Two equal-sized newspapers have an overlap circulation of 10% (10% of the subscribers subscribe to both newspapers). Advertisers are willing to pay $24 to advertise in one newspaper but only $45 to advertise in both, because they're unwilling to pay twice to reach the same subscriber. Suppose the advertisers bargain by teling each newspaper that they're going to reach agreement with the other newspaper, whereby they pay the other newspaper $21 to advertise. According to the nonstrategic view of bargaining, each newspaper would earn ____________ with the advertisers. The total gain for the two newspapers from reaching an agreement is $ of the $21 in value added by reaching an agreement _____________.
Suppose the two newspapers merge. As such, the advertisers can no longer bargain by telling each newspaper that they're going to reach agreement with the other newspaper. Thus the total gains for the two parties (the advertisers and the merged newspapers) from reaching an agreement with the advertisers are $21.
According to the nonstrategi argaining, each merged newspaper will earn ___________in an agreement with the advertisers. This gain to the merged newspaper is_____________than the total gains to the individual newspapers pre-meger.

A machine costs $600000 and is expected to yield an after tax net income of $23000 each year. Managment predicts this machine has a 10 year service life and a $120000 salvage value, and it uses straight line depreciation. Compute this machine's accounting rate of return

Answers

Answer:

6.39%

Explanation:

The cost of the machine is $600,000

The net income is $23,000

The management predict a that it has a 10 years service life

The salvage value is $120,000

The first step is to calculate the average investment

Average investment= (Cost of machine+Salvage value)/2

= $600,000+$120,000/2

= $720,000/2

= $360,000

Therefore, the accounting rate of return can be calculated as follows

= Annual net income/Average investment

= $23,000/$360,000

= 0.0639×100

= 6.39%

Hence the accounting rate of return is 6.39%

Answers

Answer:

A.) $4,545 b) $5,430 c) $885

Explanation:

Given the following :

Number of shares purchased = 300

Cost per share = $15.15

Total initial investment :

Number of shares purchased * cost per share

300 * $15.15 = $4,545

B)

Total amount received when he sold his shares :

Amount at which shares was sold = $18.10 per share

Therefore,

Total amount received :

$18.10 * 300 = $5,430

C.)

Profit made on investment :

Amount received when shares was sold - total initial investment

$5,430 - $4,545

= $885

c.
Consumption expenditures 4,300
Investment 1,000
Government purchases 1,000
Net exports 6
Tax collections 1,575
Government transfers and interest payments 500

Answers

Answer:

a.  Public saving = Tax collections - Government purchases - Transfers and interest payments

=195 - 160 - 110

= -75

Private saving = Household saving + business saving

= 200 + 400

= 600

National saving = Private saving + public saving  

= 600-75

= 525

National saving rate = National saving/GDP

= 525/2500

=0.21

= 21%

b. Private sector disposable income = GDP - Taxes + Transfers

= 6150 - 1425 + 400

= 5125

Private sector savings = Disposable income - consumption

= 5125 - 4520

= 605

Public savings = Govt budget surplus = 100

National savings = Private savings + Govt savings

= 605 + 100

= 705

National savings rate = National savings / GDP

= 705 / 6,150

= 0.1146

=11.46%

c. GDP = Consumption + investment + Government purchase + Net Export

= 4,300 + 1,000 + 1,000 + 6

= 6,306

Govt savings = Taxes - Transfers - Govt purchases

= 1,575 - 500 - 1,000

= 75

Private sector disposable income = GDP - Taxes + Transfers

= 6,306 - 1,575 + 500

= 5,231

Private sector savings = Disposable income - consumption

= 5,231 - 4,300

= 931

National savings = Private savings + Government savings

= 931 + 75

= 1,006

National savings rate = National savings / GDP

= 1,006 / 6,306

=0.1595

= 15.95%

A. Public saving =-75, Private saving, National saving= 525, National saving rate=21% B. Private sector disposable income=5125,C. GDP= 6,306, Govt savings=75

