Your boss would like your help on a marketing research project she is conducting on the relationship between the price of juice
djverab [1.8K]

Answer: The law of demand

Explanation:

The tabular representation (demand schedule is down below)

Price of Juice (Dollars per can)     Quantity Demanded(Billions of can)

2000                                                   0.5

1500                                                   0.75

1000                                                     1

750                                                      1.25

From the table above and the graphical representation attached, <u>the law of demand</u> is confirmed. The law of demand states that the price of a good and the quantity demanded are inversely proportional.

Notice that when the price of the juice increases, the demand decreases and when the price decreases, the demanded increases. This shows that majority of consumers will be more willing to make purchases when there is a decrease in price.

Check the attachment for the graphical representation.

On July 1, Arcola Company purchases equipment for $330,000. The equipment has an estimated useful life of 10 years and expected
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

a. $29,000

b. $214,000

c. Yes

Explanation:

a. Annual Depreciation expense:

= (Cost - salvage value)/ Useful life

= (330,000 - 40,000) / 10,000

= $29,000

b. Net book value at end of 4th year:

= Cost - 4 year depreciation

= 330,000 - (4 * 29,000)

= $214,000

c. One test to see if equipment is not impaired is that the Expected Undiscounted cashflows need to be higher than the net book value. This is not the case here as the Net Book value of $214,000 is higher than the expected Undiscounted cash inflows of $185,000. Equipment is therefore impaired.

Cash In/Income:

Personal income

Business Income

Cash Out/Expense:

Cost of business trip = variable

State tax liability = fixed

Clothing purchases = variable

2. For example, your mortgage would be considered a fixed expense, because the total amount does not vary.  Conversely, grocery bills would be considered variable, because the actual amount is not fixed but varies.

Explanation:

Variable cost or expense has a fixed cost per unit, with the total amount varying, depending on the units or quantities consumed.  Fixed cost does have a fixed total amount within the relevant range, but the cost per unit varies.

An investor in a T-bill earns interest by _________. receiving interest payments every 90 days receiving dividend payments every
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

buying the bill at a discount from the face value to be received at maturity.

Explanation:

Treasury bills also referred to as T-bills are short term financial instruments. T-bills are issued at a discount from the face value or par value of the bill. Therefore, a T-bill which has a face value of $2000 may have a purchase price of $1,500. The investor will buy the T-bill for $1,500 and upon maturity of the instrument, the investor will receive $2000. The difference between the purchase price of $1,500 and the amount received at maturity of $2000 is interest earned by the investor.
