The price of coffe beans use to make coffee has decreased. At the same time, the price of cream (a compliment good) has increase

Sonbull [250]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

Equilibrium price will decrease; the effect on quantity is ambiguous. (D)

Explanation:

First, note that if the price of coffee beans, used in the manufacture of coffee decreases, the price of coffee sold to consumers will decrease, because it takes a lesser amount in manufacturing than it used to, therefore this reduction in manufacturing costs is reflected in the selling price.

Next, it is hard to tell whether this reduction in equilibrium price will affect quantity demanded, because, at the same time, the price of cream ( a complementary good) increases, and since both goods are complementary, they are bought together, and the effect of the reduction in the price of coffee might not necessarily caused an increase in the quantity demanded because this effect is cancelled out by the increase in the price of cream, hence the effect on quantity is ambiguous.

On January 1, 2018, Lumos Company purchased a machine for $70,200. Lumos uses straight-line depreciation and estimates an eight-

jeka94

Answer:

Gain= $4,200

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Purchase price (2018)= $70,200

Salvage value= $5,400

Useful life= 8 years

Selling price= $42,000

First, we need to calculate the depreciation expense and accumulated depreciation:

Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)

Annual depreciation= (70,200 - 5,400) / 8

Annual depreciation= $8,100

Accumulated depreciation (ending 2021)= 8,100*4= $32,400

If the selling price is higher than the book value, the company gain from the sale. Now, we need to determine the book value.

Book value= purchase price - accumulated depreciation

Book value= 70,200 - 32,400= $37,800

Gain/loss= selling price - book value

Gain/loss= 42,000 - 37,800

Gain= $4,200

Anettt [7]

Answer:

d. A company with assets totaling $50 billion.

Explanation:

In order to calculate the material impact of the lawsuit on each company, we must divide the settlement by total assets. In this case, we do not need to do the math, we simply have to select which company has the most assets. The more assets a company has, the lesser the material impact of any unfavorable settlement.
