- Management of the Toys R4U Company needs to decide whether to introduce a certain new novelty toy for the upcoming Christmas season, after which it would be discontinued. The total cost required to produce and market this toy would be $500,000 plus $15 per toy produced. The company would receive revenue of $35 for each toy sold. Assuming that every unit of this toy that is produced is sold, write an expression for the profit in terms of the number produced and sold. Then find the break-even point that this number must exceed to make it worthwhile to introduce this toy. Now assume that the number that can be sold might be less than the number produced. Write an expression for the profit in terms of these two numbers. Formulate a spreadsheet that will give the profit in part b for any values of the two numbers. Write a mathematical expression for the constraint that the number produced should not exceed the number that can be sold.arrow_forwardThree years ago you purchased a 12% coupon bond that pays semiannual coupon payments for $986. What would be your bond equivalent yield if you sold the bond for current market price of $1,040? Your bond equivalent yield, if you sold the bond for current market price, is %. (Round to two decimal places.)arrow_forward(True, False) Stagflation happens when the economy is experiencing a bust and deflation. Stagflation occurs when the (AD, SR-AS) curve shifts to the (right, left). In the short-run, this shift would cause the overall price level to (increase, decrease) and output to (increase, decrease). Workers may see the short-run effect on the overall price level and negotiate for (higher, lower) wages, resulting in a price-wage spiral. Given that 1) output has (increased, declined) in the short-run, there is a (negative, positive, zero) output gap and that there is a (negative, positive, zero) cyclical unemployment, workers will eventually (accept, fight for) (higher, lower) wages. When this happens, the (AD, SR-AS, LR-AS) curve will shift to the |(right, left), reaching the long-run equilibrium.arrow_forward
