Answer:

If the U.S. government decided to regulate the prices of airline tickets to keep them from falling when the economy is weak, there would tend to be a <u>SUPPLY SURPLUS</u> of airline tickets in the market and this would likely <u>DECREASE</u> the profits of U.S. airlines.

Explanation:

In order to regulate the prices of airline tickets, the government will most likely impose a binding price floor, which means setting up a minimum price. The problem is that since the price floor is above the equilibrium price, then the quantity supplied will increase (as price is higher) but the quantity demanded will decrease (since the price is too high).

A price floor always results in a loss of economic efficiency resulting in a deadweight loss that hurts both suppliers and consumers. Suppliers will offer more services increasing their costs, while consumers will stop flying.

Location Score
dolphi86 [110]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of composite score for each location is shown below:-

Composite score for A is

= 0.15 × 89 + .20 × 75 + 0.18 × 92 + 0.27 × 92 + 0.10 × 93 + 0.10 × 90

= 88.05

 Composite score for B is

= 0.15 × 78 + .20 × 93 + 0.18 × 90 + 0.27 × 93 + 0.10 × 97 + 0.10 × 96

= 90.91

Composite score for C is

= 0.15 × 84 + .20 × 98 + 0.18 × 87 + 0.27 × 82 + 0.10 × 84 + 0.10 × 95

= 87.90

Therefore for computing the composite score for each location we simply multiply weight with A location and in the same manner of A, B and C

b. The maximum composite score from A, B and C is B

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

6.67   years

Explanation:

The number of years for the firm to reach the desired value of $1.2 million can determined using the  nper formula in excel as below:

=nper(rate,pmt,pv,-fv)

rate  is the interest rate earns by the fund at 10% per year

pmt is the addition to the fund in each year which is $50,000

pv is the current amount in the fund which is $400,000

fv is the desired value of $1.2 million

=nper(10%,50000,400000,-1200000)=  6.67  years

It would take  6.67   years for the sinking fund to reach the desired value of $1,200,000

In the perfectly competitive gadget industry there are 10 firms with identical costs given by C = 500 + 20q + q2, none of which
IgorC [24]

Answer:

The explanation is below

Explanation:

A.  Shutdown point is achieved when price equal AVC. when price lowers than the AVC, firm shutdown.

VC = q^2

AVC = q

So,

P = q is the shutdown point.

B.  For profit maximizing level of output,

P = MR = MC

500 = 20 + 2q

q = 240 units

So, profit maximization level of output = 240 units

C.  Firm level supply curve = MC curve above the shutdown point

Number of firms = 5

So,

Industry supply curve = 10*MC = 200+20Q

Industry supply curve = 200+20Q

It shows that MC curve above the shutdown point is supply curve.
