Answer:

The correct answer is (A)

Explanation:

The price ceiling is a threshold price and consumers are not allowed to sell a product above that price. When the government impose price ceiling the profit of sellers usually decrease and sometimes the government provide subsidies to overcome those losses.  If the government impose a price ceiling on the sale of laptop computers the number of firms selling laptop decreases due to high competition and low profits.

Rent controls force landlords to price apartments below the equilibrium price level. An immediate effect is a shortage (excess d
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

Option (A) and (D) are correct.

Explanation:

When there is an enforcement by the government for rent control and force landlords to lower the apartment price below the equilibrium level.

This means that there is a fall in the price of apartments then this will lead to increase the demand for apartments by the consumers. Therefore, demand for apartments exceeds the supply of apartments. It will be less profitable for the suppliers to increase the supply of apartments. Hence, this will lead to fall in the quality of apartments because landlords are less interested in the maintenance of the apartments.

Lower price of apartments also results in black market. Most of the landlords are trying to fool the government and charge higher prices from the consumers. This will be done with no proper paper work and legal documentation. So, there is a creation of black market.

solniwko [45]

Answer:

The right answer is A. Liabilities increased by $1.0 million in 2018

Explanation:

During 2017 and 2018, we have the following information:

+ In 2017, there is $2 million wages earned but not yet paid, so, Wages payable at the end of 2017 should be amounted to $2 million.

+ In 2018, there is another $8 million wages earned. At the same period, there is $7 million wages paid which is distributed as followed: $2 million to clear all Wages payable in 2017 and the other $5 million to clear $5 million out of $8 million wages payable in 2018. So, the only wages liability outstanding at the end of 2018 is the amount of $3 million earned in 2018 but not yet paid ($8 million - $5 million).

=> Liabilities in 2018 increases $1.0 million in comparison with the year 2017 ( $3 million - $2 million).
