Answer: If the commercial is TRUE that every additional bite of food tastes as good as the first, the marginal utility from consuming more of the advertised product must be CONSTANT. Option D.
Explanation:
Marginal utility is the additional satisfaction an individual gets, from consuming an additional unit of a product or service.
Therefore, in the scenario given above, if every additional bite of food tastes as good as the first, then the additional satisfaction is just as good as the preceding satisfaction. We can therefore say that the marginal utility gotten from consuming that product is constant.
Answer:
17.10%
Explanation:
The computation of the cost of equity is shown below:
In this question, we apply the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) formula which is shown below
Expected rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)
= 6.10% + 1.25 × 8.8%
= 6.10% + 11%
= 17.10%
The (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return) is also known as market risk premium and the same is applied.

Giving the following information:
Variable costs per unit:
Direct materials $17

Product cost= 17 + 47 + 11= $75
Answer: $3000
Explanation: Allowance for doubtful accounts is the contra account to accounts receiveable when all the bad debts need to be accounted for. The bad debts reduces the accounts receivable line but all bad debts are actually deducted from the allowance for doubtful accounts.
The allowance for doubtful accounts for that year is calculated as 5% of the accounts receivable balance. This amounts to $8000 (160000 x 5%) before bad debts have been accounted for. Allowance for doubtful accounts moves in the opposite direction as accounts receivable because it is a contra account to this line item. At the end of the year before year end closing entries are done, and after the bad debts have been accounted for, the balance on the allowance for doubtful accounts is $5000.
This means that bad debts for that year is:
8000 (balance before bad debts have been accounted for)
- 5000 (balance after bad debts have been accounted for)
= $3000.
