Which of the following is LEAST likely to be a reason for firms to form a cartel?

Business
1 answer:
GalinKa [24]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": to raise competition among firms in the cartel.

Explanation:

A cartel is a group of companies or countries working together to regulate the price of a single product they produce in common. The cartel makes it impossible for a foreign business to enter the market and demand lower prices. Cartels are, in most cases, not helpful to customers. They generate high prices that remain unchanged until consumers find alternative ways to purchase the same items.

Under such a scenario,<em> cartels are unlikely to be formed to generate more competition among the companies that compose them.</em>

asambeis [7]

Answer:

EPS of Plan I = $3.19

EPS of Plan II = $2.82

Explanation:

Under Plan I:

Plan I's Earning per share (EPS) = EBIT ÷ Number of shares = $575,000 ÷ 180,000 = $3.19

Under Plan II:

Interest = $2,600,000 × 8% = $208,000

Earning after Interest = EBIT - Interest = $575,000 - $208,000 = $367,000

Plan II's EPS = $367,000 ÷ 130,000 = $2.82
