Given: -
Sarah's income = 25% of the partnership income but not less than $12,000.
Net income of partnership for the year = $32,000.
To find: -
1) Amount that can be deducted by partnership as guaranteed payment.
2) Income that Sarah is to report on her tax return.
Solution: -
Partnership income = $32,000
Sarah's share = 25% of 32000 = $8,000
But Sarah must receive $12,000 (Shortfall $12,000-$8,000=$4,000)
So, 1) $4,000 can be deducted by partnership as guaranteed payment.
2) Income that Sarah needs to report on her tax return = $12,000.
Answer: Price of pumpkins will fall compared to last year.
Explanation: Favorable weather leading to a larger crop than usual means that there is more supply of pumpkins this year than before. Shifting the supply curve down to the right. At the same time, when people switch away from jack-o'-lanterns towards buying more costumes, it leads to a decline in the demand for pumpkins shifting the demand curve to the left.
The net result will be a decline in the demand for fall in the price of pumpkin. However, the effect on the quantity cannot be determined as it depends on the magnitude of shift in the two curves.

Solution :
The risk averse is the person who wishes to reduce the uncertainty attached to the money.
Certain income = $2000.
50-50 chance of 1000 and 3000 would income expected income of
(0.5 x 1000) +(0.5 x 3000) = 2000
Both of them gives an equal amount of income while there is uncertainty attached with the second case which makes the risk averse person disincline to follow.
Hence the statement is FALSE.
Assume that the population level in a country is X. 5 percent of the population are likely to get affected by the disease due to which it makes a population of 0.05 X population to be effected by the disease. The population level will cost $38,000, hence making the total healthcare cost to be 1900 X.
