Product W Product S
Retail #1 $170 $105
Retail #2 $95 $135
What is the optimal pricing strategy that will maximize revenue for the manufacturer, given the maximum the retail outlets are willing to pay?
a. Bundle both products (W and S) and sell them at $275.
b. Price product W at $95 and Product S at $105.
c. Price product W at $170 and Product S at $170.
d. Price product W at $170 and Product S at $135.
e. Bundle both products (W and S) and sell them at $230.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

e. Bundle both products (W and S) and sell them at $230.

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the optimal pricing strategy that will maximize revenue for the manufacturer

Using this formula

Optimal pricing=Retail #2 Product W+ Retail #2 Product S

Let plug in the formula

Optimal pricing=$95+$135

Optimal pricing=$230

Therefore based on the above calculation the OPTIMAL PRICING STRATEGY that will MAXIMIZE REVENUE for the manufacturer, given the MAXIMUM the retail outlets are willing to pay will be to BUNDLE BOTH PRODUCTS (W and S) AND SELL THEM AT $230.

The special equipment has no other use and no salvage value. Total allocated fixed overhead would be unaffected by the decision. The company should ______.

Answers

Answer:

Andrews Co.

The company should ______.

should make the part.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Costs to make Part XYZ:

                                        Cost Per Unit       Total

Variable manufacturing cost  $12          $240,000

Supervisor salary                     $3             $60,000

Depreciation                             $1             $20,000

Allocated fixed overhead        $7           $140,000

Units to be made or bought = 20,000 units

Cost to buy Part XYZ = $18 per part.

Relevant costs:

                                              Make          Buy         Difference

Variable manufacturing cost  $12

Supervisor salary                     $3

Total relevant cost per unit   $15            $18               $3

Total costs                      $300,000   $360,000     $60,000

b) There is a cost-saving of $60,000 when Part XYZ is made internally.  The cost of depreciation is not relevant in the decision since the equipment has no salvage value or any other use.  Similarly, the fixed overhead will still be incurred, no matter the alternative chosen by the company.

Jeff, a local traffic​ engineer, has designed a new pedestrian foot bridge that is capable of handling the current traffic rate of 300 pedestrians daily. Once the traffic rate reaches 2 comma 000 pedestrians​ daily, however, the bridge will require a new bracing system. Jeff has estimated that traffic will increase annually at 3 ​%. How long will the current bridge system work before a new bracing system is​ required? What if the annual traffic rate increases at 8 ​% ​annually? At what traffic increase rate will the current system last only 12 ​years?

Answers

Answer:

a. How long will the current bridge system work before a new bracing system is​ required?: 64.18 years or 64 years and 2 months.

b. What if the annual traffic rate increases at 8 ​% ​annually: The bracing system will last for 24.65 years or 24 years and 7 months.

c. At what traffic increase rate will the current system last only 12 ​years: 17.13%

Explanation:

a. Denote x is the time taken for the number of pedestrian to grow from 300 to 2000. The current pedestrian is 300, the grow rate per year is 3% or 1.03 times a year. Thus, to reach 2,000, we have the equation: 300 x 1.03^x = 2000. Show the equate, we have 1.03^x = 6.67 <=> x = 64.18

b.  Denote x is the time taken for the number of pedestrian to grow from 300 to 2000. The current pedestrian is 300, the grow rate per year is 8% or 1.08 times a year. Thus, to reach 2,000, we have the equation: 300 x 1.08^x = 2000. Show the equate, we have 1.08^x = 6.67 <=> x = 24.65.

c. Denote x as traffic increase rate. The current pedestrian is 300, the grow rate per year is (1+x) times a year. Thus, to reach 2,000 after 12 years and thus a new bracing system to be in place, we have the equation: 300 x (1+x)^12 = 2000. Show the equate, we have (1+x)^12 = 6.67 <=> 1+x = 1.1713 <=> x = 17.13%.

Suppose the annual inflation rate in the US is expected to be 2.5 %, while it is expected to be 18.00 % in Mexico. The current spot rate (on 1/1/X0) for the Mexican Peso (MXN) is $0.1000.

Answers

Answer:

Increase

Explanation:

In putting the question into a better perspective let us assume that the US importer buys goods from Mexico every year to the Tune of 1,000,000 Mexican Pesos.

