Answer:
65 firms will be in the industry at the new long run equilibrium
Explanation:
in the long run the P=ATC
quantity before the change is
200 = 1000-4Q
4Q = 800
Q= 200
each firm output = Q/number of firms = 200 / 50
q = 4
new quantity is
200 = 1240-4Q
4Q = 1040
Q = 260
number of firms=new Q/q
=260/4 = 65
the number of firms is 65 in the long run.
Answer: $324,000
Explanation:
Cedar Corp. paid $432,000 for a year in advance. According to the Accrual principle in Accounting, expenses are to be recorded only when incurred.
The rent will therefore have to be apportioned to the months that it has paid for in the current period.
Rent for year = $432,000
Rent for month = 432,000/12 = $36,000
April - December = 9 months
Rent for the year = 9 * 36,000
= $324,000
Note; <em>Question is about Rent expense which is how much Cedar Corp has paid not about how much they have received. </em>
