The assets are recognized by a company at the market value on the day of transaction. The market value of land and building was $140,000 (45000 + 95000). Thus, the stock issued against these assets was issued at $14 per share ($140000/10000) and a premium of $4 / share was received.
The Land is debited by $45000 and building by $95000 while we credit the common stock at par value $100000 and credit the premium $40000.
C is correct. As a result of a tariff, prices for domestic steel consumers go up so D is false. Option B is false because it does not make the market fair for everyone as now domestic producers can charge a higher price since foreign competition is being excluded. Since B, D are false it would make sense that A is also untrue as consumers are now suffering while it is the producers who benefit.
The correct answer is d. Trade restrictions often provide benefits to highly visible special interest groups while imposing a less visible cost on the general populace.
Explanation:
A trade restriction is an artificial restriction to the exchange of goods and / or services between two countries. It is the byproduct of protectionism. However, the term is controversial because what a party can see as a trade restriction can be seen as a way to protect consumers from inferior, harmful or dangerous products. For example, Germany demanded that beer production adhere to its purity law. The law, originally implemented in Bavaria in 1516 and eventually converted into a law for the newly unified Germany in 1871, meant that many foreign beers could not be sold in Germany as "beer." This law was annulled in 1987 by the Court of Justice of the European Union, but remains voluntarily followed by many German breweries.
