Answer:

The correct answer is letter "E": The marginal benefit of sleeping 10 more minutes is greater than the marginal benefit of 10 more minutes of work.

Explanation:

Marginal Benefit is an economic term that describes the maximum amount a consumer is willing to pay for an additional unit of a good or service. Typically, the marginal benefit decreases as long as the person consumes more of that good or service. The price-benefit relationship is inversely proportional.

In the example, the marginal benefit of sleeping 10 minutes more must be greater than the marginal benefit of working 10 more minutes if economists choose to sleep a little bit more.

416,000 people each receive an average refund of $3,600, based on an interest rate of 3 percent, what would be the lost annual i
victus00 [196]

Answer:

$44,928,000

Explanation:

The fact that 416,000 received a refund of $3,600 each means that the tax authority would lose the interest income that could have been generated on the total refund amount based on a 3% interest rate of return.

Lost annual income=number of people who got refund*average refund per person*interest rate of return

number of people who got refund=416000

average refund per person=$3,600

the interest rate of return=3%

Lost annual income=416,000*$3,600*3%

Lost annual income=$44,928,000

D. Patty may win under the doctrine of promissory estoppel.

Explanation:

Here, in the given question it is mentioned that Patty is a student who is poor and he is struggling to work and also keep up with her studies inspite of the difficulties.

According to what hr uncle promised he gave her the amount which he promised to but this was done for a month and then without saying anything or giving any reason he stopped giving her the amount he promised to.

So, now in this scenario if patty sues the likely result would be:

d. Patty may win under the doctrine of promissory estoppel.

Contribution Margin for Bat

= $50 - $50

= $0

Contribution Margin for Gloves = $100 - $80

Precision Camera Services started the year with total assets of​ $120,000 and total liabilities of​ $40,000. The company is a so
eimsori [14]

Answer:

$125,000

Explanation:

Opening values of;

Total assets =​ $120,000

Total liabilities = $40,000

Total equity = $120,000 - $40,000 = $80,000

During the year,

Total revenues = $140,000

Total expenses = $50,000

Withdrawal by owner = $45,000

The amount withdrawn by the owner reduces the owners equity. This may be deducted from the net income.

Net income from the year = $140,000 - $50,000 - $45,000

                                           = $45,000

This will be added to the opening owner's equity to get the closing owner's equity.

Owner's equity at the end of the​ year = $80,000 + $45,000  

                                                               = $125,000
