Are monopolies economically​ efficient? Consider the market to the right. Compared to the perfectly competitive​ outcome, what would be the change in surplus if instead the market had one supplier that was a ​ monopoly?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Deadweight loss (Triangle between all three lines, hits all three points).

Explanation:

This is explained to be triangle between all three lines as it hits all three points involved.

It can also be explained to be Harberger's triangle in the sense that the loss occurring in the trade of a good or service due to market power of buyers or sellers or a government intervention, or other bodies concerned is lost due when it is not produced maximumly to reach everyone who meeds it.

Deadweight loss, also can be a measure of lost economic efficiency when the socially optimal quantity of a good or a service is not produced. Non-optimal production can be caused by monopoly pricing in the case of artificial scarcity, a positive or negative externality, a tax or subsidy, or a binding price ceiling or price floor such as a minimum wage.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

depreciation expense - factory building, $133,000

direct labor, $250,000

factory utilities, $105,000

The conversion costs are the sum of direct labor and manufacturing overhead.

Manufacturing overhead= 133,000 + 105,000= 238,000

Direct labor= 250,000

Conversion costs= $488,000

The focused differentiation strategy differs from the differentiation strategy in that Group of answer choices a. the focused differentiators have a broader competitive scope b. the value-creating activities of focused differentiators are more constrained. c. focused differentiators target a narrower customer market d. there are fewer risks with the focused differentiation strategy.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is option C) The focused differentiation strategy differs from the differentiation strategy in that focused differentiators target a narrower customer market.

Explanation:

Product differentiation is a marketing strategy that creates competitive advantage with designing a product superior to that of rivals, priced higher and sometimes created for exclusive users.

However, the focused differentiation strategy takes it a step further by targeting a small group of customers with ostensible goods.

The bourgeoisie are the main target for focused differentiators. They have the economic power to foot the bill and they enjoy the exclusivity of being the few to consume such products. A good example of such products is the Bugatti and Ferrari.

Assume that at the end of 2019, Clampett, Inc. (an S corporation) distributes property (fair market value of $40,000, basis of $5,000) to each of its four equal shareholders (aggregate distribution of $160,000). At the time of the distribution, Clampett, Inc., has no corporate earnings and profits and J.D. has a basis of $50,000 in his Clampett, Inc., stock. What is J.D.'s stock basis after the distribution

Answers

Answer:

J.D.'s stock basis after the distribution is $85,000

Explanation:

In order to calculate the J.D.'s stock basis after the distribution we would have to use the following formula:

J.D.'s stock basis after the distribution=original basis +increase/decrease in basis from gain from property distribution

original basis=$50,000

basis from gain from property distribution=$40,000-$5,000

basis from gain from property distribution=$35,000

Therefore, J.D.'s stock basis after the distribution=$50,000+$35,000

J.D.'s stock basis after the distribution=$85,000

Financial statement data for the years ended December 31 for Parker Corporation are as follows: Current Year Prior Year Sales $2,595,600 $2,409,498 Fixed assets (net): Beginning of year $901,070 $820,000 End of year 829,330 901,070 a. Determine the fixed asset turnover ratio for the current and prior years. Round your answers to one decimal place. Current Year: Prior Year: b. Does the change in fixed asset turnover ratio from the prior year to the current year indicate a favorable or unfavorable trend

Answers

Answer:

we need to calculate the Average Fixed assets for both the periods.

Average Fixed Assets = (Fixed Assets at the beginning + Fixed assets at the ending period)/2

Current Year = ($901070+829330)/2

= 1730400/2

=$865200

Prior Year = $820000+901070

= 1721070/2

= $860535

Fixed Assets Turnover = Sales/Average Fixed Assets

Current year = $2595600/865200

= 3

Prior Year = $2409498/860535

= 2.8

b) There is an increase in the Fixed asset turnover which indicates an increase in efficiency of using fixed assets to generate sales.

Answer:

a. Current year 1.5  Prior year 1.4

b.  Yes it indicates a favorable trend as it shows that sales of $1.50 was generated for every $1 invested in current year as against $1.40 for every $1 invested in prior year.

Explanation:

Fixed Asset turnover is the ratio of revenue to average Fixed assets of a company.

It is a financial indicator that shows how much revenue a company generates in an accounting period for each $ 1 invested in assets (fixed asset in this case).

