Answer:

e. a and c

Explanation:

The law of demand states that the higher the price, the lower the quantity demanded and the lower the price, the higher the quantity demanded. This occurs because of the law of diminishing marginal utility.

The law of diminishing marginal utility states that the more of a commodity is consumed, the lower the utility derived from the consumption of the product.

It follows that Jorge and karissa would demand less of pencils and sweaters as their prices rise.

The demand curve is usually downward sloping to illustrate the law of demand.

A school band performs a spring concert for a crowd of 600 people. the revenue for the concert is $3150. there are 150 more adul
Alla [95]
In this item, we let the number of tickets sold to the adults as x. With this, we can let the number of tickets sold to students with y. 

In this item, we are given that the sum of the number of students and adults is equal to 600. Further, we are also given that the difference is 150. The system of linear equation that would allow us to solve this item is,

               x + y = 600
               x - y = 150

Adding up the two equations will give us,
              2x = 750
Dividing by 2,
              x = 375

Substituting this value to the first equation,
          375 + y = 600
                 y = 225

Therefore, there are 375 and 225 number of tickets sold to adults and students, respectively.

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Lightning Inc.

Computation of Bad Debts Expense:

7% of $7,500 =   $525

21% of $1,600 =    336

46% of $1,300 =   598

Total                 $1,459

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Credit Sales $ 20,000

Accounts Payable 10,000

Accounts Receivable 10,400

Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts 400 credit

Cash Sales 20,000

Lightning uses the aging method and estimates it will not collect 7% of accounts receivable not yet due, 21% of receivables up to 30 days past due, and 46% of receivables greater than 30 days past due.

The accounts receivable balance of $10,400 consists of $7,500 not yet due, $1,600 up to 30 days past due, and $1,300 greater than 30 days past due.

Age Analysis of Accounts Receivable balance of $10,400

                  Not yet due     up to 30 days         greater than 30

                                               past due              days past due

Percentage         7%                         21%                  46%

Balance           $7,500                  $1,600               $1,300

Bad debts          $525                     $336                 $598

Bad debts Expense = $1,459
