Answer:
A. $0 gain, $36,000 basis
Explanation:
In the distribution, from the information given, Sarah does not recognize any gain or loss.
However, given that
She had $56000 basis at end of year prior to distribution.
Then receives $20000 from distribution after reallocating her basis in SF to cash in amount equal to distribution
Therefore,
Her basis left = 56000 - 20000
= $36000

Answer: Option A
Explanation: In simple words, elasticity refers to the change in demand for a product due to change in its price.
If the price for the gasoline remains high in the long run then at one point substitution effect will come into play and consumers will shift their demand to the alternatives available.
However the product like gasoline will not show decrease in demand in the short run due to price as it more of an essential good to daily life.
Thus, the correct option is A.
Today, Colombia is the dominant producer of U.S. cut flowers, with roses, carnations, spray chrysanthemums and Alstroemeria among its top crops
Answer:
q1 = 910
q2 = 910
Explanation:
Given:
Q = 2800 - 1000p
Marginal cost = $0.07 per unit
Q = 2800 - 1000p


Let's calculate profit of firm 1:
TR = p1 q1
MR = MC = 0.07
Cross multiplying:
2800 - 2q₁ - q₂ = 70
2800 - 2q₁ = 70 + q₂
2800 - 70 - 2q₁ = q₂
2730 - 2q₁ = q₂...............(1)
Let's calculate profit of firm 2:
TR = p₁ q₂
MR = MC = 0.07
Cross multiplying:
2800 - q₁ - 2q₂ = 70
2800 - 2q₂ = 70 + q₁
2800 - 70 - 2q₂ = q₁
2730 - 2q₂ = q₁................... (2)
Substitute 2730 - 2q₂ for q₁ in (1)...
Thus:
2730 - 2q₁ = q₂
2730 - 2(2730 - 2q₂) = q₂
2730 - 5460 + 4q₂ = q₂
-2730 + 4q₂ = q₂
-2730 = q₂ - 4q₂
-2730 = - 3q₂
q₂ = -2730/-3
q₂ = 910
Substituting 910 for q₂ in (2):
2730 - 2q₂ = q₁
2730 - 2(910)= q₁
2730 - 1820 = q₁
910 = q₁
q₁ = 910
The Cournot equilibrium quantities are: q₁= 910; and q₂ = 910
