Answer:
I. If labor and capital are perfect substitutes in production, the isoquant is a straight, downward-sloping line.
II. If a company needs to use inputs in fixed proportion such that the capital to labor ratio is always 2, the firm's isoquants are L-shaped.
Explanation:
Perfectly substittuable goods have straight downward sloping ICs, and have corner solutions
.
Complementary goods (used in fixed proportions) are L shaped always
, In case of min(x,y) function, the answer is the value of x or y which ever is minimum and not their sum.
Therefore, Only statements I and II are true.
Answer: $0
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that Nick and Katelyn paid $1,600 and $2,100 in qualifying expenses for their two daughters, Nicole and Naomi, respectively, to attend the University of Nevada and that Nicole is a sophomore and Naomi is a freshman.
We are further told that Nick and Katelyn's AGI is $202,000. Based on the above scenario, their allowable American opportunity tax credit will be $0. This is because when AGI is more than $180,000 for such taxpayers, the credit is being phased out.

A market failure refers to the situaion where the market forces fail to efficiently allocate resources. It happens because of a number of reasons such as externalities, monopoly, asymmetrical information, tragedy of commons etc.

Cost on January 1 2016 = $1,250,000
Life = 10 years
Therefore,
Double-declining depreciation rate = 2*(1,250,000/10)/1,250,000 = 2*0.1 = 2*10% = 20%
Book value at end of 2016 = 1,250,000 - (1,250,000*20/100) = $1,000,000
Book value at end of 2017 = 1,000,000 - (1,000,000*20/100) = $800,000
Book value at end of 2018 = 800,000 - (800,000*20/100) = $640,000
Changing to straight line depreciation:
Life remaining = 7 years
Book value = $640,000
Depreciation expense per year = 640,000/7 = $91,428.57
Therefore, depreciation expense for 2019 = $91,428.57
The net income is $32,961
<u>Explanation</u>:
To calculate the net income, we will classify the transaction into income and expenses, and compute the difference between their totals;
Income;
Merchandise inventory Sept. 1 = $ 7,740
Merchandise inventory Sept. 30 = $ 11,372
Sales = $ 50,575
Total = $ 69,687
Expenses;
Purchases = $ 33,114
Selling expenses = $ 677
Administrative expense = $ 665
Rent Revenue = $ 1,118
Interest expense = $ 1,152
Total = $ 36,726
Net income = Total income - Total expenses
= 69,687 - 36,716
= $ 32,961
