Answer:

The Sherman Act is the first antitrust law in the United States to proclaim a crime to prevent the freedom of trade by creating a trust and conspire with such a purpose. The act obliged federal prosecutors to prosecute such criminal associations and imposed fines, confiscations, and prison sentences of up to 10 years.

Sherman’s act was not directed against trusts as such, but against obvious restrictions on freedom of trade (both between US states and international) - including, personally, against John Rockefeller and his Standard Oil.

Sparks Fireworks manufactures and sells fireworks. Their raw materials used is $71,500. Their beginning raw materials inventory
algol13

Answer:

The correct answer would be, $70500

Explanation:

Raw Material Turnover means what amount of raw materials is used within a specific period of time. So the raw material turnover would be calculated by adding the beginning inventory with the amount of material used within the period, and then the remaining material will be deducted. So the whole calculations are shown as follows:

Beginning Raw Material Inventory: $5000

Raw Material Used:                $71500

Ending Raw Material Inventory:    $6000

Raw Material Inventory Turnover:

Beginning Inventory + Raw Material Used - Ending Raw Material

= 5000+71500-6000= $70500

Vladimir79 [104]
<span>This is an example of reverse logistics. This takes in the entire shipping chain from the recipient of the parcel back to the original sender, and is just as important to customer relations as the original chain from the retailer through the customer. Having an easy reversal chain can make it much simpler to process customer requests for returns and exchanges with a minimum of downtime and resources expended.</span>

Bob consumes food and housing. Suppose his marginal utility from an additional unit of food is 20 and his marginal utility from
lozanna [386]

Answer:

Option (E) is correct.

Explanation:

For utility maximization,

Bob's consumption of Housing and food should be such that:

\frac{Marginal\ utility\ of\ housing}{Price\ of\ housing}=\frac{Marginal\ utility\ of\ food}{Price\ of\ food}

Here,

\frac{Marginal\ utility\ of\ housing}{Price\ of\ housing}=\frac{100}{2}

                                                                                              = 50

\frac{Marginal\ utility\ of\ food}{Price\ of\ food}=\frac{20}{1}

                                                                                   =20

Bob is not maximizing utility, as these two terms are not equal(50 > 20).

Since the marginal utility per rupee spent on housing is greater than that on food.

Hence, Bob can increase his utility just by consuming more of housing and less of food.

Which of the following would NOT increase the supply of money in a fiat money economy?
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

The correct answer is option c.

Explanation:

Fiat money refers to the currency which is not backed by any physical assets such as gold or silver. Its value is derived from its demand and supply rather than through the value of commodity it is backed by.  

Since the currency is not backed by gold, it will not be affected by the discovery of gold. Had it been backed by gold, the money supply would have increased.  

Purchasing treasury securities, decreasing the required reserve ratio, decreasing the discount rate will all increase the reserves with the commercial This will lead to an increase in money supply through increased lending.

Since water is an abundant commodity, linking the value of money to water will increase money supply.
