Net income and owner's equity for four businesses four different proprietorships, jupiter, mars, saturn, and venus, show the same balance sheet data at the beginning and end of a year. these data, exclusive of the amount of owner's equity, are summarized as follows: total assets total liabilities beginning of the year $550,000 $215,000 end of the year 844,000 320,000 on the basis of the preceding data and the following additional information for the year, determine the net income (or loss) of each company for the year. (hint: first determine the amount of increase or decrease in owner's equity during the year.) jupiter: the owner had made no additional investments in the business and had made no withdrawals from the business. mars: the owner had made no additional investments in the business but had withdrawn $36,000. saturn: the owner had made an additional investment of $60,000 but had made no withdrawals. venus: the owner had made an additional investment of $60,000 and had withdrawn $36,000. jupiter net income $ mars net income $ saturn net income $ venus net income $

Suppose that two firms produce differentiated products and compete in prices. as in class, the two firms are located at two ends of a line one mile apart. consumers are evenly distributed along the line. the firms have identical marginal cost, $60. firm b produces a product with value $110 to consumers.firm a (located at 0 on the unit line) produces a higher quality product with value $120 to consumers. the cost of travel are directly related to the distance a consumer travels to purchase a good. if a consumerhas to travel a mile to purchase a good, the incur a cost of $20. if they have to travel x fraction of a mile, they incur a cost of $20x. (a) write down the expressions for how much a consumer at location d would value the products sold by firms a and b, if they set prices p_{a} and p_{b} ? (b) based on your expressions in (a), how much will be demanded from each firm if prices p_{a} and p_{b} are set? (c) what are the nash equilibrium prices?
