Billy and Bobby each sells bagels, and each says it has a trade secret for the bagel recipe. Billy accuses Bobby of stealing his trade secret, and files a lawsuit. Bobby proposes that Billy pay him $100,000 per year in exchange for not making any bagels, until their lawsuit can be resolved. Under Case Example 19.3, In re Cardizem CD Antitrust Litigation, this would be a per se violation of the Sherman Act.
a. True
b. False

Answers

Answer:

True

Explanation:

According to the Sherman Antitrust Act of 1890,

It is unlawful in the US to establish a trust, create and operate a monopoly, and or a cartel.

Under the above said Act, contracts, schemes, strategies, practices, and or conspiracies that put a restriction on the way trade ought to be conducted within industries are illegal.

So in the case of Billy Vs Bobby, (if they are the only players in the market) it means that as competitors, they cannot divide the market intentionally amongst themselves via some agreement or the other.

It may not have been the intention of Bobby to create a trust, however, if Billy had agreed, then it would count as such. Because it can then be inferred that both of them have shared the market amongst themselves.

In the case of Cardizem CD Antitrust Litigation, we know that there were only two players. Both agreed to a monopoly.

The defendants HMRI/Andrx had agreed to play the monopoly for 180 days with HMRI agreeing to pay Andrix $89 Million. HMRI was the older player. Adrix was the latest entrant in the market with a bioequivalent alterntive t HMRI's drug.

When the news got to the public, stakeholders were irked. They were suited and the court ruled that their actions violated the Sherman Act and that the agreement be terminated immediately.

Analyzing and Distributing Cash Dividends to Preferred and Common Stocks Potter Company has outstanding 16,000 shares of $60 par value, 5% preferred stock and 60,000 shares of $5 par value common stock. During its first three years in business, it declared and paid no cash dividends in the first year, $260,000 in the second year, and $48,000 in the third year. a. If the preferred stock is cumulative, determine the total amount of cash dividends paid to each class of stock in each of the three years.

Answers

Answer:

Year 1

Preferred Stock Dividend = $ 0

Common Stock Dividend = $0

Year 2

Preferred Stock Dividend =  $96,000

Common Stock Dividend  = $164,000

Year 3

Preferred Stock Dividend = $48,000

Common Stock Dividend = $0

Explanation:

Preferred Stock has preference when it comes to payments of dividends. The remainder of the dividends will then be paid to Common Stock Holders after distributions have been made to Preference Stock Holders.

Then, If preferred stock is cumulative, this means all outstanding preferred stock dividends not paid are not waived, but are paid up in the year that the cash for dividend is available.

Preferred stock dividend is fixed calculated as :

Preferred Stock Dividend = 16,000 share x $60 x 5% = $48,000

thus

Cash dividends paid to each class of stock in each of the three years will be determined as :

Year 1

Preferred Stock Dividend = $ 0 , but $48,000 carried over to next year.

Common Stock Dividend = $0

Year 2

Preferred Stock Dividend = $48,000 (current year) + $48,000 (previous year) = $96,000

Common Stock Dividend = $260,000 - $96,000 = $164,000

Year 3

Preferred Stock Dividend = $48,000

Common Stock Dividend = $0

Regarding the Cost-Plus pricing, which of the following statement is NOT true? It is a pricing strategy liked by the Finance department It supports price differentiation It calculates the price based on the cost plus a standard margin It is an entirely inward-focused strategy that has nothing to do with the market and competition

Answers

Answer: It supports price differentiation

Explanation:

Cost-plus pricing works by adding a standard margin to the cost of producing or acquiring a good. The margin will be the gross profit per unit.

This does not support price differentiation because it would lead to the same price being charged to all customers for the goods regardless of who the customers are, whereas price differentiation calls for different types of customers to be charged different prices.

(a) Land 571000
Preferred Stock 450000
Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par-Preferred 121000
(b) Land 547000
Preferred Stock 450000
Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par-Preferred 97000
(c) Land 450000
Preferred Stock 450000
(d) Land 547000
Preferred Stock 547000

Answers

Answer:

(b) Land 547000

Preferred Stock 450000

Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par-Preferred 97000

Explanation:

The journal entry is shown below;

Land $547,000  

       To Preferred stock  $450,000 (4,500 shares × $100)

       To Paid in capital, in excess of par- preferred  $97,000

(being the preferred stock is issued in exchange of land)

Here the land is debited as it increased the asset and credited the preferred stock & paid in capital as it increased the equity

Therefore the correct option is b.

