Answer:
a. The optimal pricing strategy will be one-shot Nash equilibrium in which “You” charge low price, “Your Rival” charge low price and then the payoff is ($0, $0)
b. Yes, the anwer will differ becuase it is not possible to sustain the collusive outcome as a Nash equilibrium because [tex]\pi ^{Cheat}[/tex] > [tex]\pi ^{Cooperate}[/tex].
Explanation:
a. Determine your optimal pricing strategy if you and your rival believe that the new Highlander is a "special edition" that will be sold only for one year.
Note: See the attached excel file for the Representation of one shot normal for of the game played between "You" and "Your Rival" together with the payoffs.
From the attached excel file, the dominant strategy is for “You” and “Your Rival” to charge “Low Price” each. If the dominant strategy is played by “You” and “Your Rival”, the optimal pricing strategy will be one-shot Nash equilibrium in which “You” charge low price, “Your Rival” charge low price and then the payoff is ($0, $0).
b. Would your answer differ if you and your rival were required to resubmit price quotes year after year and if, in any given year, there was a 60 percent chance that Toyota would discontinue the Highlander? Explain.
When we have a year-after-year competition between “You” and “Your Rival” but with a 60 percent chance that Toyota would discontinue the Highlander, the payoffs of the firm that continue to comply with the collusive strategy of charging “High Price” by each firm under the normal trigger strategy whereby “You” and “Your Rival” agree to charge high price as long as there is no past deviation by any of the firm, otherwise charge a low price is as follows:
[tex]\pi ^{Cooperate}[/tex] = $6 + $6(100% - 60%) + $6(100% - 60%)^2 + 6(100% - 60%)^2 …….
[tex]\pi ^{Cooperate}[/tex] = $6 / 6% = $10
Therefore, what the firm that cheats earn today is $11 million and it earns $0 forever. The implication of this is that [tex]\pi ^{Cheat}[/tex] = $11
Therefore, the anwer will differ becuase it is not possible to sustain the collusive outcome as a Nash equilibrium because [tex]\pi ^{Cheat}[/tex] > [tex]\pi ^{Cooperate}[/tex].
Consider a hypothetical economy. Households spend $0.90 of each additional dollar they earn and save the remaining $0.10. The spending multiplier for this economy is ___________. Suppose investment in this economy decreases by $200 billion. The decrease in investment will lead to a decrease in income, generating a decrease in consumption that decreases income yet again, and so on.
Answer:
Spending multiplier = 10Change in consumption = -$180 billionExplanation:
The spending multiplier is calculated by the formula:
= 1 / Marginal propensity to save
The marginal propensity to save is the proportion of every additional dollar that is saved which is this case is $0.10 which is 10%.
Spending multiplier is:
= 1 / 0.1
= 10
Change in consumption as a result of the decrease:
= -200 * marginal propensity to consume
= - 200 * 0.9
= -$180 billion
A portfolio manager plans to use a Treasury bond futures contract to hedge a bond portfolio over the next three months. The portfolio is worth $100 million and will have a duration of 5.6 years in three months. The futures price is 112, and each futures contract is on $100,000 of bonds. The bond that is expected to be cheapest to deliver will have a duration of 9.0 years at the maturity of the futures contract. What position in futures contracts is required
Answer: 556
Explanation:
The position in futures contracts that is required will be calculated thus:
= (100,000,000 × 5.6) / (112,000 × 9)
= 560,000,000 / 1,008,000
= 555.5
= 556 approximately
Therefore, based on the calculation, the answer is 556.
Big Corporation receives management consulting services from its 95 percent owned subsidiary, Small Inc. For the year 20X8, Small billed Big $140,000. Small's labor cost and other associated costs for the employees providing services to Big totaled $121,000 in 20X8. Big reported $2,567,000 of income from its own separate operations for 20X8, and Small reported net income of $695,000. Based on the preceding information, what amount of income should be assigned to the noncontrolling shareholders in the consolidated income statement for 20X8
Answer: $34750
Explanation:
The amount of income should be assigned to the noncontrolling shareholders in the consolidated income statement for 20X8 will be:
Net income of Small = $695,000
Bug company's share = 95% × $695000 = $660250
Therefore, non controlling shareholders at 5% will be:
= 5% × Net income of Small
= 5% × $695000
= 0.05 × $695000
= $34750
The campaign manager for a doomed candidate is considering which states to visit during the last frenzied campaign week leading up to the nationwide election. Pennsylvania (P), Wisconsin (W), Florida (F), New York (Y), and North Carolina (C) are all aching for one last visit, but the candidate has only 80 hours and $250 million left in her campaign fund. A visit to Pennsylvania takes 10 hours and costs $15 million but earns 1% of the electorate. A visit to Wisconsin takes 15 hours and costs $20 million and earns 1.5%; a visit to Florida is only $8 million but takes 16 hours and earns 2%, and a visit to New York costs $25 million, requires 2 hours and earns 2% of the electorate. North Carolina requires 18 hours and $22 million per trip but earns 3% of the electorate. What is the objective function if the campaign manager wants to earn the highest electorate
Answer: maximize P + 1.5W + 2F + 2Y + 3C
Explanation:
The objective function refers to an equation that is used in describing the target of production output which maximizes profits.
The objective function is used to determine the profitability of a business as profits are maximized while losses are minimized.
The objective function if the campaign manager wants to earn the highest electorate will be to maximize P + 1.5W + 2F + 2Y + 3C

