You work for a marketing firm that has just landed a contract with Run-of-the-Mills to help them promote three of their products: splishy splashies, frizzles, and cannies. All of these products have been on the market for some time, but, to entice better sales, Run-of-the-Mills wants to try a new advertisement that will market two of the products that consumers will likely consume together. As a former economics student, you know that complements are typically consumed together while substitutes can take the place of other goods.

Run-of-the-Mills provides your marketing firm with the following data: When the price of splishy splashies decreases by 5%, the quantity of frizzles sold increases by 4% and the quantity of cannies sold decreases by 5%. Your job is to use the cross-price elasticity between splishy splashies and the other goods to determine which goods your marketing firm should advertise together.

Complete the first column of the following table by computing the cross-price elasticity between splishy splashies and flopsicles, and then between splishy splashies and kipples. In the second column, determine if splishy splashies are a complement to or a substitute for each of the goods listed. Finally, complete the final column by indicating which good you should recommend marketing with splishy splashies.

Relative to Splishy Splashies
Cross-Price Elasticity of Demand Complement or Substitute Recommend Marketing with Splishy Splashies

Flopsicles
Kipples

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

cross-price elasticity formula = % change in quantity demanded of good X / % change in price of good Y

cross-price elasticity of demand between splishy splashies and frizzles (or is it flopsicles?) = 4% / -5% = -0.8, complement goods. When the cross price elasticity is negative, then the goods complement each other.

cross-price elasticity of demand between splishy splashies and cannies (or is it kippies?) = -5% / -5% = 1, substitute goods. When the cross price elasticity is positive, then the goods substitute each other.

If you are about to launch a marketing campaign for splishy splashies, then you should include frizzles in it.

Assume Merck (MRK) just announced that its next dividend will be $2, paid one year from now (you just missed the prior annual dividend). You expect the dividend will grow (after the $2 dividend) by 3% per year forever. Your required return is 10%. What are you willing to pay for a share of Merck stock

Answers

Answer:

$28.57

Explanation:

Current price = D1/(Required return-Growth rate)

D1 (Next dividend) = $2

Required return = 10% = 0.1

Growth rate = 3% = 0.03

Current price = $2/(0.1-0.03)

Current price = $2 / 0.07

Current price = $28.57143

Current price = $28.57

Hence, i will be willing to pay $28.57 for a share of Merck stock.

O A. ensures that risks are appropriately prioritized
B. performs background checks on new employees
C. Includes compliance and ethics questions in exit interviews
D. promotes a culture of compliance and ethics throughout the organization​

Answers

D.  Promotes a culture of compliance and ethics throughout the organization

Explanation:

Every negative actions that conducted by a member of company will expose the company to the risk of lawsuits.

To prevent this from happening, the company often hire compliance and ethics professional to ensure that the employees are following a set of procedures that prevent them from violating the social norms.

The Pritzker Music Pavilion in downtown Chicago is a technologically sophisticated and uniquely designed performing arts venue that hosts live concerts attended by over half a million patrons a year. A group of local organizers, led by a prominent local businesswoman, would like to use the pavilion for a concert to benefit a non-profit, national network of investors and environmental organizations working with companies and investors to address sustainability challenges such as global climate change. If the pavilion management agrees to host the concert, the organizers will donate all profits to Ceres (or absorb any losses).

Based on the following revenue and cost information, the organizers would like answers to several questions.

1. There are three sources of revenue for the concert:
2. Tickets will be sold for $15.50 each.
3. A large multinational corporation headquartered in Chicago will donate $2.00 per ticket sold.
4. Each concert attendee is expected to spend an average of $17.00 for parking, food, and merchandise.
5. On the expense side, there are also three components:

A popular national group has agreed to perform at the concert. Normally, the group demands a significant fixed fee to perform, but to reduce the risk for the organizers, the group has agreed to perform for $6.00 per ticket sold. The organizers will pay several companies to operate the parking, food, and merchandise concessions. They will pay $21,000 plus 15% of all parking, food, and merchandise revenue. The organizers will pay the pavilion $85,000 plus $7.00 per person attending to cover its operating expenses (production, maintenance, advertising, etc.)

Required:
a. What is the estimated contribution margin per ticket sold for the benefit concert?
b. What are the estimated total fixed costs for the benefit concert?
c. What is the estimated profit from the benefit concert if 10,500 tickets are sold?
d. How many tickets must be sold in order for concert profit to be $100,000?
e. Assuming a tax rate of 31% on profits from the concert, what must dollar ticket sales be in order for after-tax concert profits to be $100,000?
f. Assume that the organizers can negotiate the fixed payment for the pavilion's operating expenses. If the organizers expect to sell 10,500 tickets, how much can they afford to pay and still earn a profit of $100,000 (ignore taxes)?

