Answer:

$ 10512000

Explanation:

The market value of Madison investment which is the aggregate value of the company's investment =$ 12 million

The book value = assets - liabilities = (1700000 - 419000) ×0.4 = $ 51240

The year-end balance = $ 51240 + $ 10 million = $ 10512000 approx

A company could improve its acid-test ratio by selling some equipment it no longer needs for cash. a. True b. Flase
kari74 [83]

Answer:

true

Explanation:

acid test ratio can be calculate by ( Current assets – Inventory ) / Current liabilities. Ideally, the acid test ratio should be 1:1 or higher, however this varies widely by industry. In general, the higher the ratio, the greater the company's liquidity. by selling up equipment in exchange of cash, the will assist the company to be able to handle its current liability with the cash injection into the entity.

For the following demand equation compute the elasticity of demand and determine whether the demand is elastic, unitary, or inel
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

Note: While answering this question, there is a confusion as to whether the correct demand equation is p= 157 − x2 as it appears in the question, or p= 157 − x^2 which is suspected to be the correct equation. Whichever the case may be, answers are provided for the two equations. Just confirm from the original question or your teacher which one is correct and pick the relevant answer out of the two following answers:

1. If p= 157 − x2 is the correct equation:

Elasticity of demand = - 0.15

Since -0.15 in absolute term |-0.15| is less than 1, the demand is inelastic.

2. If p= 157 − x^2 is the correct equation:

Elasticity of demand = - 0.28

Since -0.28 in absolute term |-0.28| is less than 1, the demand is also inelastic.

Explanation:

Elasticity of demand is the degree of responsive of quantity demanded of a good to change in its price.

For this question, elasticity of demand can be computed using the formula for calculating the elasticity of demand as follows:

1. If p= 157 − x2 is the correct equation

E = Elasticity of demand = (p / x) * (dx / dp) ............................... (1)

From the question, we have:

p = 157 − x2.

Therefore, we solve for as follows:

x2 = 157 - p

x = (157 - P) / 2

x = 78.5 - 0.5p ....................................................... (2)

Differentiating equation (2) with respect to p, we have:

dx/dp = -0.5

Substituting values for dx/dp and x into equation (1), we have:

E = [p / (78.5 - 0.5p)] * (-0.5)

Since p = 20, we have:

E = [20 / (78.5 - (0.5 * 20))] * (-0.5)

E = [20 / (78.5 - 10)] * (-0.5)

E = − 0.15

Since -0.15 in absolute term |-0.15| is less than 1, the demand is inelastic.

2. If p = 157 − x^2 is the correct equation

E = (p / x) * (dx / dp) ............................................ (1)

From the question, we have:

p = 157 − x^2.

Therefore, we solve for as follows:

x = 157^(1/2) – p^(1/2)

x = 157^0.5 – p^0.5 ........................................... (2)

Differentiating equation (2) with respect to p, we have:

dx/dp = -0.5p^(-0.5) = -0.5/p^0.5

Substituting values for dx/dp and x into equation (1), we have:

E = (p / x) * (dx / dp)

E = [p /  (157^0.5 – p^0.5)] * [ -0.5/p^0.5]

Since p = 20, we have:

E = [20 /  (157^0.5 – 20^0.5)] * [–0.5/20^0.5]

E = - 0.28

Since -0.28 in absolute term |-0.28| is less than 1, the demand is inelastic.
