Answer: It should shot down immediately.

Explanation:

If the market price is equal to average cost at the profit-maximizing level of output, then the firm is making zero profits. If the market price that a perfectly competitive firm faces is below average variable cost at the profit-maximizing quantity of output, then the firm should shut down operations immediately.

Inventory at the end of the year was inadvertently overstated. Which of the following statements correctly states the effect of
jasenka [17]

Answer:

B net income is overstated, assets are overstated, and stockholders' equity is overstated

Explanation:

The movement in the balance of inventory at the start and end of a period is as a result of sales and purchases. While sales reduces the balance in inventory, purchases increases the balance. This may be expressed mathematically as

Opening balance + purchases - cost of goods sold = closing balance

Hence, where ending inventory balance is overstated, cost of goods sold is understated. When cost of goods sold is understated, gross and net incomes are overstated. Hence owner's equity is overstated and asset overstated.
