Imagine that to preserve the traditional way of life in small fishing villages, a government decides to impose a price floor that will guarantee all fishermen a certain price for their catch.

Using the demand and supply framework, predict the effects on the price, quantity demanded, and quantity supplied.


With the enactment of this price floor for fish, what are some of the likely unintended consequences in the market?


Suggest some policies other than the price floor to make it possible for small fishing villages to continue.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

As a result of the price floor, price would increase. As a result, quantity demanded will decrease and the quantity supplied would increase.

Supply would exceed demand and as a result there would be an excess supply of fish.  

As an alternative to the price floor, the government can subsidise the cost of fishing. This would reduce the cost of producing fish

Explanation:

A price floor is when the government or an agency of the government sets the minimum price of a product. A price floor is binding if it is set above equilibrium price.

You are thinking of opening a Broadway play, I Love You, You’re Mediocre, Now Get Better! It will cost $5 million to develop the show. There are 8 shows per week, and you project the show will run for 100 weeks. It costs $1000 to open the theater each night. Tickets sell for $50.00, and you earn an average of $1.50 profit per ticket holder from concessions. The theater holds 800, and you expect 80% of the seats to be full. a. Given your other assumptions, how many weeks will the play have to run for you to earn a 100%

Answers

Answer:

39 weeks

Explanation:

initial investment = $5 million

Your goal is to a better person and get rich by doubling your development costs. You want to earn $10 million in profits, so you will need to sell a lot of seats.

8 shows per week x 100 weeks = 800 shows

revenue per ticket = $50 + $1.50 = $51.50

tickets sold per show = 800 x 80% = 640

total revenue per show = 640 x $51.50 = $32,960

variable cost per show (assuming 7 nights per week) = $7,000 / 8 = $875

contribution margin per show = $32,960 - $875 = $32,085

number of shows needed to earn $10 million in profits = $10,000,000 / $32,085 = 311.67 shows

number of weeks = 311.67 / 8 = 38.96 ≈ 39 weeks

ACE Co. stock is not paying a dividend today, but has announced it will start paying a dividend in year 4 of $2.00 per share, and that will increase 5% per year forever. What is an estimate of the price of the stock today if r

Answers

Answer:

$77.22

Explanation:

the question is incomplete, so I looked for a similar question and found that Re = 9%

Div₀ = 0

Div₁ = 0

Div₂ = 0

Div₃ = 0

Div₄ = $2

the terminal value at year 3 = Div₄ / (Re - g) = $4 / (9% - 5%) = $100

in order to determine the current stock price we must discount $100 by 9% for 3 periods = $100 / 1.09³ = $77.22

Correspondence Cost = Number of letters * Predetermined cost of correspondence  

Predetermined cost of correspondence = Allocated cost/ Allocated base

= 14,000/1,600 letters

= $438

Doreen has preferences represented by the utility function U(x, y) = 10x + 5y. She consumes 10 units of good x and 9 units of good y. If her consumption of good x is lowered to 1, how many units of y must she have in order to be exactly as well off as before?

Answers

Answer:

she must consume 11 units of good Y

Explanation:

Doreen's current utility = (10 x 10) + (5 x 9) = 145 utils

if she consumes only 9 goods of X, her utility will be:

90 + 5Y

the amount of good Y that makes both equations equal is:

90 + 5Y = 145

5Y = 55

Y = 55 / 5 = 11 units

Bob has been investing $4,000 in stock at the end of every year for the past 8 years. If the account is currently worth $45,000, what was his annual return on this investment?a. 10.61%b. 10.91%c. 8.81%d. 9.55%e. 9.07%

Answers

Answer:

d. 9.55%

Explanation:

we can use the future value of an annuity formula to calculate Bob's annual return:

future value = annual contribution x FV annuity factor

future value = $45,000

annual contribution = $4,000

FV annuity factor = ?

