Answer:

A. -many substitute

Explanation:

Deadweight loss is inefficiency that occurs as a result of taxation. It's the change in production or consumption as a result of tax.

If tax is imposed on a good with many substitutes, the deadweight loss would be greater because consumers can easily shift consumption to another good that is cheaper.

If a good has inelastic supply or demand, the deadweight loss is less because consumers and producers do not change quantity demanded and supplied if prices increase as a result of tax.

I hope my answer helps you.

Answer:

148.02 days

Explanation:

The computation of the cash conversion cycle is shown below:

As we know that

Cash conversion cycle is = Days inventory outstanding + days sale outstanding - days payable outstanding

where,

Number of days inventory outstanding is

= Average inventory ÷ cost of goods sold per day

= $75000 ÷ ($360,000 ÷ 365 days)

= 76.04 days

Number of days sales outstanding is

= Average account receivable ÷ Average sales per day

= $160,000 ÷ ($600,000 ÷ 365)

= 97.33 days

And, the number of days payable outstanding is

= Average accounts payable ÷ cost pf goods sold per day

= $25,000 ÷ ($360,000 ÷ 365)

= 25.35 days

So, the cash conversion cycle is

= 76.04 days + 97.33 days - 25.35 days

= 148.02 days
