Answer:
A) Janice will purchase 3 pounds of potatoes since she will buy them until her consumer surplus ≤ 0. The fourth pound of potatoes costs $1, and Janice is willing to pay only $0.30, so her consumer surplus s negative (-$0.70).
Consumer surplus is the difference between the price that a customer is willing and able to pay for a good and the good actual price.
B) If Janice only had $2 to spend, she would buy 2 pounds of potatoes, since her consumer surplus is positive at 2 pounds.
first pound costs $1, and Janice is willing to pay $1.50, consumer surplus = $0.50
second pound costs $1, and Janice is willing to pay $1.14, consumer surplus = $0.14
The correct answer would be d. all of the above
The best example of how companies are upgrading themselves to meet changing customer preferences is personified in option (C) making online shopping services available.
Since customers nowadays prefer to shop online more often than not, many companies are now providing online marketplaces in combination with their traditional brick and mortar stores. Some companies do not even have a pop up store – they purely do their transactions online.
Answer:
Option C is correct one.
Interest expense 773
Discount on bonds payable 73
Cash 700
Explanation:
2016 interest expense = initial issue price, which is the 1/1/2014 book value x the market (effective) interest rate
= $9,668 x 08
= $773
Cash interest payment
= maturity value of the bond x the stated interest rate = $10,000 x .07
= $700
Amortization of discount on bonds payable
= interest expense - interest cash payment
= $773 - $700.
= $73
