Now- a quick question. Assume at the beginning of Year2, Becker Company has a credit (positive) balance in the AOCI account of $

castortr0y [4]

Answer:

Becker Company

The amount that Becker will report as Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income on the Year 2 balance sheet is:

= $22,800.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Year 2 Beginning balance:

Accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) = $10,800 credit

Year 2 reported net income = $653,000

Unrealized gain during Year 2 = $12,000

The Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income on the Year 2 balance sheet is:

Beginning balance $10,800

Unrealized gain 12,000

AOCI for Year 2 = $22,800

b) Becker's Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income includes unrealized gains and losses arising from some investments, pension plans, and hedging transactions. These are usually reported in the equity section of the balance sheet and then netted off from the retained earnings.

Ilya [14]

Answer:

$5.74

Explanation:

Q* = 2DS / H[1-(d/p)]

Q² = 2DS / H[1-(d/p)]

S = (Q²)(H)[1 - (d/p) / 2D

Setup cost S = (200^2)*(10)*(1 - (100/800)) / 2*30,500

Setup cost S = 40000*10*0.875 / 61000

Setup cost S = 350000 / 61000

Setup cost S = 5.737704918032787

Setup cost S = $5.74

In a homogeneous-good Cornet model where each of the n firms has a constant marginal cost m and the market demand curve is p = a

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

$Q=nq=\frac{n}{n+1}\frac{a-c}{b}$

if n=1 (monopoly) we have $Q^M=\frac{1}{2}\frac{a-c}{b}$

if n goes to infinity (approaching competitive level), we get the competition quantity that would be $Q^c=\frac{a-c}{b}$

Explanation:

In the case of a homogeneous-good Cournot model we have that firm i will solve the following profit maximizing problem

$Max_{q_i} \,\, \Pi_i=(a-b(\sum_{i=1}^n q_i)-m)q_i$

from the FPC we have that

$a-b\sum_{i=1}^n q_i -m -b q_i=0$

$q_i=\frac{a-b \sum_{i=2}^n q_i-m}{2b}$

since all firms are homogeneous this means that $q_i=q \forall i$

then $q=\frac{a-b (n-1) q-m}{2b}=\frac{a-m}{(n+1)b}$

the industry output is then

$Q=nq=\frac{n}{n+1}\frac{a-c}{b}$

if n=1 (monopoly) we have $Q^M=\frac{1}{2}\frac{a-c}{b}$

if n goes to infinity (approaching competitive level), we get the competition quantity that would be $Q^c=\frac{a-c}{b}$

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

The return on assets is 8.4%

Explanation:

In order to calculate the return on assets we will first need to find the average total assets. We will do this by adding the beginning and ending total assets and dividing it by 2.

Average total assets= (31,500+20,500)/2= 26.000

Now in order to find the return on assets we will divide the net income by the average total assets.

Return on assets = 2,200/26,000=0.084=8.4%
