A competitive firm should not continue to produce if it is consistently losing money, as this is not a sustainable business model. The firm should instead focus on reducing costs and increasing revenue in order to become profitable.
What is competitive firm?A competitive firm is a business that operates in a market with many other firms that offer similar products or services. These firms are in competition with one another for customers and market share. They typically have similar production methods and face similar market conditions, such as similar input prices and similar technology.
In a perfectly competitive market, firms are price takers, meaning they cannot influence the market price of their product or service. They must accept the market price and make production decisions based on that price. However, in imperfectly competitive markets, firms have some degree of pricing power, meaning they can influence the price they charge. In these markets, firms may engage in non-price competition, such as advertising, to differentiate their products and gain an advantage over their rivals.
The goal of a competitive firm is to maximize profits by producing at the lowest possible cost and charging the highest possible price. They have to be efficient and innovative to survive in the market and have to respond quickly to changes in demand, technology and competition.

The 2018 balance sheet of Speith’s Golf Shop, Inc., showed long-term debt of $5 million, and the 2019 balance sheet showed long-term debt of $5.25 million. The 2019 income statement showed an interest expense of $165,000. The 2018 balance sheet showed $510,000 in the common stock account and $4.6 million in the additional paid-in surplus account. The 2019 balance sheet showed $550,000 and $4.8 million in the same two accounts, respectively. The company paid out $410,000 in cash dividends during 2019. Suppose you also know that the firm’s net capital spending for 2019 was $1,370,000, and that the firm reduced its net working capital investment by $69,000. What was the firm's 2019 operating cash flow, or OCF?
Answer:
$1,386,000
Explanation:
The computation of the operating cash flow is shown below:
But before that following calculations must be done
Cash Flow to Creditors
Cash Flow to Creditors = Interest Expenses Paid - Net Increase in Long term debt
= Interest Expenses Paid - [Ending Long term debt - BEginning Long term Debt]
= $165,000 - [$5,250,000 - $5,000,000]
= $165,000 - $250,000
= -$85,000
Cash Flow to Stockholders
Cash Flow to Stockholders = Dividend Paid - Net New Equity
= Dividend Paid - [(Ending Common stock + Ending Additional paid-in surplus account ) - (Opening Common stock + OPening Additional paid-in surplus account )
= $410,000 - [($550,000 + $4,800,000) - ($510,000 + $4,6000,000)]
= $410,000 - [$5,350,000 - $5,110,000]
= $410,000 - $240,000
= $170,000
Cash Flow from assets
Cash Flow from assets = Cash Flow to Creditors + Cash Flow to Stockholders
= -$85,000 + $170,000
= $85,000
Operating Cash Flow
= Operating Cash flows - Change in Net Working capital - Net Capital Spending
$85,000 = Operating cash flow - (-$69,000) - $1,370,000
= $85,000 - $69,000 + $13,70,000
= $1,386,000
Manufacturing overhead was estimated to be $249,600 for the year along with 20,800 direct labor hours. Actual manufacturing overhead was $219,000, and actual labor hours were 21,900. The amount debited to the Manufacturing Overhead account would be: Multiple Choice $219,000. $249,600. $233,000. $262,800.
Answer:
Debit to manufacturing overhead= $262,800
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 249,600/20,800
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $12 per direct labor hour
Now, we can allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 12*21,900
Allocated MOH= $262,800
Debit to manufacturing overhead= $262,800

Consider two neighboring island countries called Euphoria and Contente. They each have 4 million labor hours available per week that they can use to produce corn, jeans, or a combination of both. The following table shows the amount of corn or jeans that can be produced using 1 hour of labor.
Country Corn (Bushels per hour of labor) Jeans (Pairs per hour of labor)
Euphoria 4 16
Contente 6 12
Initially, suppose Contente uses 1 million hours of labor per week to produce jeans and 3 million hours per week to produce corn, while Euphoria uses 3 million hours of labor per week to produce jeans and 1 million hours per week to produce corn. Consequently, Euphoria produces 12 million pairs of jeans and 16 million bushels of corn, and Contente produces 6 million pairs of jeans and 36 million bushels of corn. Assume there are no other countries willing to trade goods, so, in the absence of trade between these two countries, each country consumes the amount of jeans and corn it produces.
Euphoria's opportunity cost of producing 1 bushel of corn is___________ pair of jeans, and Contente's opportunity cost of producing 1 bushel of corn is__________ pair of jeans. Therefore,___________ has a comparative advantage in the production of corn, and__________ has a comparative advantage in the production of jeans.
Answer:
4
2
Contente
Euphoria
Explanation:
Euphoria's opportunity cost of producing 1 bushel of corn is [tex]\frac{16}{4}[/tex] = 4 pair of jeans, and Contente's opportunity cost of producing 1 bushel of corn is [tex]\frac{12}{6}[/tex] = 2 pair of jeans. Therefore, Contente has a comparative advantage in the production of corn, and Euphoria has a comparative advantage in the production of jeans.

