Answer:

A

Explanation:

In the Demand and Supply curve changes in prices will traduce in movements along the demand or along the supply curve but they will not change their position on the graph, for instance this will affect the quantity demanded or the quantity supplied. In this case, because the demand curve has a negative slope, if price decreases the quantity demanded increases. Intuitively, if consumers perceive a good or a service that is cheaper than before, more people will be interested on buying it.  

When it is said that demand or supply increase or decrease is because one of those or both shifts to left or to right. But this happens only when factors different from prices have changed. The problem does not specify what changes the supply, but it says that "increases" then, we understand that there is a shift to the right of the supply curve. If the demand curve remains constant, then the equilibrium price will decrease, and the equilibrium quantity will increase. So, the statement is partially true at the beginning, but the second part is false.

Suppose the market for gourmet chocolate is in long-run equilibrium, and an economic downturn has reduced consumer discretionary
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

a. Decrease

b. Decline

c. Exit

d. No change

Explanation:

The market for gourmet chocolate is in the long-run equilibrium, and an economic downturn has caused the consumer disposable income to fall. Chocolate is a normal good, and the chocolate producers have identical cost structures.

a. This decline in the consumer income will reduce the purchasing power of the consumers. As a result, the demand will decrease. The demand curve will move to the left.

b. This leftward shift in the demand curve will cause the price to decline, As the price falls, the profits earned by the producers will decline as well.

c. In the long run, the firms operate at zero economic profits. So a decline in profits imply that the firms are operating at an economic loss. This will cause the loss incurring firms to exit the market.

d. The long run supply curve will remain the same. It is not affected by change in profits, it changes only with change in the state of technology or availability of resources.

On January 1, Year 1, the Hoverman Corporation made amendments to its defined benefit pension plan, resulting in $150,000 of pas
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

a)

In IFRS according to IAS 19 all past service cost is recognized in the net income in the period in which amendment (change) is made by entity for defined benefit pension, it does not matter what is the status of the employees who will benefit the change. So in Year 1 $150000 will be expended completely and in subsequent years the amount is $0

Year 1 =$150000

Subsequent years= $0

b) In US GAAP the past service cost is recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income in the year of amendment. It is amortized over the future working life of the participants.

Year 1 is year of adoption hence $0 is amortized because $150000 is included in Accumulated other comprehensive income.

Subsequent years: (150000/10=15000) $15000 will be amortized for each year for 10 years.
