Explanation: The first, addressed in Part I, is the administrative cost of deregulation, which has grown substantially under the Telecommunications Act of 1996.Part II addresses the consequences of the FCC's use of a competitor-welfare standard when formulating its policies for local competition, rather than a consumer-welfare standard. I evaluate the reported features of the FCC's decision in its Triennial Review. Press releases and statements concerning that decision suggest that the FCC may have finally embraced a consumer-welfare approach to mandatory unbundling at TELRIC prices. The haphazard administrative process surrounding the FCC's decision, however, increases the likelihood of reversal on appeal.Beginning in Part III, I address at greater length the WorldCom fraud and bankruptcy. I offer an early assessment of the harm to the telecommunications industry from WorldCom's fraud and bankruptcy. I explain how WorldCom's misconduct caused collateral damage to other telecommunications firms, government, workers, and the capital markets. WorldCom's false Internet traffic reports and accounting fraud encouraged overinvestment in long-distance capacity and Internet backbone capacity. Because Internet traffic data are proprietary and WorldCom dominated Internet backbone services, and because WorldCom was subject to regulatory oversight, it was reasonable for rival carriers to believe WorldCom's misrepresentation of Internet traffic growth. Event study analysis suggests that the harm to rival carriers and telecommunications equipment manufacturers from WorldCom's restatement of earnings was $7.8 billion. WorldCom's false or fraudulent statements also supplied state and federal governments with incorrect information essential to the formulation of telecommunication policy. State and federal governments, courts, and regulatory commissions would thus be justified in applying extreme skepticism to future representations made by WorldCom.Part IV explains how WorldCom's fraud and bankruptcy may have been intended to harm competition, and in the future may do so, by inducing exit (or forfeiture of market share) by the company's rivals. WorldCom repeatedly deceived investors, competitors, and regulators with false statements about its Internet traffic projections and financial performance. At a minimum, WorldCom's fraudulent or false
The answer is (b) Greater,Rise ,toward
Explanation:
Refer to Exhibit 3-17. At a price of $16, the quantity demanded of good X is <u>Greater </u>than the quantity supplied of good X, and economists would use this information to predict that the price of good X would soon <u>Rise</u> .This would push the price <u>Toward</u> the equilibrium price
The law of Demand states that the price and the supply of the product are inversely related (i.e . ceteris Paribus).
Also an increase in the number of buyers of a particular product leads to a shift in the demand curve towards the right side
A. would be your answer :) hope this helps
Answer:
the $500,000 that the old production line costed must be treated as a sunk cost. Sunk costs are costs that have already been incurred and the firm cannot recover them no matter what they do. in this case, since ankle-length skirts are out of fashion, the production is useless and is worth $0.
Explanation:
Answer:
- <u><em>option C. 1331.</em></u>
Explanation:
The question asks for an estimate of 11.4³.
To calculate 11.4³ exactly to must multiply 11.4 × 11.4 × 11.4.
But to have an estimate, the easiest way is to round 11.4 to 11 and find 11³ = 11 × 11 × 11.
That is not a difficult operation.
That is equal to 11² × 11.
- 11² is a common square, which you should know that it is 121. Else, you can multiply 11 × 11 easily and obtain 121:
11 × 11 = (10 + 1) × 11 = 110 + 11 = 121
11 × 121 = (10 + 1) × 121 = 10 × 121 + 121 = 1210 + 121 = 1331
There you have your answer: option C. 1331.
