Answer: Transaction Costs.

Explanation:

In Economics, it is believed that indeed Private parties can solve an externality amongst themselves without the need for Government intervention. This is what the Coase Theorem posits. However the theorem believes that for this to happen, there has to be low to zero transaction costs.

If there are high transaction costs then, the theorem is not expected to hold as is the case in the text. When Transaction Costs are high, Private solutions to Externalities have a lower chance of working and this is usually the reality.

Answer:

The correct choice is A)

Profit if maximized where price is equal to $20.

At this price, MR = MC.

Please see the attached PDF.

Explanation:

The profit-maximizing choice for the monopoly will be to produce at the quantity where marginal revenue is equal to marginal cost:

timurjin [86]

Answer:

Walton Company

Income Statement

                                   Actual                Budgeted            Variances

Sales                          510,400                 $ 519,000              8,600 U

Variable product costs    183400             188,000                 4,600 F        

Variable selling expense   48100              46,000                  2,100 U

Other variable expenses  5100                  3,300                  1,800 U

Contribution Margin      273,800              281,700              7,900 unfav

Fixed product costs   15460                       15,700                  240 F

Fixed selling expense   22920                   23,400                 480 F

Operating Income      235420                    242,600          7,180  unfav

Other fixed expenses   1460                       1,300                 160 U

Interest expense            710                          800                   90 F      

Net income                 233,250                  240,500           7,250 unfav

We calculate the actual amounts from the budgeted amount by adding the variances when they are unfavorable and subtracting them when they are favorable . But in case of sales this is reversed. The actual sales are calculated by   subtracting unfavorable variance from budgeted sales.

The fav amounts are subtracted from the unfav amounts to get the results .

8,600 u + ( 4,600)F + 2,100 U +1,800= 7,900 unfav
