The answer is: E) None of his salary can be excluded from gross income because Hank must reside overseas for the entire year

According to the IRS's Foreign Earned Income Exclusion (and Requirements) a US citizen can claim up to $105,900 (in 2019) of his gross income to be excluded from gross income in the US only if that person resided in the foreign country for at least 330 days in the last year.
Answer: sunk costs don't increase as driving increases.
Explanation: sunk costs are irrelevant costs because they have already occured in the past and cannot be avoided. Sunk costs thus do not differ between alternatives, and are unavoidable. The calculation for insurance and other sunk costs are likely not based on the amount of rides the Uber picks up, but rather calculated at a constant rate. So regardless of whether or not the rider pays more or less than the $.50 on the insurance, this will not have any effect on the insurance that is constant and has likely already been paid out.
Answer:
The answer would be PRICE SIGNALING
Explanation:
Price signaling may occur when consumers have imperfect information about product quality. To infer quality, consumers may rely on previous experience or may use some of the product’s observable characteristics, such as the product’s price. We examine the scenario whereby the firm can endogenously change consumers’ beliefs about the product’s quality by altering both the price and quality of its product. Our main findings are that, in this type of setting, price signaling causes the firm to raise its price, lower its quality, and dampen the degree to which it responds to cost shocks. If the cost of adjusting quality is sufficiently high, the dampening effect is pronounced in the downward direction, meaning that price signaling causes prices to respond less to cost decreases than cost increases.
Answer:
c. faces a downward-sloping demand curve for its product
Explanation:
Perfect Competition is a market form, having large no. of sellers, selling homogeneous products at constant prices. So, constant prices imply that their demand curve is horizontal, perfectly elastic.
Monopolistic Competition is a market form, having many sellers, selling slightly differentiated products which are incomplete substitutes of each other. The prices also vary from firm to firm, depending on product quality. So, these firms have usual downward sloping curve, denoting price-demand inverse relationship.
