The best explanation for the rise in economist salaries and the fall in accounting salaries would be (B) The supply of economists must have decreased, and the supply of accountants must have increased.

<h3>Why is this the best explanation?</h3>

When there is a decrease in the supply of a commodity, its prices will go up. The salaries of economists went up because the number of economists available, decreased.

When there is an increase in the supply of something, the price will decrease. This is why the accountants saw their salaries decrease - the number of accountants available increased.

In conclusion, option B is correct.

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

I think the CFO is not responsible for production, well, a CFO used to be responsible for it but when technology came and the need for accounting skills became a problem, the responsibilities related to production for the CFO diminished. And also research and development is not a responsibility for the chief financial officer since that department has nothing really to do with the CFO.

MillerCoors Brewing Company is the world’s fifth largest brewer. In the United States, its tie to the magical appeal of the Rock
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

1. Purchase of stock. FINANCING ACTIVITIES.

Financing activities relate to transactions that involve the capital of the company. They include long term debt and equity. In this case, the company is buying back its own shares so this falls under Financing activities as it has to do with the company's own capital.

2. Principal payment on long-term debt. FINANCING ACTIVITIES.

Principal repayment retires long term debt and as mentioned above, financing activities relate to activities that involve long term debt.

3. Proceeds from sale of properties. INVESTING ACTVITIES.

Properties are fixed assets and transactions involving these are considered investing activities so the proceeds from a sale of properties would rightfully be an investing activity.

4. Inventories (decrease). OPERATING ACTIVITIES.

Transactions that have to do with the day to day operations of the business fall under operating activities and this includes inventories decreasing.

5. Accounts payable (decrease). OPERATING ACTIVITIES.

Operations of the business includes accounts payables decreasing as well.

6. Depreciation and amortization. OPERATING ACTIVITIES.

Depreciation and amortization arise from using the fixed assets for day to day operations so this will fall under Operating activities.

In the following question you are asked to determine, other things equal, the effects of a given change in a determinant of dema
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

(1) the demand (D) for X will increase

(2) the equilibrium price (P) of X will Increase (Depending on a shift in the Demand curve)

(3) the equilibrium quantity (Q) of X. will Increase (Depending on a shift in the Demand curve)

Explanation:

Consumer expectations that the price of X will rise sharply in the future will:

1. Trigger <u>the demand for X to increase</u> because it is clear that the price of a good affects the demand, and also true that expectations about the future price do affect demand. For example, if people hear that the product X will be more expensive tomorrow, they may rush to the store to buy X now, and hold off buying tomorrow or else they will spend more money. This is a movement along the demand curve.

2. Cause a Possible Increase in Equilibrium Price: Given that as stated in 3 below, the consumers are willing to buy more at a price higher than the current price but  not as high as the expected increase in price, <u>such will not only cause a shift along the demand curve but it will cause a shift of the demand curve outwards and establish a new equilibrium price.</u>

3. Make the Equilibrium quantity of X to increase: Consumer expectations is a strong determinant of quantity demanded and <u>if price is expected to increase and customers are moved to buy more as a precaution, they may be willing to buy more at a higher price if that price is not as high as the price increase expected; this will put pressure on the demand curve and cause it to shift outwards, thereby establishing a new and higher equilibrium quantity.</u>
