Answer: A. $250 million
Explanation:
The firm is a Monopoly and is lobbying Congress to remain that way. As a monopoly it makes $10 million a year and wants to remain a monopoly for the next 25 years.
Assuming there is no discount rate which means that the value of money stays the same over the 25 years, if they succeed in Congress, they have a chance to make a total profit of,
= 10 million * 25 years
= $250 million
If the maximum amount the firm can make if the lobbying is successful is $250 million, this is the maximum they will pay to lobby for a deterrence to entry. If they pay any amount more than $250 million, they will be making a loss and therefore it would make no sense to spend that amount of the lobbying.
Answer:
Stock's expected total return for the coming year is 9.27%
Explanation:
P0 = D0(1+g) / (r-g)
$32 = 1.75 * (1 + 3.6%) / (r - 3.6%)
32 = 1.75 * (1.036) / (r - 0.036)
32 = 1.813 / (r - 0.036)
32*(r - 0.036) = 1.813
32r - 1.152 = 1.813
32r = 1.813 + 1.152
32r = 2.965
r = 2.965 / 32
r = 0.09265625
r = 9.265625%
r = 9.27%
<u>Solution and Explanation:</u>
Since interest rate is the cost of borrowing, lower interest rate decreases the cost of borrowing for housing mortgage, which increases demand for housing.
It is very much clear from the demand and interest rate have a certain relationship. If the interest rate on a particular amount is lower then the customers will try to get more amount as the cost on such amount will be less which means the burden on the customers would be lower.
Answer:
This question has two requirements answer of each requiremnt is given below.
Dispose of the overhead variance by adjusting Cost of Goods Sold. Adjusted COGS $____
Applied Overhead = 532,000 * 80% =$ 425,600
This show that overhead are over apllied, so
Adjusted COGS = $1,890,000 - (425,600 -423,600)
= $ 1,888,000
Calculate the overhead variance for the year. $____
Overhead variance = Applied Overhead - Actual Overhead
= 425,600 -423,600
= $ 2000 (Favorable variance)
