Answer:

The answer is: B) The statement is false. A decrease in the price of digital cameras would decrease the demand for non-digital cameras, but a decrease in the price of non-digital cameras would not cause the demand for non-digital cameras to decrease.

Explanation:

Suppose we are not currently living in 2019, instead we are back 12 years to 2007 (before the iPhone). Back then , digital cameras were still used by common "unprofessional" users. Digital cameras were an improvement compared to non-digital cameras, so the price of non-digital cameras were much lower than their digital counterparts.

If the price of digital cameras decreased, then the price of non-digital cameras would decrease also. For example, if luxury car companies like Mercedes Benz started selling sedan cars for $20,000, Ford and Chevrolet would be forced to lower the price of their cars since they wouldn't be able to compete with MB at the same price.

But a decrease in the price of non-digital cameras would never decrease their demand. Something else would have caused that decrease. Probably digital cameras became so cheap that everyone could afford one and since they were so much better than non-digital cameras, people simply stopped buying non-digital cameras.

Refer to the T-account below: Manufacturin Overhead (2) (3) (4) (5) 9,000 (12) 15,000 80,000 30,000 159,000 Bal. 167,000 167,000
Flura [38]

Answer:

C) Overapplied overhead

Explanation:

The ending balance of $8,000 represents the overhead overapplied as the credit side is more than the debit side related to production i.e as the credit side is $167,000 and the debit side is $159,000 so the credit side is greater than the $8,000

Therefore the correct option is c.

Hence, the other options are wrong

C has a $100,000 traditional whole life insurance policy with a $30,000 cash surrender value. He applies for and receives a $10,
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

If C were disabled, his beneficiaries would receive $70,000, less any outstanding interest charges

Explanation:

Policy loans can generally amount up to 100% of the cash surrender value of the policy, in this case C only requested $10,000 (1/3 of the cash value). This type of loan is fully collateralized by the cash value of the policy and the borrower can even miss some payments or pay on a later date because interests keep adding.

This type of loan can carry a fixed or variable interest rate, depends on the insurer.

If C surrenders his policy, he will receive the total cash surrender value minus the loan amount = $30,000 - $10,000 = $20,000

If C dies, his beneficiaries would receive the full benefits minus the loan amount = $100,000 - $10,000 = $90,000

Tpy6a [65]

Answer: higher; lower

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that three firms are currently producing and selling in a market. When one of the three firms exits the market, economists expect that there will be a rise in the equilibrium price while there will be a reduction in the equilibrium quantity.

This is because when one producer leaves, there will be less supply of the good that is sold, this will eventually lead to a rise in price.
