Is there excess demand or supply? Explain.e) There is a business cycle expansion, so both supply and demand shifts. After the shift, thenew demand curve is given by: D = 4000 + X − 2P, whereas the new supply curve is S =2P + 200. For which values of X will the interest increase/decrease? Which values of X arein line with empirical data?

The owners of a small manufacturing concern have hired a vice president to run the company with the expectation that he will buy the company after five years. Compensation of the new vice president is a flat salary plus 75% of the first $150,000 profit, and then 10% of profit over $150,000. Purchase price for the company is set at 4.5 times earnings (profit), computed as average annual profitability over the next five years.
a. Plot the annual compensation of the vice president as a function of annual profit.
b. Assume the company will be worth $10 million in five years. Plot the profit of buying the company as a function of annual profit.
c. Does this contract align the incentives of the new vice president with the profitability goals of the owners?
d. Redesign the contract to better align the incentives of the new vice president with the profitability goals of the owners.

You work for a pharmaceutical company that has developed a new vaccine. The patenton the vaccine will last 15 years. You expect that the drug’s profits will be $2 million in itsfirst year and that the profit will grow at a rate of 5% per year for the next 15 years. Oncethe patent expires, other pharmaceutical companies will be able to produce the same drugand competition will likely reduce growth to 1% per year.
a. What is the present value of the new drug if the cost of capital is 8%?
b. What is the drug’s present value if competition causes the company to havenegative growth of -5% (i.e., minus 5%) after the first 15 years?

13.12 You work for Bellevue Window Products. While
performing an analysis for a new window prod-
uct, you found a report from last year that pro-
vided the following information regarding the
manufacture of a similar product: annual produc-
tion rate T 40,000 units; selling price = $70 per
unit; fixed production cost = $240,000 per year;
variable production cost = $1,700,000 per year;
variable selling expenses = $96,000 per year. As
a first-cut, you decide to use this information to
estimate (a) the breakeven production rate per
year, (b) the company's profit last year, and (c)
the annual production rate that would generate a
profit of $1,000,000 per year. What are your
estimates?
