Answer: Both Arianna and Alexander

Explanation: This is a general partnership. In a general partnership, all partners are personally liable for all business debts. They do not need to have any agreement to be partners or register their partnership formally to enter into a general partnership. The fact that they share an office, have a joint sign and an account is sufficient to establish this form of partnership.

Also, in a general partnership, each partner is held severally liable, that is if  one of them is liable to pay a business debt and cannot afford to pay, the other partner has to.

Monopolist profit maximizing price

A: $3 per gallon , total output =270 Kelvins profit = $810(801/7/2 = $405

Maria's profit = $405

B. $2.5 per gallon . Kelvin's profit =$450 Maria's profit = 337.5

C = False. At the same quantity , fall in price brings fall in revenue

Cournot Nash equilibrium

Explanation:

In a monopolist market system , price are set higher than the marginal cost as the producer enjoy the dominance of the market through the production of a unique good.

At the price of $3 , change in demand =(270-225) =45 , change in revenue = ($810-$787.50)22.5 and marginal revenue = (45/22,5) = 0.5. That forms the maximizing price for a monopolist.

On the new arrangement , price drops to $2.5 , Maria's profit =(315-45/2)2.5 = $337.5 and Kelvin's = ($787.5-337.5) = $450

Cournot Nash equilibrium is business model that explains the competition among rival companies producing similar product on the level of output produced independently.

True or false?
Sidana [21]

Answer:

The statement is: True.

Explanation:

If we have been given an assignment, it is important to set a schedule of activities to ensure that the final form of our work is delivered on or before the <em>due date</em>, if possible. In the way, there could be problems of various types -for example, technology when delivering a report- that could interrupt our work. Therefore, it is important to consider those risks while scheduling so that we have a contingency plan that will not impact our research and the date we will deliver it.

Barry has a medical plan with a $1,200 deductible, 20% coinsurance, and a $5,000 coinsurance cap. His allowable medical expenses
Trava [24]

Based on his deductible and coinsurance cap, the amount that Barry will pay is <u>$4,560.</u>

<h3>Amount Barry will pay </h3>

Barry will have to pay the entire deductible of $1,200. The expenses that are left will then be shared between him and the insurer in a 20% - 80% ratio but he will not pay more than $5,000.

Total he will pay out of pocket is therefore:

= Deductible + ( 20% x (Medical expenses - deductible))

Solving gives:

= 1,200 + ( 20% x (18,000 - 1,200))

= $4,560

In conclusion, he will pay $4,560.
