You are the manager of a firm that manufactures front and rear windshields for the automobile industry. Due to economies of scale in the industry, entry by new firms is not profitable. Toyota has asked your company and your only rival to simultaneously submit a price quote for supplying 100,000 front and rear windshields for its newest version of the Highlander. If both you and your rival submit a low price, each firm supplies 50,000 front and rear windshields and earns a zero profit. If one firm quotes a low price and the other a high price, the low-price firm supplies 100,000 front and rear windshields and earns a profit of $11 million and the high-price firm supplies no windshields and loses $2 million. If both firms quote a high price, each firm supplies 50,000 front and rear windshields and earns a $6 million profit. 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. 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.

Answers

Answer 1

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].

Adkins Bakery uses the modified half-month convention to calculate depreciation expense in the year an asset is purchased or sold. Adkins has a calendar year accounting period and uses the straight-line method to compute depreciation expense. On March 17, 2018, Adkins acquired equipment at a cost of $220,000. The equipment has a residual value of $43,000 and an estimated useful life of 4 years. What amount of depreciation expense will be recorded for the year ending December 31, 2018

Answers

Answer:

Depreciation expense= $36,875

Explanation:

Under the straight line method of depreciation, the cost of an asset less the salvage value is spread equally over the expected useful life.

An equal amount is charged as annual depreciation over the life of the asset. The annual depreciation is calculated as follows:

Annual depreciation:  

= (cost of assets - salvage value)/ Estimated useful life

Cost - 220,000

Residual value = 43,000

Estimated useful life = 4 years

Annual depreciation = (220,000- 43,000)/4 =44,250

Annual depreciation = 44,250.

Under the half-month convention, a full month depreciation is charged where an asset is first put to at the middle month of the month.

Thus March 17, 2018 to December 2018 is taken to be 10 full months

Depreciation expense = 44,250.× 10/12 = 36,875

Depreciation expense= $36,875

You expect to receive a payout from a trust fund in 3 years. The payout will be for $10,200. You plan to invest the money at an annual rate of 6.2 percent until the account is worth $17,800. How many years do you have to wait from today

Answers

Answer:

n= 12.25 years

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Present value= $10,200

Future value= $17,800

Interest rate= 6.2%

First, we need to calculate the number of years it will take the investment to reach $17,80. We need to use the following formula:

n= ln(FV/PV) / ln(1+i)  

n= ln(17,800/10,200) / ln(1.062)

n= 9.25 years

Now, the total number of years:

n= 9.25 + 3

n= 12.25 years

Bryant Company has a factory machine with a book value of $93,100 and a remaining useful life of 5 years. It can be sold for $27,200. A new machine is available at a cost of $430,400. This machine will have a 5-year useful life with no salvage value. The new machine will lower annual variable manufacturing costs from $592,600 to $505,500. Prepare an analysis showing whether the old machine should be retained or replaced.

Answers

Answer:

The old machine should be replaced.

Explanation:

Note: See the attached excel file for the the analysis showing whether the old machine should be retained or replaced.

From the attached excel file, the following calculation are made:

Variable Manufacturing cost of Retain = Initial Variable Manufacturing cost * remaining useful life of old machine = $592,600 * 5 = $2,963,000

Variable Manufacturing cost of Replace = New Variable Manufacturing cost * Remaining useful life of new machine = $505,500 * 5 = $2,527,500

From the attached excel, it can be observed that the total cost of Retain is $32,200 higher than the total cost of Replace. This therefore implies that the old machine should be replaced.

Answer:

Correct words to finish the sentences:

Fish in the ocean can be caught by anyone, and it is difficult to prevent people from fishing, in this sense, fish in the oceans are__non-excludable___.

If I catch a fish, that means there is one less fish in the sea for someone else to catch. Therefore, fish are__rivalrous___.

Considering those two characteristics, fish in the ocean are_common goods___.

Explanation:

The two key characteristics of a public good are: it is non-excludable and non-rivalrous.  A common good is non-excludable but rivalrous. A private good is excludable and rivalrous.  A club good is excludable and non-rivalrous.

Non-excludable refers to goods that are costly and impossible for a person to exclude other users from using the goods.

Non-rivalrous good refers to goods that a person can use without preventing others from using the goods.

A reserve clause binds a professional athlete to a sports franchise even if the player does not have a contract with the team that retains the rights to the player. In other words, the player can only play for a single team and other teams may not bid for the player's services even in the absence of a contract. Major League Baseball was forced to outlaw reserve clauses in 1975. As a result of the ban, we would expect that

Answers

Answer: D. players in the major leagues would be paid more than their marginal product.

Explanation:

When the reserve clause was in effect, a team that had the rights to a player could pay the player what they wanted or at least according to their marginal product depending on how good they were without having to worry about other teams offering more money to the player because they could just decide not to let the player go.

When this clause was removed, this changed. Other teams could bid for players so bidding wars allowed major league players to make more money from either their team which would be forced to increase their salaries, or from other teams who would entice the players to move with higher salaries. This led to major league players being paid more than their marginal product.

Carey Company had sales in 2016 of $1,560,000 on 60,000 units. Variable costs totaled $900,000, and fixed costs totaled $500,000. A new raw material is available that will decrease the variable costs per unit by 20% (or $3). However, to process the new raw material, fixed operating costs will increase by $100,000. Management feels that one-half of the decline in the variable costs per unit should be passed on to customers in the form of a sales price reduction. The marketing department expects that this sales price reduction will result in a 5% increase in the number of units sold.
(a) Prepare a projected CVP income statement for 2017, assuming the changes have not been made, and
(b) assuming that changes are made as described.

