Answer:

The answer is: B) Market B

Explanation:

Deadweight loss refers to an economic loss caused by market inefficiencies.

Market inefficiencies occur when supply and demand are not in equilibrium. In market A, the tax will barely affect the equilibrium quantity, so the deadweight loss will not be as large as in market B where the equilibrium quantity will be severely affected.

Explanation:

b.) Noncollectable amount = $5300 * 35% = 1855

 Entry: Dr bad debts expense  1855

                  Cr Allowance for bad debts     1855

        (To record bad debts expense).

5300-1855= 3445 * 3% = $103 will not be collected.

You short sold 1,100 shares of stock at a price of $29 and an initial margin of 55 percent. If the maintenance margin is 40 perc
Margaret [11]

Answer:

No of stock = 1100

Price of Stock = 29

Short sale = 31900

Initial Margin % = 55%

Initial Margin = 17545

Total value = 49445

The earnings of the sale is 31900, which is deposited in our account for a total account value of $49,445 (31900+55%)

Maintenance Margin = 40%

Margin Call Value = 49445/ (1+0.4)

Margin Call Value = 35317.86

Price per share = 35317.86 / 1100  

Price per share = 32.11

So a margin call will be triggered when the price of the shorted security rises to $32.11

Margin Call Price = 32.11

Account Equity = 32.11*1100

Account Equity = 35318