Answers

Answer:

a. What is the estimated contribution margin per ticket sold for the benefit concert?

contribution margin per ticket = ($15.50 + $2 + $17) - ($6 + $2.55 + $7) = $34.50 - $15.55 = $18.95

b. What are the estimated total fixed costs for the benefit concert?

total fixed costs = $21,000 + $85,000 = $106,000

c. What is the estimated profit from the benefit concert if 10,500 tickets are sold?

estimated profit = (10,500 x $18.95) - $106,000 = $92,975

d. How many tickets must be sold in order for concert profit to be $100,000?

number of tickets sold = ($106,000 + $100,000) / $18.95 = 10,870.71 ≈ 10,871 tickets sold

e. Assuming a tax rate of 31% on profits from the concert, what must dollar ticket sales be in order for after-tax concert profits to be $100,000?

$100,000 / (1 - 31%) = $144,927.54

number of tickets sold = ($106,000 + $144,927.54) / $18.95 = 13,241.56 ≈ 13,241.56 tickets sold

f. Assume that the organizers can negotiate the fixed payment for the pavilion's operating expenses. If the organizers expect to sell 10,500 tickets, how much can they afford to pay and still earn a profit of $100,000 (ignore taxes)?

contribution margin increases to $18.95 + $7 = $25.95

10,500 = ($21,000 + $100,000 + ?) / $25.95

$272,475 = $121,000 + ?

? = $151,475

you can pay up to $151,475 in fixed expenses to the pavilion

rise.


remain constant.


fall.


All of the above

Answers

Answer:

Fall.

Explanation:

Since government spending is one of the components of aggregate demand, an increase in government spending will shift the demand curve to the right. A reduction in taxes will leave more disposable income and cause consumption and savings to increase, also shifting the aggregate demand curve to the right.

Assume that Ray is 38 years old and has 27 years for saving until he retires. He expects an APR of 7.5% on his investments. How much does he need to save if he puts money away annually in equal end-of-the-year amounts to achieve a future value of $1,200,000 dollars in 27 years' time

Answers

Answer:

Annual deposit= $14,882.44

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Future Value= $1,200,000

Number of periods= 27 years

Interest rate= 7.5%

To calculate the annual deposit, we need to use the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual deposit

Isolating A:

A= (FV*i)/{[(1+i)^n]-1}

A= (1,200,000*0.075) / [(1.075^27) - 1]

A= $14,882.44

Required:
a. Compute the variable cost per unit using the high-low method.
b. Compute the fixed cost elements using the high-low method.
c. Estimate the total cost if the company produces 8,170 units.

Answers

Answer & Explanation:

a. Using the high-low method, Variable cost per unit is;

[tex]= \frac{Highest Variable Cost - Lowest Variable Cost}{Highest number of units - Lowest number of Units} \\\\= \frac{17,492 - 14,860}{10,480 - 8,600} \\\\= $1.40[/tex]

= $1.40

b. Fixed Cost

= Total Cost at lowest unit - Variable costs at lowest unit

= 14,860 - (1.4 * 8,600)

= $‭2,820‬

c. Variable cost at 8,170 units + Fixed cost

= (8,170 * 1.4) + 2,820

The rate of return on the common stock of Flowers by Flo is expected to be 14 percent in a boom economy, 8 percent in a normal economy, and only 2 percent in a recessionary economy. The probabilities of these economic states are 20 percent for a boom, 70 percent for a normal economy, and 10 percent for a recession. What is the variance of the returns

Answers

Answer:

the variance is 0.001044

Explanation:

The computation of the variance of the returns is shown below:

But before that expected return to be determined

E(r) = Sum of (probabilities × expected return)

 = 0.20 × .14 + 0.70 × 0.08 + 0.10 × 0.02

= 0.086

Now

variance = Sum of (individual return - mean return)^2

= 0.20 × (0.14  -0.086)^2  + 0.7 × (0.08 - 0.086)^2 + 0.10 × (0.02 - 0.086)^2

= 0.001044

hence the variance is 0.001044

The price of oil in international markets has dropped stunningly 60% in the past twelve months. Among the factors mentioned behind this drastic fall is the millions of barrels of oil produced in the US called shale oil and analyze:

a. The market struc ture for oil industry.
b. The supply and demand for oil in that market structure.
c. The pricing of oil at the presence of OPEC and the role of Speculators.
d. Why shale oil is a substitute for oil and explain the news in regard to the Cross elasticity of demand.

Answers

Answer:

a. The market structure for oil industry.

