Answer: c. specialize in producing beer and export beer.
Explanation:
As per the Theory of Competitive Advantage posited by David Ricardo, a country should specialize in the good that it has a competitive advantage in. A country has a competitive advantage if it incurs a less opportunity cost in producing the good.
Opportunity cost of producing beer for Germany = MPLc/MPLb = 2/5
Opportunity cost of producing beer for China = MPLc/MPLb = 1
Germany has a lower cost of producing beer so they should specialize in this and export it.
Answer: a. Credit to Unrealized Gain-Equity for $4,000.
Explanation:
Because the investment is an AVAILABLE FOR SALE investment, gains and losses made on it are recorded under COMPREHENSIVE INCOME in the Equity section as Unrealized gains or losses.
Because this is profit, it is treated as Unrealized gains and is Credited in the Equity section under Comprehensive income.
You however only record the gains or losses and not the whole amount because the investment is recorded at Fair Value as an asset.
Therefore in this scenario, the gain is $20,000-$16000 which is $4000. That is what is recorded as an Unrealized gain.
Answer:
The discount rate is 12.46%
Explanation:
In this question, we use the Capital asset pricing model (CAPM).
The formula and computation of the discount rate is shown below:
= Risk-free rate of return + (Beta × Market risk premium)
= 3.5% + (1.12 × 8%)
= 3.5% + 8.96%
= 12.46%
Since we have to compute the discount rate for the project that involves the manufacturing of furniture, so we have to use the Integral designs beta instead of the Honest Abe because Integral design is a furniture maker
