Answer:

Price - increase

Domestic production- increase

Import- reduces

Producer surplus- increase

Explanation:

A tariff is a form of tax on import or export.

When a tariff is imposed on a good , the price of the good increases.

As a result of the tariff , the amount of the goods imported falls as the imported good is now more expensive. The quantity produced by domestic producers increases as consumers would now start demanding for the domestic good. Tariffs are sometimes enacted to discourage importation and encourage domestic production.

As a result of the price increase, producer surplus increases. The increase in price also increases output. The producer surplus is the difference between the price of a product and the least amount the producer is willing to sell his product.

I hope my answer helps you.

When​ Alex's income increased from ​$2,000 to ​$4,000​, he increased his consumption of bagels from 6 to 10 a month and decrease
Oliga [24]

Answer:

For Bagels = 1.33

For Donuts = -1.33

Explanation:

Using the midpoint method, Alex's percentage change in income is given by the difference in income divided by the average income:

\%I =\frac{\$4,000-\$2,000}{\frac{\$4,000+\$2,000}{2}}\\\%I=66.67\%

Alex's percentage change in demand for both bagels and donuts is given by the difference in the quantity consumed divided by the average consumption:

\%B =\frac{10-6}{\frac{10+6}{2}}\\\%B=50.00\%\\\%D =\frac{9-15}{\frac{15+9}{2}}\\\%D=-50.00\%

Alex's income elasticity of demand for bagels and donuts, respectively, is:

E_B=\frac{\%I}{\%B}=\frac{66.67\%}{50\%} \\E_B=1.33\\\\E_D=\frac{\%I}{\%D}=\frac{66.67\%}{-50\%} \\E_D=-1.33

His income elasticity of demand for bagels is 1.33, while for Donuts it is  -1.33.

Lamont Communications has amortized a patent on a straight-line basis since it was acquired in 2010 at a cost of $50 million. Du
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

C) Patent amortization expense of $5 million.

Explanation:

Patent acquisition date is 2010

Cost of acquisition = $50 million

Initial Useful life = 20 years

Annual amortization = $50,000,000/20

                                  = $2,500,000

Between 2010 and start of 2013 is 3 years

Carrying value at the start of 2013

= 50,000,000 - 3(2,500,000)

= $42,500,000

If patent would be received over a total period of 8 years rather than the 20-year legal life being used to amortize the cost,

Patent amortization expense in 2013 = $42,500,000/8

                                                              = $5,312,500

This can be estimated as $5 million.

The right option is C) Patent amortization expense of $5 million.

In determining whether to issue a loan, banks are not allowed to ask about an applicant's
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

country of origin.

Explanation:

Banks have a set of requirements that borrowers need to meet to qualify for a bank loan. The banks will ask questions to determine if the customer is eligible for a loan. Most of the questions pertain to the purpose of the loans and the customer's ability to repay.

The bank will ask about employment history, credit history, tax information, personal information, the purpose of the loan,  collateral, and other questions related to the ability to repay. A person's country of origin is unnecessary and may elicit elements of discrimination.
