Answer:

The price on the black market tends to be higher.

Explanation:

When price ceilings are placed in legal markets, buyers are able to get goods and services at lower prices. But sellers may not be willing to sell unlimited supply of goods at the low price. This could lead to artificial scarcity, and formation of black markets.

The main aim of black markets is for suppliers to maximise profits, so a supplier is able to sell his goods at an amount above the price ceiling set in the legal market.

Also black markets are characterised by practices such as tax evasion, which are beneficial to the suppliers.

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer: The cost of the equipment is $66,500.

Explanation: Under IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment, the cost of an asset comprises:

purchase price plus import duties and taxes
any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in a manner intended by management
the initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located

In the question, $60,000 was the purchase price, the transportation cost of $1,000 was necessary to bring the asset to the location intended by management, $3,000 was the sales tax and the installation cost of $2,500 was also necessary for the asset to function as intended by management. So all these costs would be capitalized as the cost of the equipment as $66,500.
