What would happen if a supplier charged more than the market price

Equilibrium is the intersect of the two curves. The curves show you how much the producers supply and how much the consumers demand at each possible price. 

The demand curves shows that the higher the price is, the less the consumers demand. That's obvious—the consumer wants something, but not at any price. He's only willing to pay so much. If the price goes higher and higher, less and less people want to buy the good. 

The higher the price is, the more the producers can supply. This is because some producers are able to produce at lower costs; they're better and more efficient than other producers. Other producers, who produce at higher costs, would go bankrupt if they tried to produce at lower prices. But when the price goes up, even the worse producers, who have higher costs, are able to make profit. So, more producers supply to the market. 

What happens now, when the price gets lower than the equlibrium? As you can see from the chart, producers would supply less than consumers would be willing to consume at that particular price. There would be SHORTAGE. This happens when the goverment sets price ceilings (like on gas in the 30's). An opposite situation happens when there is price floor—for example minimum wage (because wages are prices too; prices of labor). In that case, there is surplus—in case of minimum wage that means surplus of labor (unemployment). 

But when the markets are free to set the price, they will quickly establish equlibrium again. The producers will see that there is a shortage. They'll realize they can set higher prices and make bigger profits. They can't set higher price than the equilibrium though, because there would be surplus and they would have their warehouses stuffed with goods noone wants to buy at that price. 

This is the Answer Am 100% sure.

Organizations that rely on a few major customers may organize their people and resources by client. This is an example of ______
Rom4ik [11]

Any organization that organizes their people and resources by client because it relies on a few major customers shows an example of <u>customer departmentalization</u>.

<h3>What is departmentalization? </h3>

Departmentalization is an effort by an organization to achieve some common purpose, coordinate its effort, ensure division of labor, hierarchy of authority, and centralize/decentralize and formalize its operations.

There are four basic types of departmentalization (function, product, customer, and geography). Customer departmentalization depends on the difference between the customer segments so that specialized services could be offered to each segment.

Thus, such an organization is an example of <u>customer departmentalization</u>.

On July 1, Crowe Co. pays $15,000 to Zubin Insurance Co. for a 3-year insurance policy. Both companies have fiscal years ending
Neko [114]

Answer:

a.

July 1, Year 1

Prepaid Insurance                  $15000 Dr

     Cash                                       $15000 Cr

Dec 31, Year 1

Insurance expense                    $2500 Dr

    Prepaid Insurance                     $2500 Cr

b.

July 1, Year 1

Cash                                                  $15000 Dr

    Unearned Service revenue             $15000 Cr

Dec 31, Year 1

Unearned service revenue        $2500 Dr

    Service revenue                           $2500 Cr

Explanation:

a.

The company will record the cash going out of the business for prepaid insurance as credit and the asset account prepaid insurance as debit to record the prepayment of insurance for 3 years at the amount of $15000.

The insurance paid out is for 3 years. So, the per year insurance expense is,

Insurance expense per year = $15000 / 3 = $5000

The adjusting entry made on 31 december will record the insurance months consumed (6 months) as an expense and debit the insurance expense and credit the prepaid insurance asset account.

The insurance expense for 6 months = 5000 * 6/12 = $2500

b.

For the receiving company, the cash is being received and as the service will be provided later on, the cash received will be debited and the unearned service revenue will be credited.

As six months worth of cover has passed, on 31 December, the company will record service revenue for 6 months that is $2500 and debit the liability recorded under unearned service revenue.

The before-trade domestic price of tomatoes in the United States is $500 per ton. The world price of tomatoes is $400 per ton. T
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

d) will become an importer of tomatoes.

Explanation:

Consumer surplus would increase because the price at which they buy tomatoes would reduce while producer surplus would reduce because the price of tomatoes would reduce as a result of international trade.

Consumer surplus is the difference between the willingness to pay of a consumer and the price of the good.Because the price of tomatoes in the US is greater than the price of tomatoes in the world, when the US begins international trade, it would import tomatoes because it is inefficient in the production of tomatoes.  

Producer surplus is the difference between the price of a good and the least price the seller is willing to sell the product
