Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": the price is relatively unimportant in allocating resources.

Explanation:

Centrally planned economies or command economies are those managed by the government that dictates production quotas and distribution levels and determines prices. Private ownership is null in centrally planned economies since the government is the owner and distributor of land, labor, and capital.

<em>Allocation price is irrelevant when it comes to command economies since only those vital goods such as staples are paid attention.</em>

sattari [20]

Answer:

option D - $22,000 gain

Explanation:

the gain can be calculated by using the following relation

Face Value + Unamortized Premium - Purchase Price = gain

where,

Face Value - $1,000,000

Unamortized Premium - 60% x $20,000

Purchase Price - 99% x $1,000,000

putting all value to get gain or loss on the retirement

= $1,000,000 + (60% x $20,000) - (99% x $1,000,000)

= $22,000 gain

Supply of Children's Books Price (dollars) Quantity (books) $12 24 10 20 8 16 6 12 4 8 2 4 0 0 Instructions: Round your answers

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

40%

Explanation:

the percentage change in price using the midpoint method = {(P₂ - P₁) / [(P₂ + P₁)/2]} x 100

= {($6- $4) / [($6 + $4)/2]} x 100 = [$2 / ($10 / 2)] x 100 = ($2 / $5) x 100 = 0.4 x 100 = 40%

The advantage of using the midpoint method for calculating percentage changes is that it doesn't matter if the change is positive or negative, e.g. it will yield the same result if the price increases or decreases in the same amounts.

Look at the tables below, which show, respectively, the willingness to pay and willingness to accept of buyers and sellers of in

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

(a) The equilibrium quantity is Q* = 6 (b) The quantity supplied by private sellers is Q* = 0 (c) The new new equilibrium price is $9, the new equilibrium quantity is = 5 bags, and the bags were oranges were over produced is Q* = 1

Explanation:

Solution

(a) When the equilibrium price is at $8, the the quantity of equilibrium is stated as:

From the data given, when the price at equilibrium is $8, then the six consumers namely, bob, barb, bill, brat, Brent, Betty were all willingly to pay much more than the equilibrium price and the 6 producers namely, Carlos, Courtney, chuck, Cindy, Craig, chad accepted, because the price at equilibrium is greater than the minimum accepted price.

So,

The equilibrium price is Q* = 6

(b) If all the buyers are free riders, then the maximum willingness of the price of buyers is $0, because the willingness of the buyer's is lesser than the accepted minimum price of the sellers, for this producers will not be willingly to produce, thus the supplied quantity by private sellers is 0

Hence,

Q* = 0

So,

The new price of equilibrium is = $9

At the new equilibrium price $9 where 5 consumer and producer were willing and accepting to pay more than the equilibrium price

So,

The new equilibrium quantity is Q* = 5 bags

Now,

If the new equilibrium quantity of 5 bags is an optimal quantity,

Then,

(6-5) which results to 1 bag were overproduced.

Therefore,

Q* = 1