Calculation of Gross domestic product

A.  Public saving is = Tax collections - Government purchases - Transfers and also interest payments

Then =195 - 160 - 110

= -75

After that Private saving is = Household saving + business saving

= 200 + 400

Thus, = 600

Then National saving is = Private saving + public saving  

= 600-75

Therefore, = 525

After that National saving rate = National saving/GDP

= 525/2500

=0.21

Thus, = 21%

B. Private sector disposable income is = GDP - Taxes + Transfers

= 6150 - 1425 + 400

= 5125

After that Private sector savings = Disposable income - consumption

= 5125 - 4520

= 605

Then Public savings = Govt budget surplus = 100

National savings = Private savings + Govt savings

= 605 + 100

= 705

Now, National savings rate = National savings / GDP

= 705 / 6,150

= 0.1146

=11.46%

C. GDP is = Consumption + investment + Government purchase + Net Export

Then = 4,300 + 1,000 + 1,000 + 6

= 6,306

After that Govt savings = Taxes - Transfers - Govt purchases

= 1,575 - 500 - 1,000

= 75

Now, Private sector disposable income = GDP - Taxes + Transfers

= 6,306 - 1,575 + 500

= 5,231

Then Private sector savings = Disposable income - consumption

= 5,231 - 4,300

= 931

Now, National savings = Private savings + Government savings

= 931 + 75

= 1,006

Then National savings rate = National savings / GDP

= 1,006 / 6,306

=0.1595

Therefore, = 15.95%

Answers

Answer:

Standard Time = 206.6 secs

Explanation:

In order to calculate the time for this task if the employee worked at a 32 percent slower pace than average, we need to calculate the normal time first by using the following formula

Normal Time = Average element-time / performance rating

Average element time = Sum of observations / No. of observations

Average element time  = 109 +117 +117 +128 +125 +129 / 6

Average element time = 725/6 = 120.83

Performance rating = 100 - 32 = 68%

Normal Time = 120.83 / 0.68 = 177.7 secs

Standard Time = Normal Time / (1-Allowance)

Standard Time = 177.7 / (1-0.14)

Standard Time = 206.6 secs

Portfolio managers pick stocks for their clients’ portfolios based on the investment objective of the portfolio and several other factors. One key consideration is each stock’s contribution to portfolio risk and its statistical relationship with the portfolio’s other stocks. Based on your understanding of portfolio risk, identify whether each statement is true or false.

Answers

Answer:

False True True False

Explanation:

First one is false because diversification reduces risk because it divides the risk amongst different securities. The portfolio risk will therefore be lower than the average of all stocks' standard deviations.

Second one is true because unsystematic risk is risk that will come with the type of stock or security purchased. It is usually referred to as diversifiable risk because using negatively correlated stocks can help diversify this risk.

Third one is True because the portfolio's risk when diversified is indeed likely to be smaller than the average of all stocks' standard deviation.

Fourth one is false because portfolio risk is reduced if stock that are negatively correlated are put into a portfolio because it means that when one stock is not doing so well, the other being negatively correlated, will be doing fine.

Suppose output is $35 billion, government purchases are $10 billion, desired consumption is $15 billion, and desired investment is $6 billion. Net foreign lending would be equal to

Answers

Answer:

Net foreign lending would be equal to $4 billion.

Explanation:

This can be computed using the formula for computing the total output of an open economy as follows:

Y = C + G + I + NX .................................. (1)

Where;

Y = Total Output = $35 billion

C = Desired consumption = $15 billion

G = Government purchases = $10 billion

I = Desired investment = $6 billion

NX = Net foreign lending = ?

Substituting the values into equation (1) and solve for NX, we have:

$35 = $15 + $10 + $6 + NX

$35 - $15 - $10 - $6 = NX

NX = $4 billion

Therefore, net foreign lending would be equal to $4 billion.

If political influences, independent of any economic forces, lead to a larger government budget deficit, what will be the effect on the loanable funds market

The government budget deficit will cause the interest rate to rise, reducing both saving and investment.

suppose a German company issues a bond with a par value of €1,000, 23 years to maturity, and a coupon rate of 3.8 percent paid annually. If the yield to maturity is 4.7 percent, what is the current price of the bond? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Answers

Answer:

Price of bond = €875.09

Explanation:

The value of the bond is the present value(PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV).

Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV

The value of bond would  be worked out as follows:

Step 1  

Calculate the PV of interest payments

Annual interest payment

= 3.8% × 1,000 = 38

PV of interest payment = A ×(1- (1+r)^(-n))/r

r- annual yield = 4.7%

n- 23

PV of interest payment= 38 × (1-(1.047^(-23)/0.047 =  €527.37

Step 2

PV of redemption Value

PV = RV × (1+r)^(-n)

PV = 1,000  × (1.047)^(-23)  = €347.717

Step 3

Price of bond

=  527.37+  347.717 = €875.09

Price of bond = €875.09

ou have a $4 million portfolio consisting of a $100,000 investment in each of 20 different stocks. The portfolio has a beta of 1.1. You are considering selling $100,000 worth of one stock with a beta of 0.9 and using the proceeds to purchase another stock with a beta of 1.4. What will the portfolio’s new beta be after these transactions? Show your work

Answers

Answer: 1.108

Explanation:

You have $4 million invested.

