Svetlanka [38]

Answer: The present value of the new drug is $19.33 million

We follow these steps to arrive at the answer:

Expected Revenues from the drug in year 1(P)   $2 million

Growth Rate (g)                                                        2% p.a.

No. of years  (n)                                                      17 years  

Discount rate (r)                                                        9% p.a.

Since the revenues are expected to grow at a constant rate of 2% p.a, we can treat this series of cash flows as a <u>growing annuity. </u>

We calculate the Present Value of a growing annuity with the following formula:

PV = \frac{P}{r-g}*\left [ 1- \left (\frac{1+g}{1+r}\right)^{n}\right]

Substituting the values we get,

PV = \frac{2}{0.09-0.02}*\left [ 1- \left (\frac{1+0.02}{1+0.09}\right)^{17}\right]

PV = \frac{2}{0.07}*\left [1- 0.323558233\right]

PV = 28.57142857 * 0.676441767

PV = 19.32690763

Assume that a​ firm's marginal cost is​ $10 and the elasticity of demand is minus2. We can conclude that the​ firm's profit-maxi
inysia [295]

Answer:

Option A. $20

Explanation:

Marginal cost be MC, marginal revenue be MR and . We know that

MR = ∆TR ÷ ∆Q

or

MR = (P∆Q+Q∆P) ÷ ∆Q

Here,

P is Profit-maximizing price

or

MR = (P∆Q ÷ ∆Q) + (Q∆P ÷ ∆Q)

or

MR = P + (Q∆P ÷ ∆Q)

we can also write the above equation as

MR = P + P(\frac{Q}{P})(\frac{\Delta P}{\Delta Q})

also,

Price elasticity of demand PED =  (\frac{Q}{P})(\frac{\Delta P}{\Delta Q})

or

MR = P + [ P ÷ (PED) ]

We know MR = MC

Therefore,

MC = P +  [ P ÷ (PED) ]

(P − MC) ÷ P = −1 ÷ PED

Substituting the values provided in the question

MC = $10

PED = -2

we get

P = [ PED ÷ (1 + PED)] × MC

P = ( -2 ÷ -1) × 10

or

P =$20

hence,

Option A. $20

In preparing a responsibility income statement that shows contribution margin and responsibility margin, two concepts are involv
Ivenika [448]

Answer: Whether the costs are variable or fixed and whether they are directly traceable to the responsibility center.

Explanation:

The Responsibility Income Statement is one where the different centers in a business have their own sub income statement so that the activities of each center and their profitability is measured and monitored.

In this statement, costs are classified as Variable and Fixed so it is important that it is known whether the costs are variable or fixed.

As the statements are per center, the costs in them would have to be only those that are directly traceable to that center so that a truer reflection of the statements can be seen.
