Answer:

an increase in equilibrium price and an indeterminate effect on equilibrium quantity.

Explanation:

An inferior good is a good whose demand increases when income falls and reduces when income rises.

If ramen is an inferior good, when income falls its demand would increase. This would lead to a rise in quantity and price.

An increase in the price of wheat would increase the cost of production of ramen. As a result, the supply of ramen would fall. Price would increase and supply would fall.

The combined effect would be an increase in equilibrium price but an indeterminate effect on equilibrium quantity.

I hope my answer helps you

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

The conversion cost per equivalent unit is $3.31

Explanation:

The computation of the conversion cost per equivalent unit is shown below:

= Total conversion costs ÷ Total equivalent units

where,

Total conversion cost = completed units + Conversion costs during April

                                    = $6,000 + $35,000

                                    = $41,000

And, the total equivalents units equal to

= Finished good units × percentage of completion + ending work in process units  × percentage of completion

= 11,500 units × 100% + 1,500 units × 60%

= 11,500 units + 900 units

= 12,400 units

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the per unit would equal to

= $41,000 ÷ 12,400 units

= $3.31 per unit

Beta Company leased equipment from Summer Industries. The lease agreement qualifies as a finance lease and requires annual lease
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

Total increase in pretax earnings on Summer’s December 31, 2019, income statement is $20,253

Explanation:

Fair value of asset sold on lease = Present value of lease payments = $50,000 * Cumulative PV factor at 6% for 8 periods of annuity due

= $50,000 * 6.20979

= $310,490

Interest income for 2019 = ($310490 - $50,000) * 6% = $15,629

Total increase in pretax earnings on Summer’s December 31, 2019, income statement = $310490 - $300,000 + $15,629 - 5866 = $20,253
