Answer:

$88,150

Explanation:

DINK method for insurance sums one half of all the debt plus funeral expenses. Thus,

Using DINK method

One half of mortgage, 140,000 = 70000

One half of car loan, 14000 = 7000

One half of personal debts, 4800 = 2400

One half of credit card loans, 3500 = 1750

Funeral expenses = 7000

Thus

Total insurance needed =

70000 + 7000 +2400 + 1750 + 7000

= $88,150

Note that, when using DINK method, what the spouse earn isn't used in calculating total insurance.

Being entries to recognize insurance expense for the period (August to December).

                                                                                      = $10,000

The model of competitive markets relies on these three core assumptions:
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

The three scenarios describe a competitive market.

Explanation:

1) In the competitive market buyers and sellers are price takers, this means that there are many producers and consumers and none of them are able to intervene in price and market. Price is given, ie price is determined by interaction in the market. 2) The products are identical. That is, no company will make a profit due to differentiated products. In perfect competition, companies produce identical products, and the consumer is indifferent to the product characteristics of each company. 3) There is free entry and exit of companies and factors of production, ie there is no cost to enter and exit any sector. This means that factors can migrate from one sector to another without incurring costs, meaning there are no barriers to entry and exit from any sector.

Thus, from items 1 and 2, consumers and buyers are price takers, that is, they cannot influence the price determined by the market. Item 3 is about achieving zero profit or normal long-term profit. This is because the free entry and exit of companies avoids extraordinary profits by encouraging companies to migrate to sectors that earn higher profits in the short term. Thus, in perfect competition, compa
