Personally, I don't think GDP is a good measure of a countries economy. GDP= gross domestic product which is the total value of the goods that a country produces and sells divided equally among its population.

GDP is just an average, it does not take into account that some people will have more or less money than others.

Secondly, GDP does not take into account other scales of economic importance such as infant mortality rate or literacy rate. infant mortality rate can say a lot about the state of a countries economic state. A lower infant mortality rate tends to mean a more advanced, stronger economy. Furthermore, literacy rate can indicate the state of the economy too. A higher literacy rate tends to mean a better economy because the education system is better.

Hope this helps! :)

Assume that Clark Electronics has a monopoly in the production and sale of a new device for detecting and destroying a computer
Triss [41]

Solution :

c. MC=MR is the profit maximizing equilibrium point. The price rise beyond that is likely to raise the total revenue. But the total cost might increase equally or more then that to nullify or decrease the profit.

d. (i). The demand increase implies that the AR (demand) curve shifts rightwards. This will increase the equilibrium price.

(ii). Change in demand does not affect the total cost.

a. Monopoly might continue to produce in short earn even if its AR < AC. It continues to do so until shut down point. It refers that production continued until average revenue (AR) is greater than equal to the average variable cost (AVC). The monopoly is a market with a single seller.

This market's average revenue (AR) demand curve is above its marginal curve . The curves are downward sloping, illustrating price demand inverse relationship.

Equilibrium quantity : when the marginal revenue = marginal cost

Equilibrium price : equilibrium quantity corresponding price at AR (demand ) curve.

If a product is repaired under warranty, the seller would record a journal entry that includes a ________.a. debit to Product Wa
Anastaziya [24]

Answer: Debit to Product Warranty Payable

Explanation: Product Warranty Payable is a liability account that has a credit balance. To increase a liability a credit is recorded while to reduce a liability a debit is recorded to the liability.

The seller maintains the warranty as a liability and initially records a debit to its product warranty expense and a credit to its product warranty Payable.

When a repair is done on a product under warranty, the seller records a debit to the product warranty Payable to reduce it’s liability.

Also, a debit to either supplies or cash will increase the expense and assets accounts respectively which will amount to incorrect journal entries.

Deffense [45]

Answer:

$42.5 billion

Explanation:

the expected value formula = ∑ (valueₙ x probabilityₙ)

expected value = (low value x probability of low value) + (most likely value x probability of most likely value) + (high value x probability of high value)

= ($5 billion x 20%) + ($45 billion x 70%) + ($100 billion x 10%) = $1 billion + $31.5 billion + $10 billion = $42.5 billion

Jim left his previous job as a sales manager and started his own sales consulting business. He previously earned $70,000 per yea
emmainna [20.7K]

$45,000 per year is the economic cost of the time he contributes to the new business.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The difference between the accounting cost and the implicit cost refers to the economic cost. Implicit cost refers to the opportunity cost that the person incurs when he makes a choice. For example consider Geetha is spending something for watching a movie. The cost that she spends for the movie and the cost that can be forgone by her when she spends that for some other things will be included in the economic cost.

In the example given Jim  was earning d $70,000 per year and now he is paying himself  $25,000 per year for building a new business. Thus the economic cost will be $70,000 -$25,000 = $45,000 per year. Here the accounting cost is  $70,000  and the implicit cost is $25,000.