Portia owns and manages a sporting apparel company. Consider the given average cost (AC), average variable cost (AVC), and marginal cost (MC) curves for track suits. All but the MC curve have been placed incorrectly. Portia knows that the minimum average cost for a track suit is $7 and the minimum of average variable cost is $5.
Required:
Draw the AC and AVC curves so that they are consistent with the marginal cost curve.
Answer:
AVC curve will be below the AC curve
Explanation:
As we know,
[tex]AC = AFC + AVC[/tex]
This means that Average cost is the sum of average fixed cost and Average variable cost. Thus it can be shown that AC curve will be above the AVC curve.
Also we know that MC curve is upward sloping.
Thus, the MC curve will cut the AVC curve first and it will be to the right of the point where the MC curve cuts the AC curve.
So the curve must look like,

Bridge City Consulting bought a building and the land on which it is located for $175,000 cash. The land is estimated to represent 70 percent of the purchase price. The company paid $20,000 for building renovations before it was ready for use. Compute straight-line depreciation on the building at the end of one year, assuming an estimated 10-year useful life and a $19,500 estimated residual value. (Do not round intermediate calculations.) What should be the book value of (a) the land and (b) the building at the end of year 2
Answer:
Part 1
D.E = $5,300
Part 2
a. Book Value = $61,900
b. Book Value = $122,500
Explanation:
Step 1 : Determine the Cost of Buildings
Separate the Cost of Land and the Cost of Building from the Purchase Price
Calculation of the Cost of Building
Purchase Price ($175,000 x 30%) $52,500
Building Renovations $20,000
Total $72,500
Step 2 : Depreciation calculation
Depreciation expense = (Cost - Residual Value) ÷ Useful Life
= ($72,500 - $19,500) ÷ 10
= $5,300
After Year 2
Buildings :
Accumulated Depreciation = $10,600
Book Value = $72,500 - $10,600 = $61,900
Land
Book Value = $175,000 x 70% = $122,500
Note : Land is not depreciated

