Suppose there are only two firms that sell smartphones: Flashfone and Pictech. The following payoff matrix shows the profit (in millions of dollars) each company will earn, depending on whether it sets a high or low price for its phones.
Pictech Pricing Pictech Pricing
High Low
Flashfone Pricing High 11,11 3,15
Flashfone Pricing Low 15,3 9,9
For example, the lower-left cell shows that if Flashfone prices low and Pictech prices high, Flashfone will earn a profit of $15 million, and Pictech will earn a profit of $3 million. Assume this is a simultaneous game and that Flashfone and Pictech are both profit-maximizing firms.
If Flashfone prices high, Pictech will make more profit if it chooses a _____ price, and if Flashfone prices low, Pictech will make more profit if it chooses a _____ price.
If Pictech prices high, Flashfone will make more profit if it chooses a _____ price, and if Pictech prices low, Flashfone will make more profit if it chooses a _____ price.
Considering all of the information given, pricing low _____ a dominant strategy for both Flashfone and Pictech.

(i) Flashfone will choose a low price, and Pictech will choose a high price.
(ii) Both Flashfone and Pictech will choose a high price.
(iii) Flashfone will choose a high price, and Pictech will choose a low price.
(iv) Both Flashfone and Pictech will choose a low price.
The game between Flashfone and Pictech is an example of the prisoners' dilemma
(i) True
(ii) False

Answers

Answer:

A. Low

Low

B. Low

Low

C. Pricing low is a dominant strategy for both firms.

D. (iv) Both Flashfone and Pictech will choose a low price.

E. True

Explanation:

Game theory looks at the interactions between participants in a competitive game and calculates the best choice for the player.

Dominant strategy is the best option for a player regardless of what the other player is playing.

Nash equilibrium is the best outcome for players where no player has an incentive to change their decisions.

If either firm prices high, the best strategy for the other firm is to charge low. This is because the firm that charges low earns a profit of 15 which is the highest amount of profit that can be earned in this case. If the other firm also charges low, it would earn a profit of 9 which is less than 15

If either firm prices low, the best strategy for the other firm is to charge low. Its this strategy that yields the highest profit for the firm in this case. If the other firm a charges high, it would earn a profit of 3 which is less than 9.

If both firms do not collude (they do not agree on the price to sell), the best strategy is to price low because the payoffs of pricing low (15,9) is greater than the payoff of pricing high (3,11).

It is a prisoners dilemma because the nash equilibrium is not the best option for either firms. The best strategy is colluding and keeping the price high. Hence it is a prisoners' dilemma

The truck is expected to have a service life of 10 years or 150,000 miles and a residual value of $3,000. The truck was driven 12,000 miles in 2019 and 20,000 miles in 2020. Bar computes depreciation expense to the nearest whole month. Required: Compute depreciation expense for 2019 and 2020 using the following methods: (Round your answers to the nearest dollar.) Straight-line method 2019 $ 2020 $ Sum-of-the-years'-digits method 2019 $ 2020 $ Double-declining-balance method 2019 $ 2020 $ Activity method 2019 $ 2020 $ For each method, what is the book value of the machine at the end of 2019

Answers

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Purchasing price= $45,000

Useful life= 10 years

Salvage value= $3,000

Activity base= 150,000 miles

The truck was driven 12,000 miles in 2019 and 20,000 miles in 2020.

We need to calculate the depreciation expense for 2019 and 2020.

Straight-line method:

Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)

General= (45,000 - 3,000)/10= $4,200

2019:

Depreciation= (4,200/12)*9= $3,150

Book value= 45,000 - 3,150= 41,850

2020:

Depreciation= $4,200

Book value= $37,650

Double-declining balance:

Annual depreciation= 2*[(book value)/estimated life (years)]

2019:

Depreciaiton= [(2*4,200)/12]*9= $6,300

Book value= 35,700

2020:

Depreciation= 2*[(35,700/10)]= $7,140

Book value= 35,700 - 7,140= $28,560

Activity-based:

Annual depreciation= [(original cost - salvage value)/useful life of production in miles]*miles operated

2019:

Depreciation= [(45,000 - 3,000)/150,000]*12,000= $3,360

Book value= 45,000 - 3,360= $41,460

2020:

Depreciation= 0.28*20,000=$5,600

Book value= 41,460 - 5,600= $35,860

Answers

Answer:

Net operating income= 245,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Total fixed costs $400,000 Expected sales (units) 100,000 Selling price per unit $10.00 Contribution margin per unit $7.50 Tax rate 30%

We need to determine the after tax income:

Contribution margin= 100,000*7.5= 750,000

Fixed costs= (400,000)

EBIT= 350,000

Tax= 350,000*0.3= (105,000)

Net operating income= 245,000

Cr Unearned Compensation 26,100

Explanation:

On January 1 2014 fair value of shares was $78,300, and their par value is $11,400 we have to Debit Unearned Compensation with 78,300 and credit Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par with 66,900 ($78,300-11,400) and Common Stock with 11,400.

