Answer:

$600,000

Explanation:

Opportunity  cost also known as implicit cost is the cost of the next best option forgone when one alternative is chosen over other alternatives.

the next best option to Bob is to sell the cafe. If he did, he would have earned $600,000. This is his opportunity cost.

$50,000 constitutes a variable cost while $7000 is a fixed cost.

Fixed costs are costs that do not vary with output. e,g, rent, mortgage payments

If production is zero or if production is a million, Rent payments do not change - it remains the same no matter the level of output.  

Variable costs are costs that vary with production

If a producer decides not to produce any output, there would be no need to hire labour and thus no need to pay hourly wages.

Answer:

The time line from minting to the first sale is:

0-192

$15 - $430,000

we can use either the FV or the PV formula. Both will give the same answer since they are the inverse of each other. We will use the FV formula, that is:

FV = PV(1 + r)t

Solving for r :

r = (FV/PV)1/t - 1

r = ($430,000/$15)1/192 - 1

r = .0549, or 5.49%

The time line from the first sale to the second sale is:

0-35

$430,000 - $4,582,500

we can use either the FV or the PV formula. Using the FV formula, that is:

FV = PV(1 + r)t

Solving for r:

r = (FV/PV)1/t - 1

r = ($4,582,500/$430,000)1/35 - 1

r = .0699, or 6.99%

The time line from minting to the second sale is:

0-227

$15 - $4,582,500

we can use either the FV or the PV formula. Both will give the same answer since they are the inverse of each other. We will use the FV formula, that is:

FV = PV(1 + r)t

Solving for r, we get:

r = (FV/PV)1/t - 1

r = ($4,582,500/$15)1/227 - 1

r = .0572, or 5.72%

The Wyeth Corporation produces three products, A, B, and C, from a single raw material input. Product A can be sold at the split
Degger [83]

Answer:

It is preferable to further process Product A.

Explanation:

Product should be processed further before sale if the net incremental benefits from further processing is positive.

The net incremental benefits from further processing is increase in revenue when further processed less further costs of processing.

Increase in revenue=$58,000-$40,000

                                 =$18,000

Further processing costs=$15,000

Net incremental benefits=$18,000-$15,000

Net incremental benefits=$3,000

Since processing further brings a net benefit of $3,000, Product A should be further processed before being sold.