The expected exchange rate  on 1/1/X1=$0.1000*(1+2.5%)/(1+18%)

The expected exchange rate  on 1/1/X1=$0.086864407

Amount paid based on expected exchange rate=1,000,000*$0.086864407

Amount paid based on expected exchange rate=$86,864.41

Amount paid based on actual exchange=1,000,000*$0.085

Amount paid based on actual exchange=$85,000

The above means that the US importer paid a lesser amount($85000) than it should have paid, hence, its net cash flow would increase due to a reduction in payment

Assume the economy of country G produces hotdogs and buns in the following quantities and prices in 2017 and 2018. Assume also that 2017 is the base year and the real GDP will be calculated using 2017 prices. What is the real yearly growth (between 2017 and 2018)

Answers

Answer:

73.70%

Explanation:

Note: The full question is attached as picture below

Real GDP in 2017 = ($3*5) + ($2*2)

Real GDP in 2017 = $15 + $4

Real GDP in 2017 = $19 million

Real GDP in 2018 = ($3*7) + ($2*6)

Real GDP in 2018 = $21 + $12

Real GDP in 2018 = $33 million

Real Growth rate between 2017 and 2018 = [(33 - 19) / 19] * 100 = [14/19] * 100 = 0.73684211 * 100 = 73.684211% = 73.70%

Turner Enterprises is analyzing a project that is expected to have annual cash flows of $77,400, $21,300 and -$6,200 for Years 1 to 3, respectively. The initial cash outlay is $84,900 and the discount rate is 11 percent. What is the modified IRR

Answers

Answer:

8.26%

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the modified IRR

First step is to calculate the Modified Year 2 cash flow

Modified Year 2 cash flow = $21,300 + (-$6,200)/1.11

Modified Year 2 cash flow= $15,714.41

Now let determine the Modified IRR

Modified IRR:$0 = -$84,900 + $77,400/(1 + IRR) + $15,714.41/(1+ IRR)^2

Modified IRR= 8.26%

Therefore the modified IRR is 8.26%

Round your answers to two decimal places.MAE =MSE =MAPE =Which method appears to provide the more accurate forecasts for the historical data?

Answers

Answer:

1. We have:

MAE = 3.60

MSE = 15.60

MAPE = 25.45

2. We have:

MAE = 2.62

MSE = 11.11

MAPE = 19.59

3. The average of all the historical data provides the more accurate forecasts for the historical data.

Explanation:

Note: This question is not correct as the average of all the historical data is asked to be used as a forecast for the next period in requirements 1 and 2 instead of the naïve method (most recent value) for the first requirement. The correct question is therefore presented before answering the question as follows:

Consider the following time series data.

Week     1      2       3      4       5       6

Value    19    13      15     12     17      15

1. Using the naïve method (most recent value) as the forecast for the next period, compute the following (Round your answers to two decimal places.) measures of forecast accuracy:

a. Mean absolute error (MAE)

b. Mean squared error (MSE)

c. Mean absolute percentage error (MAPE).

2. Using the average of all the historical data as a forecast for the next period, compute the same three values. Round your answers to two decimal places.

3. Which method appears to provide the more accurate forecasts for the historical data?

The explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:

The following formulae are to be used:

MAE = Total of Error / Number of observations

MSE = Total of Error^2 / Number of observations

MAPE = Total of Error % / Number of observations

1. Using the naïve method (most recent value) as the forecast for the next period, compute the following (Round your answers to two decimal places.) measures of forecast accuracy:

Note: See part 1 of the attached excel file for the determination of Naïve and Calculations of Error, Error^2 and Error % using the naïve method as the forecast for the next period.

From the attached excel file, we have:

MAE = 18.00 / 5 = 3.60

MSE = 78.00 / 5 = 15.60

MAPE = 127.23 / 5 = 25.45

2. Using the average of all the historical data as a forecast for the next period, compute the same three values. Round your answers to two decimal places.

Note: See part 2 of the attached excel file for the determination of Naïve and Calculations of Error, Error^2 and Error % using the average of all the historical data as a forecast for the next period.

