Answer:

b. $0, -$10, $0

Explanation:

Sam is the producer, and he was getting $50 for moving Sofia's lawn. When the government imposes a tax of $10 on his activity, he now receives $60, but because $10 of those $60 is paid in taxes, his surplus remains the same: $50, so the change in the producer's surplus is $0.

Sofia is the consumer, and she was paying $50, but now she pays $60, thus, her consumer surplus has changed by -$10.

The sum of the change in consumer and producer surplus is $10 ($0 + $10), which is the same as the growth of government revenue from the taxes imposed: $10, therefore, the deadweight loss is $0.

ira [324]

Answer:

d.$38,448

Explanation:

The computation of the expected change in net income is shown below:

The net purchase for one day = $11,760

For 20 days excluding discount period i.e 10 days , it would be

= $11,760 × 20 days

= $235,200

The interest would be

= $235,200 × 10%

= $23,520

Now the gross purchase  is

= (Net purchase × total number of days in a year) ÷ (1 - discount rate)

= ($11,760 × 365 days) ÷ (1 - 0.02)

= $4,292,400 ÷ 0.98

= $4,380,000

The discount is

= $4,380,000 × 0.02

= $87,600

After tax rate, the change in net income would be

= ($87,600 - $23,520) × (1 - tax rate)

= $64,080 × 0.60

= $38,448

Which of the following is an advantage of a sole proprietorship?
FromTheMoon [43]
B.  Sole proprietorships are not very highly regulated, so they are easy to get started.   Most forms of business are easy to expand if they succeed!  Getting financing really depends on how likely the lenders think the business is to succeed, irrespective of format.  The owner is directly liable for the debts of a sole proprietorship, but even if you incorporate, the bank is likely to want a personal guarantee of the owner for any debt of a new corporation, so it's pretty much the same deal.   Taxes could be higher or lower, depending on how the business does and what other sources of income the proprietor has (like their day job!)
