Answer:

$6,500

Explanation:

For computing the estimated fixed cost, we have to determine the variable cost per hour which is shown below:

Variable cost per hour = (High power cost - low power cost) ÷ (High machine hours - low machine hours)

= ($20,000 - $11,000) ÷ (12,000 hours - 4,000 hours)

= $9,000 ÷ 8,000 hours

= $1.125

Now the fixed cost equal to

= High power cost - (High machine hours × Variable cost per hour)

= $20,000 - (12,000 hours × $1.125)

= $20,000 - $13,500

= $6,500

Answer:

16.96%

Explanation:

In this question, we apply the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) formula which is shown below

Expected rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)

= 5.8% + 1.8 × (12% - 5.8%)

= 5.8% + 1.8 × 6.2%

= 5.8% + 11.16%

= 16.96%

In the short run, a perfectly competitive firm should shut down whenever minimum average variable cost exceeds price minimum ave

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

A. minimum average variable cost exceeds price.

Explanation:

In a perfect competition, there are many buyers and sellers of homogeneous products, and there is free entry and exit in the market.

This simply means that, in a perfectly competitive market, there are many buyers and sellers (price takers) of homogeneous products (standardized products with substitute) and the market is free (practically open) to all individuals or business entities that are willing to trade all their goods and services.

Hence, a perfectly competitive market is characterized by the following features;

1. Perfect information.

2. No barriers, it is typically free.

3. Equilibrium price and quantity.

4. Many buyers and sellers.

5. Homogeneous products.

Examples of a perfectly competitive market are the Agricultural sector, e-commerce and the foreign exchange market

In the short run, a perfectly competitive firm should shut down whenever minimum average variable cost exceeds price.

However, the firms always strive to maximize profits by increasing their level of output, such that P = MC. Also, the firms wouldn't be willing to leave or enter into the market because they are not making any profit, such that P=AC.
