Answer:

(2) There was a decrease in demand and an increase in supply

Explanation:

For a movie studio, a decline in attendance suggests that demand for showtime (movies) had declined. If demand had increased, there would have been an increase in attendance at the movies. If demand had remained the same, attendance would have remained unchanged too with no increase or decrease.

However, the decline in the average ticket price suggests that supply of movies had most likely increased (it could also be the case that studios decrease prices in a bid to attract customers in the face of dwindling demand). An increase in average ticket price would have suggested that lower movies were available or demand was higher than supply.

Answer:

2. There was a decrease in demand and an increase in supply.

Explanation:

If the latest data from the movie studios reveals that attendance at movies has declined as well as the average ticket price, then this could possibly have happened as a result of 2 things:

1. A DECREASE IN DEMAND: This is very obvious because it is stated clearly that 'attendance at movies have declined'' that means people no longer go to movies as they used, at least some people may not even be going anymore.

2. INCREASE IN SUPPLY: The second reason might be less obvious but it can be recalled that one of the major reasons in economics that triggers a price drop is 'increase in supply'. In the scenario, the fact that average ticket price across board have declined points more in the direction of increase in supply.

Competitive firms hire workers until the additional benefit they receive from the last worker hired is equal to(i)the additional
xeze [42]

Answer:

The correct answer to the following question is option B) both statements i and ii are correct.

Explanation:

First of all the marginal product can be defined as the additional unit of product that a business can produce by using additional unit of input. And marginal revenue product refers to the change that occurs in the total revenue due to the production of additional unit of product.

Any competitive firm would hire additional workers only when the MRPL (marginal revenue product of labor) is greater than the wages paid to that labor and additional cost incurred in hiring those workers and they would stop hiring the workers when the MRPL is equal to the cost paid to the workers.

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

It will increase emigration in the short run, but in the long turn the tax effect will be translated to the club and companies as the players has leverage.

Explanation:

It is a complex question, we have to consider that elite players agents has leverage on the negotiation as the football club wants to keep them in the team. What end up happening is that players negociate a net ammount thus, they are indifferent to the tax-rate for their contract.

We should also consider there is income from advertizing and social media which has increased over the years. Here, the players will also negociate a net amount and company's will take the hit not the players.

I:E the player will want 10 millon net thus, the parties will sing a contract value that after all taxes leaves them with that amount.

<u>Also this make the effort to elude taxes more viable</u> as it happened with Messi and Cristiano Rolando among others.

Given a prior forecast demand value of 1,100, a related actual demand value of 1,000, and a smoothing constant alpha of 0.3, wha
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

1,030

Explanation:

Calculation for what is the exponential smoothing forecast value

Exponential smoothing forecast value = 1,000 + 0.3 x (1,100-1,000)

Exponential smoothing forecast value = 1,000 + 0.3 x (100)

Exponential smoothing forecast value = 1,000 + 30

Exponential smoothing forecast value= 1,030

Therefore the exponential smoothing forecast value will be 1,030

The price of cheddar cheese rises from $1 per pound to $2 per pound, and as a result, producers of cheese increase their product
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

the arc price elasticity of supply is \frac{5}{2}

Explanation:

Given:

P1: $1 and Q1 = 5 thousand tons

P2:$2 and Q2 = 55 thousand tons

We need to find:

%ΔQ = \frac{Q2-Q1}{(Q1+Q2)/2} = \frac{55-5}{(55+5)/2} = \frac{5}{3}

%ΔP = \frac{P2-P1}{(P1+P2)/2} = \frac{2-1}{(1+2)/2} = \frac{2}{3}

As we know that, the arc price elasticity of supply :

E = %ΔQ  / %ΔP

<=> E = \frac{5}{3} /\frac{2}{3} = \frac{5}{2}

Julie Whiteweiler made $930 this week. Only social security (fully taxable) and federal income taxes attach to her pay. Whitewei
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

Step 1: Calculate FICA (OASDI & HI):

Total wage subjected to FICA is $930. Why? Contributions to 401K is only exempted from Fed. Income Tax Withholding (FIT) not FICA. As for HSA contrib., it is exempted for both FICA and FIT. However, the plan is non-qualified, which means that $25 contributed by employee is taxable for both. The $25 matching from employer for HSA is excluded from income and income taxes.

OASDI RATE 2012: 4.2% of $930; therefore, $39.06

HI RATE 2012: 1.45% of $930; therefore, $13.49

TOTAL FICA TAX: $52.55

STEP 2: Calculate FIT:

Total earnings subjected to FIT is ($930-100)= $830. Why? $100 contributions to 401k is exempted from FIT. HSA contrib. is unqualified.; therefore, contributions from employee is taxable. Using Wage Bracket Method 2012, the FIT is $89.

STEP 3: Getting the Take-Home Pay answer:

($930-100(401k))-25(HSA:Employee)-$52.55(FICA)-89(FIT)=$663.45
