1. Unions have been in decline since the 1960s because of
Answer: <u>A. foreign competition.</u>
Explanation: Unions were often conducted in the past in order to protect workers from<em> "arbitrary decisions" </em>of employers. Such decisions resulted to the<em> laying off of workers </em>and<em> cutting of wages</em>. On the contrary, business owners have a different goal. They wanted to make more profit by cutting the wages, so they didn't like the unions. However, unions have been in decline in the 1960s, mainly because of international/foreign competitions. This is because the "bargaining power of the unions as they represent the employees were reduced."

It is not according to his willingness to pay, but to his<em> "ability to return the money</em>." In order to know whether a person is capable of repaying the money on time, the bank analyzes the borrower's gross income and his debt. 
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
the firm should have sold less output in the local market, and more output on the internet auction site.
Explanation:
Based on the scenario being described within the question it can be said that in order to maximize profits the firm should have sold less output in the local market, and more output on the internet auction site. This is because marginal revenue indicates the additional revenue that will be generated by increasing product sales by one unit. Therefore since the internet auction site's marginal revenue is higher than the local store, it means that selling more units in the internet site will lead to more profit than the local market.

Answer: $68,000
Explanation:
Let us assume that we are given a tax rate of 34% to use in computing the question. Therefore, Purple Rose's current income tax expense or benefit will be:
Pre-tax book income = $500,000
Less: Tax depreciation = $300,000
Net Income = $500,000 - $300,000 = $200,000
Current income tax expenses at 34% will then be:
= 34% × Net income
= 34/100 × $200,000
= $68,000
