Options:
<em>a. Shift to the left, causing the prices of carrots to rise</em>
<em>b. Shift to the left, causing the prices of carrots to fall</em>
<em>c. Stay the same</em>
<em>d. The supply curve does not shift. Only the demand curve shifts.</em>
<u>Answer:</u>
<u>a. Shift to the left, causing the prices of carrots to rise</u>
<u>Explanation:</u>
Indeed, going by the law of supply and holding all other factors constant, we would expect the supply curve to shift to the left, which implies that there would be an increase in the price of carrots.
What this means is that because there are now fewer carrots in the market as a result of the effects of the bad weather, there would be scarcity and so sellers would increase prices.
Answer: $15,060
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that Ben and Jerry were shareholders of Water Ice Inc., an S corp. On Jan. 1, 1998, Ben owned 40 shares and Jerry owned 60 shares.
We are further told that Ben sold his shares to Joe for $10,000 on March 31, 1998 and that the corp. reported a $50,000 loss at the end of 1998. The loss that will be allocated to Joe will be:
= $50,000 × 40% × 9/12
= $50,000 × 0.4 × 0.75
= $15,000
The closest figure we have close to that is $15,060 which is option B
Answer:
The semi annual rate is 4.88%
Explanation:
semi annual rate = [((1+r)^(1/n)) -1]
= [((1+10%)^(1/2)) -1]
= 4.88%
Therefore, the semi-annual rate (i.e. periodic return per six months) do you require (i.e. need to earn such that this implies 10% earned per year when you get to compound semi-annually) is 4.88%.
Answer: 
Explanation: A supply equation shows us the mathematical relationship between quantity supplied and the price of the good. Since price and supply are positively related, P must carry a positive sign in the supply equation.
Given, supply is Qs=4P - 24
P is the price paid by consumers in the market.
When a $3 tax is levied , price sellers receive becomes P-T = P - 3
So, the new supply equation will be
Answer:
double-blind experiment
Explanation:
A double-blind experiment is one in which both the experimenter and the subjects don't have knowledge of which treatment is given to which participant.
The aim of this method is to avoid bias especially from demand characteristics (experimenter expectation) and placebo effect (perception of benefit from an ineffective substance).
Double-blind experiment is used when CureAll develops a new drug to treat restless legs syndrome, and test the drug's efficacy is designed in such a way that neither the experimenter administering the drug or participants knows which drug is administered.
