A government wants to reduce electricity consumption by 10%. The price elasticity of demand for electricity is -5. The government must ________ the price of electricity by ________.
Answer:
increase
2%
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.
Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price
If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.
5 = 10 / percentage change in price
percentage change in price = 10%/5 = 2%
Demand is elastic because the elasticity of demand is greater than 1 in absolute terms. So, if price is increased, there would be a greater change in quantity demanded.
There will be a higher equilibrium price and quantity if _____.
Answer:
An increase in demand
Explanation:
At equilibrium quantity, there is no excess or shortage in supply. The quantity supplied match with quantity supplied. The equilibrium price is the prevailing market price where there no excess or shortage in demand or supply. At the equilibrium point, Both suppliers and buyers are happy with the current price and quantity supplied.
An increase in demand will make suppliers increase supply to meet the new high demand. As demand increases, prices tend to rise. An increase in demand, therefore, cause the equilibrium price and quantity to increase.
Robin Company has the following balances for the current month: Direct materials used $ 19,000 Direct labor $ 21,750 Sales salaries $ 11,250 Indirect labor $ 1,900 Production manager's salary $ 6,050 Marketing costs $ 8,350 Factory lease $ 4,020 What is Robin's total manufacturing overhead

The following options are the valid reasons
1. Option c is valid as the lacking of control would generate the valuation that creates the difference compared with the purchase route.
2 Option a is valid as at the time of purchased made, synergies this would become a big factor for incorporation the valuation
3. OPtion d is valid as the control premium would push up the valuation in the previous transactions
But the option b is not valid as the discounted cash flow and the previous transaction would be considered as important for the valuation purpose

A toy manufacturer estimates the demand for a game to be 2000 per year. Each game costs $3 to manufacture, plus setup costs of $500 for each production run. If a game can be stored for a year for a cost of $2, how many should be manufactured at a time and how many production runs should there be to minimize costs
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
We will compute the above using the EOQ
EOQ = √ 2 × D × S / H
EOQ = √ 2 × 2,000 × 500 / 2 × 3

Marginal cost A) is the increase in total cost resulting from producing one more unit. B) is the average cost of production divided by output. C) equals the increase in AVC resulting from producing one more unit. D) always equals average cost.
Answer: A) is the increase in total cost resulting from producing one more unit.
Explanation:
Marginal cost is the increase in total cost that a company incurs from producing one more unit of the good being produced. It includes both fixed and variable cost and can be calculated by dividing the change in cost by the change in quantity.
Marginal cost is an important metric in profit maximisation because it tells the point where profit is maximised when it equals Marginal revenue.
Match the terms to their definition. 1. annual percentage yield the amount of interest you will earn in one year from a savings account 2. interest thresholds different interest rates paid for different size balances, with higher balances earning higher rates 3. money market account the minimum balances before the bank begins paying interest 4. variable interest rates a savings account that offers a higher rate of interest when you make large deposits
Answer:
The terms are mixed up with the definitions. They are:
Annual percentage yield, Interest thresholds, Variable interest rates and Money market account.
1. The amount of interest you will earn in one year from a savings account ⇒ Annual percentage yield
The annual percentage yield is the interest rate that shows how much your account will increased by in a year.
2. Different interest rates paid for different size balances, with higher balances earning higher rates ⇒ Variable interest rates.
Variable rates are meant to reward higher balances are so are different per account balances.
3. The minimum balances before the bank begins paying interest ⇒ Interest thresholds.
Banks have interest thresholds which show the minimum value that an account must have in order to start accruing interest.
4. A savings account that offers a higher rate of interest when you make large deposits ⇒ Money market account
Money market accounts make returns by trading short term instruments which enables them to offer higher rates of return. They however require large deposits.

The next dividend payment by Hot Wings, Inc., will be $4.25 per share. The dividends are anticipated to maintain a 3 percent growth rate forever. Required:If the stock currently sells for $59 per share, what is the required return
Answer:
10.20%
Explanation:
According to the Gordon constant growth model :
value = D1 / r - g
D1 = next dividend = $4.25
r = required return
g = growth rate = 3%
value = $59
$59 = $4.25 / r - 0.03
4.25 / 59 = r - 0.03
0.072034 = r - 0.03
r = 0.102034
r = 10.20%

Delegating means being responsible for all the work.
A True
B. False
Answer:
B. False
Explanation:
Delegating is using one's authority to assign some responsibilities to team members. Usually, delegations stem from a senior officer to a junior officer but can also be between co-workers. It is authorizing and empowering someone else to execute some of your responsibilities on your behalf.
In delegation, the delegating authority must provide clear guidance on how the assigned duties are discharged. Some level of supervision is still required as delegating does not take away the accountability element from the delegating authority.

