Answer:

The correct option is the third one,$250,687

Explanation:

The key to ascertaining is accounting equation which that assets equal capital plus liabilities.

This implies that by determining the capital and liabilities,total assets sorted out.

  Common stock                                    $52,705

  *Retained earnings for the year          $62,223

Total equity and retained earnings     $114,928

total liabilities                                        $135,759

Total equity and liabilities                     $250,687

Total assets=total equity and liabilities=$250,687

Retained earnings for the year=prior year retained earnings+net profit-dividends paid

prior year retained earnings $40,723

net profit is $36,500

dividends is $15,000

*retained earnings for the year=$40,723+$36,500-$15,000=$62223

Suppose the production of cotton causes substantial environmental damage because the pesticides used by cotton farmers often mak
Kipish [7]

Answer: C. inefficiently low; inefficiently high

Explanation:

If the cotton farmers are not made to pay for the damage that their pesticides cost then they will maintain production at a relatively high level because their input costs will be relatively low. As a result of this high level of production, the price of the goods will be relatively low as well. The point at which both market equilibrium quantity and price are at in this scenario are considered inefficient because they are not taking into account, the true cost of production being the effects of the pesticides being used.

However, if they are made to pay for this negative externality that they are the cause of, it will increase their production cost and force them to reduce production to keep these costs low. As they reduce production, the market price will increase as supply is less.

Allisa [31]

Answer:
