Answer:

The difference between the monopolistic price charged in England and the monopolistic price charged in the United States will be = 27

Explanation:

Y1 = 7200 -100p1 = > p1 = 72 – y1/100

Y2 = 3600 – 200p2   = > p2 = 18 – y2/200

The cost of monopolist (since it’s the same firm and uses same technology) shall be same in both countries, hence let us assume marginal cost to be say c

Now the first order condition for Profit Maximisation of a monopolist yields

Marginal Revenue = Marginal cost

= > Marginal Rev US = c = Marginal RevEngland…………………..i

Now, Revenue in US = p1y1 = y1(72 – y1/100)

MR US = dRev/dy1 =   72 – y1/100 -y1/100 = 72 – y1/50

Similarly MR­Eng = 18 – y2/100

Hence putting the above derivations in i:-

72 – y1/50 = 18 – y2/100

Now putting values for y1 and y2 again the above equation becomes:-

72 – (7200 -100p1)/50 = 18 – (3600 – 200p2)/100

= > 54 – 144 + 2p1 = -36 + 2p2

= > 2(p1 – p2) = -36 + 90 = 54

= > p1 – p2 = 27

Answer:

Economic Order Quantity is the level of inventory that minimizes the total inventory holding costs and ordering costs. It is one of the oldest classical production scheduling models. Economic order quantity refers to that number (quantity) ordered in a single purchase so that the accumulated costs of ordering and carrying costs are at the minimum level. In other words, the quantity that is ordered at one time should be so, which will minimize the total of. Cost of placing orders and receiving the goods, and Cost of storing the goods as well as interest on the capital invested.

Darcy Roofing is faced with a decision. The company relies very heavily on the use of its 60-foot extension lift for work on lar
marishachu [46]

Answer:

Darcy should replace the lift

Explanation:

Scenario 1: Darcy Roofing keeps the old lift

refurbishing costs ($31,000)

no other changes in revenues or costs*

net cash flow = ($31,000)

*The $67,200 spent repairing the lift the previous year are considered sunk costs because they cannot be recovered regardless of what decision the company makes.

Scenario 2: Darcy Roofing purchases a newer lift

cost of newer lift ($132,500)

salvage value of old lift $19,500

reduced costs per year x 6 years = $22,400 x 6 = $134,400

additional rental income x 6 years = $8,000 x 6 = $48,000

net cash flow = $69,400**

**Since we are not given any discount rate, we cannot discount the cash flows to determine the present value of the project. With a discount rate of 0, the NPV of purchasing the lift is much higher than the alternative of keeping the old lift.