What is the deadweight loss of the tax
Answer:
$25
Explanation:
Willingness to pay is the highest amount a consumer is willing to pay for a service
A tax is a compulsory sum levied on goods and services by the government. Taxes increases the price of goods
deadweight loss of the tax is the reduction in demand or efficiency as a result of tax
Larry estimates that the costs of insurance, license, and depreciation to operate his car total $320 per month and that the gas, oil, and maintenance costs are 14 cents per mile. Larry also estimates that, on average, he drives his car 1,400 miles per month. Required: a. How much cost would Larry expect to incur during April if he drove the car 1,529 miles
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
The question above is incomplete. The concluding part is
b. Would it be meaningful for Larry to calculate an estimated average cost per mile for a typical 1,400 mile month. Yes or No
Given the above information,
a. Total number of miles driven = 1.529 miles
Total cost = Fixed cost + Variable cost × Number of miles driven
= $320 + $0.14 × 1,529
= $320 + $214.06
= $534.06
b. Since $320 per month is the fixed, the fixed cost per mile will decrease with the increase in number of miles driven . It means that if he drives less than 1,400 miles , the actual cost will be more than the cost based on predetermined overhead rate of the cost.
No. It would not be meaningful for Larry to calculate an estimated average cost per mile for a typical 1,400 mile month.
ABC's beginning inventory is $2,000 and its ending inventory is $1,000. The inventory turnover is 6 times. Cost of goods sold for the year must equal:
Answer:
$9000
Explanation:
Inventory turnover is an example of an activity ratio
Activity ratios calculate the efficiency of performing daily task of a firm
Inventory turnover = cost of goods sold / average inventory
Average inventory = (beginning inventory + ending inventory) / 2
($2000 + $1000) / 2 = $1500
6 = cost of goods sold / 1500
To determine cost of goods sold, multiply both sides of the equation by 1500
1500 x 6 = $9000 = cost of goods sold

Consider two perfectly negatively correlated risky securities, A and B. Security A has an expected rate of return of 12% and a standard deviation of return of 17%. B has an expected rate of return of 9% and a standard deviation of return of 14%.
Required:
a. What are the weights of A and B in the global minimum variance portfolio respectively?
b. What is the rate of return on the risk-free portfolio that can be formed with the two securities ?
Answer:
A) Weight of Security A = 0.45
Weight of Security B = 0.55
B)Risk free rate = 10.35%
Explanation:
We are given;
A) Expected rate of return for Security A; ERR = 12%
Standard deviation of return for Security A; SD = 17%
Expected rate of return for Security B; ERR = 9%
Standard deviation of return for Security B; SD = 14%
Now, formula for weight of Security A is;
Weight of security A = SD of security B ÷ (SD of security B + SD of security A)
Weight of Security A = 14%/(14% + 17%)
Weight of Security A ≈ 0.45
Weight of Security B = 1 - weight of Security A
Weight of Security B = 1 - 0.45
Weight of Security B = 0.55
B) Formula for the risk free rate is;
Risk free rate = (weight of Security A × ERR of security A) + (weight of Security B × ERR of security B)
Risk free rate = (0.45 × 12%) + (0.55 × 9%)
Risk free rate = 10.35%
The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is determined each month by multiple choice 1 averaging all the prices of goods and services in the economy. estimating the prices of goods and services in the economy at the same rate as the cost of living increases. comparing the value of a market basket of goods that consumers typically purchase to the value of the basket in cities around the country. comparing the value of a market basket of goods that consumers typically purchase to the value of the basket in a base year.
Answer:
The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is determined each month by
comparing the value of a market basket of goods that consumers typically purchase to the value of the basket in a base year.
Explanation:
The US Consumer Price Index (CPI) is an important statistical tool for identifying inflation and deflation periods in the US economy. It computes the weighted average of prices of a predetermined basket of consumer goods and services. With the CPI changes, the assessment of the general cost of living in the economy becomes easier.
Private producers have no incentive to provide public goods because A. the government subsidy granted is usually insufficient to enable private producers to make a profit. B. production of huge quantities of public goods entails huge fixed costs.
Answer:
Private producers have no incentive to provide public goods because
B. production of huge quantities of public goods entails huge fixed costs.
Explanation:
There is rivalry in the production and consumption of private goods. This rivalry is generally described as competition. Most public goods are produced naturally or provided by the government to her citizens. Since they are made available for the welfare of the people, there is usually no cost recovery or exclusion of persons based on financial affordability. But private goods are manufactured and sold by private companies or individuals for a profit motive.
Chris invests a total of $19,000 in two accounts. The first account earned a rate of return of 13% (after a year). However, the second account suffered a 2% loss in the same time period. At the end of one year, the total amount of money gained was $1,495.00. How much was invested into each account
Answer:
Amount invested in account with 13% return = $12499.97 rounded off to 12500
Amount invested in account with -2% return = 6500.03 rounded off to 6500
Explanation:
To calculate the amount invested in each account, we must first calculate the total return earned by Chris as a percentage of his investment.
Total Return/gain = 1495 / 19000 = 0.078684 or 7.8684%
To calculate the overall return, we must use the weighted average of returns provided by each account. The weighted average can be calculated as follows,
Average Overall Return = wA * rA + wB * rB
Where,
w represents the weight of investment in each account as a percentage of overall investmentr represents the return provided by each accountLet weight of investment in account that provided 13% return be x
Let weight of investment in account that provided -2% return be (1 - x)
0.078684 = x * 0.13 + (1-x) * -0.02
0.078684 = 0.13x - 0.02 + 0.02x
0.078684 + 0.02 = 0.15x
x = 0.098684 / 0.15
x = 0.65789333333 or 65.789333333%
Amount invested in account with 13% return = 19000 * 65.789333333%
Amount invested in account with 13% return = $12499.97 rounded off to 12500
Amount invested in account with -2% return = 19000 * (1 - 65.789333333%)
Amount invested in account with -2% return = 6500.03 rounded off to 6500