Nper = 30*12 = 360
Rate = 10%/12 = 0.008333
PV = 650,000
Using the MS Excel function:
Monthly payment = PMT(RATE, NPER, -PV)
Monthly payment = PMT(10%/12, 360, -650000)
Monthly payment = $5,704.02
Consider the following game in extensive form: The King of Siam has many enemies who would like to poison him. His Highness seeks a Royal Taster to taste his food before He eats. The King generously offers a wage w < 10 to anyone who will take the job. The going wage for labor in Siam is w0. The values his life at 10. His Enemies value his death at 10 also, and poisoning attempts cost 5.
Stage 1: The King chooses to Hire or Not Hire a Taster at wage w.
Stage 2: The Enemies choose to Poison or Not Poison.
The game tree with moves and payoffs is as follows:
a. Write down the strategies for Players 1 (King) and 2 (Enemies). Write down the Normal form of the game
b. Find the Nash equilibria of the game.
c. Use Backward Induction to solve the game.
d. Will the King need to offer a wage greater than the going wage wo to attract a willing taster? Why or why not
Solution :
a). The normal form in the game is given below as :
The King
The Enemies Hire Not hire
To Poison (-5, 10-w) (5, 0)
Not to Poison (0, 10-w) (0, 10)
b). For the enemies there is no such dominant strategy and the king also does not have any dominant strategy. Therefore, there is no pure strategy of Nash equilibrium.
c). The backward induction helps to suggest that there is a spine for the game when the king hires a Royal taster and the enemies do not poisons the king : (Hire, Not poison).
d). Yes the king needs to offer a wage that is greater than going wage, [tex]$w_0$[/tex] in order to attract the willing taster as the value of the life of his more.
Which of the following scenarios illustrates the law of demand?
A. A research company finds that the more expensive a particular brand of a designer handbag, the more that consumers are willing to purchase the brand.
B. Kathleen eats more steak when the price is low, and less when the price is high.
C. Francis does not care about the price of coffee at the coffee shop – he must buy two cappuccinos every day, regardless of the price.
D. John likes to drink spring water. At $2 he buys four bottles of water, and at $1.50 he still buys four bottles of water.
Answer:
Option B is correct.
Explanation:
In order to answer this question correctly, we first need to understand the law of demands.
Law of demands: It says that the relationship of price and quantity demanded is inversely proportional. It means if the price of a particular product goes high, then the quantity of demand will be reduced. Similarly, if the price of the product is low then the quantity of demanded will be higher.
Here,
Option B is the most relevant to the Law of Demand which says that Kathleen eats more steak when the price is low. It means when the price is low, the quantity of steak demanded is higher in Kathleen's case. Furthermore, Kathleen eats less when the price is high. It means, when the price of steak is higher then the quantity of steak demanded from Kathleen is low.
Hence, Option B is the correct option which fulfills the law of demand.

