b. The price of a substitute good (in consumption) increases. Equilibrium price stays same and quantity sold will rise

c. The price of a substitute good (in production) increases. Equilibrium price stays same and quantity sold will rise

d. The price of a complement good (in consumption) increases. Equilibrium price rises and quantity sold will decline.

e. The price of inputs used to produce the good increases. Equilibrium price rises and quantity sold will decline.

f. Consumers expect that the price of the good will increase in the near future. Equilibrium price rises and quantity sold will also rise.

g. It is widely publicized that consumption of the good is hazardous to health. Equilibrium price declines and quantity sold will also decline.

For each of the pair of events indicated below, perform qualitative analysis to predict the direction of change in either the equilibrium price or equilibrium quantity. Explain why the change is indeterminate.

a. Both a and h conditions occur simultaneously. This will raise the equilibrium since good is now cheaper to produce and consumer has more income to purchase it however effect on price will be dubious.

b. Both d and e conditions occur simultaneously. Equilibrium price rises and quantity will decline.

c. Both d and h conditions occur simultaneously. Dubious effect increase in price of complementary good and reduction in cost due to latest technology will offset each other’s effect and equilibrium will not change if the magnitude of both effects is the same

d. Both f and c conditions occur simultaneously Equilibrium price rises and Equilibrium quantity will also rise.

On January 20, 2017, Tamira Nelson, the accountant for Picton Enterprises, is feeling pressure to complete the annual financial
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

this case tells us about some sort of pressures that accounts feel when financial statements are needed urgently

Explanation:

1) As for using low estimates, this step was wrong on her part. she should have been upfront in her estimates. for the items that she could not estimate there should have been an indication that such items were still under review, instead of doing what she did to give the financial estimate a good look. Using guesses or deliberately using low estimates was a bad idea, GAAP would never condone that.

She should have met with the president and let him know that finalization of the financial statements would not possible within the time frame that he has given. She could have also explain that such delays are normal and she would have given estimates of when the draft internal copy would be made available to him. such steps she took could have resulted in serious consequences for the company

2) I would not inflate or deflate the figures on purpose to make financial statements look better. If it is time to present the draft and final year-end financial statements I will have to tell the truth on the numbers and estimations used and also the reasons for that. i would have explained the constraints that i was facing. if i was still being pressurized by the president,  i would have no choice than to call it quits instead of going against the ethics of my profession, since there are both ethical and legal implications to not giving inaccurate financial statements.
