Answer:

The answer is:

1. consumers' expenditure increases by $150 billion

2. output will decrease by $600 billion

Explanation:

Tax impact:

$300 billion x 0.5

= $150 billion.

If taxes are lowered by $300 billion, consumers' expenditure increases by $150 billion because with lower tax, there is money money to be spent because their disposable income has increased.

Government spending impact:

$300/(1-0.5)

$300/0.5

=$600 billion.

Due to government spending that has increased by this amount, output will decrease by this amount too because government has directly competed with firms that should have used this money to increase the total output.

Therefore, net effect on total output is $300billion($600 - $300)

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": a price increase results in higher​ profits; otherwise, the market is too narrow.

Explanation:

When firms are interested in acquisitions or mergers they have to determine if the target company is part of a relevant market. The term refers to the competitive conditions that offer the economy where the target company is located. The relevant market also considers the type of product or service the target company offers.

<em>Relevant markets optimal for mergers are those where an increase in prices generates more revenue for firms. If there are too many competitors offering undifferentiated products, the market will not allow organizations to profit from price increases. Those markets, then, are too narrow.</em>

inysia [295]

Answer:

c. $385,958.90

Explanation:

<em>Step 1 Determine the Total Cost Incurred for Both materials and Conversion </em>

<em>Raw Materials</em>

Opening Work In Process                  $200,000

Add Cost Added during the year    $2,000,000

Total                                                   $2,200,000

<em>Conversion</em>

Opening Work In Process                  $200,000

Add Cost Added during the year    $2,500,000

Total                                                   $2,700,000

<em>Step 2 Determine the total equivalent units for materials and conversion</em>

<em>Materials </em>

Closing work in process 100 × 100%                         = 100

Completed and Transferred (600+200-100)×100% =700

Total                                                                            =800

<em>Conversion </em>

Closing work in process 100 × 30%                          =  30

Completed and Transferred (600+200-100)×100% =700

Total                                                                            =730

<em>Step 3 Determine equivalent cost per unit of materials and conversion costs</em>

Materials = $2,200,000/800 = $2,750

Conversion = $2,700,000/730 = $3,699

<em>Step 4 Determine the cost assigned to Ending WIP</em>

Materials  ($2,750×100)           = $275,000

Conversion Cost ($3,699×30) = $110,970

Total                                           =$385970
