kaheart [24]

Answer:

The normal balance of liabilities is a credit.

Explanation:

In the double entry system one account must be debited in order for the other to be credited.

There are different balances for each account. For the accounts with normal credit balance a credit causes it to increase while a debit decreases it.

For accounts with negative balance a credit reduces its balance while a debit increases its balance.

- Asset: Debit

- Expense: Debit

- Dividends: Debit

- Liability: Credit

- Owner’s Equity: Credit

- Revenue: Credit

- Retained Earnings: Credit

Liabilities are debt owed by a business. When payment is given out to settle a debt (a debit) it reduces to amount a business owes.

If more loans are collected (a credit) the liability figure increases.

So liability has a normal credit balance

Mr. Rational has $27 that he plans to spend purchasing 5 units of good X (priced at $3 per unit) and 6 units of good Y (priced a
allsm [11]

Answer:

Option A, buy less of X and more of Y is correct.

Explanation:

The amount that Mr. Rational is going to spend = $27

Quantity of good X = 5 units

Price of good X (Px) = $3 per unit

Marginal utility of 5th unit of X (MUx) = 30

Quantity of good Y = 6 units

Price of good Y (Py) = $2 per unit

Marginal utility of 6th unit of Y (MUy) = 18

Now \ find \  \frac{MUx}{Px} = \frac{30}{3} = 10 \\

Now \  \frac{MUy}{Py} = \frac{18}{2} = 9

Since \ the  \ \frac{MUx}{Px} is \ greater \ than \  \frac{MUy}{Py}.

So good x will be substituted for y in order to reach the consumer equilibrium.

\frac{MUx}{Px} =  \frac{MUy}{Py}

Thus, Option a. buy less of X and more of Y is correct.