FV annuity factor = future value / annual contribution = $45,000 / $4,000 = 11.25

FV annuity factor = [(1 + i)ⁿ - 1] / i

11.25 = [(1 + i)⁸ - 1] / i

11.25i = (1 + i)⁸ - 1

solving this problem is really complicated, but there is a much simple way to do it:

e) 11.25 x 0.0907 = (1 + 0.0907)⁸ - 1

1.020375 ≠ 1.0028

d) 11.25 x 0.0955 = (1 + 0.0955)⁸ - 1

1.0744 = 1.0744 ⇒ this option is correct

A semiannual coupon bond with face value of $1,000 has a coupon rate of 6% and matures in 16 years. The market-determined discount rate on this bond is 14%. What is the price of the bond?

Answers

Answer:

$1,125.30

Explanation:

The Price of the Bond is its Current/Trading price also known as the Present Value (PV). This is determined as follows :

Fv = $1,000

Pmt = $1,000 ×  6% = $160

P/yr = 1

n = 16

i = 14%

PV = ?

Using the Financial calculator to enter the values as above, the Pv is $1,125.30.

Thus, the price of the bond is $1,125.30.

Suppose you won a $77,000 after-tax cash prize in the lottery. You want to start a new business that you think will lose money for a while, after which it will be up and running and bringing in big bucks. You plan to invest the funds immediately in securities that are expected to earn 8% per year. Suppose you would need only $19,000 per year during the start-up period. How long could you operate before you would require cash from the new business, i.e., how long could you receive payments of $19,000 per year? The first withdrawal will be made a year from today, and your answer will contain a fraction of a year.

Answers

Answer:

The right solution is "5.09 years".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Lottery amount

= $77,000

Withdrawal

= $19,000

Rate

= 8%

The number of withdrawal will be:

⇒ [tex]NPER(Rate,-withdrawal,lottery \ amount)[/tex]

On putting the values, we get

⇒ [tex]NPER(8 \ percent,-19000,77000)[/tex]

They mature exactly 10 years from today. The yield to maturity is 12%, so the bonds now sell below par. What is the current market value of the firm's debt

Answers

Answer:

$5,412,000

Explanation:

The semi annual interest = $20

Periods (n) till maturity are 10*2 = 20

Discounting rate is 12%/2 = 6%

Principal amount is $1,000

Market Value = 20 * PVIFA (20,6%) + 1,000 * PVIF (20,6%)

Market Value = 20 * 11.4699 + 1,000 * 0.3118

Market Value = 229.398 + 311.8

Market Value = 541.198

Market value = $541.20

Number of bonds = 10,000,000/1,000

Number of bonds = 10,000

Current market value = Number of bonds * Market value

Current market value = 10,000 * 541.20

Current market value = $5,412,000

Which of the following statements is the most accurate? Sole proprietorships are well suited for people who want to own a business and share in its profits without taking an active role in management. Sole proprietorships are the least risky form of business ownership. Sole proprietorships must receive a state charter before they can legally conduct business. Sole proprietorships are taxed at the owner's personal tax rate.

Answers

Answer:

D. Sole proprietorships are taxed at the owner's personal tax rate

Explanation:

Sole Proprietorship can be defined as a simplest form of owning and starting any business. As the term suggests, this business is onwed by an individual only or shared by married couples.

Sole properietorship is easy to set up because the owner need not to register itself to state government, therefore, because of absence of governmental involvement, it is easy to set up or deconstruct sole proprietorship.

From the given options, the statement which is most accurate about a sole proprietorship is option D. The owner of sole proprietorship pays personal taxes on the profits earned by his/her business.

Therefore, option D is correct.

Answers

Answer:

the creation of different meanings based on social and cultural context.

Explanation:

In our daily interactions with others, we tend to come across people whose values are different from ours. The difference can be attributed to different cultural and social backgrounds. Culture is a people's way of life. This embraces their beliefs, values, religion.

When people have different values, they tend to see things differently. That can account for the reason why a friend would view an ad as humorous, while another would view it as plain stupid.

Using the FIFO inventory method, the amount allocated to cost of goods sold for June is

Answers

Answer:

COGS= $985.67

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Date Number of Units Purchased

June 1 100 units $360 ($3.6)

June 10 150 units 585 ($3.9)

June 15 150 units 610 ($4.067)

June 28 100 units 520 ($5.2)

A physical count of merchandise inventory on June 30 reveals that there are 240 units on hand.

First, we need to calculate the number of units sold:

Units sold= total units - units in ending inventory

Units sold= 500 - 240= 260

To calculate the cost of goods sold under the FIFO (first-in, first-out) method, we need to use the cost of the firsts units incorporated into inventory.

COGS= 100*3.6 + 150*3.9 + 10*4.067

COGS= $985.67

Which of the following is an example of internally caused behavior? An employee was laid off because the company was attempting to cut costs by laying off employees. An employee was late for a team meeting because of a heavy downpour. An employee could not come to work because he met with an accident. An employee could not attend an interview because of a delayed flight. An employee was fired from work because he violated a company policy.

Answers

Answer:

An employee was fired from work because he violated company policy

Explanation:

One of the factor that determine the behavior of people is the way the event arround them is interpreted. Those that can control things arround them usually take responsibility for what they do compare to set of people believing that situation arround them is beyond their control, which is explained in" attribution theory" by Fritz Heider. Internally caused behavior can be regarded as challenging behavioras a result of internal stimuli such as traits, pain and anxiety.

Out of the options given in the question only "An employee was fired from work because he violated a company policy" is an example of internally caused behavior, since the violation is on the path of the employee which is as a result of internal behavior known to him.

b. 24.0%
c. 66.7%
d. 23.0%

Answers

Answer:

a. 10.3%

Explanation:

PF of Binomial distribution is given as Pr.(x=x) = nCxP^x(1-p)^(n-x)

P = 0.24, n= 55, x =15 Note: C = Combination

Pr.(x = 15) = 55"C"15(0.24)^15(0.76)(55-15)

Pr.(x = 15) = 55"C"15(0.24)^15(0.76)^40

Pr.(x = 15) = 0.1026

Pr.(x = 15) = 10.26%

Pr.(x = 15) = 10.3%

For the following year, SMI expects the following results. Toot! TiX Total Users 17,900 24,100 42,000 Revenues $ 2,200,000 $ 2,400,000 $ 4,600,000 Engineering hours 11,500 9,500 21,000 Engineering cost $ 1,096,250 $ 1,213,750 $ 2,310,000 Administrative costs $ 1,848,000 Required: a. Compute the predetermined overhead rate used to apply administrative costs to the two services assuming SMI uses the number of users to allocate administrative costs. b. Based on the rates computed in requirement (a), what is the profit for each service

Answers

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Toot! TiX Total

Users 17,900 24,100 42,000

Administrative costs $ 1,848,000

We need to allocate administrative costs to each product. First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 1,848,000/42,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate=  $44 per user

Now, we allocate overhead:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Toot!= 44*17,900= 787,600

TiX= 44*24,100= 1,060,400

Finally, the gross profit for each service:

Toot!:

Revenue= 2,200,000

Engineering cost= (1,096,250)

Administrative cost= (787,600)

Profit= $316,150

TiX:

Revenues= 2,400,000

Engineering cost= (1,213,750)

Administrative cost= (1,060,400)

Profit= $125,850

a. $24,477.81
b. $24,948.54
c. $23,536.36
d. $24,007.09

Answers

Answer:

1. a. 4.081%

2. c. $23,536.36

Explanation:

1. Periodic rate=(4.4%/4) = 1.1%

EAR=(1+APR/m)^m-1

where m=compounding periods

= (1+0.044/4)^4-1

= 1.011^4 - 1

= 1.04473133864 - 1

= 0.04473133864

= 4.47%

EAR=(1+APR/m)^m-1

where m=compounding periods

=(1+0.04/365)^365-1

= (1+0.00010958904)^365 - 1

= 1.00010958904^365 - 1

= 1.04080849272 - 1

= 0.04080849272

= 4.081%

2. A=P(1+r/365)^365*n

where  A=future value, P=present value, r=rate of interest, n=time period.

