The Case: The hairdressing industry in Pakistan is flourishing day by day. There are certainly lots of hairdressers and each of the hairdressers has a slightly different type of skill. Some salons only cut, some only provide color services, some only do natural hair, some do all types, etc. Also, they have different premises situated in a different location where they provide the services. The prices offered by the hairdresser depend on the services offered by them and its uniqueness. If the particular hairdresser is known for providing the best services in the particular market then he can increase the prices of his services as he knows that consumers can pay slightly more amount of money for his superior services. There is relatively a low barrier for entry and exit for setting up a new hairdresser shop. Requirement: Read the above scenario and explain in which market structure ‘the hairdressing industry’ falls and how?

A corporation wishes to determine the fixed portion of its maintenance expense (a semivariable expense), as measured against direct labor hours, for the first 3 months of the year. The inspection costs are fixed; the adjustments necessitated by errors found during inspection account for the variable portion of the maintenance costs. Information for the first quarter is as follows:

Direct Labor Hours Maintenance Expense
January 34,000 $610
February 31,000 $585
March 34,000 $610

Required:
What is the fixed portion of Jacob's maintenance expense, rounded to the nearest dollar?

A machine at a cost of $5,000 was purchased 3 years ago. It can be sold now for $3,000. If the machine is kept, the annual operating and maintenance costs will be $1,500. If it is kept and operated for next five years, determine the amount at time 0 (now) equivalent to the cost of owning and operating the machine for the next five-year period. It is anticipated that the machine can be sold for $1,000 at the end of the five-year period. Use an interest rate of 10%

Quality improvement, relevant costs, relevant revenues. SpeedPrint manufactures and sells 18,000 high-technology printing presses each year. The variable and fixed costs of rework and repair are as follows:
Variable Cost Fixed Cost Total Cost
Rework Cost per hr. $79 $115 $194
Repair Cost
Customer Support cost/hr. 35 55 90
Transportation Cost/load 350 115 465
Warranty repair cost/hour 89 150 239
Speed Print’s current presses have a quality problem that causes variations in the shade of some colors. Its engineers suggest changing a key component in each press. The new component will cost $70 more than the old one. In the next year, however, Speed Print expects that with the new component it will
(1) save 14,000 hours of rework,
(2) save 850 hours of customer support,
(3) move 225 fewer loads,
(4) save 8,000 hours of warranty repairs, and
(5) sell an additional 140 printing presses, for a total contribution margin of $1,680,000. SpeedPrint believes that even as it improves quality, it will not be able to save any of the fixed costs of rework or repair. SpeedPrint uses a 1-year time horizon for this decision because it plans to introduce a new press at the end of the year.
1. Should SpeedPrint change to the new component? Show your calculations.
2. Suppose the estimate of 140 additional printing presses sold is uncertain. What is the minimum number of additional printing presses that SpeedPrint needs to sell to justify adopting the new component?
3. What other factors should managers at SpeedPrint consider when making their decision about changing to a new component?
