16) In the past a common practice for selling a home was to allow the buyer to "assume the mortgage" this meant that the buyer would be able to take over the existing mortgage of the seller. The advantage of doing this was that the existing mortgage might have a lower interest rate than the current mortgages. Suppose that a seller of a home has an interest rate of 3% on his existing mortgage and it is locked in for the next 5 years. Suppose also that the best interest rate buyers can ger for a new mortgage is 6%. If the mortgage is assumed by the buyer, who benefits: the buyer or the seller?

- Pricing Decisions at Madison The Madison Company manufactures and retails a certain product. The company wants to determine the price that maximizes its profit from this product. The unit cost of producing and marketing the product is 50. Madison will certainly charge at least 50 for the product to ensure that it makes some profit. However, there is a very competitive market for this product, so that Madisons demand falls sharply when it increases its price. How should the company proceed?2 In the pricing model in Example 7.1 with the constant elasticity demand function, the assumption is that all units demanded are sold. Suppose the company has the capacity to produce only 200 units. If demand is less than capacity, all of demand is sold. If demand is greater than or equal to capacity, only 200 units are sold. Use Solver to find the optimal price and the corresponding profit. Then use SolverTable to see how sensitive these answers are to the production capacity, letting it vary from 170 to 230 in increments of 10. Discuss your findings relative to the original solution in Example 7.1. In other words, what is the effect of capacity on the optimal price and profit?1. Select the rule which determines the quantity of a rice which a consumer will demand.a) Continue to buy so long as there is no consumer surplus.b) Stop buying rice at the level of demand where the consumer surplus rises above the market price.c) Stop buying rice at the level of demand where the marginal utility falls to the price of rice.d) Continue to buy so long as demand for rice is price elastic. 2. In which of these situations might moral hazard arise?a) Insurance companies fail to calculate the risks of accident correctly.b) A company receives an exemption from pollution control legislation.c) A sports team accepts bribes which affect their performance in a game.d) A group of households makes a collective purchase of flood insurancePurchase Discounts It is typically beneficial for companies to take advantage of early-paymentdiscounts allowed on purchases made on credit. To see why this is the case, determine the effectiverate of interest associated with not taking advantage of the early-payment discount for each of thefollowing situations. Assume in each case that payment is made on the 30th day of the billing cycle.Required1. What is the opportunity cost of not taking advantage of the discount associated with purchases madeunder the following terms: 2/10, n/30? (Show calculations.)2. What is the opportunity cost of not taking advantage of the discount associated with purchases madeunder the following terms: 1/10, n/30? (Show calculations.)3. To motivate managers to take early-payment discounts, what is the appropriate accounting treatment forpurchase discounts?
- 33- In the cash count made on 10.05.202, a cash balance of 35,000 TL was determined. As of the same date, the total debit of the cash account is TL 45,000, and the total receivable is TL 15,000. Which of the following calculations is correct in this situation? a) 197 Lack of Counting and Receipt Hs. 5,000 TL (Borrower) B) 770 General Administrative Expenses Hs. 5,000 (Borrower) NS) 760 Marketing Sales and Distribution Expenses Hs. 5,000 (Borrower) D) 397 Count and Receipt Surplus Hs. 5,000 TL (Creditor) TO) 100 Case Hs. 5,000 TL (Creditor)CASE JOVINA BUENAARTE PLASTIC PRODUCTS: LET ME TRY AGAIN Miss Jovina Buenaarte was thirty-six years old way back in 2003 when she first started plastic products. She made up her mind to operate this business when her friend, a plastic maker, complained about the unavailability of plastic products in the area which is of standard quality. Those that are locally máde do not conform to the requirements set by various users. With a P50,000 starting capital, Ms. Buenaarte proceeded to produce plastic products like bags and kitchen utensils. She personally supervised the mixing of the necessary materials for production. Because of good quality control, her products surpassed the requirements of buyers. Her sales increased considerably even if her selling prices are a little higher than those of competitors. The firm soon grew into a multi-million peso operation. The number of her employees increased to about a hundred with five assigned to administration and the rest either as drivers or…Michelle owns a house in which she keeps valuables worth 100,000 which can get stolen with probability 1%. She can purchase coverage C of the amount C ∈ [0; 100,000] at premium π = 0.05 dollars for each dollar covered. Her Bernouilli utility function is u(w) = ln(w). Assume she has no other assets. 1. Set up her maximization problem. 2. How much insurance will she choose to buy? 3. How much profits does the insurance company earn on insuring Michelle? 4. Does the fact that the insurance company earn profits mean that Michelle is worse off com-pared to the situation in which she is not insured? Explain what is happening. 5. How much insurance will she buy if insurance companies charge an actuarially fair insurance rate?
