Do all markets function the same way around the world?

Business
1 answer:
Alika [10]3 years ago
7 0
Well honestly, markets are how people function; markets don’t function, people do.

We speak of the “functioning of markets” as a shorthand, a figure of speech because abstracting human behavior to the behavior of a system is useful, as long as we don’t forget that it is an abstraction and not a real thing.

This is the same when we speak of “the roar of the crowd” even though people roar, not crowds. It just takes too long to write “the noise of the people in the crowd roaring at the same time”.

It is easier to write “the functioning of the market” than “what happens as people interact with each other.” Markets are the interactions of people .

So, do people behave and interact the same way around the world? Obviously not. Are the results the same? Yes they are: people serve each other and, in the process, create wealth. But both wealth and service vary by culture.

If that makes sense... anyway, have a nice night!

Answer:

The journal entry is as follows:

Cash A/c                                                          Dr.  $51.45

To Paid in capital in excess of par value A/c                   $51.42

To Common shares A/c                                                     $0.03

(To record the sale of the shares)    

Note: The amount mentioned in debit and credit column in the above journal entry are in the millions of dollar.

Workings:

Cash = Shares sold × shares closing price

        = $3 million × $17.15

        = $51.45 million

Common shares = Shares sold × Par value per share

                            = $3 million × $0.01

                            = $0.03 million

Paid in capital in excess of par value = Cash - Common shares

                                                              = $51.45 - $0.03

                                                              = $51.42

What factors are used in the rule-of-thumb methods to determine the communication budget?.
xz_007 [3.2K]

Prior sales and communication activities

To determine the current communication budget, rule-of-thumb methods use prior sales and communication activities. These methods are simple to implement, but they do have some limitations.

<h3>What is rule-of-thumb?</h3>

A rule-of-thumb is a heuristic guideline that gives simplified counsel or a fundamental rule-set for a certain subject or course of action. It is a broad principle that provides specific directions for completing or performing a task. Generally, rules of thumb emerge from practice and experience rather than scientific study or a theoretical underpinning.
