Answer:

a. cognitive dissonance.

Explanation:

Cognitive dissonance is the psychological concept that describes the discomfort a person feels when he is having conflicting beliefs ideas or values at the same time. People tend to seek consonance (agreement) between the what they expect and reality.

In this instance Steve Walker got the computer he wanted at $12,000, seeing a similar computer at $10,000 makes him have a doubts about his purchase (cognitive dissonance).

Which statement is correct?
Allisa [31]

Answer: (C)  The production of non durable consumer goods is more stable than the production of durable consumer goods over the business cycle.

 The consumer durability of the goods has the significant life span and the production of the non durable goods of the consumer are basically purchased for the immediate consumption over the business cycle so that is why it is more stable as compared to the production of the durable goods.

The example of the durable consumer goods are smartphones, furniture and the other household appliances. On the other hand, the non durable consumer goods are more stable as it contain daily use material like food, clothes and beverages.

the average will be calcualte as (beginning + ending)/2

<em>Assets turnover:</em>

sales/average assets

sales 4,700,000

(2,505,000 + 2,585,000) / 2 = 2,545,000

Ratio: 1,8467 = 1.85

<em>Account Receivable Turnover:</em>

sales/ average turnover

<u></u>

<u>Residual income:</u>

net income - Equity x expected return

    333,000 - 1,150,500 x 0.21 =

     333,000  -  241,605‬  = 91,395

Future economic trends are not influenced by economic theories. True or false?
nikklg [1K]
That statement is false.
Economic theories will determine how companies see the market and will somehow affect the decision that they will make for the market.
This decision will influence the future economic trends because these companies usually are really forward thinkers. From this, we could draw a correlation between future economic trends and economic theories