Answers

Answer:

$204,500

Explanation:

contribution margin = sales - variable cost

                                 = $419,000 - ($175,500 + $23,600 +  $15,400)

                                 = $204,500

The contribution margin for October is: $204,500

Assume that, on January 1, 2021, Matsui Co. paid $2,958,000 for its investment in 87,000 shares of Yankee Inc. Further, assume that Yankee has 290,000 total shares of stock issued. The book value and fair value of Yankee's identifiable net assets were both $580,000 at January 1, 2021. The following information pertains to Yankee during 2021:

Net income $290,000
Dividends declared and paid $87,000
Market price of common stock on 12/31/2021 $36 /share

Required:
What amount would Matsui report in its year-end 2021 balance sheet for its investment in Yankee?

Answers

Answer: $3,018,900

Explanation:

Amount to report is:

= Cost of investment + Share of Net income - Share of dividends

Share of Net income

= Percentage ownership * Net income

= 87,000 shares / 290,000 * 290,000

= $87,000

Share of Dividends

= 87,000 / 290,000 * 87,000

= $26,100

Amount to report:

= 2,958,000 + 87,000 - 26,100

= $3,018,900

why do conduction band electrons posses very high energy's.h​

Answers

Just because of band gap. The forbidden energy gap keeps the conduction band at high energy by an amount to equal to band gap energy from the valence band edge. If you compare energies of electrons present in conduction band and valence band, they significantly differ by an amount equal to band gap energy. The low energy electron presents in a valence band requires an energy equal to band gap energy to excite to conduction band. Consequently, the electrons present in conduction band possess high energy compared to electrons present in valence band. At absolute zero K, the low energy states present in valence band are usually completely occupied where as the high energy states present in the conduction band are unoccupied.

a. How much income from BV must Burgundy report for its tax year ending April 30, 2015?
b. How much income from BV must Violet report for her tax year ending December 31, 2015?

Answers

Answer:

A. $140,000

B. $45,000

Explanation:

a. Calculation to determine How much income from BV must Burgundy report for its tax year ending April 30, 2015

Using this formula

Income from BV=Annual guaranteed payment+(BV's taxable income*50% Distributive share of the partnership)

Let plug in the formula

Income from BV=$100,000+($80,000*50%)

Income from BV=$100,000+$40,000

Income from BV=$140,000

Therefore The Amount of income from BV that Burgundy must report for its tax year ending April 30, 2015 is $140,000.

B. Calculation to determine How much income from BV must Violet report for her tax year ending December 31, 2015

Using this formula

Income from BV=(BV's taxable income*50% Distributive share of the partnership)

Let plug in the formula

Income from BV=($90,000*50%)

Income from BV=$45,000

Therefore The Amount of income from BV that Burgundy must report for its tax year ending December 31, 2015 is $45,000.

A 10-year, 10.00%, $5,000 bond that pays dividends quarterly can be purchased for $4,610.
This means that $4,610 is spent on the bond now. Every quarter, $125.00 is provided to the purchaser as the dividend. After 10 years, $5,000 is given to the purchaser.
If the bond is purchased and pays as scheduled, which of the following ranges of effective rate of return will the purchaser receive?
a. 11.00% - 12.00%
b. 10.00% - 10.50%
c. 12.01% - 14.01%
d. 10.50% - 10.75%

Answers

Answer: a. 11.00% - 12.00%

Explanation:

We can find the rate using Excel.

Payments are quarterly so we need to adjust the variables to quarterly figures:

Period = 10 years * 4 = 40 quarters

Present value = $4,610 (should be a negative number)

Future value = $5,000 at maturity

The effective rate will be 2.9% as shown in the attachment.

