Which of the following statements regarding SPT and WSPT is INCORRECT?

A firm in a perfectly competitive market has a fixed cost of $1,000 and a variable cost of $500 while it is earning the revenue

grin007 [14]

Answer:

Firm should not shut down, as it is able to cover its Average Variable Cost

Explanation:

Perfect Competition firms in Short Run : The firms produce even if their average revenue (price) < their average total costs (AC). They continue production until Average variable cost (AVC) ≥ per unit price (P) i.e average revenue (AR). This is called Shut Down Point. P lower beyond AVC implies that firm won't continue even in short run.

Given : Variable Cost (VC) = 500 ; Revenue (R) = 510

Average Variable Costs & Average Revenue are variable costs & revenue, per unit quantity. AVC = VC / Q ; AR (P) = R / Q

R i.e 510 > VC i.e 500

So, R/ Q i.e AR is also > VC / Q i.e AVC

Since AVC > AR (P), firm should not shut down

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

Three years ago, you invested $3,350.00. Today, it is worth $4,100.00. What rate of interest did you earn

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

6.97%

Explanation:

the formula to be used is

The formula for calculating future value:

FV = P (1 + r)^n

FV = Future value

P = Present value

R = interest rate

N = number of years

$4,100.00 = $3,350.00 x ( 1 + r)^3

divide both sides of the equation by $3,350.00

$4,100.00 / $3,350.00 = ( 1 + r)^3

1.223881 = ( 1 + r)^3

find the cube root of both sides

1.069661 = 1 + r

r = 6.97%

Taxable income and pretax financial income would be identical for Skysong Co. except for its treatments of gross profit on insta

inessss [21]

Answer:

See the journal entry below.

Explanation:

Before preparing the journal entry, the following are calculated first:

Income tax expense in 2019 = (Taxable income in 2019 * Tax rate in 2019) + (Taxable income in 2020 * Tax rate in 2020) + (Taxable income in 2021 * Tax rate in 2021) = ($158,000 * 40%) + ($195,000 * 45%) + ($92,100 * 45%) = $193,395

Deferred tax liability in 2019 = (Taxable income in 2020 * Tax rate in 2020) + (Taxable income in 2021 * Tax rate in 2021) = ($195,000 * 45%) + ($92,100 * 45%) = $129,195

Income tax payable in 2019 = Taxable income in 2019 * Tax rate in 2019 = $158,000 * 40% = $63,200

Income tax payable in 2020 = Taxable income in 2020 * Tax rate in 2020 = $195,000 * 45% = $87,750

Income tax payable in 2021 = Taxable income in 2021 * Tax rate in 2021 = $92,100 * 45% = $41,445

The journal entry will look as follows:

Date General journal Debit ($) Credit ($)

31 Dec 2019 Income tax expense 193,395

Deferred tax liability 129,195

Income tax payable 63,200

(To record income tax payable.)