Average assets in the

current year

= $901,070 + $829,330

= $1,730,400

Prior year

= $820,000 + $901,070

= $1,721,070

As such fixed assets turnover for

current year

= $2,595,600/$1,730,400

= 1.5

prior year

= $2,409,498/$1,721,070

= 1.4

A firm that has an ROE of 12% is considering cutting its dividend payout. The stockholders of the firm desire a dividend yield of 4% and a capital gain yield of 9%. Given this information, which of the following statements is (are) correct? I. All else equal, the firm's growth rate will accelerate after the payout change. II. All else equal, the firm's stock price will go up after the payout change. III. All else equal, the firm's P/E ratio will increase after the payout change. Multiple Choice I only

Answers

Answer:

I only is correct. That is, all else equal, the firm's growth rate will accelerate after the payout change.

Explanation:

Holding every other condition constant, the cutting of the company's dividend payout will lead to a permanent fall in the dividend per share and this will cause a decrease in price.

However, the cutting the company's dividend payout will increased the retention rate that will increase the growth rate of the company.

Therefore, all else equal, the firm's growth rate will accelerate after the payout change.

 

The following information will be used for 2 questions on this exam: Charlotte Corporation's management keeps track of the time it takes to process orders. During the most recent month, the following average times were recorded per order: Time spent between receipt of order and start of production 3.7 days Time spent ensuring quality levels 0.2 days Time spent working on the product 1.3 days Time spent transporting the product between work stations 0.8 days Time spent waiting to be worked on in the factory 6.9 days What is the throughput time?

Answers

Answer:

6.00 days

Explanation:

data provided

Inspection time = 3.7 days

Process time = 0.2 days

Move time = 1.3 days

Queue time = 0.8 days

The calculation of throughput time is given below:-

Throughput time = Inspection time + Process time + Move time + Queue time

= 3.7 days + 0.2 days + 1.3 days + 0.8 days

= 6.00 days

Here, we added the inspection time, process time , move time and queue time to reach at throughput time and we ignore the time spent waiting to be worked on in the factory as it is not relevant.

Suppose that you are the international treasurer of Apple with an extra U.S. $10 million to invest for 9 months. You are considering the purchase of U.S. T-bills that yield 1.50% annual rate.

A. 14.5515 B. <8.8975 C. >13.4983 D. 12.5050

Answers

Answer:

Japan Interest Rate = 0.15%  

Explanation:

As per Interest Rate Parity Theory

Spot Rate : 1$ = 100

Forward Rate : 1 $ = 110

r = 9/12

As per interest rate parity, forward rate = Spot rate(1+Interest rate Japan)/(1+Interest rate US)

Forward rate = Spot rate *(1+ iD)/(1+iF)

110 / 100 = (1 + Japan Interest Rate * 9 /12)  / 1.01125

1.1 * 1.01125 = 1 + Japan Interest Rate * 0.75

1.112375 = 1 + Japan Interest Rate * 0.75

Japan Interest Rate * 0.75 = 1.112375 - 1

Japan Interest Rate * 0.75 = 0.112375

Japan Interest Rate = 0.112375 / 0.75

Japan Interest Rate = 0.15%  

Which of the following statements generates the greatest amount of disagreement among economists? a. Increases in the money supply shift aggregate demand to the right. b. In the long run, increases in the money supply increase prices, but not output. c. Recessions are associated with decreases in consumption, investment, and employment. d. Government should use fiscal policy to try to stabilize the economy.

Answers

Answer:

d. Government should use fiscal policy to try to stabilize the economy.

Explanation:

Suggesting that the government should use fiscal policy to try to stabilize the economy generates the greatest amount of disagreement among economists because the process of implementing fiscal policy usually experiences lag as it is being slowed down by the political system (bureaucracy) of checks and balances.

Fiscal policy is the use of government expenditures, revenues and tax policies to influence macroeconomic conditions such as employment, inflation and Aggregate Demand (ADl in a specific country.

The benefits of fiscal policy is that investments, savings and growth is usually influenced in the long-run while it basically influences aggregate demand for goods and services in the short-run.

Answers

Answer:

D. $246,000

Explanation:

As per the given question the solution of direct material cost assigned to good units​ completed is provided below:-

To reach Cost transferred out we need to follow some steps which is following below:-

Step 1. Cost per unit = cost of material used ÷ Units started

= $300,000 ÷ 12,500

= $24

Now,

Step 2. Goods units completed = Started units × Cost per unit

= 6,250 × $24

= $150,000

Step 3. Normal spoilage = Cards units × Cost per unit

= 4,000 × $24

= $96,000

and finally

Cost transferred out = Goods units completed + Normal spoilage

= $150,000 + $96,000

= $246,000

To reach allocation of Cost transferred out we simply put the values into formula.

