Ceteris paribus assumes things like confidence and income remain the same, so that we may study simply the interaction between interest rates and the demand for loans and ignore how all the other variables might affect the outcome.

kiruha [24]

Answer: $535,251.25

Explanation:

Cash flow to investors from operating activities is calculated by:

= EBIT + Depreciation - Taxes

EBIT = Sales - Cost of goods sold - Depreciation

= 1,484,000 - 803,000 - 175,000

= $506,000

Taxes = Tax rate * (EBIT - Interest)

= 35% * (506,000 - 89,575)

= $145,748.75

Cash flow to investors = 506,000 + 175,000 - 145,748.75

= $535,251.25

anastassius [24]

Answer:

Production= 13,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Estimated inventory (units), June 1 18,500

Desired inventory (units), June 30 19,000

Expected sales volume (units):

Area X 3,000

Area Y 4,000

Area Z 5,500

Total= 12,500

To calculate the production for the period, we need to use the following formula:

Production= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

Production= 12,500 + 19,000 - 18,500

Production= 13,000

Which of the following would make it easier to maintain an effective collusive agreement in a cartel?

GalinKa [24]

Answer:

A decrease in the elasticity of demand for the cartel's product.

Explanation:

The cartel is under the control of companies operating in the same area. This is undesirable. It is concluded between businesses and these contracts prevent competition. Such arrangements are also prevented by governments, which aims to promote competition among governments across the country. This type of arrangement creates unity and demonstrates business behavior in activities that prevent other competitors from entering the sector.

Adverse effects on consumers include:

1) Higher prices - cartel members can raise prices, which reduces the demand elasticity of any member.

2) Lack of Transparency - Members may agree to hide prices or hide information such as hidden charges in credit card transactions.

3) Limited production - Members may agree to limit market production, such as OPEC and oil quotas.

4) Build Market - Cartel members can collectively divide a market into regions or regions and not compete in each other's territory.
