the bank as reserve.
To calculate the largest increase in deposit:
Money multiplier * deposit (worth of bond)
Money multiplier = (1 / reserve ratio)
Money multiplier = (1 / 0.1) = 10
Increase in deposit = 10 * $10,000,000 = $100,000,000 ( $100 million)
