When does it make sense for government to interfere with a pure market outcome?

1 answer:

5 0

There are several situations when the government has to interfere with a pure market outcome. If the price of a product rises without any significant cause or if there is more supply than demand of a market, then the government can put a price ceiling or floor price of a product. This is purely to keep the economy of a country or state stable.

Karen and Ethan execute the same roles and responsibilities at their organization. However, Ethan earns more than Karen. Under t

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

The answer is B. Ethan has more experience than Karen.

Explanation:

Now, lets take each Answer option separately and see why only B is correct.

Option A is no longer legally accepted or ethical. Perhaps during the era of segregation back in 1960s' this option could have been acceptable. But today it is illegal and is considered as a violation of basic human rights.

Option C is not correct as well because although people with special needs and physical requirements are entitled to receive certain special treatments, paying them more solely based on their disability is not considered suitable nor ethical.

Option D is unacceptable. No one can assume that men have more stamina than women. There are competent, strong and qualified women who can do their jobs much better than men. So we cannot accept this as an answer.

Option E is incorrect as well. Although a person could be an immigrant, once that person has lawfully taken the citizenship of a country, that "immigrant" is considered as a "citizen" of that country (this is not applicable for illegal immigrants!).

However, we can take option B as the answer. This is because when comparing a new employee with a more experienced employee, we can't see any problem in paying the experienced employee more.

Accents Associates sells only one product, with a current selling price of $150 per unit. Variable costs are 30% of this selling

Ksju [112]

Answer:

$65,333

Explanation:

As we know,

Sales price = Variable cost + Contribution cost

Sales price = Variable cost ratio + Contribution margin ratio

100% = 30% + Contribution

Contribution = 100% - 30%

Contribution = 70%

Fixed cost = $19,600

Break even sales = Fixed cost / Contribution margin ratio

Break even sales = $19,600 / 30%

Break even sales = $19,600 / 0.3

Break even sales = $65,333.
