Answers

In long-run competitive equilibrium SRATC = LRATC, because if SRATC > LRATC (at the quantity of output at which MR = MC) firms would have an incentive to change their plant size to produce their current output.

Option: A

Explanation:

In perfect competition, balance is the stage where consumer demands are equal to market supply. In the short term demand can impact stability. In the long run both a product's demand and supply would influence the balance in perfect competition.

The increase in the quantity of output generated is the SRTC i.e short-run total cost and LRTC i.e long-run total cost scales because generating more output needs more labor utilization for both the short and long runs, and since, in the long run, generating more output implies using more of the physical resource supply; and by using more of either supply means incurring more production costs.

Faucet Company has 2,500,000 shares of common stock outstanding on December 31, year 1. An additional 500,000 shares of common stock were issued on April 1, year 2, and 250,000 more on July 1, year 2. On October 1, year 2, Faucet issued 5,000, $1,000 face value, 7% convertible bonds. Each bond is convertible into 40 shares of common stock. No bonds were converted into common stock in year 2. What is the number of shares to be used in computing basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share, respectively, for the year ended December 31, year 2?

Answers

Answer:

Number of Shares for Basic Earnings per Share = 3,000,000

Number of Shares for Diluted Earnings per Share = 3,200,000

Explanation:

Basic Earnings per Share = Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock / Weighted Average Number of Common Shares

Weighted Average Number of Common Shares

Common Shares Outstanding - December 31, year 1        2,500,000

April 1, Year 2 Issue, 9/12× 500,000                                      375,000

July 1, Year 2 Issue, 6/12× 250,000                                        125,000

Number of Shares for Basic Earnings per Share               3,000,000

Diluted Earnings per Share =Adjusted Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock /Adjusted Weighted Average Number of Common Shares

Adjusted Weighted Average Number of Common Shares

Number of Shares for Basic Earnings per Share               3,000,000

Add 7% convertible bonds (5,000×40 shares)                     200,000

Number of Shares for Diluted Earnings per Share            3,200,000

Final answer:

To compute basic earnings per share (EPS) and diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, year 2, we need to consider the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The number of shares to be used in computing basic EPS would be 2,500,000 for the first three months, then 3,000,000 for the next six months, and finally 3,250,000 for the last three months. For diluted EPS, we would use the same number of shares as the basic EPS calculation.

Explanation:

To compute basic earnings per share (EPS), we need to consider the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. For this, we calculate the number of months each share was outstanding and then multiply it by the number of shares for that period. The number of shares to be used in computing basic EPS would be 2,500,000 for the first three months, then 3,000,000 (2,500,000 + 500,000) for the next six months, and finally 3,250,000 (2,500,000 + 500,000 + 250,000) for the last three months.

For diluted EPS, we need to consider the potential dilutive effect of convertible bonds. Since no bonds were converted into common stock, the number of shares to be used in computing diluted EPS would be the same as the basic EPS calculation.

Treynor Pie Company is a food company specializing in high-calorie snack foods. It is seeking to diversify its food business and lower its risks. It is examining three companies—a gourmet restaurant chain, a baby food company, and a nutritional products firm. Each of these companies can be bought at the same multiple of earnings. The following represents information about all the companies. Company Correlation with Treynor Pie Company Sales ($ millions) Expected Earnings ($ millions) Standard Deviation in Earnings ($ millions) Treynor PieCompany + 1.0 $ 170 $ 8 $ 2.0 Gourmet restaurant + .4 64 8 1.3 Baby food company + .4 53 5 1.8 Nutritionalproducts company − .7 71 6 3.6 a-1. Compute the coefficient of variation for each of the four companies

Answers

Answer:

The coefficient of variation for each of the four companies is:

- Treynor Pie Company = 0.25  (2/8)

- Gourmet restaurant = 0.16  (1.3/8)

- Baby food Company = 0.36  (1.8/5)

- Nutritional products Company = 0.16 (1/6)

Explanation:

In finance, the coefficient of variation is a statistical measure that represents the ratio of the standard deviation and the mean of a data series related to the return on investment. It allows investors to determine how much volatility, or risk, is assumed in comparison to the amount of return expected from investments. The lower the ratio of the standard deviation to mean return, the better risk-return trade-off.

Formula:  CV=σ/μ

Where:  

σ = standard deviation

μ = mean

3. If the average price of an airline ticket on a certain route rises from $200 to $250, the number of tickets sold drop from 800 to 600. Calculate the price elasticity of demand. Is the demand elastic or inelastic?

Answers

Answer:

-Price elasticity of demand=0.77

-The demand is inelastic because the elasticity is 0.77 and this number is less than 1.

Explanation:

The formula to calculate the price elasticity of demand is:

Price elasticity of demand=% change in the quantity demanded/% change in the price

To use this formula you have to calculate the % change in the quantity demanded and % change in the price:

% change in the quantity demanded=(Q2-Q1/((Q2+Q1)/2))*100

% change in the quantity demanded=(250-200/((250+200)/2))*100

% change in the quantity demanded=(50/(450/2))*100

% change in the quantity demanded=(50/225)*100

% change in the quantity demanded=22.22%

% change in the price=(P2-P1/((P2+P1)/2))*100

% change in the price=(600-800/((600+800)/2))*100

% change in the price=(-200/(1400/2))*100

% change in the price=(-200/700)*100

% change in the price=-28.57%

Now, you can replace the values in the formula to to calculate the price elasticity of demand:

Price elasticity of demand= 22.22%/-28.57%

Price elasticity of demand=0.77

The price elasticity of the demand is 0.77. An elastic demand is when the elasticity is greater than 1 and an inelastic demand is when the elasticity is less than one. So, according to this, the demand is inelastic because the elasticity is 0.77 and this number is less than 1.

Boney Corporation processes sugar beets that it purchases from farmers. Sugar beets are processed in batches. A batch of sugar beets costs $53 to buy from farmers and $18 to crush in the company's plant. Two intermediate products, beet fiber and beet juice, emerge from the crushing process. The beet fiber can be sold as is for $25 or processed further for $18 to make the end product industrial fiber that is sold for $39. The beet juice can be sold as is for $32 or processed further for $28 to make the end product refined sugar that is sold for $79.Which of the intermediate products should be processed further?

beet fiber should NOT be processed into industrial fiber; beet juice should NOT be processed into refined sugar

Answers

Answer:

Beet fiber should NOT be processed into industrial fiber; beet juice should be processed into refined sugar

Explanation:

A company should process further a product if the additional revenue from the split-off point is greater than than the further processing cost.

Also note that all cost incurred up to the point of crush are irrelevant to the decision to process further

Product        Additional Rev.    Further process cost.     Net income(loss)

Fiber              14 i.e (39 -25)                  18                                     (4)

Juice              47.i,e  (79- 32) i.e           28                                    19

The beet fiber should not be process further  while the beet juice should be be processed further into refined sugar . Processing Beet Juice further will generate additional income of 19 per unit