= 22000*(1+9%/365)^(9/12*365)

= $23,536.36

Comparing with unemployment rate with employment rate, which of the following is NOT correct? a. Unemployment rate takes the group of "out of labor force" into account. b. Compared with unemployment rate, employment rate is better because it concerns the hidden unemployment in the out of labor force group. c. Compared with employment rate, unemployment rate in a labor market usually has a larger variation. d. It has limitation because some policy shocks unrelated to unemployment or labor market situation such changes in fertility and school enrollment rates, will affect the number of the employment rate as well.

Answers

Answer:

b. Compared with unemployment rate, employment rate is better because it concerns the hidden unemployment in the out of labor force group.

Explanation:

Remember, the employment rate is used to determine the degree to which the labor force (people willing to work) in a particular economy are able to find work.

Hence, it does not concern itself or takes into account the hidden unemployment in the out of the labor force group, but only those people willing to work are considered.

Answers

Answer:

a. Consumption schedule

The variable on the vertical (y) axis is Consumption and the variable on the horizontal (x) axis is disposable income .

These variables are directly related.

On the Consumption schedule, the variables on the y axis are the different levels of consumption whilst the variables on the x are amounts of disposable income.

Consumption and disposable income are directly related because when the amount of disposable income increases, the amount that consumers can spend will increase as well as it comes from the disposable income that a consumer has.

b. Saving schedule

The variable on the vertical (y) axis is Saving and the variable on the horizontal (x) axis is disposable income .

These variables are directly related.

On the Saving schedule the x axis which is for the independent variable is the Disposable income whilst the dependent variable on the y axis is for Savings.

Savings and Disposable income are directly relate because when a person has more money after taxes (disposable income), they will be able to save more money.

c. Real GDP and disposable income are higher.

The Real GDP of the United States as well as disposable income have increased over the past decade which means that people are able to both consume and save more s shown above.

Lake Sales had $2,200,000 in sales last month. The contribution margin ratio was 30% and operating profits were $180,000. What is Lake's break-even sales volume

Answers

Answer:

$1,600,000

Explanation:

Sales

$2,200,000

Contribution margin ratio

30%

$660,000

Sales $2,200,000

Contribution margin $660,000

Operating profit $180,000

Fixed cost = Contribution margin - Operating profit

= $660,000 - $180,000

= $480,000

Break even sales = Fixed cost / Contribution margin ratio

= $480,000 / 30%

= $1,600,000

Therefore, Lake's break even sales volume is $1,600,000

If the price elasticity of demand for used cars priced between $4,000 and $6,000 is -0.9 (using the mid-point method), what will be the percent change in quantity demanded when the price of a used car falls from $6,000 to $4,000

Answers

Answer: 36% increase in quantity demanded.

Explanation:

Price Elasticity shows the change in quantity demanded when there is a change in price.

Change in Quantity demanded = Price elasticity * Change in price.

Change in price using midpoint formula;

[tex]= \frac{New price - Old Price}{\frac{New Price + Old Price }{2} } \\\\= \frac{4,000 - 6,000}{\frac{4,000 + 6,000 }{2} } \\\\= \frac{-2,000}{5,000} \\\\= -0.4[/tex]

Change in Quantity demanded = -0.9 * -0.4

= 0.36

= 36% increase

When the price of THE used car falls from $6,000 to $4,000, the percent change in quantity demanded  will be 36% increase.

Explanation:

Price Elasticity basically shows the change in quantity demanded when there is a change in price.

The formula for Change in Quantity demanded = Price elasticity * Change in price.

Change in price using midpoint formula = New price - Old price / (New price - Old price / 2)

Change in price using midpoint formula = 4000 - 6000 / (4000 - 6000/ 2)

Change in price using midpoint formula = -0.4

Change in Quantity demanded = -0.9 * -0.4

Change in Quantity demanded = 0.36

Change in Quantity demanded = 36% increase

In conclusion, the percent change in quantity demanded  will be 36% increase.