Smart Stream Inc. uses the total cost method of applying the cost-plus approach to product pricing. The costs of producing and selling 10,000 units of cell phones are as follows: Variable costs per unit: Fixed costs: Direct materials $150 Factory overhead $350,000 Direct labor 25 Selling and administrative expenses 140,000 Factory overhead 40 Selling and administrative expenses 25 Total variable cost per unit $240 Smart Stream desires a profit equal to a 30% return on invested assets of $1,200,000.
a. Determine the variable costs and the variable cost amount per unit for the production and sale of 10,000 cellular phones. Total variable cost $ Variable cost amount per unit $
b. Determine the variable cost markup percentage for cellular phones. Round to two decimal places.
c. Determine the selling price of cellular phones. If required, round to the nearest dollar.

Answers

Answer:

(a). Total variable Cost = $2,890,000

Total variable Cost Per Unit  = $289  

(b). Variable Cost Markup Percentage = 12.46%

(c). Selling Price Per Unit = $325

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-

a). Total Fixed Cost = Selling and Administrative Expenses + Factory Overhead

= $140,000 + $350,000 = $490,000

Fixed Cost Per Unit = Total Fixed Cost ÷ Cost of Produced and Selling Units

= $490,000 ÷ 10,000 = $49

Total variable Cost Per Unit = Fixed Cost Per Unit + Variable Cost Per Unit

= $49 + $240 = $289

Total variable Cost = Cost of Produced and Selling Units × Total Cost Per Unit

= 10,000 × $289 = $2,890,000

b). Desired Profit = Invested Assets × 30%

= $1,200,000 × 30÷100 = $360,000

Variable Cost Markup Percentage = Desired Profit ÷ Total Cost

=$360,000 ÷ $2,890,000 = 0.1246 = 12.46%

c). Selling Price Per Unit = (1 + Variable Cost Markup Percentage) × Total Cost Per Unit

= (1 + 12.46%) × $289

= 1.1246 × $289

= $325

Your bagel shop uses both capital and labor in the production of bagels. In this production process capital and labor are substitutes. If you install a new oven and the marginal product of capital increases, you will:

a. reduce the number of workers you employ
b. increase the number of workers you employ
c. reduce the amount of capital you are using not make any changes since you are already maximizing profit

Answers

Answer:

The answer is option A) reduce the number of workers you employ

Explanation:

Installing a new oven is capital intensive. So, for a business person to incur an additional capital cost to aid the efficiency of production, something has to give.

In this case, where capital and labor are substitutes, installing a new oven will drastically reduce the workload thereby necessitating a reduction in the number of workers.

By implication, the cost of paying wages which is a recurrent expenditure will reduce. In the long run and if the oven is maintained, it will e a very cost effective option.

Installing a new oven also suggests a marginal increment in capital.

(Ignore income taxes in this problem.) Assume you can invest money at a 14 percent rate of return. How much money must be invested now to be able to withdraw $5,000 from this investment at the end of each year for eight years, the first withdrawal occurring one year from now

Answers

Answer:

the original amount invested = $285,714.29

Explanation:

Let original amount invested be x

Amount to be withdrawn per year = $5,000

Total number of years = 8

Total amount to be withdrawn = 5,000 × 8 = $40,000

Next, we are told that 14% return on x is realized,

∴ 14% return on x = $40,000

0.14 × x = 40,000

x = 40,000 ÷ 0.14 = $285,714.29

Therefore, the original amount invested = $285,714.29

By the end of the first year, the company has mined and sold 61,000 tons of copper. What is the cost attributed to copper inventory for 2021, assuming the company uses the units-of-production method?

Answers

Answer:

$138,470

Explanation:

cost of mine = $2,640,000

residual value of the land = $1,408,000

cost of equipment = $570,000

residual value = $54,100

it should contain 770,000 tons of copper

units of production depreciation method:

depreciation of mine = ($2,640,000 - $1,408,000) / 770,000 tons of copper = $1.60 per ton of copperdepreciation of equipment = ($570,000 - $54,100) / 770,000 tons of copper = $0.67 per ton of coppertotal depreciation per ton of copper = $1.60 + $0.67 = $2.27

since 61,000 tons were extracted, then the depreciation expense = 61,000 x $2.27 = $138,470

The manufacturing overhead budget at Cutchin Corporation is based on budgeted direct labor-hours. The direct labor budget indicates that 2,800 direct labor-hours will be required in September. The variable overhead rate is $7.00 per direct labor-hour. The company’s budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead is $43,120 per month, which includes depreciation of $3,640. All other fixed manufacturing overhead costs represent current cash flows. The September cash disbursements for manufacturing overhead on the manufacturing overhead budget should be:

Answers

Answer:

$59,080

Explanation:

The calculation of September cash disbursements is shown below:-

September cash disbursement = Company's budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead - Depreciation + Variable manufacturing overhead

= $43,120 - $3,640 + $7.00 × 2,800

= $43,120 - $3,640 + $19,600

= $62,720 - $3,640

= $59,080

Therefore for computing the September cash disbursement we simply applied the above formula.