A company uses the finite replenishment model to determine the optimal quantity to produce. There are days a year over which demand and production occur. The daily demand is , and the production rate is per day. The setup cost for production is $ per setup. Assuming that the carrying cost is percent of the item's $ cost, what is the length, in days, of a production run if the company produces the replenishment quantity that minimizes its inventory-related costs?
Answer:
16.1 days
Explanation:
Note: The full question is attached as picture below
Daily demand d = 520
Annual demand D = 520*250 = 130000
Setup cost S = $680
Production rate p = 875
Holding cost H = 0.25*25 = 6.25
Optimal order quantity Q
[tex]Q = \sqrt{2DS/H}[/tex] [tex]\sqrt{p / p -d}[/tex]
[tex]Q = \sqrt{(2*130000*680)/6.25} \sqrt{875/875-520}[/tex]
Q = 8350
Length of production run = Q/d
Length of production run = 8350/520
Length of production run = 16.05769230769231
Length of production run = 16.1 days

The scenarios each illustrate a principle of economics. Classify each scenario according to the principle that best fits it.
a. On Black Friday, there are huge sales for electronics at many retail stores. David must decide between buying a camera at one store or a flat screen TV at another store, and buying one means losing out on the ability to purchase the other.
b. An educational software company wants to expand the number of economics questions that it offers and is considering hiring another economist. The company compares how much adding another worker will improve the product to the additional cost.
c. Ava finds that there is not enough time after work to have dinner, exercise, and watch TV, and she must make choices about how to use her limited time.
1. Marginal Decisions
2. Resource Scarcity
3. Opportunity Cost
Answer:
3. Opportunity Cost
1. Marginal Decisions
2. Resource Scarcity
Explanation:
Opportunity cost or implicit is the cost of the next best option forgone when one alternative is chosen over other alternatives.
If David buys the camera he would forgo the opportunity to buy a tv and if he buys a tv, he forgoes the opportunity to buy a camera.
Marginal decisions look at the benefit of increasing or decreasing an input by little units. Here, the educational company is considering the marginal benefit of increasing the numbers of economist by one unit.
Ava has limited time to do all she would like to do. Time here is a scarce resource. Her wants her limited but the resources are scarce.
There is a 10 percent chance that you will have healthcare bills of $200,000; a 20 percent chance that you will have bills of $10,000; a 59 percent chance that you will have bills of $1,000; and an 11 percent chance of having bills of $0. Your expected healthcare bills are Group of answer choices $22,590. $22,000. $20,590. $19,590.
Answer:
Expected value of healthcare bills = $22590
Explanation:
The expected value of the healthcare bills can be calculated by multiplying the probability of the a healthcare bill by the amount in case of that probability situation.
Expected value = pA * Amount in case of A + pB * Amount in case of B + ... + pN * Amount in case of N
Where,
p represents the probability of each scenario
Expected value of healthcare bills = 0.1 * 200000 + 0.2 * 10000 + 0.59 * 1000 + 0.11 * 0
Expected value of healthcare bills = $22590
Describe the shifts in the world economy over the past 30 years. What are the implications of these shifts for international businesses based in the United Kingdom
Answer:
In the last 30 years, national economies have shifted towards decreasing trade barriers, and the world is becoming global economic space. Economic turbulence, especially in one of the major economies like the US, Europe, and China, tends to have ripple effects on other world economies. For example, the subprime housing crisis in 2008, which upturned the US economy, reached global proportions with the economic and financial meltdowns that were felt globally.
The new emergence in the economic system suggests that national boundaries are shrinking, and economies are becoming integrated and interdependent. In the last 30 years, China emerged as a global economic superpower, challenging the dominance of the US and European economies.
For businesses based in the United Kingdom, they have wider opportunities and better playing grounds. They can look beyond Europe and the US for investment and business opportunities. China, especially Hong Kong, is becoming an investment haven. Even other developing countries like Brazil, South Africa, and Dubai are becoming more attractive with increased consumer spending.
Secondly, the United Kingdom will continue to be the center of attraction for some Asian firms that will use London as a launching pad for their European businesses. This also poses some threats, just as it generates opportunities for global expansion of UK-based businesses.
Explanation:
Globalization has caused the world economies to merge and become a global economy. However, in the last four years, China seems to be recoiling to its shelves with the coming on board of the Trump Administration, which had exposed China's behind-the-door fiscal and monetary policies. This started when the administration labeled China as a currency manipulator. China is becoming alienated from the US and having its reputation tarnished internationally. The earlier prediction that China would emerge as the dominant superpower economy in 2010 was not wholly realized. China is re-strategizing by concentrating its investments in Asia, Africa, Latin America, and some parts of Europe.
Determine the beta coefficient for a stock with a return of 10%, risk free rate of 3% and the market return of 9%.
Answer: 1.167
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed to calculate the beta coefficient for a stock with a return of 10%, risk free rate of 3% and the market return of 9%. This would go thus:
Beta = (stock return - riskfree rate) / (market return - riskfree rate)
= (10% - 3%) / (9% - 3%)
= 7% / 6%
= 0.07 / 0.06
=1.167
