Answer: D
Explanation:
We are given a comparison between 'economic growth' and 'growth energy consumption' and told that the first increased and the second did not. We are also told that a certain amount of oil is being saved by energy improvements. As it is difficult to infer a likely answer in 'must or could be true' type questions, we'll go over all of the options, the Alternative approach.
A. We have no information on the relative ease of finding new sources of oil. No
B. We have no information on how to reduce oil imports. No
C. We have no information on what caused energy consumption to remain steady. No
D. This is exactly what happened so is true. This is almost certainly our answer, let's go over (Correct )
E. We have no information on the link between development of energy sources and growth. No
(D) is our answer; note that all other answers explicitly added information not in the original passage. This is what you need to watch out for in these types of questions.
For this case what you should do is to clear q in both equations with a price of p = 16 $
We have then:
For the demand
p = 48 - 2q
q = (48 - p) / 2
q = (48 - 16) / 2
q = 16
For the supply:
p = 12 + q
q = p-12
q = 16-12
q = 4
Answer:
if the town imposes a price ceiling of 16 dollars, and the quantity demand will be 16 while quantity supply will be 4.
Answer:
Option D is correct
Explanation:
The reason is that the company desires to emphasize control over the economic down turn. Most companies collapse in recession due financial distress. And salary of permanent employees is fixed cost which the company has to pay whatever the situation is. Using freelancer's facilities and temporary workers helps in controlling the cost of the product and ensures the survival of the company.
Answer:
The answer is: $18, 750
Explanation:
The double-declining-balance(DDB) method entails computing depreciation of an asset at an accelerated rate. This method is employed when the asset loses value quickly and is expected to generate more revenue at the earlier stages of its useful life. The depreciation is higher at the beginning and lower close to the end of the asset's useful life. The depreciation is computed as follows:
Depreciation = 2 * straight line depreciation percentage * Book value at the beginning of the period
Machine cost: $75, 000
Residual Value: $5, 000
Estimated Life: 4 years/18, 000 hours
Straight line depreciation percentage : 100/4 = 25%
Depreciation Year 1 on DDB = 2 * 25% * $75, 000
= $37, 500
Depreciation Year 2 on DDB = 2 * 25% * ($75, 000 -$37, 500)
= $18, 750