Hancock Medical Supply Co., earned $90,500 of revenue on account during Year 1, its first year of operation. During Year 1, Hancock collected $71,400 of cash from its receivables accounts. The company did not write-off any uncollectible accounts. It estimates that it will be unable to collect 1% of revenue on account. What is the net realizable value of receivables that will be reported on the balance sheet at December 31, Year 1

Answers

Answer:

$18,195

Explanation:

The computation of the net realizable value is shown below:

As we know that

Net Realizable Value of Receivables =  Ending Accounts Receivable - Estimated Uncollectibles  amount

where,

Ending balance of Accounts Receivable is

= Revenue on Account - Accounts collected

= $90,500 - $71,400

= $191,00

And,

Estimated Uncollectibles i.e  Bad debt Expense is

= Revenue on Account × given percentage

= $90,500 × 1%

= $905

So, the net realizable value is

= $19,100 - $905

= $18,195

We simply applied the above formula

In performing accounting services for small businesses, you encounter the following situations per taining to cash sales. 1. Poole Company enters sales and sales taxes separately in its cash register. On April 10, the register totals are sales $30,000 and sales taxes $1,500. 2. Waterman Company does not segregate sales and sales taxes. Its register total for April 15 is $25,680, which includes a 7% sales tax. Prepare the entry to record the sales transactions and related taxes for each client.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

According to the scenario, journal entries of the given data are as follow:-

1.Journal Entry of Poole Company

April  10

Cash A/c  Dr.  $31,500

 To Sales A/c $30,000

               To Sales tax payable A/c $1,500

(Being the sales and sales tax payable is recorded)

2. Since Register total for April $25,680 includes 7% sales tax.

So Sales of Waterman Company

= Registered Total Amount ÷ (1 + Sales Tax Rate)

= $25,680 ÷ (1 + 7%)

= $25,680 ÷ 1.07

= $24,000

Now

Sales tax = $24,000 × 7% = $1,680

Journal Entry of Waterman Company

On 15 April  

Cash A/c     Dr.  $25,680

 To Sales A/c   $24,000

               To Sales tax payable A/c $1,680

(Being the sales and sales tax payable is recorded)

Harry and Meghan have considered starting their own business but are concerned about the possibility of losing even their personal assets if the business fails. One way for BOTH Harry and Meghan to avoid this liability risk would be to :

A.
divorce as soon as possible and establish two sole proprietorships

B.
Organize a limited partnership with Harry as the general partner

C.
set up offshore accounts

D.
form a corporation

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is D,form a corporation

Explanation:

The rationale for my choice of answer is that limited liability applies to a corporation which is found in other types of businesses.

Limited liability is a concept which implies that the liability of shareholders in a limited liability company is limited to the amount contributed to the business by a way of shares held in the company.

When a company runs into debt,the shareholders would not be required to make up such debts from their private pockets,hence Harry and Meghan personal effects are secure.

The way for Harry and Meghan to avoid liability risk is to form a corporation

Typically, a limited liability applies to a corporation which means that the owner liability is limited to the amount he owns in the business.

Limited liability implies that liability of shareholders is limited to the amount contributed to the business by a way of shares held in the company.

So, when company runs into debt, the shareholders would not be required to make up such debts from their private pockets,therefore, the investment of Harry and Meghan are secure.

Hence, the only way for Harry and Meghan to avoid liability risk is to form a corporation

Therefore, the Option D is correct.

A company used straight-line depreciation for an item of equipment that cost $15,350, had a salvage value of $3,200 and a six-year useful life. After depreciating the asset for three complete years, the salvage value was reduced to $1,535 but its total useful life remained the same. Determine the amount of depreciation to be charged against the equipment during each of the remaining years of its useful life: Multiple Choice $2,880. $5,672. $1,215. $2,580. $3,200.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is $2,580.

Explanation:

Under straight-line method, depreciation expense is (cost - residual value) / No of years = ($15,350 - $3,200) / 6 years = $2,025 yearly depreciation expense.

Accumulated depreciation at Year 3 = $2,025 x 3 = $6,075

Net book value (NBV) becomes $15,350 - $6,075 = $9,275

New depreciation is ($9,275 - $1,535) / 3 years = $2,580 yearly depreciation expenses
