Answer:
Option A is a price floor, option B is binding and option C is price ceiling.
Explanation:
It is stated that the equilibrium price of a donut is $1.50.
If the government institutes a legal minimum price of $1.80 for a donut, that would be an example of price floor because the price cannot be lower than that. $1.80 is higher than $1.50 so it serves a purpose.
Option B is binding since any donut shop that wants to pay better wages is prohibited from hiring more workers.
The government prohibiting donut shops from selling a donut for more than $1.10 is an example of floor ceiling because the price can not go higher than $1.10.
I hope this answer helps.

Answer:
attached table
Explanation:
We use goal seek of excel to determinate the market rate:
Which is the rate that discounting the coupon payment and maturity matches the 5,421,236 we receive for the bond:
C 200,000.000
time 10
rate 0.<em>030117724</em>
PV $1,705,016.0533
Maturity 5,000,000.00
time 10.00
rate <em>0.030117724</em>
PV 3,716,219.95
PV c $1,705,016.0533
PV m $3,716,219.9467
Total $5,421,236.0000
Now, we determiante the schedule by doing as follow:
carrying value x market rate = interest expense
cash outlay per period: face value x coupon rate
the amortization will be the difference
after each payment we adjust the carrying value by subtracting the amortization
Pricing objectives that seek profit maximization or to attain a target return on investment are examples of profitability pricing objectives, a relationship between the benefits provided by a certain operation or thing and the investment or effort that has been made; when it comes to financial performance; it is usually expressed in percentages.
Answer:
a. Producer surplus
b. Neither
c. Consumer surplus
Explanation:
The producer surplus is the difference between the minimum price a producer is willing to accept for a product and the price he actually gets.
The consumer surplus is the difference between the maximum price a consumer is willing to pay for a product and the price he actually gets.
a. Here, the person gets $189 for his laptop but he was willing to accept $180 as well. This is an example of producer surplus. The producer surplus, in this case, is $9.
b. In this example, we only know the price that the producer actually received and the price the consumer actually paid. The maximum price the consumer was willing to pay or the minimum price that the producer was willing to accept is not mentioned. So this is neither an example of producer surplus nor consumer surplus.
c. Here, the consumer was willing to pay $47 for a sweater, but he actually has to pay $40. This is an example of consumer surplus. The consumer surplus is equal to $7.