The market structure is monopolistic competition: there are many competitors, that hold some market power, but not as much as in oligopoly. The good that is offered is not as homogenous as in agricultural markets, and this is the reason why it is not a perfect-competition structure either.

b. The supply and demand for oil in that market structure.

Supply and demand is determined more or less freely in the market. Producers hold some market power so they charge a price that is a bit higher than the marginal cost, which would be the price in a perfect competition structure.

Consumers also have power in the demand curve because they have a fair number of options.

c. The pricing of oil at the presence of OPEC and the role of Speculators.

The OPEC forms an oligopoly, however, not all countries that produce oil are members of the OPEC, and this is why the market structure as a whole is not an oligopoly, but monopolistic competition.

Speculators can drive prices, but their influence is marginal in comparison to consumers as a whole.

d. Why shale oil is a substitute for oil and explain the news in regard to the Cross elasticity of demand.

Shale oil is a substitute because it offers the same service: providing energy, and serving as a chemical component of many products.

As for the cross elasticity of demand, this means that when the price of oil increases, the demand for shale oil increases, because people flock to the substitute.

A company is about to begin production of a new product. The manager of the department that will produce one of the components for the new product wants to know how often the machine used to produce the item will be available for other work. The machine will produce the item at a rate of 200 units a day. Eighty units will be used daily in assembling the final product. Assembly will take place five days a week, 50 weeks a year. The manager estimates that it will take a full day to get the machine ready for a production run, at a cost of $250. Inventory holding costs will be $10 a year.

Required:
a. What run quantity should be used to minimize total annual costs?
b. What is the length of a production run in days?
c. During production, at what rate will inventory build-up?
d. lf the manager wants to run another job between runs of this item, and needs a minimum of 10 days per cycle for the other work, will there be enough time?
e. Given your answer to part d, the manager wants to explore options that will allow this other job to be performed using this equipment. Name three options the manager can consider.
f. Suppose the manager decides to increase the run size of the new product. How many additional units would be needed to just accommodate the other job? How much will that increase the total annual cost?

Answers

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Explanation:

Given that :

Production rate (p) = 200 units / day

daily usage (d) = 80 units / day

Assembly, a = 5 days a week ; 50 weeks a year

Setup cost (S) = $250

Holding cost (H )= $10

A) Run quantity to minimize total annual cost:

√(2DS/H) * √p / (p - d)

D = annual demand = (80 * 5 * 50) = 20,000

√(2(20000)(250)/10) * √200 / (200 - 80)

1000 * 1.2909944

= 1290.99

= 1291 units

B) Run length :

1291 / 200 = 6.455 days

C) Inventory build up:

Daily production - daily usage:

(200 - 80) = 120 units / day

The data required to answer the question are

production rate = 200/dayusage = 80 per dayAssembly = 5 per week and 50 weeks per yearCost of set up = 250 dollarsHolding cost = 10 dollars

A. To minimize the total annual cost

[tex]\sqrt{2ds/h} *\sqrt{p/(p-d)}[/tex]

annual demand = 80 x 5 x 50 = 20,000

sqrt(2x20000)x(250)/10) * sqrt200/(200-80)

1000 x 1.2909944

= 1290.99

The total units when approximated = 1291 units

B) The length of a production in days =

1291 / 200 = 6.455 days

C) What is the Inventory build up?

200 - 80 = 120 units per day

d. If the manager wants to run a cycle that needs 10 days per cycle there is going to be enough time for him to do so.

e. Other options that he has to explore are labor, capital and time factor.

d. Increasing the run size is going to increase the total annual cost by the amount

Which of the following is LEAST likely to be a cause of long-term secular slowness in increases in U.S. labor productivity? (a) transition of the economy increasingly toward services and away from manufacturing; (b) falling levels of the capital to labor ratio; (c) deglobalization and the shift of production from places outside the U.S. to places within the U.S.; (d) tighter labor markets and the infusion of more and more workers with below-average skills.

Answers

Answer:

(c) deglobalization and the shift of production from places outside the U.S. to places within the U.S.

Explanation:

The secular aspect of a trend is the main driver of that trend, and the secular aspect of the slowness in increases in U.S. labor productivity is not deglobalization and the shift of production from outside the U.S. to inside the U.S., since what has been happening in the latest decades is exactly the opposite.

Globalization has led many U.S. jobs, specially in manufacturing, to be shipped away from the country to other places where labor costs are cheaper, like China, Vietnam and Malasya.

In both the United States and France, the demand for haircuts is given by QD=300−10P . However, in the United States, the supply is given by QS=−300+20P , while in France, the supply is given by QS=−33.33+6.67P .

