Answer:
marginal revenue is -6
and production levels 200, 50
Explanation:
given data
R(x) = 10 x - 0.04 x²
solution
we have given
R(x) = 10 x - 0.04 x²
so here R'(x) is
R'(x) = 10(1) - 0.4 (2x)
R'(x) = 10 - 0.8 x ....................1
so here at x is 20 marginal revenue will be
R'(20) = 10 - 0.8(20)
R'(20) = 10 - 16
R'(20) = - 6
and
when revenue is $400
R(x) = 400
400 = 10 x - 0.04 x²
x= 200, 50

Answer:
113,000.
Explanation:
Let go through all the items to see whether we need to include them in the initial outlay or not.
(1) $100,000 worth of equipment => Yes
(2) Shipping will cost $5,000 and installation will cost $8,000 => Yes (Add to purchase price of equipment)
(3) Paid a management consultant $4,000 to analyze this project => No =>This is sunk cost (already incurred regardless of accept or reject the prject)
(4) Increase sales by $20,000 per year => No => under operating cashflow.
(5) $3,500 to train the employees to use the new equipment => No => under operating cashflow.
So, total initial outlay = 100,000 + 5,000 + 8,000 = 113,000.
Answer:
<u>sell the stock which will drive it's expected return even lower.</u>
Explanation:
An investor wants to be compensated for the risk undertaken in the form of return. When investors believe that a stock is not providing sufficient return, such stocks would be sold by the investor.
When a stock is not performing well i.e it's current market price goes down, all the investors holding that stock will sell it , leading to it's market price going further down.
Since the market price goes further down, the expected return on such a stock would further decline.
Answer:
Explanation:
a)
The YTM of the bond at par value is equals to its coupon rate, 8.75%. Other things being equal, this 4% coupon rate bond will be more eye-catching as the coupon rate is lower than the current market yields, and its price is far below the call price. So, if yields drop, capital gains on the bond will not be restricted by the call price.
b)
If an investor foresees that yields will fall considerably, the 4% bond proposes a better expected return.
c)
Implicit call protection is offered in the sense that any likely fall in yields would not be nearly enough to make the firm consider calling the bond. In this sense, the call feature is almost irrelevant
