Answer: (E) none of the other choices

Explanation:

None of the options are correct in the above question.

The USA extends Most Favoured Nation Status to most countries in the world including Germany so that would not be a reason for the car's not to pass through customs.

The cars could indeed be a threat to national security. Just because they come from a safe country does not mean that they were not tampered with. They need to be properly inspected.

They are indeed a source of competition for US automakers but that would be no reason to stop them. Perhaps tariffs could be applied on them but they will not be stopped.

There is no provision in US Customs practices that prohibits the importation of used cars solely because they are used cars therefore it will not be a reason to halt the car's going through customs.

None of the options are therefore correct.

Answer:

Since elasticity is 6.4, a positive figure,it is normal good and the fact that it is greater than one means it is elastic,hence option A is correct

Explanation:

The formula for income elasticity of demand is given as:

/(new quantity-old quantity)//(old price+new price)/2)/(New income-Old income)/(old income+new income)/2)

New income=$33,000

Old income=$31,900

New quantity =5 times

Old quantity=3 times

Hence=(5-3)/(3+5)/2)/(33500-31900)/(31900+33500)/2)

Elasticity=6.45

Suire Corporation is considering dropping product D14E. Data from the company's accounting system appear below: Sales $ 670,000
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

a. According to the company's accounting system, what is the net operating income earned by product D14E? (Net losses should be indicated by a minus sign.)

  • net loss -$65,000

b. What would be the financial advantage (disadvantage) of dropping product D14E? Should the product be dropped?

  • financial disadvantage of discontinuing the produce is -$68,000, so the company should not discontinue the product since its losses would increase

Explanation:

total sales $670,000

- variable expenses $295,000

- fixed manufacturing expenses $246,000

- fixed selling and administrative expenses $194,000

net loss = $65,000

if product D14E is discontinued, $196,000 + $111,000 = $307,000, of fixed expenses can be avoided, but $133,000 are not avoidable. if the company discontinues the product, its losses will increase by $133,000 - $65,000 = $68,000

AfilCa [17]

Answer:

$200,000

The Washington Company purchased a new machine for $200,000. In addition to the invoice cost of the unit they had to pay $5,000
ehidna [41]

Answer:

The answers are $20,000 and $17,500.

Explanation:

Straight Line Depreciation is a calculation made to find the amount that an asset's value has reduced over a certain period of time.

The formula for it is \frac{(Cost Of Asset) - (Salvage Value)}{Asset Life}.

The cost of the asset is $200,000 but for the first year there are also the freight, wiring and installation costs which apply just once and they come up to $25,000 in total.

So the depreciation for year one is going to be \frac{225,000 - 25,000}{10} which is $20000.

The depreciation for year two is going to be \frac{200,000 - 25,000}{10} which is $17,500.

I hope this answer helps.