On 12 December 2014 the stock will be forfeited if the executives do not complete 3 years of employment with the company which means we have to Debit Compensation Expense with 26,100(78,300/3years) and Credit Unearned Compensation with 26,100.

Answers

Answer:

Option “D” increases (rise) U.S. exports and increases U.S. net exports.

Explanation:

Option “D” is correct because when the United Kingdom hire a firm in the U.S. that means the export of the U.S has increased and import of the United Kingdom has increased. The net export is the amount that comes after subtracting the import from export so an increase in U.S. export will show the increase in U.S  net export.

The following materials standards have been established for a particular product: Standard labor- hour per unit of output 3.3 hours Standard labor rate $16.15 per hour The following data pertain to operations concerning the product for the last month: Actual hours worked 6,300 hours Actual total labor cost $103,635 Actual output 2,000 units What is the labor rate variance for the month

Answers

Answer:

The labor rate variance for the month = $1890

Explanation:

Given values:

Standard labor hour per unit = 3.3 hours

Standard labor rate =  $16.15 per hour

Actual hours worked = 6,300

Actual total labor cost =  $103,635

Actual output = 2,000 units

Now, we calculate the labor rate variance with the help of given information. Below is the calculation of Labor rate variance.

Labor rate variance = ( Actual labor cost) – (Standard rate × Actual hours)

= 103635 – (16.15 × 6,300)

= $1890

Answers

Answer:

The gross margin for December is: 0.5%.

The Gross margin of an organisation or business measure the extent by which its income exceeds the costs it incurs in producing its goods and or services.  

The gross margin is measured in percentages. The higher the percentage of this margin, the higher the effectiveness of the company's management in deriving value from every dollar invested.

Explanation:

To arrive at Gross Margin, one is required to subtract the total cost of goods sold from total revenue for the period and dividing that number by revenue. That is:

Gross Margin (GM) = [tex]\frac{Revenue-Cost of Goods Sold}{Revenue}[/tex]

Step I - Calculate Revenue

This is given as the total amount of goods sold which is:

800 x $500 = $400,000

Step II - Calculate Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of goods sold per unit is given as

$250 per unit.

Total Cost of Goods sold therefore is

800 x $250 = $200,000

Step III - Calculate Gross Margin

= [tex]\frac{400,000-200,000}{400,000}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{200,000}{400,000}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] or 0.5%

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is the option C: changes in M in the short run can cause Real GDP to fall.

Explanation:

To begin with, the monetarist economists are the one that support the idea of not having any intervention from the government regarding the economy and moreover they are the ones whose ideology focus mainly in the money, as it name indicates. Therefore that when the government decides in the short run to increase the amount of the money supply then the monetarists argue that the action done by them will cause the Real GDP to fall because of the high inflation that it will cause the increase of the money supply and consequently low demand, etc.

​AllCity, Inc., is financed 36 % with​ debt, 14 % with preferred​ stock, and 50 % with common stock. Its cost of debt is 5.7 %​, its preferred stock pays an annual dividend of $ 2.45 and is priced at $ 29. It has an equity beta of 1.13. Assume the​ risk-free rate is 2.4 %​, the market risk premium is 7.3 % and​ AllCity's tax rate is 35 %. What is its​ after-tax WACC? g

Answers

Answer:

WACC is 7.84%

Explanation:

First we need to calculate the after-tax cost of debt

Cost of Debt (after Tax) = Pre-tax cost of debt ( 1 - Tax rate )

Cost of Debt (after Tax) = 5.7% x ( 1 - 35% ) = 3.705%

Now calculate the cost of preferred share

Cost of preferred share = Dividend on Preferred share / Market value of preferred share

