Does the scenario present an example of post-investment holdup? Your company took note of your progress toward your MBA, and when the director for customer services left the company, you were asked to take over as interim director.  You were encouraged to apply for the full-time position once you got your MBA. You served for 13 months, at which time your company was acquired by another company and your position was abolished. If yes: What is the sunk, or straned, cost? What is the contract? Was the contract breached? What are the damages?

The owner of Mujur Café estimates that the café's revenue has grown exponentially represented by the dR function R'(t) = Cekt, where t is time (month) and k is a constant growth (note: R'(t) : or it is the dt = rate of growth of revenue function). If it is assumed that R'(0) = Rp 50,000,000 per month and R'(1) = Rp 60,000,000 per month, then

Isabel runs her​ family's small pineapple processing​ plant, which takes fresh pineapples and cuts them into pineapple​ rings, spears, and chunks. The capital stock of the firm consists of three machines of various​ vintages, each of which can process the pineapples into any of the three different forms. All of the machines are in excellent​ condition, and all machines can be running at the same time.   Cost of processing per pineapple  Maximum total capacity (pineapples) per day Machine 1 $ 0.10 250 Machine 2    0.25 400 Machine 3    0.50 500 (A) Assume that "cost of processing" includes all labor and materials, including the owner's wages. Assume further that Isabel's family signed a long-term contract (20 years) with a service company to keep the machines in good repair for a fixed fee of $1,825 per year, or $5 per day.1) Derive the firm's marginal cost curve.2) Derive the firm's total cost curve.(B) At a price of $0.40, how many pineapples would the company process?…

Lena Lollipops produces lollipops by batch. It has established that there is a certain learning curve pattern that is present in its production. When the very first batch was produced, a total of P2,000 was incurred, of which 50% was for materials and the rest for labor and variable overhead. Overhead was determined to have the same behavior as labor costs. For the third and fourth batches, a total of P2,960 was incurred for production. This sums up their total production cost to P6,560 since they began operations. In this batch, overhead costs equate to one-fourth of total labor costs. Lena Lollipops have already produced 16 batches in total. Candy Man Store placed a large order of 16 additional batches of lollipops to be distributed in their stores. (use 3 decimal places and round-off answers to two decimal places) What is the average cost of labor per batch at a production level of 16 batches? How much would be the total production cost for the order? How much labor cost would be…

Paradise Pottery had the following costs in May when production is 800 ceramic pots: materials, $8,700; labor (variable), $2,900; depreciation, $1,100; rent, $900; and other fixed costs, $1,500. If production changes to 900 units, how much will the total variable costs and total fixed costs be, respectively?

If the marginal personal tax rate imposed on interest income paid to bondholders were to increase, holding the corporate tax rate and the personal tax rate on payments to equity (e.g., taxes on dividends), what is the impact on the marginal benefit of debt to the corporation? How might this effect the optimal amount of debt the firm should have in its capital structure?
