Answer:
The correct answer is c. human capital conveys positive externalities.
Explanation:
Externalities are defined as consumption, production and investment decisions made by individuals, households and companies and that affect third parties that do not participate directly in those transactions. Sometimes those indirect effects are tiny. But when they grow up, they can be problematic; That is what economists call "externalities." Externalities are one of the main reasons that lead governments to intervene in the economy.
Positive externalities: In this case, it is about the difference between private and social benefits. For example, research and development activities are widely considered as generating positive effects that transcend the producer (usually the company that finances them). The reason is that research and development enrich general knowledge, which contributes to other discoveries and advances. However, the profitability perceived by a company that sells products based on its own research and development activities does not usually reflect the profitability perceived by its indirect beneficiaries. When externalities are positive, private profitability is lower than social profitability.

Answer:
Retained earnings on the December 31, 2019: $253,000
Explanation:
Ending balance in retained earnings is calculated by using following formula:
Ending balance in retained earnings = Beginning balance in retained earnings + Net income - Cash dividends - Stock dividends
Grizzly Company had Retained Earnings at December 31, 2018 of $210,000. Beginning balance in retained earnings at January 01, 2019 is $210,000
Net income = Revenues - Expenses = $410,000 - $355,000 = $55,000
Ending balance in retained earnings = $210,000 + $55,000 - $12,000 = $253,000
Answer:
The planned purchases are given as $34,500 while the value of OTB is $28,900
Explanation:
The Planned purchases is given as
Planned Sales + Planned Markdowns + Planned End of Month Inventory - Planned Beginning of Month Inventory = Planned Purchases
So here the planned sales are 25000
The planned Reductions are 1500
The End of Month inventory is 88000
The Beginning of Month Inventory is 80000 So the value is given as
25000+1500+88000-80000= Planned Purchases
Planned Purchases =34500
The OTB is given as
OTB=Planned Purchases-Commitment
OTB=34500-5600
OTB=28900
Decrease assets, decrease liabilities. Accounts payable are what the business owes (liabilities). By paying off accounts payable, the liabilities are decreasing (they owe less) and the assets are also decreasing (because they use assets/cash to pay off the liabilities, so they have less now).
