Answer:
see below
Explanation:
Resources are the ( inputs) materials used in the production of goods meant for sale. The cost of inputs has a direct impact on the price of the finished goods(output). An increase in the cost of inputs increases the cost of production. An increase in production cost increases without a corresponding rise in the selling price means that the profits margin per unit will decline.
Suppliers are motivated to sell or deliver more quantities in the market by profit prospects. An increase in the costs of inputs decreases profit margins. Reduced profits margin result in suppliers supplying reduced quantities in the markets.
Answer:
Product substitute
Explanation:
Product substitute is defined as one that meets similar needs of the consumer. As demand for one of such goods rises the demand of the other tends to fall as the meet similar needs.
In the given scenario organic meats are seen as being substituted by organically grown nuts as a source of protein.
So when Hain Celestial has dwindling sales of organic meats they were considering organically grown nuts as a different product to give to customers
Answer:
The answer is that the net income under absorption costing would be higher than the net income under variable costing.
Explanation:
Absorption costing and variable costing are terms used in accounting contexts. Absorption costing, also known as full costing, incurs overhead costs when the product is sold; not before it. Variable costing, also referred to as direct costing, would include overhead costs during the period the costs occurred. In this condition, net income would be higher using absorption since overhead costs would not be included until the product is sold.
Answer:
a) 7% as their market price will adjsut to give the same yield as the market
b) bond P = -10.17
bonds D = 10.07
Explanation:
we have to calcualte the price variation of the bonds from now (10 years to maturity) to next year (9 years)
Bond P
C 90.000
time 10
rate 0.07
PV $632.1223
Maturity 1,000.00
time 10.00
rate 0.07
PV 508.35
PV c $632.1223
PV m $508.3493
Total $1,140.4716
then, at time = 9
C 90.000
time 9
rate 0.07
PV $586.3709
Maturity 1,000.00
time 9.00
rate 0.07
PV 543.93
PV c $586.3709
PV m $543.9337
Total $1,130.3046
Capital loss: 1,130.30 - 1,140.47 = -10.17
We repeat the process for bond D
C 50.000
time 10
rate 0.07
PV $351.1791
Maturity 1,000.00
time 10.00
rate 0.07
PV 508.35
PV c $351.1791
PV m $508.3493
Total $859.5284
C 50.000
time 9
rate 0.07
PV $325.7616
Maturity 1,000.00
time 9.00
rate 0.07
PV 543.93
PV c $325.7616
PV m $543.9337
Total $869.6954
Capital gain: 869.70 - 859.53 = 10.07
