Answer: Option C  

           

Explanation: The maximum amount of money that a consumer is willing to pay for having an additional unit of a good or service is called the marginal benefit. Whereas, marginal cost refers to the increase in total cost when one more unit of output is produced.

In the given case, we want to use the available resources at their best, therefore, the money on pollution control should be spent only until the benefit of spending one more dollar is greater than the cost of doing so.

Hence, the correct option is C.

The owner of Grandma's Applesauce is planning to retire after the coming year. She has to repay a loan of $50,000 plus 8 percent
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

Option (B) $5,000

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Repayment of Loan = $50,000

Interest = 8%

Cash flow             Probability

$65,000                    70%

$45,000                    30%

Tax rate = 0%

Now,

Interest on loan = 8% of $50,000

= $4,000

Expected value of cash flow = ∑[cash flow × Probability ]

= ( 0.7 × $65,000 ) + ( 0.3 × $45,000 )

= $45,500 + $13,500

= $59,000

The owner's expected cash flow after debt service

= Expected value of cash flow - Interest on loan - Repayment of Loan

= $59,000 - $4,000 - $50,000

= $5,000

Hence,

Option (B) $5,000

yulyashka [42]

Incomplete question. The full question read;

Malcolm has several receipts from recent transactions that he entered into his records. The receipts include an ATM receipt for an $80.00 deposit, a grocery store receipt for $25.50, and a paycheck deposit slip for $650.00.

When he finishes entering his transactions, Malcolm realizes that his balance is incorrect. Assuming that Malcolm had no beginning balance, what should his correct balance be?

Answer:

<u>$704.50</u>

Explanation:

First, we need to note which transactions are credit transactions, and which is a debit transaction. <em>Remember</em>, a<u> credit transaction</u> basically means a transaction that brings money into your account, while the latter is a transaction that takes money out of your account.

Malcolm's credit transactions:

  • ATM receipt for an $80.00 deposit
  • paycheck deposit slip for $650.00

Total: <u>$730.</u>

Malcolm's debit transactions:

  • grocery store receipt for $25.50

Total: $25.50

Substracting total debit transactions from credit transactions, Malcolm's correct balance would be = $704.50 ($730-$25.50).
