Other things being equal, an increase in the number of sellers of a good will _____ for that good.
Ahat [919]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": decrease equilibrium price and increase equilibrium quantity .

Explanation:

An increase in the number of sellers in a market of a certain good implies the quantity demanded for that good will increase, thus the equilibrium quantity will be higher. According to the demand law, if the quantity demanded goes up, the price is likely to decrease, so, the equilibrium price will be lower.

Thus, <em>the increase in sellers will raise the equilibrium quantity decreasing the equilibrium price.</em>

Suppose the town of boone has a total population of 50,000 people. of those, 45,000 people are employed. there are 1,000 full-ti
slega [8]
Population - 50,000
Employed - 45,000
Students not looking for work - 1,000

To calculate Boone's unemployment rate you'll use the formula: 
Unemployment rate = number of people unemployed / labor force

Those that fall into the unemployment category are those that are not working but are actively looking/wanting to work. Students, stay-at-home moms etc that are not wanting to work, though unemployed, to not fall into this category.

The labor force is made up of everyone willing and able to work.

First, let's subtract the students who are not looking for work from the population so get the labor force. 50,000 - 1,000 = 49,000 (labor force)

Next, to get the number of people unemployed let us subtract the labor force of 49,000 by those already employed of 45,000. 49,000 - 45,000 = 4,000

Finally, we are able to calculate the unemployment rate of Boone. 
Unemployment rate = number of people unemployed / labor force
Unemployment rate = 4,000/49,000= .081 multiply by 100 to get the percentage. 8.1%
Unemployment rate of Boone is 8.1%

solniwko [45]

Answer:

Producers might offer product guarantees and warranties

Explanation:

In business, lemon problems refers to the problems that might occur during transaction that is caused by different information possessed by the sellers and the buyers

<u>For example,</u>

Let's say that Person A offered to sell 10 lemons for $1. Person B is interested to purchase it since average price for 10 lemons is $2.  Person B believed that the transaction is worth it.

But, Person A knows that the Lemons sold is in bad condition before he even sell it. Person B doesn't know this, so when he receive the lemon, the value of the product become lower than he expected.

Offering guarantees can solve this problem. The buyers can obtain their money back if the condition of the product is not as promised by the sellers.

Alika [10]

Answer:

Dr Depletion expense 87,465

    Cr Accumulated depletion, coal mine 87,465

Explanation:

total depreciable costs = $476,000 + $119,000 + $95,200 - $190,400 = $499,800

depletion rate = $499,800 / 4,760 tons of coal = $105 per ton of coal

depletion expense during year 1 = $105 per ton x 833 tons = $87,465

Depletion expense is similar to depreciation expense, and is primarily used by extracting companies, e.g. mines, oil companies. Accumulated depletion decreases the book value of the asset.
