Answer:

True

Explanation:

Bilateral monopoly is a type of market structure in which there is conventionally one seller (monopolist) and one buyer (monopsonist) on it. In other words, a bilateral monopoly is a monopoly limited by monopsony, or, conversely, monopsony limited by a monopoly. A typical example of a bilateral monopoly in developed economies is the labor market in single-industry towns with one town-forming enterprise that makes labor demand and one well-organized and strong the union selling it. Another example is the only bakery in the village that uses flour produced by a single flour mill as a production resource. In a bilateral monopoly, there is a situation in which neither a monopolist nor a monopsonist can force a partner to behave like a completely competitive market entity using market methods. Therefore, the final conditions in a bilateral monopoly are determined by the relative ability of its subjects to bargain.

The demand for one of X Company’s products has declined in recent years. The product is manufactured using designated equipment

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

$230,000

Revised Question:

The demand for one of X Company's products has declined in recent years. The product is manufactured using designated equipment that originally cost $1,300,000 and has a carrying value of $720,000. As of the current date, December 31, 2012, it is expected that only an additional 400,000 units are likely to be sold over the remaining life of the equipment. Each unit sells for $3 and has a manufacturing cost of $1.50. Relevant information as of December 31, 2018:

The undiscounted future cash inflows from the sale of products over the life of the equipment is expected to be $600,000.

The present value of the future cash inflows from the sale of products over the life of the equipment, calculated at the company's cost of capital, is $475,000.

The equipment has a fair value of $490,000 on the date of evaluation.

How much of an impairment loss will X Company recognize in 2018?

Explanation:

IAS 36 Impairment of Assets states that company's or entity's assets can not be carried at more than their Recoverable Amount

<em>Recoverable Amount</em> equals to higher of Fair Value less cost of disposal and Value in Use

<em>Value in Use</em> is net present value (NPV) of future cashflows generated by an asset.

Lets calculate the Recoverable amount of the equipment of Company X:

Fair Value less Cost of disposal = $490,000 - 0 = $490,000

Value in Use = discounted future cashflows from equipment = $475,000

<em>So Recoverable Amount is higher of Fair Value less cost of disposal and Value in Use i.e $490,000</em>

<h3>Impairment Loss = Carrying Value - Recoverable Amount </h3><h3> = $720,000 - $490,000</h3><h3> = $230,000</h3>

When the economy is in a recession, expansionary fiscal policy can be used to stimulate and encourage economic growth. Which of

kicyunya [14]

Answer:

A. The government lowers tax rates and undertakes a replacement of old bridges and roads

B. The government lowers tax rates and issues a partial refund of taxes that have already been paid

These 2 statements are correct explained below

Explanation:

A. The government lowers tax rates and undertakes a replacement of old bridges and roads, this statement is correct because when the government lowers tax rates it means that people have higher disposable income on their hands therefore they can spend more which increases demand, and people also invest more which increases supply, also the replacement of bridges and roads is improvement in infrastructure and this also increases supply as transportation is easier and cheaper for businesses.

B. The government lowers tax rates and issues a partial refund of taxes that have already been paid, this statement is correct because when the government lowers tax rates it means that people have higher disposable income on their hands therefore they can spend more which increases demand, and people also invest more which increases supply, also refund of taxes will increase the disposable money that people have so they can invest and consume both which will increase both supply and demand.

C. The government raises tax rates and reduces unemployment insurance payment

This is contraction fiscal policy and will do the opposite of expansionary fiscal policy, that is why this statement is incorrect.

D. The Federal Reserve increases the money supply and lowers the interest rate while the government simultaneously reduces future taxes. This statement is wrong because lowering the interest rate is an expansionary monetary policy and not an expansionary fiscal policy.

Antonio has $11.00 to spend on a lunch consisting of hamburgers ($1.50 each) and French fries ($1.00 per order). Antonio's satis

saveliy_v [14]

Answer: <em>$4. 71 hamburger and $6.29 French fries. </em>

Explanation:

Total spendable income of Antonio = $11.00

1 hamburger = $1.50

1 order of French fries = $1.00

Utility maximization function: U(x1, x2) = x1x2 i.e. 1 hamburger and 2 orders of French fries

Using the Utility maximization function: U(x1, x2) = $1.50 + $2.00

= $3.50 per lunch

Therefore the customer will purchase hamburger worth of $(1.50 x 11.00/3.50) = $4. 71

And French fries orders worth of $(2.00 x 11.00/3.50) = $6.29

<em>Antonio will maximize his satisfaction by purchasing $4. 71 hamburger and $6.29 French fries. </em>