This is a quarterly figure so convert it to annual:

= 2.9 * 4

= 11.6%

It is between 11% and 12%

Portfolio A is a well-diversified portfolio that is equally weighted among 5,000 different and diverse stocks. Portfolio A has an average amount of systematic risk, so it has exactly the same amount of systematic risk as the market portfolio Portfolio B consists of 2 stocks that operate in the restaurant industry: 500 shares of Gourmet Restaurant in stock, which has a price of $26 per share and a beta of 0.6; and 1,000 shares of Suppertime Restaurant Inc. stock, which has a price of $22 per share and a beta of 1.4. All stocks have some unsystematic risk and all stocks have the same level of unsystematic risk. Which one of the following assertions is most likely to be true?
a. Portfolio A has less systematic risk than portfolio B, and portfolio A and less unsystematic risk than portfolio B
b. Portfolio A has less systematic risk than portfolio B, and portfolio A and more unsystematic risk than portfolio B
c. Portfolio A has more systematic risk than portfolio B, and portfolio A and less unsystematic risk than portfolio B
d. Portfolio A has more systematic risk than portfolio B, and portfolio A and more unsystematic risk than portfolio B

Answers

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Systemic risk are risk that are inherent in the economy. They cannot be diversified away. They are also known as market risk. examples of this risk include recession, inflation, and high interest rates. Investors should seek compensation for systemic risk. Systemic risk is measured by beta. The higher beta is, the higher the systemic risk and the higher the compensation demanded for by investors

the systemic risk of portfolio A = 1

systemic  risk of portfolio B = (proportion of Gourmet Restaurant's stock x beta of Gourmet Restaurant's stock) + (proportion of Suppertime Restaurant's stock x beta of Suppertime Restaurant's stock)

([tex]\frac{500}{1500}[/tex] × 0.6) + ([tex]\frac{1000}{1500}[/tex] × 1.4) = 0.2 + 0.9 = 1.1

Portfolio B has a higher beta and thus a higher systemic risk than Portfolio A

Non systemic risk are risks that can be diversified away. they are also called company specific risk. Examples of this type of risk is a manager engaging in fraudulent activities.

Portfolio A is more diversified than portfolio B. Thus, Portfolio B has a higher non-systemic risk

Answers

Answer:

It is not an example of price discrimination

It is an example of price discrimination

Explanation:

Price discrimination is when the same product is sold at different prices to customers in different markets

types of price discrimination

1. first degree price discrimination : here sellers charge each consumer at their willingness to pay in order to eliminate consumer surplus.

2. second degree price discrimination : here firms offer different prices depending on the quantity purchased. e.g. giving discounts for bulk purchases.  

3, third degree price discrimination : firms charge different prices to different groups of customers. e.g. having a certain price for senior citizens, students  

Requirements to practice successful price discrimination  

1. The firm must have market power. If the firm does not have market power and attempts to price discriminate they would lose customers

2. The firm must have different elasticities of demand for their product in different markets

3. The firm must be able to segment the market for their products  

the first scenario is not an example of price discrimination because both customers that know about the sale and those that do not, end up paying the same price. Consumers are not segmented.

the second scenario is an example of price discrimination because different prices are offered to different groups of consumers based on location travelled and specified travel period. this most likely is an example of third degree price segmentation

Globe Travel Agency sells Spring Break trips to University of Houston undergraduate students. The fixed cost of Globe is $100,000 and its variable cost is $400 for every student who takes the trip Globe offers. The price elasticity of demand is -2.5 at all levels of price. At present, the price of the trip is $600/student and, at this price, demand is 1200 units. Assume that the number of trips sold always equals demand.

Required:
Compute the breakeven quantity at current price, P =$600.

Answers

Answer:

the breakeven quantity at current price is 500 units

Explanation:

The computation of the  breakeven quantity at current price is shown below:

Breakeven point = Fixed cost ÷ (Price per unit - variable cost per unit)

= $100,000 ÷ ($600 - $400)

 = 500 units

Hence, the breakeven quantity at current price is 500 units

We simply used the above formula so that the correct units could arrive

Coupon rate = 12%

Market yield rate = 10%

June 30:

Cash payment = $150,000 ($2,500,000 * 6%)

Interest expense $146,449 ($2,928,977 * 5%)

Amortized Premium  3,551 ($150,000 - $146,449)

Bonds value = $2,925,426 ($2,928,977 - $3,551)

December 31:

Cash Payment = $150,000 ($2,500,000 * 6%)

Interest expense $146,271 ($2,925,426)

Amortized premium 3,729 ($150,000 - $146,271)

Bonds value = $2,921,697 ($2,925,426 - $3,729)
