Answer:

The correct answer is that both competition and patent system encourages business owners to grow and develop better in circunstances.

Explanation:

To begin with, a <em>competitive marketplace</em> generates the free entrance from entrepreuners to the market no matter how many other competitors are and it also encourages every company to make their products or services better for the consumers due to the fact that if the do not do that then the other competitors will, therefore that competition makes the best of every party.

Secondly, the <em>patent system</em> does also encourages the business owners and helps the economy because it assures them that no matter how many competitors there are, the product that they invent will be protected by the federal government and the law so they will be free to create something unique and obtain big profits from that.

To sum up, the reason why both the competition and the patent system are essential to creating a large economic pie is due to its capacity of encouraging the business owners to grow and develop.

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

Suzie's situation isn't workable because she is meant to be under the direct supervision of her broker no matter what her personal preference for independence.  

This is because should anything go wrong in any of her dealings, the brokers's license will be revoked. This means that the broker is directly responsible and accountable for her actions and as such must ensure that she is present at the office at all times.

Cheers.

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

$7.38

Explanation:

The average cost method recalculates a new cost per unit with each and every purchase made. This new costs would then be used to calculate the costs of goods sold and inventory value.

Average cost per unit = Total Costs ÷ Units available for sale

                                    = (200 x  $7 + 800 x $7 + 600  x $8) ÷ 1,600

                                    = $7.375 or $7.38

The average cost per unit for May is $7.38

Del is buying a $250,000 home. He has been approved for a 5.75% mortgage. He was required to make a 15% down payment and will be
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

Del is expected to prepaid to pay $535.62 in prepaid interest at the closing.

Explanation:

The down payment of 15% is $250000*15%=$37500

The balance of mortgage net of down payment=$250000-$37500

                                                                               =$212500

Interest yearly=$212500*5.75%=$12,218.75

A year interest divided by 365days give one day interest.

A day interest=$12218.75/365=$33.48

Total interest  to pay at closing=16days*$33.48

                                                     =$535.62

The number of days was 16 because July has 31days and deal was closed on 15th,hence 31 minus 15 gives 16.
