Nadya [2.5K]

Answer: The answers are given below

Explanation:

a. What is its percentage rate of return?

From the question, we are told that the firm is earning $5.50 on every $50 invested by its founders. The percentage of return will now be:

= $5.50/$50 × 100%

= 0.11 × 100%

= 11%

b. Is the firm earning an economic profit? If so, how large?

The economic profit will be the difference that exists between the percentage of return which is 11% and the normal rate of profit which is 5%. This will be:

= 11% - 5%

= 6%

The firm is earning economic profit of 6%.

c. Will this industry see entry or exit?

There will be entry into the industry. This is because the percentage of return which is 11% is greater than the normal rate of profit which is 5%.

d. What will be the rate of return earned by firms in this industry once the industry reaches long-run equilibrium?

The rate of return earned by firms in this industry once the industry reaches long-run equilibrium will be 5% which is the normal rate of profit in the economy.

The following income statements were drawn from the annual report of The Western Sales Company. Year 2 Year 1 Sales 40,000 40,00

aniked [119]

Answer:

$9,555

Explanation:

As for the trend provided, the year 3 Sales will also be $40,000

Cost of goods sold will be $25,000

gross margin = $15,000

Operating expenses are decreasing with time by $\frac{9,000 - 7,000}{9,000} = 0.22$

Thus, it will decrease with the same trend = $7,000 - 22.22% = $5,445

Rounded off

Therefore, net income = $15,000 - $5,445 = $9,555

Note: Gain on sale of land is one time event and not permanent, thus it will not be considered as part of trend.
