Entity A transferred goods with an invoice price of $98,000,000 to the customer on 31 January 2020. The customer agreed to settle the outstanding amount by two payments, i.e. 40% and 60% of the outstanding amount on 18 February 2020 and 31 March 2020 respectively.

West Corporation reported the following consolidated data for 20X2:
  Sales $ 801,000
  Consolidated income before taxes 138,000
Total assets 1,300,000

Data reported for West’s four operating divisions are as follows:

Division A Division B Division C Division D
  Sales to outsiders $ 270,000 $ 150,000 $ 330,000 $ 51,000
  Intersegment sales 62,000 16,000 21,000
  Traceable costs 255,000 100,000 300,000 92,000
  Assets 491,000 115,000 510,000 85,000

Intersegment sales are priced at cost, and all goods have been subsequently sold to nonaffiliates. Some joint production costs are allocated to the divisions based on total sales. These joint costs were $45,000 in 20X2. The company’s corporate center had $30,000 of general corporate expenses and $130,000 of assets that the chief operating decision maker did not use in making the decision regarding the operating segments.

Required:

Each of the following items is unrelated to the others.

The divisions are industry segments.

Prepare a segmental disclosure worksheet for the company. (Do not round your intermediate calculations.)

3. Suppose you are the manager of an airline company. As a recent MBA graduate, you decided to use all the knowledge you have acquired to improve the firm’s pricing decisions. To begin with, you search for a market survey company to find out the demand curve for flights. The market survey company sent you back a report stating that there are two distinct segments of consumers - tourists and business travelers – and that their demand curves are given by the following equations:

Market Demand for Tourists: Q = 500 – 2P + 2I

Market Demand for Business Travelers: Q = 1000 – P + I

Where Q is the quantity demanded (in thousands of tickets), P is the price for a ticket, and I is the median income of each segment of consumers.

Currently, the price for tourists is $200 and the price for business travelers is $500. Moreover, the median income of tourists is $50 and the median income of business travelers is $100.

a) Using the point slope elasticity formula, what is the price elasticity of demand for airline tickets at the current price and income level for each group of consumer? Hint: to answer this question you will need to accurately determine the slope of the two demand curves given the level of income for each group and find the quantity each group demands at the current price for the group given the income that each group has.

b) Based on your result in (a), do you think you should raise or lower the price paid by tourists? What about the price paid by business travelers?

c) To verify your answer in (b), set a new price for tourists that is $50 higher or lower than the original price of $200 and a new price for business travelers that is $50 higher or lower than the original price of $500. Make your determination of whether to raise or lower the price based on your answers in (b). Relative to the revenue accrued in each market segment with the original prices, what happens to the revenue accrued by the airline in each market segment with the new prices? Hint: If the revenue does not increase then you need to redo this problem by moving the price in the opposite direction!

d) Using the two-point elasticity formula (the arc elasticity formula), what is the price elasticity of demand when you go from the original price to the new price? In doing this problem hold income constant.