Cost of preferred share = $2.45 / $29 = 0.0845 = 8.45%

Now calculate the cost f equity

Cost of equity = Rf + Beta x Market risk premium

Cost of equity = 2.4% + 1.13 x 7.3%

Cost of equity = 2.4% + 8.249%

Cost of equity = 10.649%

Now use following formula to calclulate the WACC

WACC = ( Cost of Equity x Weight of common stock ) + ( Cost of Debt x Weight of Debt ) + ( Cost of preferred share x weight of preferred share )

WACC = ( 10.649% x 50% ) + ( 3.705% x 36% ) + ( 8.45% x 14% )

WACC = 5.3245% + 1.3338% + 1.183%

WACC = 7.8413%

Assuming the preferred stock is cumulative and noncumulative, how much of the $22,000 dividend will be paid to preferred stockholders and how much will be paid to common stockholders in 2018? Cumlative Non Cumlativepreferred Dividends for 2018 preferred Dividends in arrears for 2017 Remaining Dividends to common stockholders Total Dividens:

Answers

Answer:

1.

Preferred stock dividends to be paid in 2018 = $20000

Common stock dividends to be paid in 2018 = $2000

2.

Preferred stock dividends to be paid in 2018 = $10000

Common stock dividends to be paid in 2018 =  $12000

Explanation:

The preferred stock dividends are always paid before the common stock dividends.

Cumulative preferred stock is the stock which accumulates or accrues dividends if the dividends are partially paid or not paid at all in a particular year. These dividends are accrued and are required to be paid by the company whenever it declares dividends.

Non cumulative preferred stock does not accrue or accumulates dividends. Thus, if dividends are not paid in a particular year, the company has no obligation to pay these dividends ever in the future.

1.

If the preferred stock is assumed to be cumulative, then the dividends in arrears for 2017 will be paid in 2018 along with dividends for 2018 on preferred stock before paying the common stock holders.

Preferred stock dividend per year = 2000 * 100 * 0.05  

Preferred stock dividend per year = $10000

Preferred stock dividends to be paid in 2018 = 10000 + 10000 = $20000

Common stock dividends to be paid in 2018 = 22000 - 20000 = $2000

2.

If the preferred stock is assumed to be non cumulative, then the dividends in arrears for 2017 will not be paid in 2018. Only the dividends for 2018 on preferred stock will be paid before paying the common stock holders.

Preferred stock dividend per year = 2000 * 100 * 0.05  

Preferred stock dividend per year = $10000

Preferred stock dividends to be paid in 2018 = $10000

Common stock dividends to be paid in 2018 = 22000 - 10000 = $12000

Explanation:

According to britannica.org, division of labour is "the separation of a work process into a number of tasks, with each task performed by a separate person or group of persons. It is most often applied to systems of mass production."

Division of labor facilitates the deployment of machinery and technology to complete simple tasks, thereby reducing costs of production, developing specialized talents, and increasing profits.  It also makes possible the invention of tools and other forms of innovations.  This is because workers who are focused on the same task can learn the tasks in details and develop better solutions from their learning experiences.

Using the 1% rule-of-thumb, a rental property that gererates $1,000 per month in gross rents could potentially be a very good deal if it were listed for a sale price of A. $150,000 B. $185,000 C. $120,000 D. $75,000

Answers

Answer: $75,000

Explanation:

The 1% rule of thumb in real estate is used to evaluate the price of properties. It states that the monthly rent must be 1% or more of the purchase price of the property.

The higher the percentage of the rent over 1% the better.

In the above the best answer would be $75,000 because;

= 1,000/75,000 * 100

= 1.33%

The $1,000 is above 1% of $75,000 and so would be a very good deal.

Assume the following cost of goods sold data for a company: 2018$1417000 20171204000 20161018000 If 2016 is the base year, what is the percentage increase in cost of goods sold from 2016 to 2018

Answers

Answer:

39.19%

Explanation:

2018              $1,417,000

2017              $1,204,000

2016              $1,018,000

if 2016 was the base year, then the % from 2016 to 2018 = ($1,417,000 - $1,018,000) / $1,018,100 = 39.19%

we can also calculate the % increase from 2016 - 2017 and from 2017 - 2018 in a similar manner:

2016 to 2017 increase = ($1,204,000 - $1,018,000) / $1,018,100 = 18.27%

2017 to 2018 increase = ($1,417,000 - $1,204,000) / $1,204,100 = 17.69%
