Answer:
option (c) $600
Explanation:
Given:
Tax = $4 per unit
Initial equilibrium quantity = 2,000 units
Final equilibrium quantity = 1,700 units
Decrease in consumer surplus = $3,000
Decrease in consumer surplus = $4,400
Now,
Deadweight Loss is calculated using the formula:
Deadweight loss
=
× Tax × (Original equilibrium quantity - New equilibrium quantity)
on substituting the respective values, we get
Deadweight loss =
× 4 × (2,000 - 1,700)
or
Deadweight loss = 2 × (3) = $600
Hence,
the correct answer is option (c) $600
Answer:
If the effective tax rate increases then the net savings coming from investments will get lowered as a result the investment will have higher payback period (The increase in effective tax rate would lower demand of the product which means there is decline in net saving arising from the sale of the product). Likewise this decrease in annual net savings will also decrease the internal rate of return which shows that their are increased chances of project rejections. The NPV method is based on cash flows and relevant costing just like IRR and payback method but the only difference is that it assumes that the cash earned would be reinvested at cost of capital. The NPV will also decrease due to increased effective tax rate.
Answer:
Insurance $4,800 (debit)
prepaid insurance $4,800 (credit)
Explanation:
In order to find out adjusting entries. firstly, we need to calculate the difference between prepaid insurance account and Insurance account.
That could be done by subtracting $3,550 from $8,350.
Difference = 8350-3550= 4800
Answer:
The answer is b) how technology is best used in the production of goods and services
Explanation:
The concept of welfare economics is used in the context of the Economy and public finances. It is defined as the branch of the economy that tries to determine the conditions that are needed to reach the maximum of social welfare. For this, the conditions are established to maximize production with a given amount of resources and optimization of the distribution of goods and services, analyzing the policies pursued in the achievement of goals that are considered desirable from the point of view of well-being.
a) ( 0.8509718, 0.8890282)
b) ( 0.7255, 0.7745)
Explanation:
(a)
Given that , a = 0.05, Z(0.025) =1.96 (from standard normal table)
So Margin of error = Z × sqrt(p × (1-p)/n) = 1.96 × sqrt(0.87 × (1-0.87) / 1200)
=0.01902816
So 95 % confidence interval is
p+/-E
0.87+/-0.01902816
( 0.8509718, 0.8890282)
(b)
Margin of error = 1.96 × sqrt (0.75 × (1-0.75) / 1200) = 0.0245
So 95% confidence interval is
p+/-E
0.75+/-0.0245
( 0.7255, 0.7745)