Machine-hour capacity allows 100 anchor bolts, only; 50 bearings, only; 40 casters, only; or any combination of the three that does not exceed the capacity. The direct labor hour constraint for Harrington's linear programming model is: ___________
Answer:
Labour hours constraint : 2a + 2b + 3c ≤ 150
Explanation:
Linear programming is a mathematical model that is used to solve a problem when a firm wants to maximize profit in the midst of multiple resource constraints.
The following steps should be followed:
Step 1: Define the variables
a= the units of product Anchor
b= the units of product Bearing
c= the units of product Casting
Step 2: Define the constraints:
The constraints represent the limitations which could be resource; in this case machine hours and direct labour hours. Since the constraint in focus is labour hours , so we only consider it.
Subject
Constraints: Labour hours : 2a + 2b + 3c ≤ 150
Non-negativity constraints a, b , c ≥ 0
Since the total available labour hours is 150 hours then the total consumption hours can either be equal to or less than 150, but can never be higher than 150.
The labour hours constraint is represented by 2a + 2b + 3c ≤ 150

Answer:
Total allocated costs= $53,070
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the allocation rates using the following formula:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Quality control= 77,000 / 1,100 = $70 per inspection
Machine operation= 153,000 / 1,500 = $102 per machine hour
Materials handling= 1,200 / 30 = $40 per batch
Miscellaneous overhead cost= 57,000 / 5,700= $10 per labor hour
Now, we can allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Quality control= 70*295= 20,650
Machine operation= 102*240= 24,480
Materials handling= 40*6= 240
Miscellaneous overhead cost= 10*770= 7,700
Total allocated costs= $53,070
Fraud is encouraged when a notary does what?

Overcharging for notary public services. Notarizing a document without the signer being in the notary's presence. Notarizing the notary's own signature. Issuing identification cards.
Explanation:
Excessive fees for notarial services, signing a document without the signer being present and notarizing it. the notary's signature is notarized. making identity cards available.
What is notary fraud?If a Notary Public violates the law while carrying out their responsibilities, they are held personally accountable. A Notary Public must post a bond in order to protect the injured party's right to recover up to $10,000. Despite this, the Notary Public is still personally responsible for any damages they may have caused, and they risk criminal prosecution as well as the revocation or suspension of their notary public commission.
A few examples of notary fraud include:
ignoring your documents' acknowledgmentcounterfeit stampsletting a signer sign a document without the presence of a notary publicA Notary Public who has been paid off to falsely recognize a document is the starting point of many fraud cases, particularly those involving real estate fraud. Due to the fact that practically all papers submitted in the county records require a notary stamp, this scenario occasionally occurs.
