Think of a business idea that offers opportunity for customer credit. Assuming that you want to adopt this idea, what criteria w

mezya [45]

Answer:

an example for a company that offers back customers credit is Jimmy Johns, they have online rewards that you can sign up with you or phone number or online to earn points for your meals. When you sign up they promote you to go buy a sandwich for your first free sandwich, after that every time you come back and buy something you will be racking up points for free things like sandwiches, chips, cookies, pickles, and drinks.They also have special offers like on your birthday you get a free sub (and after you sign up). If I wanted to do something similar with my business I make would make a rewards systems where you earn points for discounts.

Explanation:

Identify a business idea with which you can proceed. For example, you start a business that designs and creates landscaping for customers (front garden space, back patio, and so on).

This type of business provides opportunity for consumer credit, as most people would not want to pay a huge amount upfront in cash or even through credit cards.

Since the only other way is to offer credit facility, you will have to make a list of questions. You will then have to research the customer’s credit worthiness.

Check for the customer’s credit rating with the credit- and information-management companies, such as TransUnion or Equifax.

Check for the customers’ current financial positions. You can do so by finding out whether they have a secure job or a well-performing business, number of earning members in the family, and so on.

Depending on the information you acquire, you may decide either to offer complete credit, with a relatively shorter credit period, or only offer a certain percentage of credit spread across a wider credit period.

Paul [167]

Answer:

$444,000

Explanation:

current earnings and profits = (taxable income - income taxes) - meals expense + tax exempt income = ($600,000 - $155,000) - $3,000 + $2,000 = $444,000

Disallowed expenses are expenses made by an individual or company that the IRS doesn't allow to be deducted, e.g. meals. Tax exempt income is income that is not taxed by the IRS, e.g. DRD includes at least 70% of dividends received.

Deferred gains or unearned revenues are considered a liability and are not included in the income statement.

Andy can't make a deal with Danny. Andy has a Alex Rodriguez baseball card and would like to trade it to Danny for Danny's Alber

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

A. the double coincidence of wants problem.

Explanation:

Trade by barter involves the exchange of goods and services for goods and services without the use of money as a medium of exchange. In barter system, there is what we call double coincidence of wants. This is the economic situation whereby both parties holds what the other wants to buy, so they exchange the goods directly. Here, both parties agrees to buy and sell each other commodities. However, if one of the party is not interested in what the other party is offering, it causes a disruption in the trade. This disruption refers to a drawback in the system like the example described in the question.

Here, Andy couldn't make a deal with Danny even tho he wants what Danny is offering. This is because what Danny isn't interested in what Andy is offering. Thus, the double coincidence of want and barter trade can't occur between the two parties.

Charlie's brother, Alexander, also consumes apples (A) and bananas (B). Alexander's utility function happens to be U(A, B) = 5A

Andrei [34K]

Solution :

$U(A, B) = 5A + 2B$

a). Bundles $(40, 5)$ = U ( _____ , 2), lie on the same indifference curve. Suppose missing numbers is x.

So, $U(40, 5) = U(x, 2)$

(40 x 5) + (2 x 5) = 50x + (2 x 2)

210 - 4 = 5x

$x = 41.2$

So Alexander has $40$ apples and $5$ bananas. The indifference curve though $(40, 5)$ also include bundle.

Therefore, (41.2, 2)

b). $MRS_{BA} = \frac{MU_B}{MU_A}$

$=\frac{\delta U/\delta B}{\delta U/\delta A}$

$=\frac{2}{5}$

= 0.4

So Alexander has $40$ apples and $5$ bananas with this bundle. Alexander would like to give up $0.4$ unit apples for a banana.