From the attached excel file, we have:

MAE = 13.12 / 5 = 2.62

MSE = 55.55 / 5 = 11.11

MAPE = 97.94 / 5 = 19.59

3. Which method appears to provide the more accurate forecasts for the historical data?

The average of all the historical data provides the more accurate forecasts for the historical data comparing the values of its MAE, MSE and MAPE to the values of MAE, MSE and MAPE of Naive method. This is because the error values of the average of all the historical data are much lowest and more closest to the actual data.

Calculate the first-period rates of return on the following indexes of the three stocks:
a. A market value–weighted index
b. An equally weighted index.

Answers

Answer:

a. Rate of return = 94.51%

b. Rate of return = 1.68%

Explanation:

a. A market value–weighted index

Total market value at time 0 = Market value of Stock A at time 0 + Market value of Stock B at time 0 + Market value of Stock C at time 0 = ($99 * 100) + ($59 * 200) + ($118 * 20) = $24,060

Total market value at time 1 = Market value of Stock A at time 1 + Market value of Stock B at time 1 + Market value of Stock C at time 1 = ($104 * 100) + ($54 * 200) + ($128 * 200) = $46,800

Rate of return = (Total market value at time 1 / Total market value at time 0) – 1 = ($46,800 / $24,060) - 1 = 0.9451, or 94.51%

b. An equally weighted index

Return on a Stock for the first period = (P1 / P0) - 1 …………. (1)

Therefore, we have:

Return on Stock A for the first period = ($104 / $99) - 1 = 0.0505, or 5.05%

Return on Stock B for the first period = ($54 / $59) - 1 = - 0.0847, or - 8.47%

Return on Stock C for the first period = ($128 / $118) - 1 = 0.0847, or 8.47%

Therefore, we have:

Return of return = (Return on Stock A for the first period + Return on Stock B for the first period + Return on Stock C for the first period) / 3 = (5.05% - 8.47% + 8.47%) / 3 = 1.68%

Answers

Answer:

Total unitary cost= $16.2

Explanation:

First, we need to compute the total fixed overhead:

Total fixed overhead= 10,000*6= 60,000

Now, the unitary absorption cost for 12,500 units:

Direct labor= 2.8

Direct materials= 3.8

Variable overhead= 4.8

Total variable cost= $11.4

Fixed overhead= (60,000/12,500)= 4.8

Total unitary cost= $16.2

The unitary cost is lower.

= $100  × (1  + .05)^2

= $100 ×  (1.1025)

= $110.25

Hence, the  future value in two years is $110.25

Compare and contrast different ways in which a taxpayer triggers a realization event by disposing of an asset.

Answers

Answer:

There are many ways a taxpayer can trigger a realization event.  She can trigger it through a sale or trade by receiving a value greater than the disposed asset.  She can also trigger a realization event by making a gift to charity.  Other ways include disposal, for example, to a landfill and destruction through natural disaster.  In the latter cases, there is a loss to the taxpayer.  With a natural disaster, the taxpayer can only obtain a realization gain if reimbursed by the insurance company.

Explanation:

A realization event happens when there is a sale or a disposal of an asset or a discharge from a liability.  There is usually an increase in the value realized from the disposal, which is greater than the asset's value before disposal. It also happens when the taxpayer receives a relief from a liability or completes a profitable transaction.

When constructing a demand function, it is necessary to hold many other factors constant, so that a relationship between price and output can be established.

a. True
b. False

Answers

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The given statement is true because there are other factors that impact the demand for a commodity for example if the income of a person rises then the person will consume more commodity and the demand curve will shift.

Therefore, other factors should be constant while constructing the demand function because keeping other factors constant will not impact the price and output relationship.

Suppose independent truckers operate in a perfectly competitive constant cost industry. If these firms are earning positive economic profits, what happens in the long run to the following: The price of trucking services

Answers

Answer:

The price of trucking services would fall until equilibrium prices are reached. Only normal profit would be earned in the long run

Explanation:

A perfect competition is characterized by many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.  

In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit.  If in the short run firms are earning economic profit, in the long run firms would enter into the industry. This would drive economic profit to zero.  

Also, if in the short run, firms are earning economic loss, in the long run, firms would exit the industry until economic profit falls to zero.
