MBA 5010 Week 4 Integrative Assignment
This week, you’re going to build on the knowledge you gained. Your assignment is to deconstruct the economics underlying Airbnb. Specifically, I want you to answer the following questions:
• Does Airbnb capture a sufficient amount of any value generated to remain a viable business?
The purpose of this question is to provide you an opportunity to demonstrate your understanding of the economics of value creation. So, emphasize this aspect of your answer. Try to limit yourself to 500 words. Your answer will be evaluated based on correctness, completeness, and clarity. As always, be attentive to your writing.

Suppose a computer company sells service plans for their laptop computers. Each service plan costs $250 and lasts for three years. The service plan covers any genuine hardware malfunctions during the warranty period but will only allow for up to one claim. Suppose that the average cost of repair is $850. Suppose also that the likelihood of a warranty claim is 22%. Let x denote the discrete random variable that represents the amounts the company (i) makes from a service plan for a person that makes no claims and (ii) loses for a service plan for a person that makes one claim. Please complete the following tasks.
Construct a probability distribution for x.
Use the probability distribution to calculate the expected value μ.
Write an explanation for what the expected value tells us as it relates to the company’s profits on service plans. Make sure you are very specific and include units.
By how much does the company need to raise the price of a service plan to increase their expected value by $50? Show your work.

Topic : Consolidation: Non-controlling interests
On 1 July 2016, Poppy Ltd acquired 80% of the issued shares of Sunshine Ltd for $240 000 when the equity of Sunshine Ltd consisted of:
share capital $160000
general reserve $10000
retained earnings $59000
At this date, all identifiable assets and liabilities of Sunshine Ltd were recorded at fair value except for the following.
carrying amount fair value
inventories $ 10000 $14 000
plant (cost $220 000) 90 000 99 000
land 70 000 87 000
Half of the inventories were sold by 30 June 2017 and the remainder by 30 June 2018. The plant has a further 3-year life beyond 1 July 2016, with benefits to be received evenly over this period. The land was sold on 1 March 2020 to an external party. Adjustments for the differences between carrying amounts and fair values are to be made in the consolidation worksheet. Poppy Ltd uses the partial goodwill method. The tax rate is 30%.
During the 4 years since acquisition, Sunshine Ltd has recorded the following annual results and declared the following dividends.
