Suppose the equilibrium price for soccer tickets in a free market results in 15,000 tickets being purchased. Major League Soccer
Ahat [919]

The Nelson Company has $1,750,000 in current assets and $700,000 in current liabilities. Its initial inventory level is $490,000
aleksley [76]

Answer:

(a) Short-term debt can increase by a maximum of $466,666.67 without pushing its current ratio below 1.9

(b) The firm's quick ratio after Nelson has raised the maximum amount of short-term funds is 1.34

Explanation:

Current assets = $1,750,000

Current liabilities = $700,000

Initial inventory level = $490,000

Current ratio = Current assets ÷ Current liabilities

= $1,750,000 ÷ $700,000 = 2.5

1.9 = (Current assets + \Delta{NP) ÷ (Current liabilities + \Delta{NP)

1.9 = ($1,750,000 + \Delta{NP) ÷ ($700,000 + \Delta{NP)

1.9 × ($700,000 + \Delta{NP) = ($1,750,000 + \Delta{NP)

$1,330,000 + 1.9\Delta{NP = $1,750,000 + \Delta{NP

0.9\Delta{NP =  $1,750,000 - $1,330,000

\Delta{NP = $466,666.67

Short-term debt can increase by a maximum of $466,666.67 without pushing its current ratio below 1.9

Quick ratio = (Current assets - Inventories) ÷ Current liabilities

= $937,500 ÷ $700,000

= 1.34

A local pizzeria sells 500 large pepperoni pizzas per week at a price of $20 each. Suppose the owner of the pizzeria tells you t
kotegsom [21]

Answer: (1) 700 pizzas

(2) Its revenue increases by $2600.

Explanation:

Given that,

price elasticity of demand for his pizza = -4

Percentage change in price = 10%

Initial Quantity,Q_{0} = 500 Pizzas

Elasticity of demand = \frac{Percentage\ change\ in\ quantity }{Percentage\ change\ in\ price }

-4 = \frac{Percentage\ change\ in\ quantity }{0.1 }

\frac{Percentage\ change\ in\ quantity } = -4 × 0.1

\frac{Q_{1}-Q_{0}}{Q_{0}} = 0.4

\frac{Q_{1}-500}{500} = 0.4

∴ Q_{1} = 700

Initial price, P_{0} = $20

Changed price, P_{1} = $18

Revenue at t = 0

P_{0} Q_{0} = 500 × 20 =$10000

Revenue at t = 1

P_{1} Q_{1} = 700 × 18 = $12600

Therefore, from the above calculations it was seen that his revenue increases by ($12600 - $10000)= $2600 and its sales increases to 700.

The XYZ Chemical Company must ship 9,500 gallons of pesticides from its plant in Cincinnati, Ohio, to a customer in Columbia, Mi
never [62]

Answer:

Henderson  = $1,200

Central States = $1,000

Based on the calculations, Central States Railroad is better at a lower cost than Henderson

Explanation:

The question is to do an evaluation of the costs of use Henderson Bulk Trucking Company or the Central States Railroad

Step 1) Determine the cost of using Henderson

What is the cost per tank  truck = $600

What is the capacity in gallons = 700 galloons

However, since XYZ Chemical needs to ship 9,600 gallons, it means it will make use of 2 trucks from Henderson as follows

The cost of Henderson Bulk Trucking = $600 x 2 = $1,200

Step 2) Determine the cost of using Central Railroad

What is the cost per tank  truck = $1000

What is the capacity in gallons = 23,500 galloons

since XYZ Chemical needs to ship 9,600 gallons, it means it will make use of only one of the trucks

The cost of Central Roilroad= $1000 x 1 = $1,000

Based on the calculations, Central States Railroad is better at a lower cost than Henderson
