Answer:
The five main characteristics of a c corporation are:
- limited liability: the owners' liability is determined by the amount of money they invested in purchasing the corporation's stock.
- corporations are owned by stockholders: every single stockholder owns a piece of the corporation, the size of that piece is determined by the amount of stocks.
- double taxation: owners of the corporation suffer from double taxation because first the corporation must pay corporate taxes and then the owners must pay income taxes when they receive dividends.
- corporations are separate entities: corporations exist by themselves, they are born when they are created and die when they are dissolved.
- corporations are professionally managed: the owners elect a board of directors and the board is responsible for hiring professional management.

Corporation is the most effective form of business organization for raising capital
Answer:
The correct answer is a monopolistic competition.
Explanation:
Monopolistic competition is a form of market in which there are a large number of buyers and sellers. The sellers are providing differentiated products which are close substitutes.
There is a high degree of competition in the market. The entry and exit in the market are relatively easier than a monopoly market.
To increase their market share and earn more profits, the firms take the help of branding and advertising.
In the given example, the supermarket chain is operating in monopolistic competition as it has to face a high degree of competition and is using branding, etc to create a niche for itself.
M1 money growth in the US was about 16% in 2008, 7% in 2009 and 9% in 2010. Over the same time period, the yield on 3-month Treasury bills fell from almost 3% to close to 0%. Given these high rates of money growth, why did interest rates fall, rather than increase? What does this say about the income, price level and expected-inflation effects?
Higher money growth (increase in the money supply) should have the following effects:
Liquidity effect indicates that this growth in money should shift money supply to the right, which should decrease the interest rate.
Income effect indicates that the growth in money should increase income levels, which should increase the demand for money and shift the demand curve to the right. This should increase the interest rate.
The price level effect indicates that the growth in money should increase price levels, which should increase the demand for money and shift the demand curve to the right. This should also increase the interest rate.
During this time period, unemployment was high, economic growth was weak and policymakers were more concerned with deflation than they were with inflation.
Therefore, the expected inflation effect was almost non-existent (due to the concerns with deflation) and the liquidity effect dominated all other effects, which made interest rates fall.

Profit is maximized when Q = 4 and P = $40, with maximum profit = $90.
<u>Explanation:</u>
(a) (i) Marginal cost (MC) = Change in Total cost (TC) by Change in output (Q)
(ii) Total revenue (TR) = Price (P) into Q
(iii) Marginal revenue (MR) = Change in TR by Change in Q
(iv) Profit = TR - TC
Therefore:
Q TC MC P TR MR PROFIT
0 25 60 0 -25
1 40 15 55 55 55 15
2 45 5 50 100 45 55
3 55 10 45 135 35 80
4 70 15 40 160 25 90
5 90 20 35 175 15 85
6 115 25 30 180 5 65
7 145 30 25 175 -5 30
8 180 35 20 160 -15 -20
9 220 40 15 135 -25 -85
10 265 45 10 100 -35 -165
When Q = 4, MR = $25 and MC = $15, so MR > MC. When Q = 5, MR = $15 and MC = $20, so MR < MC. Therefore,
Profit is maximized when Q = 4 and P = $40, with maximum profit = $90.
(b) In the long run, new firms will enter the market by being attracted by positive short run profit. Therefore in long run, demand for individual firm will decrease, price for individual firm will decrease and profit will decrease until each existing firm earns zero economic profit.
