Answer: a) increase in the demand for Kindles.

Explanation: the substitution effect for substitute goods gives that, if the price of good A rises, the demand for good B rises. Since a substitute good is a good that can be used in place of another, they are goods that a consumer perceives as similar or are comparable, in such a way that having more of one good causes the consumer to desire less of the other good. From the viewpoint of price, and given that consumers always prefer to spend less in instances where two goods are substitutes, it then means that Kindle can be used and preferred in place of Nooks given that the price of Nooks had gone up. Therefore, increasing the price of Nooks causes a corresponding increase in the demand for Kindles.

Answer:

corrected amounts cost of goods sold = $916500

corrected amounts Retained Earnings = $1159000

Explanation:

given data

cost of goods sold = $880,000

retained earnings = $1,230,000

ending inventories 2016 = $34,500

ending inventories 2017 = $71,000

to find out

corrected amounts cost of goods sold and retained earnings

solution

we get here first corrected amounts for 2017 cost of goods sold will be here as

corrected amounts cost of goods sold = cost of goods sold - ending inventories 2016 + ending inventories 2017 .........1

corrected amounts cost of goods sold = $880,000 - $34,500 + $71,000

corrected amounts cost of goods sold = $916500

and now we get corrected amounts Retained Earnings that will be as

corrected amounts Retained Earnings = retained earnings - ending inventories 2017

corrected amounts Retained Earnings = $1,230,000 - $71,000

corrected amounts Retained Earnings = $1159000

Answer:

informed consent

Explanation:

Based on the information provided, this is a violation of informed consent. This is because informed consent can only be granted when the individual signing the consent forms COMPLETELY understands and accepts the information presented in the forms. In this scenario, the family may speak English but since their native language is Korean and the consent forms are not offered in Korean there is a large possibility that some of the information may not be fully understood by the family. Thus they are not fully informed when signing.

frozen [14]

Answer:

Requirement 1

High Point = March

Low Point = January

Requirement 2

Variable rate for tanning $0.41 per tanning appointment

Fixed cost per month $1,457

Requirement 3

Total Cost = $1,457 + $0.41 × Activity Level

Requirement 4

Total predicted cost for September $ 2,482

Total fixed cost for September $1,457

Total predicted variable cost for September $1,025

Explanation:

Requirement 1

High Point = March

Low Point = January

Requirement 2

Variable Cost = Difference in Overhead Cost (High - Low)/ Difference in Activity (High - Low)

= $2,810 - $1,744 / 3,300 - 700

= $1,066/ 2,600

= $0.41

Fixed Cost Component = Total Overhead Cost - Variable Cost × Selected Activity.

Lets Select, January 700 $1,744

Fixed Cost Component = Total Overhead Cost - Variable Cost × Selected Activity.

= $1,744 - $0.41 × 700

= $1,457

Requirement 3

Cost formula for tanning services

Total Cost = Fixed Cost + Variable Cost

thus,

Total Cost = $1,457 + $0.41 × Activity Level

Requirement 4

Total Cost = $1,457 + $0.41 × Activity Level

= $1,457 + $0.41 × 2,500

= $ 2,482
