Peter, Paul, and Mary go to an all-you-can-eat buffet. The normal entrance fee is $20, but Peter gets in free because it is his

birthday and they have a special. Paul uses a coupon and only pays $10. Mary is the only one to pay the full $20. They are all equally hungry and have an equally large appetite. If they are all rational decision makers, the person who should eat the most is:

Answer:

mary

Explanation:

A rational consumer would consume up to the point that marginal benefit equal marginal cost

Mary paid $20. this means that she places a value of $20 on the meal.

Paul paid $10. this means that he places a value of $10 on the meal

The value Mary places is 20, so she places a higher value and she would consume the most

Peter enters free and thus there is no marginal cost attached to this decision. He should consume the least

Art [367]

Answer: $315,000 deferred tax asset

Explanation:

The amount that Dwyer should record as a net deferred tax asset or liability for the year ended December 31, 2007 will be calculated thus:

= ($2400000 – $1500000) × 35%

= $900000 × 35%

= $900000 × 35/100

= $900000 × 0.35

= $315000.

Therefore, the answer is $315,000 deferred tax asset

A steel mill raises the price of steel by 7% which results in a 20% reduction in the quantity of steel demanded. The demand curv
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

Elastic demand

Explanation:

The price elasticity of demand is described as the sensitivity of demand to changes in its price. A product is price elastic when a small change in prices causes a significant change in quantity demanded. If a small change in price results in minimal impact in quantity demanded, the product is price inelastic.

Steel mill raised its prices by 7 percent. As a result, the demand declined by 20 percent. The demand decreased by a bigger rate than the change in price. It means a small change in price causes the demand to change significantly. Therefore, the demand curve is price elastic.

Cost of Debt KatyDid Clothes has a $150 million (face value) 30-year bond issue selling for 104 percent of par that carries a co
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

the annual pre-tax cost of debt is 10.56%

Explanation:

the beore-tax component cost of debt will be the actual market rate of the bonds, as they offer an interest rate of 11% but are selling at 104 points not at par thus, there is a difference between the rates.

We solve for the rate which makes the coupon and maturity 104

with excel or a financial calculator

PV of the coupon payment

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

C 5.500 (100 x 11%/2)

time 60 (30 years x 2 payment per year)

rate <em>0.052787474</em>

5.5 \times \frac{1-(1+0.0527874736258532)^{-60} }{0.0527874736258532} = PV\\

PV $99.4338

PV of the maturity

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Maturity   100.00

time   60.00

rate  <em>0.052787474</em>

\frac{100}{(1 + 0.0527874736258532)^{60} } = PV  

PV   4.57

<em><u>Adding both we should get 104 which is the amount the bonds is selling:</u></em>

PV coupon $99.4338 + PV maturity  $4.5662 = $104.0000

The rate is generated using goal seek or wiht a financial calculator.

This rate is a semiannual rate, so we multiply by 2 to get the annual cost of debt:

0.052787474 x 2 = 0.105574947

The cost of debt for the firm is 10.56%
