Answer:

The correct option is C: "as evidence that Balin is not acting purely in his self-interest."

Explanation:

The fact that Balin actually had the choice to purchase the same quality of cocoa at better or lower prices, but however decides to purchase the fair trade cocoa which was more expensive just to show his concern for the right of workers and environmental sustainability, Behavioral economist would see this as evidence that Balin is acting not because of his self-interest but passion for the rights of others.

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

The correct answer is b. increases.

Explanation:

In a market that works as perfect competition (according to Microeconomics), an increase in demand (and the consequent decrease in inventories of producers) leads producers to increase their sales prices of their products, in order to also increase its level of production, until it equals demand (since at higher prices demand decreases) and this causes the market to balance, this is called economic equilibrium. In a competitive economy, producers can only increase their level of production if the sales prices of their products rise, the reason is that production costs increase with volume.

Excess demand occurs when there are imperfections in the market (such as when the Government sets maximum sales prices, at a price below the market equilibrium price) and for this reason the market does not reach equilibrium, where the quantity demanded and offered of the product are equal. When a market is in excess demand, the quantity demanded by consumers is greater than the quantity supplied by sellers, this causes the inventories of the producers to fall and they cannot increase their production.

Answer:

B) the existence of only two candidates

Explanation:

Thee median voter theorem only considers voting choices along a single dimension, e.g. yes/no, candidate A/candidate B. This theory is based on the premise that median voters are those whose voting peak is at the median and voting equilibrium can be achieved when one majority wins against another alternative.  

Theoretically, all that the government must do is find a voter whose preferences for public policies are in the middle of the normal distribution of voting preferences and carry out the policies preferred by that voter.

But when the alternatives are more than yes/no, then the preferences will not be normally distributed.

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

The debit of $1,100,000 is posted to factory labor

Explanation:

The debit to factory labor would comprises of the gross wages and employee payroll taxes payable as the cost of factory labor should reflect the company's total costs incurred for the relevant period.
