Answer:

diminishing marginal utility.

Explanation:

The term diminishing marginal utility is used to describe the common pattern whereby each marginal unit of a consumed good provides less of an addition to utility than the previous unit.

In Economics, The law of diminishing marginal utility states that as the unit of a good or service consumed by an individual increases, the additional satisfaction he or she derives from consuming additional units would start decreasing or diminishing as the units of good or service consumed increases.

<em>For example, buying a chocolate bar and eating it may satisfy your cravings but eating another one wouldn't give you as much satisfaction as the first due to diminishing marginal utility. </em>

d. $18,125.

Answer:

$25,375

This results in closing of expense and income accounts for the year and the resulting balance taken forward to retained earnings. This means that After-Closing Trial Balance would contain only permanent general accounts which are balance sheet items. In the given scenario, the balance sheet debit balances are as under:

Cash                                                $7,750

Accounts Receivable                     $6,375

Office Equipment                           <u>$11,250 </u>

Total Debit Balance                      <u>$25,375</u>

Hence the option A is correct.

Arisa [49]

Answer:

15.4%

Explanation:

Calculation to determine your best guess for the rate of return on the stock

The revised estimate on the rate of return on

the stock would be:

Before

14% = α +[4%*1] + [6%*0.4]

α = 14% - 6.4%

α = 7.6%

With the changes:

7.6% + [5%*1] + [7%*0.4]

= 7.6% + 5% + 2.8%

= 15.4%

Therefore your best guess for the rate of return on the stock will be 15.4%

Bill O’Brien would like to take his wife, Mary, on a trip three years from now to Europe to celebrate their 40th anniversary. He
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

10%

Explanation:

Use future value formula

Future Value =  Present Value ((1+r)^n)

26,600 =  20,000 ((1+r)^3

26,600/20,000 = (1+r)^3

1.33 = (1+r)^3

1.33^1/3 = 1+r

1.0997 = 1+r

1.0997 - 1 = r

r = 0.997 = 9.97% = 10% (rounded of to the nearest whole percentage)