In 1880 five aboriginal trackers were each promised the equivalent of 100 Australian dollars for helping to capture the notorious outlaw Ned Kelley. In 2002 the granddaughters of two of the trackers claimed that this reward had not been paid. The Victorian prime minister stated that if this was true, the government would be happy to pay the $100. However, the granddaughters also claimed that they were entitled to compound interest.
Required:
a. How much was each granddaughter entitled to if the interest rate was 4%?
b. How much was each entitled to if the interest rate was 8%?
Answer:
A. $11,969.3
B. $1,195,909.1
Explanation:
a. Calculation for How much was each granddaughter entitled to if the interest rate was 4%
First step is to calculate the Time period
Time period=2002-1880
Time period=122 years
Now let calculate the Future value using this formula
Future value=PV(1+r)^122 years
Let plug in the formula
Future value=$100(1+0.04)^122 years
Future value=$100(1.04)^122 years
Future value=$11,969.3
Therefore How much was each granddaughter entitled to if the interest rate was 4% will be $11,969.3
b. Calculation for How much was each entitled to if the interest rate was 8%
First step is to calculate the Time period
Time period=2002-1880
Time period=122 years
Now let calculate the Future value using this formula
Future value=PV(1+r)^122 years
Let plug in the formula
Future value=$100(1+0.08)^122 years
Future value=$100(1.08)^122 years
Future value=$1,195,909.1
Therefore How much was each entitled to if the interest rate was 8% will be $1,195,909.1
Quantitative Problem: Jenna is a single taxpayer. During 2018, she earned wages of $113,000. She doesn't itemize deductions, so she will take the standard deduction to calculate 2018 taxable income. In addition, during the year she sold common stock that she had owned for five years for a net profit of $5,200. How much does Jenna owe to the IRS for taxes
Solution :
Item Amount
Income $113,000
Personal exemption for one $ 4,050
Standard deduction $ 6,350
Taxable income $102,600
Therefore the taxable income is $102,600.
Now the tax payable on the taxable income is given by :
Marginal tax rate Amount brackets
10% $0 - $ 9,325
15% $ 9,326 - $ 37,950
25% $ 37,951 -$ 91,900
28% $ 91,901 - $ 191,650
Now according to the above taxable slab, the amount of tax on the wages earned by Jenna is :
Tax payable = [tex]$= (0.1 \times 9325)+(0.15 \times (37950 - 9325))+(0.25 \times (91900 - 37950))+(0.28 \times (102600-91900))$[/tex][tex]$= (0.1 \times 9325)+(0.15 \times 28625)+(0.25 \times 53950)+(0.28 \times 10700)$[/tex]
= 932.5 + 4293.75 + 13487.50 + 2996
= $ 21,709.75
There is also a long term capital gain of $ 5,200 that is earned by selling the common stock.
Now as per IRS, the capital gain of a long term tax percentage for an individual single filer is in 28% tax slab category is 15%.
Therefore the tax on the capital gain of $ 5,200 is = 0.15 x 5200
= $780
Thus the total tax payable by Jenna is = $ 21,709.75 + $ 780
= $ 22,489.75

Answer:
Dr Work in process inventory 2,800
Dr Factory overhead 600
Cr Raw material inventory 3,400
Explanation:
Work in process = $900 + $1,200 + $700 = $2,800
Factory overhead (supplies) is the same, $600
inventory decrease = WIP + supplies = $2,800 + $600 = $3,400
The Dieker Company will keep track of the production's raw materials on January 31. The final journal entry will read like this:
Dr Work in process inventory 2,800
Dr Factory overhead 600
Cr Raw material inventory 3,400
Work in process = $900 + $1,200 + $700
Work in process = $2,800
Factory overhead (supplies) is the same, $600
Inventory decrease = WIP + supplies
Inventory decrease = $2,800 + $600
Inventory decrease = $3,400
The same amount will be credited to the account for raw materials inventory, reducing the balance of the account to represent the raw materials utilized in production.

2. How is CrudeOil violating its core value of treating oth-
ers with respect? What are some ways it could reincor-m
porate this core value into its organizational culture??
Answer:
1. Describe the organizational culture at CrudeOil. How does it contribute to the current situation?
Jim treated all of the employees with intimidating behavior based on productivity levels and not moral or ethical concepts. His leadership style is coercive and demands immediate compliance. If this style were summed up in one phrase, it would be "Do what I tell you." In my opinion, it should be avoided because it can alienate employees and create a hostile work environment.
2. How is CrudeOil violating its core value of treating others with respect?
What are some ways it could reincorporate this core value into its organizational culture? “The company’s core value is to treat everyone with respect”. Employees and supervisors, in my experiences, often treat colleagues in harsh and unethical manners only as far as the victim allows it to happen.

This is some of it

Answer:
$6673
$14,533.50
$421,256.38
$234,243.36
Explanation:
The formula for determining future value is :
The formula for calculating future value:
FV = P (1 + r)^n
FV = Future value
P = Present value
R = interest rate
N = number of years
$1,800 x (1.14)^10 = $6673
$7,852 x (1.08)^8 = $14,533.50
$67,355 x (1.13)^15 = $421,256.38
$174,796 x (1.05)^6 = $234,243.36

A man with $20,000 to invest decides to diversify his investments by placing $10,000 in an account that earns 5.2% compounded continuously and $10,000 in an account that earns 6.4% compounded annually. Use graphical approximation methods to determine how long it will take for his total investment in the two accounts to grow to $35,000. It will take approximately nothing years for his
Answer:
9.749 years
Explanation:
Given that :
Principal, P = 20,000
Total investment A = 35000
Investment 1:
P = $10,000
Compounded continuously at r = 5.2% = 0.052
A = Pe^rt
Investment B:
P = $10,000
Compounded annually at r = 6.4% = 0.064
A = P(1 + r)^t
Hence, final amount, A on both investment = 35000
A = Pe^rt + P(1 + r)^t
35000 = 10000e^0.052t + 10000(1 + 0.064)^t
Divide through by 10000
3.5 = e^0.052t + 1.064^t
t = 9.749123
t = 9.749 years
