Answer:
The correct answer is option C.
Explanation:
Suppose there is pessimism in an economy because of corporate scandals, international tensions, loss of confidence, etc. This is going to adversely affect the economy. Because of corporate scandals, the investment will decline. Loss of confidence in consumers will cause a reduction in consumption spending. International tensions cause net exports to decline.
All of this causes aggregate demand to decline. The aggregate demand curve moves to the left. This leftward shift causes both the quantity of output and price to fall. As output fall real GDP will decline as well.

Explanation:
Pam and Jon's dividend income of $134,500 each [($185,000 Accumulated E&P + $111,000 current E&P) / 2],
Statement of distribution for shareholders for tax purpose :-
Pam Jon
Total distribution $185,000 $185,000
less: Dividend income $134,500 $134,500
<em> $50,500 $50,500</em>
less : Stock basis $25,900 $103,600
Capital gain $24,600 $0
Pam has a taxable gain of $24,600 which reduces the stock basis to $0, whereas Jon has not any taxable gain but the stock basis has reduced to $53,100 [$103,600- $50,500]
Answer:
$11,880,000
Explanation:
Depletion is an estimated cost of a natural resource that is extracted. This resource is expensed as the extraction is made.
As per given data
Value of Rights = $60,000,000
Land Value = $600,000
As we know land does not depreciate or depleted.
Depletion Value = $60,000,000 - $600,000 = 59,400,000
Estimated resources = 9 million units
Resources extracted in the period = 1.8 million units
Depletion expense is based on ratio of the amount of extraction in period to the total expected resource.
Depletion Expenses = $59,400,000 x 1.8 million units / 9 million units = $11,880,000
Answer:
(i) The farm can cover its revenue using its total variable cost, therefore the farm will continue producing 200 units
(ii) The farm cannot cover its revenue using its total variable cost, therefore the farm will shut down
(iii) The two relevant points on supply curve will be: (Price = $12 & Quantity = 0) and (Price = $25 & Quantity = 200)
Explanation:
(i)According to given data, When output is 200 but price is $20, this price is equal to ATC, so the farm breaks even. But since this price is higher than AVC of $15, the farm can cover its revenue using its total variable cost, therefore the farm will continue producing 200 units.
(ii) When output is 200 but price is $12, this price is equal to ATC, so the farm makes economic loss. Also, this price is lower than AVC of $15, so the farm cannot cover its revenue using its total variable cost, therefore the farm will shut down.
(iii) The farm's supply curve is the portion of its Marginal cost (MC) curve above the minimum point of AVC. Since price equals MC, the two relevant points on supply curve will be: (Price = $12 & Quantity = 0) and (Price = $25 & Quantity = 200).