Required:
a. What are the equilibrium prices and quantities of haircuts in the two countries?
b. What are the new equilibrium prices and quantities of haircuts in the two countries?

Answers

Answer:

a. P = 20 and Q = 100 in the United States; and also P = 20 and Q = 100 in France.

b. P = 23.33 and Q = 166.70 in the United States; and P = 26 and Q = 140 in France.

Explanation:

Note: The part b of the requirement is not complete. The entire question is therefore represented with the complete pat b before answering the question as follows:

In both the United States and France, the demand for haircuts is given by QD=300−10P . However, in the United States, the supply is given by QS=−300+20P , while in France, the supply is given by QS=−33.33+6.67P .

Required:

a. What are the equilibrium prices and quantities of haircuts in the two countries?

b. Suppose that the demand for haircuts in both countries increases by 100 units at each price, so that the new demand is QD = 400 - 10P. What are the new equilibrium prices and quantities of haircuts in the two countries?

The explanation to the answers is now provided as follows:

a. What are the equilibrium prices and quantities of haircuts in the two countries?

In economics, an equilibrium occurs at point where the quantities demanded is equal to the quantities supplied.

Let Q denotes equilibrium quantity and P denotes equilibrium price, the equilibrium prices and quantities of haircuts in the two countries can therefore be calculated as follows:

In the United States

QD =300 − 10P

QS= −300 + 20P

Since at equilibrium, QD = QS, we can therefore solve for P by equating the two equations above as follows:

300 - 10P = −300 + 20P

300 + 300 = 20P + 10P

600 = 30P

P = 600 / 30

P = 20

To obtain equilibrium quantity, we substitute P = 20 into any QD and QS since at equilibrium QD = QS. Using QD, we have:

Q = 300 – 10(20)

Q = 300 – 200

Q = 100

Therefore, P = 20 and Q = 100 in the United States.

In France

QD = 300 − 10P

QS= −33.33 + 6.67P

Since at equilibrium, QD = QS, we can therefore solve for P by equating the two equations above as follows:

300 - 10P = −33.33 + 6.67P

300 + 33.33 = 6.67P + 10P

333.33 = 16.67P

P = 333.33 / 16.67

P = 20

To obtain equilibrium quantity, we substitute P = 20 into any QD and QS since at equilibrium QD = QS. Using QD, we have:

Q = 300 – 10(20)

Q = 300 – 200

Q = 100

Therefore, P = 20 and Q = 100 also in France.

b. Suppose that the demand for haircuts in both countries increases by 100 units at each price, so that the new demand is QD = 400 - 10P. What are the new equilibrium prices and quantities of haircuts in the two countries?

In the United States

QD = 400 − 10P

QS= −300 + 20P

Since at equilibrium, QD = QS, we can therefore solve for P by equating the two equations above as follows:

400 - 10P = −300 + 20P

400 + 300 = 20P + 10P

700 = 30P

P = 700 / 30

P = 23.33

To obtain equilibrium quantity, we substitute P = 20 into any QD and QS since at equilibrium QD = QS. Using QD, we have:

Q = 400 – 10(23.33)

Q = 400 – 233.30

Q = 166.70

Therefore, P = 23.33 and Q = 166.70 in the United States.

In France

QD = 400 − 10P

QS= −33.33 + 6.67P

Since at equilibrium, QD = QS, we can therefore solve for P by equating the two equations above as follows:

400 - 10P = −33.33 + 6.67P

400 + 33.33 = 6.67P + 10P

433.33 = 16.67P

P = 433.33 / 16.67

P = 25.99 = 26

To obtain equilibrium quantity, we substitute P = 20 into any QD and QS since at equilibrium QD = QS. Using QD, we have:

Q = 400 – 10(26)

Q = 400 – 260

Q = 140

Therefore, P = 26 and Q = 140 in France.

2. Accounts payable confirmation can be mailed to vendors from whom substantial purchases have been made.

As a way to keep a document trail, creditors from whom substantial goods were bought from can be mailed a confirmation.

3. To gain overall assurance as to the reasonableness of accounts payable, the auditor may consider ratios.

Ratios such as the Payables turnover can be used to evaluate the reasonableness of Accounts payable.

4. When auditors find unrecorded liabilities, before adjusting they must consider materiality.

They must consider if the adjustment is material or significant enough to record.

5 Auditiors need to consider shipping terms terms for determining ownership and whether a liability should be recorded.

Shipping terms need to be considered because they can tell who owns goods in transit and therefore if a liability is needed for them. Shipping terms such as FOB Shipping point mean that the business incurs the liability as soon as the seller ships the goods.
