Answer:
D. estimate price elasticity of demand by experimenting with different prices.
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand is an economic concept which is a measure of the sensitivity of customers willingness to buy something to its price. If the customers readily change their buying behavior with a change in price of the product, it would mean that the demand for the product is elastic.

When a party believes that a case has no legal basis, in other words the party does not believe that what they did warrants a court case, they would file a motion to dismiss so as not to waste resources fighting something they see as frivolous.
In this case, NuProducts is essentially filing a motion to dismiss when they say that they did nothing wrong according to the law. They would prefer if the courts simply dismissed the case so that they would not incur costs to fight the case.
Answer:
D) $8,000 inventory, $0 land
Explanation:
Tyson's basis in the distributed inventory and land will be $8,000 inventory, $0 land
Because he initially first allocates his outside basis to the assets distributed which is in an amount that is equal to KT's basis which is ($20,000 cash and $8,000 land).
Therefore this results in a required decrease of $0 due to the basis he reduces in the land by the required decrease, which thereby results in a basis of $0 to the land.
Taxes levied on the sale, manufacture or use of specific items such as liquor, cigarettes, and gasoline are known as <u>selective sales taxes</u>, as well as <u>excise taxes.</u>
So, there aren't taxes on a whole bunch of products, but rather on a selected few, which (in the case of alcohol and cigarettes) are considered detrimental to the society and thus people who want to use them have to pay a little bit more in order to have that commodity.
