During a recent IRS audit, the revenue agent decided that the Parker family used their closely held corporation, Falco, to avoid shareholder tax by accumulating earnings beyond the reasonable needs of the business. Falco’s taxable income was $900,000, it paid no dividends, and it had no business need to retain income. Falco’s marginal tax rate in prior years was 34 percent.

"A company's marketing strategy will last two years and produce revenue in years 1 and 2 only. The strategy can result in a success, a moderate success, or a failure. The marketing strategy will cost $71,000 immediately (year 0), $42,000 in year 1, and $13,000 in year 2. There is uncertainty with projected revenues, but the forecasted revenues and probabilities for the marketing strategy are as follows: - Success: Year 1: $107,000; Year 2: $114,000; Probability: 0.21 - Moderate success: Year 1: $94,000; Year 2: $76,000; Probability: 0.43 - Failure: Year 1: $38,000; Year 2: $48,000; Probability: 0.36 The company's MARR is 25%. You can ignore any other costs except for the marketing costs. Calculate the standard deviation of the net present worth for the strategy. HINT: it is easier to calculate the net present worth of each separate result first (success, moderate success, failure) before dealing with the probabilities."

1. What is true at the quantity where total revenue is maximized?
Select one:
a. Demand is inelastic.
b. The elasticity value = 1
c. MR is positive
d. MR is negative
2. "Every company needs to worry about a recession." This statement should be modified because
Select one:
a. companies with a negative cross-price elasticity will likely enjoy more sales because recessions do not affect the sales of complementary products.
b. companies that sell goods with high own-price elasticity of demand will likely enjoy more sales as their prices rise during a recession.
c. companies that sell normal goods will likely enjoy more sales during a recession with falling incomes.
d. companies that sell inferior goods (negative income elasticity) will likely enjoy more sales during a recession with falling incomes.
3. Everyone knows that the biggest rival to your company (Frank's Fantastic Fudge-Filled Fedoras) is Nate's Nutella-eNgorged Neckerchiefs. On a lark and using sales and price data, you estimate the cross-price elasticity between Frank's and Nate's two products to be 0.08, while the cross-price elasticity between Frank's product and Cole's Cocoa-Covered Corduroy Caps is 1.12. Your calculations suggest that
Select one:
a. consumers consider Frank's and Cole's products to be more complementary to each other than are Frank's and Nate's products.
b. consumers consider Frank's and Nate's products to be better substitutes than are Frank's and Cole's products.
c. consumers consider Frank's and Cole's products to be better substitutes than are Frank's and Nate's products.
d. Frank's should be more concerned if Nate's drops the price of their product than if Cole's drops the price of their product.
