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.

John is a low-level employee at an accounting firm. In his duty as an employee at the firm, John forges documents and signatures
ANEK [815]

Answer:

the three of them could be held personally liable:

  • I. John
  • II. John's manager
  • III. The CEO, who in this specific case we assume could have prevented the crime.

Explanation:

John committed forgery and possibly fraud by forging clients' signatures on documents held by the company. His boss ordered him to do so, so he is also responsible for John's actions. John can even try to put all the blame on his boss alleging that he was forced to forge the signatures. The CEO of the firm is also responsible because the forged documents had to serve someone's illegal purposes, and the CEO probably was the one that needed them or knew about what was going on and didn't do anything to stop it.

you have $6000 to invest in two stock funds. The first fund pays 5% annual interest and the second account pays 9% annual intere
stira [4]

Answer:

Amount of money invested is $2,000 and $4,000

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate how much was invested in two different accounts given the amount of money invested in both accounts.

Let the amount of money invested in both accounts be a and b respectively.

Mathematically;

A + B = 6000 ......I

Now we use the formula for simple interest to check the amount that is supposed to be made on Both accounts if he end of a year.

Formula for simple interest is I = PRT/100

Let’s apply this to what is on ground:

5*1* a/100 = 5a/100

Second is

9*b*1/100 = 9b/100

That is 5a + 9b = 38,000. ........ii

Solving Both simultaneously as follows:

Let A = 6000-b from 1

Substitute this into 2

5(6000-b) + 9b = 38,000

30,000 -5b + 9b = 38,000

4b = 8,000

b =$2000

This means a would be 6000 - 2,000 = $4000
