Answer:

The value of this firm to shareholders is $70240

Explanation:

Using expected value approach, the value of the firm can be computed as :

(Optimistic value*its probability)+(pessimistic value*its probability)

optimistic value=$139000 and its probability is 68%=0.68

Pessimistic value=$121000 and its probability is 1-0.68=0.32

Expected value=($139000*0.68)+($121000*0.32)

                         =$133240

However, the value to shareholders is the expected value of the firm less debt of $63000

Equity value=$133240-$63000

                      =$70240

The Connors Company has assembled the following data pertaining to certain costs that cannot be easily identified as either fixe
Scilla [17]

Answer:

The cost function is:  

Mixed cost =  3.75x + 1375

Explanation:

A mixed cost is a cost that contains an element of both the fixed and the variable cost in it. The variable element per unit in a mixed cost can be calculated using the high low method. The formula for variable cost per unit under the high low method is,

Variable cost per unit = ( Cost at highest activity level - Cost at lowest activity level)  /  ( units of highest activity level - units of lowest activity level)

The units of activity level here are <u>hours</u>. The highest activity level here is 10300 hours and the lowest activity level here is 5500 hours.

The variable cost per hour = (40000 - 22000)  /  (10300 - 5500)

Variable cost per hour = $3.75

The total fixed cost in this mixed cost =   22000  -  (3.75 * 5500)  = $1375

Thus the cost function is =   3.75x + 1375

Where x is the number of hours

Mo has a credit card that gives a 3% discount on every purchase. The annual percentage rate on the card is 12%. He is purchasing
Luden [163]

Answer:

If Mo pays cash, the cost of the purchase will be $140.

If Mo uses the credit card and pays the full balance during the billing cycle, the cost of the purchase will be $135.80.

Explanation:

If Mo pays cash, it implies that she does not get the 3% discount she is entitled to, with the use of her credit card.  Therefore, she will bear the full cost.  However, if she uses the credit card, the discount is $4.20 ($1540 * 97%) and she will pay only $135.80 as the discounted price of the electronic reader.

inysia [295]

Hello. You forgot to provide the answer options. The options are:

"A) value of all goods and services produced in the economy this year  B) This years prices  C) value of all foods and services produced in the economy this year  D) the base year's prices  E) bought by consumers"

Answer:

The GDP deflator for this year is calculated by dividing the  value of all goods and services produced in the economy this year using this years prices by the value of all foods and services produced in the economy this year using the base year's prices and multiplying by 100. However, the CPI reflects only the prices of all goods and services bought by consumers.

Explanation:

GDP deflator is an economic term that means "implicit price deflator". This term is defined as the price measure for any and all goods and services produced within the country, in the year in question. GDP, in turn, is directly related to this, since it represents the monetary value that each of these goods and services produced during that same year.

The GDP deflator is directly related to the CPI, which is another economic term intended to represent the consumer price index. Through the CPI, the GDP deflator is able to measure the inflation or deflation that occurred in the national economic sector for a given year.

The GDP deflator for this year is calculated by dividing the  value of all goods and services produced in the economy this year using this years prices by the value of all foods and services produced in the economy this year using the base year's prices and multiplying by 100. However, the CPI reflects only the prices of all goods and services bought by consumers.
