Answer:

Californian citizen

Explanation:

For a Californian citizen, the maximum number of meals and units of leisure they could possibly acquire per day are:

M_C = \frac{\$100}{\$20} =5\\L_C = \frac{\$100}{\$10} =10

For a Mississippi citizen, the maximum number of meals and units of leisure they could possibly acquire per day are:

M_M = \frac{\$50}{\$10} =5\\L_M = \frac{\$50}{\$10} =5

Both citizens can acquire the same number of meals, but the Californian citizen can acquire twice as many units of leisure than the Mississippi citizen. Therefore, the Californian citizen is more well-off in terms of the bundles of goods they can consume.

If bonds with a face value of $208,000 are issued at 97, the amount of cash proceeds is ____
madam [21]

Answer:

C) $201,760

Explanation:

To compute the amount of cash proceeds, we have to multiply the bonds face value with the issued price percentage.  

Since only issue price is given, so we assume it is in percentage form because the number of shares is not given in the question. So, we assume this.  

In mathematically,  

Cash proceeds = Face value × 0.97

                          = $208,000 × 0.97

                          = $201,760
