Answer: Please refer to Explanation.
Explanation:
Two Companies. We shall call them A and B.
If A and B decide not to advertise, they both get $5,000,000.
If A advertises and B does not then A captures $3 million from B at a cost of $2 million meaning their payoff would be,
= 5 million - 2 million + 3 million
= $6 million.
A will have $6 million and B will have $2 million as $3 million was captured from them. This scenario holds true if B is the one that advertises and A does not.
If both of them Advertise, they both reduce their gains by $2 million while capturing $3 million from each other so they'll essentially both have just $3 million if they both decide to advertise.
With the above scenarios, it is better for both companies to ADVERTISE if there is NO COLLUSION. This is because it ensures that they do not get the lowest payoff of $2 million if the other company decides to advertise and they do not.
However, if they DO COLLUDE. They must both decide that NONE of them SHOULD ADVERTISE and this would leave them with their original $5 million each which is a higher payoff than the $3 million they will both receive if they were both advertising.
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
The retained earnings will be calculated as:
= Begining retainers earnings + Net income - Dividend.
Year 1:
Retained earning = 0 + 2000 - 1700
= 300.
Year 2:
Retained earning = 300 + 2600 - 1600
= 1300
Year 3:
Retained earning = 1300 + 2600 - 2200
= 1700
Year 4:
Retained earning = 1700 + 5900 - 2900
= 4700
Year 5:
Retained earning = 4700 + 8800 - 3100
= 10400
Answer: Option (A) is correct.
Explanation:
Correct Option: A.supply whatever amount consumers demand at a price determined by the minimum point on the typical firm's average total cost curve.
In the long run, equilibrium price of a perfectly competitive firm implies that there is no economic profit for the firm. This situation occur when the marginal cost is equal to the average total cost.
The firm is break even when the price is equal to the minimum point of average total cost of the firm. So, there is no possibility of economic profit for the firm.
Answer:
For Bagels = 1.33
For Donuts = -1.33
Explanation:
Using the midpoint method, Alex's percentage change in income is given by the difference in income divided by the average income:
Alex's percentage change in demand for both bagels and donuts is given by the difference in the quantity consumed divided by the average consumption:
Alex's income elasticity of demand for bagels and donuts, respectively, is:
His income elasticity of demand for bagels is 1.33, while for Donuts it is -1.33.
Answer:
C. Identify Requirements
Explanation:
Individuals who are assigned the responsibility of resource management should first of all identify resource requirements.
Identification of requirements relates to the quantum of resources required, the place where they are required and the recipient of those resources.
Resource needs and requirements change from time to time as per the situation. Resource requirements mean the quantity and the kind of resources that would be required for completion of a project.
Thus, Identify Requirements determines the type, quantity, receiving location and the users of those resources.