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Selling price per unit= 1,560,000 / 60,000= $26

Unitary variable cost= 900,000 / 60,000= $15

Fixed costs= $500,000.

First, the income statement without the changes:

Sales= 1,560,000

Total varaible cost= (900,000)

Contribution margin= 660,000

Total fixed costs= (500,000)

Net operating income= 160,000

Now, with the changes:

Unitary variable cost= (15*0.8)= 12

Selling price= 26 - 1.5= $24.5

Sales in units= 60,000*1.05= 63,000

Fixed costs= 500,000 + 100,000= $600,000

Sales= 24.5*63,000= 1,543,500

Total variable cost= (12*63,000)= (756,000)

Total contribution margin= 787,500

Fixed costs= (600,000)

Net operating income= 187,500

Old Economy Traders opened an account to short-sell 1,300 shares of Internet Dreams at $46 per share. The initial margin requirement was 50%. (The margin account pays no interest.) A year later, the price of Internet Dreams has risen from $46 to $59, and the stock has paid a dividend of $3.50 per share. a. What is the remaining margin in the account? (Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar.)

Answers

Answer: $8450

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the total initial asset which will be the value of shares sold and the margin which will be:

= (1300 × $46) + (50% × 1300 × $46)

= $59800 + $29900

= $89700

We will then calculate total liability which will be:

= (1300 × $59) + (1300 × $3.50)

= $76700 + $4550

= $81250

The remaining margin will then be:

= $89700 - $81250

= $8450

To evaluate this offer, Troy Engines, Ltd., has gathered the following information relating to its own cost of producing the carburetor internally:
Per Unit 21,000 Units
Per Year
Direct materials $ 14 $ 294,000
Direct labor 12 252,000
Variable manufacturing overhead 2 42,000
Fixed manufacturing overhead, traceable 9 * 189,000
Fixed manufacturing overhead, allocated 12 252,000
Total cost $ 49 $ 1,029,000
Required:
1. Assuming the company has no alternative use for the facilities that are now being used to produce the carburetors, what would be the financial advantage (disadvantage) of buying 17,000 carburetors from the outside supplier?
2. Should the outside supplier’s offer be accepted?
3. Suppose that if the carburetors were purchased, Troy Engines, Ltd., could use the freed capacity to launch a new product. The segment margin of the new product would be $170,000 per year.

The new machine will not increase sales, but will decrease operating costs by $9,000 per year. Simplified straight line depreciation is employed for both machines, and the marginal corporate tax rate is 34 percent. What is the incremental annual cash flow associated with the project

Answers

Answer:

$6,779

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the incremental annual cash flow associated with the project

First step is to calculate the depreciation

Depreciation=[($64,000/6 years)-($82,000/10 years)

Depreciation=$10,667-$8,200

Depreciation=$2,467

Now let calculate the Incremental annual cash flow

Incremental annual cash flow ={($9,000-$2,467)

-[($9,000-$2,467)*34%]+$2,467}

Incremental annual cash flow =[($6,533-$2,221)+$2,467]

Incremental annual cash flow =$4,312+$2,467

Incremental annual cash flow=$6,779

Therefore the incremental annual cash flow associated with the project is $6,779

The appropriate sentence that Maria should include in her adjustment message will be that "You can use the enclosed voucher to purchase a new product of your choice".

This will help calm the customer down and the customer will be happy to know that she can make another purchase with the voucher.

Other options such as "I wasn't personally responsible for the defect, but I'll see what I can do", and "Perhaps your child did something to the toy to cause it to stop working" will make the customer angrier.

Therefore, the correct option is C.

Answers

Answer:

a. The Federal Reserve can reduce the interest rates to stimulate greater output and employment. The federal government can increase government spending to help ease the recession.

The Fed can reduce interest rates by engaging in expansionary monetary policy that would then make it easier to borrow funds for investment. The Federal government can also increase spending as this will put more money into the economy to help it start moving again.

b. If both monetary and fiscal policy are used, the MP curve will shift downward, and the IS curve will shift to the right. Both shifts will increase income.

If both monetary and fiscal policy are used, companies will start producing again and hiring more people which will shift the Marginal Productivity curve downward. The IS curve will also shift to the right and both to these are indicators of an increase in income.

For example, buying a chocolate bar and eating it may satisfy your cravings but eating another one wouldn't give you as much satisfaction as the first due to diminishing marginal utility.

Jensen Automotive produces alternators for American-made cars. They generally use a static budget with the following costs based on 8,000 units per month: indirect materials, $22,000; indirect labor, $25,000; utilities, $12,000; supervision, $4,000; depreciation, $18,000. If Jensen wanted to create a flexible budget for 9,000 units, what value would they record for variable costs

Answers

Answer:

the value that should be recorded for variable cost is $66,375

Explanation:

The computation of the value that should be recorded for variable cost is shown below:

= Total variable cost ÷ budgeted units × flexible budget units

= ($22,000 + $25,000 + $12,000) ÷ 8,000 units × 9,000 units

= $59,000 ÷ 8,000 units × 9,000 units

= $66,375

hence, the value that should be recorded for variable cost is $66,375

The above formula is used
