Answer: consumers find it unfair for firms to increase prices after an increase in demand".
Explanation: Economists established 2 explanations of why companies do not increase their prices even if they can make higher profits.
First it was discovered that some products have the characteristic that the amount of product that a customer wants to buy can depend on the amount of the product that other people are consuming.
And then it was discovered that most people are satisfied that companies raise prices because of an increase in costs, but consider it unfair to raise prices as a result of increased demand.

2. Have both the buyer and seller sign required disclosures describing the designated sales agency relationship and stating that each the buyer and seller have assets of $1 million or more.
Answer: Option (d) is correct.
Explanation:
Correct option: Market price is greater than marginal cost.
In a perfectly competitive market, there are large number of buyers and sellers. So, price is determined by the market forces.
At a point of profit maximization, price is equal to the marginal cost and we have to maximize the difference of the total revenue and total cost. It was not seen in a perfectly competitive market that the price is above the marginal cost at a profit maximizing point.
Therefore, option (d) is not true.
Answer: $2,025
Explanation:
Your monthly payment based on the rate of 6.3% per annum is:
= (6.3% * 1,620,000 ) / 12 months
= 102,060 / 12
= $8,505
Now that the rate has gone up to 7.8% per annum, the payment is:
= (7.8% * 1,620,000 ) / 12 months
= 126,360 / 12
= $10,530
Payment went up by:
= 10,530 - 8,505
= $2,025
Answer:
The company should make the bicycle seats.
Explanation:
Given:
Number of seats to be made = 10,000
Variable cost = 80,000
Fixed cost = 10,000
Outside source cost for seats = $ 8.50 per seat
Since, the fixed cost of the seats cannot be eliminated. Therefore, the deciding factor will only be the variable cost.
Thus,
contribution margin per unit seat if made by own
= ( Variable cost / Number of seats )
Or
= 80,000 / 10,000
or
= $ 8
now,
the making the seats by own is $ 0.5 cheaper.
Hence, the company should make the bicycle seats.
