Answer:

a. It will increase.

b. It will decrease

c. It will decrease

d. it will increase.

Explanation:

If the price of an input needed for production of good X decreases, the cost of production of good X reduces. It becomes cheaper to produce good X and and as a result the supply of good X would increase.

An increase in tax increases the cost of production and makes production of good X more expensive. As a result, the supply of good X would fall.

technological change that reduces the cost of producing additional units of good X, would make the production of good X less expensive. As a result, the supply of good X would increase

At the end of its first year of operations, shapiro's consulting services reported net income of $27,000. they also had account
Otrada [13]
Answer: $11,200

Explanation:

Using the accounting equation:

(Total Assets) = (Total Liabilities) + (Total Capital)

So,

(Total Liabilities) = (Total Assets) - (Total Capital)    (1)

Based on equation (1), in order to compute for the total liability, we need to compute the total assets and total capital.

At the end of the first year, the following are the assets Shapiro's consulting services (together with the amount):

Cash:                              $16,000
Office Supplies:                $3,200
Equipment:                     $24,000
Accounts Receivable:       $8,000
TOTAL ASSETS            $51,200

Note that the total assets is obtained by adding the amount (or value) of the all the assets listed above.

Since the net income is an increase (or decrease if it's a net loss) of capital, we classify net income as capital. In particular, the net income of Shairo's at the end of first year adds to the capital at the start of first year. 

Moreover, the withdrawal of money by the owner also decreases the capital.  

Thus, the total capital at the end of first year is calculated as follows:

Capital (start of the year):            $15,000
Net Income (end of year):           $27,000   
Withdrawal Amount:                    ($2,000)
TOTAL CAPITAL:                       $40,000

Note: ($2,000) means -$2,000. This notation is used in accounting.

Hence using equation (1), the total liabilities at the end of first year is given by

(Total Liabilities) = (Total Assets) - (Total Capital)
                           = $51,200 - $40,000
Total Liabilities = $11,200

Jamison Paints makes and sells paint to home improvement stores. Jamison's only plant can produce up to 12 million cans of paint
Olin [163]

Answer:

Jamison's current total cost of making and selling 10 million cans of paint is $75,000,000 and the current cost per can of paint is $7.5

Explanation:

For computing the current total cost, we need to apply the formula which is shown below:

Total cost = Fixed cost + variable cost

where,

Fixed cost = $15,000,000

And, the variable cost = Annual production × variable cost per plant

                                     = 10,000,000 × $6

                                     = $60,000,000

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= $15,000,000 + $60,000,000

= $75,000,000

Now the current cost per can of paint would be

= (Total cost) ÷ (Annual production)

= ($75,000,000) ÷ (10,000,000)

= $7.5 per can of paint

Assume that when the price of cantaloupes is $2.50 the demand for cantaloupes is unit-elastic, and that the demand curve for can
Maru [420]

Answer:

The correct answer is option A.

Explanation:

The demand for cantaloupes is unitary elastic at price level $2.50. The demand curve here is linear and downward sloping. The elasticity of demand is 1.

In this linear demand curve the lower portion will represent inelastic demand.

When the price level is reduced to $2 the demand will move to the lower portion of the curve, with fall in price and increase in demand.

So, at $2 price the demand will be inelastic, which means it will be between 0 and 1.
