Answer:

1) A higher price level decreases the real value of consumers' assets.

2) A lower price level makes domestically produced goods less expensive than foreign goods.

Explanation:

The aggregate demand curve represents the number of demands of the goods and services at various price levels. The downward sloping of the demand curve indicates that with the dropping of the price level of a commodity, the demand increases. At the same time, the national income increases as the result of the dropping of the price. There are three reasons why the aggregate demand curve is downward sloping. The reasons are wealth effect, interest-rate effect, and net exports effect.

Steven consumes only two goods, both of which are normal goods. He is currently maximizing his utility in consumption of both go

zzz [600]

Answer:

The answer is: remain the same

Explanation:

The marginal utility of a good or service is how much better we feel when consuming an extra unit of that good or service. For example if we are very thirsty, the marginal utility of consuming a can of Coke is very large, but once our thirst is quenched, an extra can of Coke will not provide use with that much satisfaction as before.

If the price of a substitute good increases, the marginal utility of the good whose price didn't change, will remain the same.

Let's go back to the Coke example. An extra can of Coke will give me 5 more satisfaction units (I'm assuming I can measure satisfaction) and an extra slice of pizza will give me 7 more units of satisfaction. If the price of Coke increases from 50 cents to $1, its marginal utility will decrease. I will buy more pizza because the satisfaction I get from drinking Coke is now smaller.

On June 1, Aaron Company purchased equipment at a cost of $120,000 that has a depreciable cost of $90,000 and an estimated usefu

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

It is $30,000(C)

Explanation:

Depreciable cost = $90,000

Using straight-line method,

Annual depreciation = $90,000/3

= $30,000.

Hence, depreciation expense at the final year of service is $30,000

We cannot make use of entire cost of equipment of $120,000 because it seemed the company wanted to sell its scrap value for $30,000. Hence, this has been used to reduced it cost to $90,000 which is a depreciable cost .
