Answer:

B. The denial is justifiable given the level of interbrand competition.

Explanation:

Anti trust law only applicable if you can proof that two or more producers in the same industry work together in order to assert their control over the market. They can do this through price fixing, controlling the amount of supply, etc.

This condition<em> can't be found</em> in the scenario above.

The denial that done by PepsiCo is justifiable because in a really competitive market, a company need to impose a strict requirement on which entities they should form a dealership relation with. If PepsiCo choose the wrong dealers, Its competitors could easily taken over the market and resulted in a huge amount of loss for the company.

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

The manufactured overhead was under-estimated.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The actual manufacturing overhead costs incurred were $515,000.

Estimated Manufacturing overhead was $500,000.

Overhead allocation is the distribution of indirect costs to produced goods. When the administration has undervalued and under-funded the amount of money needed for non-production costs, they have under-allocated overhead.

<u>Over applied manufacturing overhead:</u>

<u></u>

Applied overhead>Actual overhead

<u>Under applied manufacturing overhead:</u>

Applied overhead<Actual overhead

In this exercise:

Actual manufacturing overhead - Estimated Manufacturing overhead= 515000- 500000= 15000

scoundrel [369]

Answer: Keynesian Economic Theory

Explanation: The policy adopted by the President was to cut back taxes and increase government spending on road, bridges and schools. This policy of the government is called the expansionary fiscal policy which is used to combat an economy suffering from recession. The Keynesian theory also supports the argument that when an economy is suffering from recession, economic output is influenced by aggregate demand. Thus, the government and use its fiscal policy tools to bring the economy out of recession. It also supports that the Fed can also use its monetary policy to bring the economy out of recession. But since here taxes and government spending are uses, we can say that Obama was a proponent of Keynesian Economic theory.

An individual has utility function U(x)=x1/4U(x)=x1/4 for salary, and is considering new job offer which pays $80,000 with a bon
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

108,280.22

Explanation:

Certainty equivalent is solved by taking the inverse utility function from the expected utility of a random wealth variable

U(x) = x^1/4

U^-1(x) = x^4

U^-1(x) === x^4

CE(x) = x^4

Salary   Bonus   Total income   U(x)= x^(1/4)       P(x)        U(x)*P(x)

80000       0          80000               16.82                1/7             2.4

80000    10000     90000               17.32                1/7            2.47

80000    20000    100000              17.78                1/7            2.54

80000    30000    110000               18.21                 1/7            2.6

80000    40000    120000              18.61                 1/7            2.66

80000    50000    130000              18.99                1/7            2.71

80000    60000    140000              19.34                1/7             <u>2.76</u>

Sum                                                                                             <u>18.14</u>

CE(x) =  18.14^4

CE(x) = 108280.22

So therefore,  the certainty equivalent of this job offer is 108,280.22
