Answer: The TPP could lead to income disparity and also increase in the prices of certain products.

Explanation:

The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) was a free trade agreement that was made between the United States of America and eleven other countries. The TPP was between Canada, Vietnam, Japan, Peru Australia, Brunei, Mexico, Chile, Malaysia, New Zealand, Singapore and the United States.

The TPP was met with political resistance because it was believed that free trade agreements will lead to income inequality especially in high income countries as most of the gains gotten would go to employees with high income.

Also, the TPP protected patents and copyrights and this could have led to more income for the owners of intellectual property which could have led to a reduction in the availability of cheap drugs.

Adjusting factory overhead LO P4
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

26,500 Under applied

Explanation:

<em><u>Lock-Tite Company</u></em>

Actual Factory Overhead 215,000

Factory overhead Indirect materials 15,000

Indirect labor 80,000

Other overhead costs 120,000

Direct Labor = 345,000

Predetermined Overhead = 70% of $ 345,000= $ 241,500

Actual Overhead = $ 215,000

Difference = Predetermined Overhead - Actual Overhead

                = 241,500- $ 215,000= 26,500 Under applied

We find the difference between actual overhead and applied overhead to find the underapplied ( overapplied overhead. If the actual overhead is less than applied overhead it is underapplied. But if the actual overhead is greater than applied overhead it is over applied.

Raw materials Opening $ 43,000

Add Materials Purchases 195000 ( 210,000 - 15000)

Less Raw materials Closing $ 52,000

If Kindle e-readers and Nook e-readers are substitutes, a higher price for Nooks would result in a(n) ______.
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer: a) increase in the demand for Kindles.

Explanation: the substitution effect for substitute goods gives that, if the price of good A rises, the demand for good B rises. Since a substitute good is a good that can be used in place of another, they are goods that a consumer perceives as similar or are comparable, in such a way that having more of one good causes the consumer to desire less of the other good. From the viewpoint of price, and given that consumers always prefer to spend less in instances where two goods are substitutes, it then means that Kindle can be used and preferred in place of Nooks given that the price of Nooks had gone up. Therefore, increasing the price of Nooks causes a corresponding increase in the demand for Kindles.
