Answer:

Macy is liable. The Federal Trade Commission states that both the credit rating agency and Macy's are responsible for correcting the erroneous credit report. It is very hard to sue and win a credit rating agency because they will place the blame on the company that made the initial mistake (Macy's), but lately courts have accepted cases against the companies that cause all this mess.

Courts have lately ruled in favor people alleging that a bad credit report damaged them since a good credit rating is considered an intangible asset. The company that cause the mistakes are liable for any possible damages resulting from a poor credit rating.

dsp73

A monpolistically competitive firm is a firm that :

1. Sells differentiated products from other firms in the industry.

4. Has no barrier to entry or exist of firms

An example of a monpolistically competitive firm is a resturant.

A competitive firm is a firm that:

1. Sells identical goods with other firms in the industry.

2. Is a price taker . Prices are set by forces of demand and supply

3. Has many buyers and sellers

4. There are no barriers to entry or exist of firms.

When a monopolistic and competition firm are faced with the same unit cost, a monopolistic firm would aim to earn profit by increasing its price and reducing the quantity produced.

While a perfect competition would sell at the price set by the forces of demand and supply. The firm can increase the quantity produced in order to increase revenue.

A monopolistic firm is able to charge a higher price for its products while a perfect competition isn't.

Optimal Choice of Milk and Honey. The price of milk is $2 per gallon, and the price of honey is $4 per jar. Hal's income is $16.
yarga [219]

Answer:

Assuming that Hal spends all of his income on honey and milk, the combination of milk and honey that will maximize his total utility is <u>2</u> jars of honey and <u>4</u> gallons of milk.

Explanation:

This question is missing a table that should be as follows:

quantity    total util.       marginal        quantity    total util.       marginal  

of milk        from milk     utility per $   of honey   from honey  utility per $

1                     32                  16                  1                  44                11

2                    60                  14                 <u> 2                 84                10</u>

3                    84                  12                  3                120                 9

<u>4                   104                  10</u>                  4                152                 8

5                   120                   8                  5                180                 7

6                   132                   6                  6                204                6

7                   140                   4                   7                224                5

8                   144                   2                   8                240                4

We should purchase quantities that yield the same marginal utility per dollar spent, options are:

  • <u>4 gallons of milk and 2 jars of honey ⇒ total cost = $8 + $8 = $16</u>
  • 5 gallons of milk and 4 jars of honey ⇒ total cost = $10 + $16 = $26
  • 6 gallons of milk and 6 jars of honey ⇒ total cost = $12 + $24 = $36
  • 7 gallons of milk and 8 jars of honey ⇒ total cost = $14 + $32 = $46
