Answer:
The correct answer is C. Credits decrease assets and increase liabilities.
Explanation:
A credit is a provision of money in the form of a loan, granted by a creditor (lender) to a debtor (borrower). For the creditor, the transaction gives rise to a claim on the borrower, under which he can obtain repayment of the funds and payment of remuneration (interest) according to a fixed schedule. For the borrower, whether it is a business or an individual, the credit establishes the existence of a debt (increasing liabilities) and opens the availability of a temporary financial resource.

c. The price that the company should sell the new toy at if it prices using penetration pricing is:

d. The price that the company should sell the new toy at if it prices using price skimming is:
= $25.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Cost of producing a new toy = $10
Competitors' prices are:
Product A – $25
Product B – $20
Product C – $23
Product D– $22
Total = $90
Average price = $22.50 ($90/4)
Cost = $10
Markup 10 ($10 * 100%)
Price = $20
b) An important consideration in the pricing of products is customers' and competitors' reactions to the firm's selling price. The purpose of considering customers is to ensure that enough demand is generated to cover production cost and make profits. Competitors can wage price wars to discourage new entrants into their markets. Many pricing methods are in use, depending on the prevailing market realities.