You would like to divest $100,000 from a stock with beta 0.9 to the tune of $100,000.

The entire portfolio has a beta of 1.1.

This beta is an average of all the betas in the portfolio.

Proportion of Portfolio to be divested = [tex]\frac{100,000}{4,000,000}[/tex]

= 0.025

Beta of stock to be divested expressed as;

= 0.025 * 1.1

= 0.0275

This will be reinvested in a stock with beta 1.4

Beta of stock to be bought expressed as;

= 0.025 * 1.4

= 0.035

New beta

= 1.1 - 0.0275 + 0.035

= 1.108

A stock has a beta of 1.15, the expected return on the market is 10.3 percent, and the risk-free rate is 3.8 percent. What must the expected return on this stock be

Answers

Answer:

11.28%

Explanation:

A stock has a beta of 1.15

The expected return on the market is 10.3%

The risk-free rate is 3.8%

Therefore, the expected return on the stock can be calculated as follows

Expected return= Risk-free rate+beta(expected return on the market-risk-free rate)

= 3.8%+1.15(10.3%-3.8%)

= 3.8%+(1.15×6.5)

= 3.8%+7.475

= 11.28%

Hence the expected return on the stock is 11.28%

Answers

Answer:

Pelican​ Paper, Inc., and Timberland​ Forest, Inc.

Financial leverage and profitability ratios:

a) Debt Ratio = Total liabilities divided by Total assets x 100

Pelican = $1,000,000/$10,900,000 x 100

= 9.2%

Timberland = $5,500,000/$10,900,000 x 100

= 50%

Times Interest Earned Ratio = EBIT/Interest Expense

Pelican = $5,750,000/$100,000

= 57.5 times

Timberland = $5,750,000/$550,000

= 10.4 times

A discussion of their financial risk and ability to cover the costs in relation to each other:

C. ​Timberland's earnings will be more volatile. This additional risk is supported by the significantly lower times interest earned ratio of Timberland. Pelican can face a very large reduction in net income and still be able to cover its interest expense.

a. Using the starting point formula, what is the price elasticity of demand for going from a price of $160 per unit to a price of $140 per unit

Answers

Answer:

Price Elasticity of Demand is -4

Explanation:

We can see the graph and easily calculate the Q1 which is 120 units at P1 $140 and Q2 which is 80 units at P2 $160 price.

The starting point formula for calculating price elasticity of demand is given as under:

Price Elasticity of Demand = (ΔQ / Q2)  /  (ΔP / P2)

Here

ΔQ = Q1 - Q2 = 120 - 80 = 40 units

ΔP = P1  -  P2 = 140 - 160 =   - $20

By putting value in the above equation, we have:

Price Elasticity of Demand = (40 Units / 80 Units)  /  (-$20 / $160)

Price Elasticity of Demand = -4

Price Elasticity of Demand is -4

Calculation of the price elasticity of demand:

Since in the graph it is mentioned that  Q1 which is 120 units at P1 $140 and Q2 which is 80 units at P2 $160 price.

So we know that

Price Elasticity of Demand = (ΔQ / Q2)  /  (ΔP / P2)

where

ΔQ = Q1 - Q2 = 120 - 80 = 40 units

ΔP = P1  -  P2 = 140 - 160 =   - $20

Now

Price Elasticity of Demand

= (40 Units / 80 Units)  /  (-$20 / $160)

= -4

Identify the number of fims present, the type of product, and the appropriate market model in the following scenario.
In a small town, there are four providers of broadband Internet access: a cable company the phone company, and two satellite companies. The Internet access offered by all four providers is of the same speed. Almost everyone in the city already has broadband, so any potential new company would have to engage in a price war with the existing companies and would be unlikely to cover its costs for years, if ever.

Answers

Answer:

No of Firms Present - 4 firms / few firms

Type of Product - Standadized Product

All the companies are offering a standadized product of broadband Internet access of the same speed.

Appropriate Market Model - Oligopoly

An Oligopoly is a concentrated market structure where a few firms dominate the market and offer the same products. Gaining entrance into this type of market is considered hard as the existing firms are already very entrenched and dislodging them will require a huge cash outlay. The Broadband internet market in this town is therefore an Oligopoly.
