Answer:
Many economists believe that the market for wheat in the United States is an almost perfectly competitive market. If one firm discovers a technology that makes its wheat taste better and have fewer calories than all other wheat offered in the market, the wheat market would become less competitive because the products would no longer be similar in the wheat market- Option c.
Explanation:
Option c is the correct answer- the products would no longer be similar in the wheat market, the reason being that people with different taste preferences would prefer either of the two kinds of wheat available in the market, therefore making them less concentrated.
............... total surplus INCREASES when the price of ethanol increases. When the supply curve for a product is upward sloping, it indicates that more of that product is been produced. Thus, in the question given more of corn is been produced, if the price of ethanol increases, then total surplus will also increase. Total surplus is the summation of the consumer and producer surplus.
Answer:
capitalize the new cost as an asset to be amortized over future periods expected to benefit
Explanation:
A capitalized cost is a cost which is added to the cost basis of a fixed asset on a company's balance sheet. This Capitalized costs are sustained from the purchase or construction of fixed assets. Example of such costs are costs of materials, sales taxes, labor, transportation, and interest incurred to finance the construction of the asset.
This is usually done for items that would be used over a long period of time, therefore the item is capitalized and amortized or depreciated over its future periods.
