Answer to Question #6991 in Economics of Enterprise for LaMarcus Streeter




 5. Affleck Inc.&#039;s business is booming, and it needs to raise more capital. The company purchases supplies on terms of 1/10 net 20, and it currently takes the discount. One way of getting the needed funds would be to forgo the discount, and the firm&#039;s owner believes she could delay payment to 40 days without adverse effects. What would be the effective annual percentage cost of funds raised by this action? (Assume a 365-day year.)  

  

a. 10.59%  

b. 11.15%  

c. 11.74%  

d. 12.36%  

e. 13.01%

about 10% lower than swes at google. which is still way higher than want asic companies pay. no minimum, there was a annual review part on tesla channel recently and off the numbers i saw without promotion, increments varied between 2.5 to 10 percent the discover it chrome's intro offer for balance transfers is 0% apr for 14 months.
for any balance transfer posted to your account until april 10, 2021 you get a promotional apr of 0% for 14 months from first date of transfer.
after the intro apr period expires, your regular transfer apr could be 11.99% - 22.99% variable.
keep in mind, though, that this card has a 3% intro balance transfer fee, up to 5% fee on future balance transfers (see terms)* balance transfer fee! my rule of thumb is ideally >20% (the higher the better), though there are exceptions if you're about to price yourself out of the market or there are other benefits to working at the new firm (e.g. employee benefits are better, the work is not fulfilling, better client alignment, etc). i wouldn't accept a pay cut, though.

Hello Max,


There is a little typo on the solution. In a warmer winter you will have gas consumption reduced by 10%, that implies a reduction of 10% of sales and variable costs (the hypothesis is to consider them linearly dependant).


Talink about the Infrastructure costs, they are composed by fixed (60%) and variable(40%) costs. Applying the saving on the variable part you have:


240*40%*10%=9.6  

  

So that the new Infrastructure costs will be 240-9.6=230.4  

  

Does it make sense?  

Feel free to contact me if you have any doubt.  

  

Luca answer: (3) recognition of costs associated with the acquisition of the fixed assets on the income statement. none of the costs associated with the acquisition of the fixed assets (mowing equipment and truck) have been recognized as expenses on the income statement.the fixed assets of the business provide benefits to the company and its users over its economic lite. depreciation allocates the cost of long-term fixed assets to expense over its useful/ economic lite. the benefit provided by the company during the period should be recognized as an expense in that period.the recognition of depreciation expense on the income statement will result in reducing the net income. please find the attached solution in doc file. it all varies depending on the team.if you’re close to production, pressure is high. outside of this there are a lot of variation, but in general people are working a lot. this is not really that there are explicit pressure to work long hours but many are very committed , and i think that when you are joining a team you’re more likely to pick up the same rythme.in terms of compensation, it depends on the role / the team and how much they want you after the on-site, but they will in general align on other offers you may have (from google/fb/apple/amazon/...) hi,

lots of great explanations below, but i fear they might be difficult to truly conceptualize. 

let's start with a pie!

if there's a pie in front of us, that is the market. we'll call it 100 units of pie

we cut the pie in half - one piece (50 pie units) for you, and one piece (50 pie units) for me

scenario 1: we do nothing, we both have 50% market share.

scenario 2: i eat half my pie. my pie slice is now 25 units, yours is still 50 units. as a result, you have 67% of the market share and i have 33%. my "revenues" have fallen and my market share has fallen. your revenues haven't changed but you've gained market share

scenario 3: not only do i eat half my pie, but you also eat 20% of yours. still, i ate more, so even though your "revenues" are down, you've still gained market share.

scenario 4: we both get given more pie (yay). but, i get a whole other 50 units, and you only get 5 more. your "revenues" are up, but you've still lost market share!

i've created the below image for you to visualize this better (click on it to blow it up)...hope this helps! in 1996, a key decision was made to lower the rack rate significantly, adjust sales mix, and reduce the number of special companies (those with specially negotiated, discounted rates) from 200 down to just 20. 
在1996年, 他們做出重大的決定, 包括大大降低住房定價 (rack rate 指的是飯店未打折前的表定房價, 通常遠高於實際售價), 調整銷售組合, 以及將特約公司的數量 (享有特殊議價及折扣價格的公司) 由200家減少至20家.

this has lead to an increase of ￡4.00 in the average room rate achieved, even though the rack rate is ￡10.00 lower. 
即便是我們將房間定價降低10英鎊, 也能促使平均房價增加4英鎊,.

the aim is to establish what the manager calls a 'fair price' (or price-value relationship) thereby attracting the right volume of business and negating the need to negotiate price.
這樣做的目的是要建立經營者所謂的 "合理價格" (或價格/價值比), 藉以得到適當的業務量且摒除議價的必要. @ragu62 wrote:
i would like to know why the discount i was offered int the store on 8/7 isn’t being applied to my bill fully. there seems to be some confusion at at&t about the discount. i should be receiving a 25% discount to my plan and eclair line of service. as of my second bill i have only received the discount on the plan. when will it be applied to each line also and will i get reimbursed for the charges on previous bills like i was told. 

this discount only applies to the plan, the line charges.
