You rent a car for $29.95. The first 150 miles are free, but each mile thereafter costs 15 cents. You plan to drive it 200 miles
kari74 [83]

Answer:

marginal cost is 15 cents

Explanation:

given data

car rent = $29.95

distance d1 = 150 miles

cost = 15 cents per miles

distance d2 = 200 miles

to find out

marginal cost

solution

first we find here cost for driving d2

cost for 150 to 200 miles  = 15 × 50

cost for 150 to 200 miles  = 750 cents = $7.5

so

cost for driving d2  = $7.5 + $29.95

cost for driving d2 = $37.45

so

marginal cost will be

marginal cost = change in cost / chance in distance

marginal cost = 37.45 - 39.95   /   ( 200-150)

marginal cost = 7.5 / 50  = 0.15

marginal cost is 15 cents

Anarel [89]

Answer:

Contraction:

Explanation:

The contraction period is the time between the peak  (highest growth rate) and the trough ( the lowest growth rate).  At contraction, the GDP value declines from its peak to the lowest or negative growth rate. Contraction means a shrink in economic activities.

During contraction, the unemployment rate rising as employers lay-off workers due to reduced demand. Incomes and profits decline, and the GDP value decreases to low or negative values. The contraction period starts with a recession, which is a decline in GDP value for two consecutive quarters.

Standard, Inc. reported EBIT of $35 million for last year. Depreciation expense totaled $20 million and capital expenditures cam
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

$710.84 million

Explanation:

Net income = $35 million

Depreciation = $20 million

Capital expenditures = $7 million

Tax rate = 21%

D/E ratio = 0.4

Growth rate = 6%

Equity beta = 1.25

So, firm's asset beta = Equity beta/(1 + D/E*(1-T))

= 1.25/(1 + 0.4*(1-0.21))

= 0.94985

So, Free Cash Flow to the Firm= NI + Depreciation - Capital expenditures

= 35 + 20 - 7

= $48 million

Risk free rate Rf = 5%

Market risk premium = 7.5%

So, firm cost of capital using CAPM is Rf + Beta*(MRP)

Kc = 5 + 0.94985*7.5

Kc = 12.1239

So, Firms value using constant dividend growth model:

FV = FCF*(1+g)/(Kc-g)

FV = 48*1.06 / 0.121239-0.06

FV = 50.88 / 0.061239

FV = 830.8430901876255

FV = $830.84 million

Debt = $120 million

Market Value of equity = FV - Debt

Market Value of equity = $830.84 million - $120 million

Market Value of equity = $710.84 million
