Answer:
Shut down
$1650
$1500
Explanation:
A perfect competition is characterised by many buyers and sellers of homogeneous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.
In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit. If in the short run firms are earning economic profit, in the long run firms would enter into the industry. This would drive economic profit to zero.
Also, if in the short run, firms are earning economic loss, in the long run, firms would exit the industry until economic profit falls to zero.
in the shut run, a perfect competition should shut down if average variable cost is greater than price. this is the case for this firm $10 is greater than $8.
total fixed cost = average fixed cost x quantity produced = $11 x 150 = $1650
Total variable cost = average variable cost x quantity produced = $10 x 150 = $1500
Answer:
Australia has purchasing-power parity with the U.S.
Explanation:
A basket of goods costs $800 in the US. The same basket costs 1,000 euros in France and 960 Australian dollars in Australia.
The nominal exchange rate for euros is .80 euros per U.S. dollar and for Australian dollars, it is 1.2 Australian dollars per U.S. dollar.
The purchasing power parity theory compares the currency of two countries through a basket of goods. The currency of the two countries is in equilibrium or is at par if a basket of goods cost the same in both the countries.
This method compares the economic productivity and standard of living in two countries.
Converting the value of basket in France into US dollars,
=
= $1,250
Converting the value of basket in Australia into US dollars,
=
= $800
The cost of the basket of goods is same in Australia. This indicates that Australia has purchasing-power parity with the U.S.
Answer:
The depreciation for 2020 is $233.33
Explanation:
Under the MACRS, computer useful life is 5 years.
The depreciation rate for every year, applying double declining method is: 100% / 5 = 20%. So, depreciation expenses for first year of the computer is calculated as: Cost of the computer x 20% = = 2,000 x 20% = $400.
As the computer is purchased in May, the year 2020 would only account for 7 month out of the first year of depreciation. Thus 2020 depreciation expenses = First year depreciation x 7/12 = 400 x 7/12 = $233.33

Accrual basis accounting
Explanation:
Under Accrual basis of accounting, income is recognized when it is earned and not when actual cash is paid or received.
