The four-firm ratio is the concentration ratio between the total sales accumulated by the four largest industrial firms to the total sales of all firms present in an industry. This translates to the mathematical expression of
four-firm ratio = (total sales of four largest firms / total sales)
Since, we are given that all 10 firms have the same sales, we let the sales be equal to x.
total sales of four largest firms = 4x
total sales = 10x
The ratio is then,
four-firm ratio = 4/10
Converting this to percentage will yield us an answer of 40%.

Answer: $1639.3
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that Bank A quotes a bid rate of $0.300 and an ask rate of $0.305 for the Malaysian ringgit (MYR) and that bank B quotes a bid rate of $0.306 and an ask rate of $0.310 for the ringgit.
The profit for an investor that has $500,000 available to conduct locational arbitrage goes thus:
Purchasing Malaysian ringgit (MYR) from bank A at the ask rate will be:
= $500,000/$0.305
= 1,639,344.3
Selling the Malaysian ringgit (MYR) at bank B based on the ask rate will be:
= 1,639,344.3 × 0.306
= $501,639.3
The profit for an investor that has $500,000 available to conduct locational arbitrage will be:
= $501,639.3 - $500,000
= $1639.3
Answer:
Instructions are listed below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Mettel Products sells 100,000 flash drives annually to industrial distributors who resell the drives to business customers for $40 each. The distributors’ margins are 25%. Mettel Products’ cost of goods sold is $10.00 each. Mettel’s total variable costs (including selling costs) are $15.00 per drive.
Selling price= 40/1.25= $32
A) Gross margin= 32 - 15= 17
%= 53%
B) Mettel is considering increasing its annual advertising spending from $75,000 to $150,000.
Break-even point= fixed costs/ contribution margin
Break-even points= 150,000/17= 8,824 units
C) Break-even points= 75,000/14= 5,357 units
