Answer:

Willingness to pay

Revenue

Two

Elastic

Inelastic

Explanation:

Price discrimination is when a producer or a seller charges different prices for the same product usually in different markets.

In price discrimination, a seller attempts to remove or reduce consumer surplus by charging the consumer at his willingness to pay. For price discrimination to be effective, a seller must be able to estimate the willingness to pay of consumers.

Price discrimination is successful when a seller earns higher profits when she discriminates compared to when she didn't price discriminate.

Price discrimination exists in the airline industry. One of the ways price discrimination exists in the airline industry is through charging to check bags. Customers ( people who board airplanes) are distributed into two groups- those who won't pay to check bags and those who would pay to check bags.

It is assumed that those who would pay to check their bags have a price inelastic demand because they are indifferent to paying an extra amount for their luggage.

Inelastic demand is defined as when a small change in price has no effect on quantity demanded.

While it is assumed that those who won't pay to check their bags have an elastic demand because they are unwilling to pay extra to check their luggages.

Elastic demand is when a change in price has effect on quantity demanded.

Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

There is no contract since both Helen and Garth made a mutual mistake.

In contract law, a mutual mistake occurs when all the parties involved (Helen and Garth) are mistaken about important material facts that affect the contract (which ATV is being sold). The parties intend to perform but what they consider being part of the contract is not what the other party considers part of the contract. When both parties make a mutual mistake, the contract is cancelled.

Mutual mistakes are not on purpose, they are mistakes committed in good faith.

If there is a recessionary gap in the short​ run, the Federal Reserve can eliminate the gap in the short run by undertaking a po
NeTakaya

Answer:

D. harms the society by interfering with the economy's natural process.

Explanation:

In order to get out of recession, the fed should reduce the tax rates, which would in return lead to higher disposable income of the consumers, and then there will be an increase in the demand.

On the other hand the sale of bonds would even further increase the recession, as there will be more cash crunch in the economy. A decrease in reserve ratio will be a long time taking solution, so it would not provide an immediate solution.

MCQ

But, if the fed interferes with the short run equilibrium in the hope of giving short run benefits, it will hamper the economy's natural process to attain a new equilibrium as discussed in the paragraph above. Hence, option D is the correct answer

Option A and C are incorrect, because, employment is not much affected with lowering of income tax. On, the other hand, inflation levels rise, when there is a cut in income tax, as it gives more currency in the economy, hence even C is incorrect.

Flounder Inc. issues 500 shares of $10 par value common stock and 100 shares of $100 par value preferred stock for a lump sum of
ipn [44]

Answer:

a.

Journal Entries

Dr. Cash ___________________$104,000

Cr. Common Stock ___________$5,000

Cr. Preferred stock ___________$10,000

Cr. Paid in capital Common Stock $78,200

Cr. Paid in capital Preferred stock $10,800

b.

Dr. Cash ___________________$104,000

Cr. Common Stock ___________$5,000

Cr. Preferred stock ___________$10,000

Cr. Paid in capital Common Stock $84,000

Cr. Paid in capital Preferred stock $5,000

Explanation:

a.

First, we need to calculate the fair value of each type of shares using the following formula

Fair value  = Numbers of shares x Fair value per share

Fair Value of Common Share = 500 shares x $164 per share = $82,000

Fair value of preferred share = 100 shares x $205 per share = $20,500

Total value of shares = $82,000 + $20,500 = $102,500

Now allocate the Value of $104,000 bases on the fair value

Allocation to

Common stock = $104,000 x $82,000 / $102,500 = $83,200

Preferred stock = $104,000 x $20,500 / $102,500 = $20,800

Now calculate the par values

Par Values

Common stock = 500 shares x $10 = $5,000

Preferred stock = 100 shares x $100 = $10,000

Now calculate the additional paid-in capital

Additional paid-in capital

Common stock = $83,200 - $5,000 = $78,200

Preferred stock = $20,800 - $10,000 = $10,800

b,

Value of common stock = $178 per share x 500 shares = $89,000

Additional paid in capital

Common stock = $89,000 - $5,000 = $84,000

Preferred stock = $104,000 - $89,000 - $10,000 = $10,000

xeze [42]

Answer:

a. Gordon made a gift when the real estate was purchased of <u>$450,000</u> to Fawn.

Since Gordon gave 50% of the real estate to his sister as a gift when he purchased it, the gift must be valued at the time it happened ($900,000 x 50%)

b. Gordon's estate must include <u>$2,900,000</u> as to the property.

Gordon purchased all the real estate by himself, so his estate must include the value of the whole property.

c. How would the estate tax consequences change if it was Fawn (not Gordon) who died?

Fawn's estate would include <u>$0</u> as to the property.

Since Fawn didn't buy the property, her estate cannot include any amount of it.
