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.

Accounts Payable: $19,207
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

total liabilities = $169,008

Explanation:

total liabilities:

  • Accounts Payable: $19,207
  • Discount on Bonds Payable: ($7,000) ⇒ contra liability account
  • Sales Tax Payable: 3,512
  • FICA Tax Payable: 3,200
  • Bonds Payable: 100,000
  • Note Payable, due in two years 1,709
  • Unearned Service Revenue 30,500 ⇒ must be reported as a liability
  • Salaries and Wages Payable 17,880

to determine the total liabilities we just have to add both current and long term liabilities, and subtract any contra liability accounts = $176,008 - $7,000 = $169,008

Suppose the country of Stan has fixed its exchange rate to the dollar. The official exchange rate is 0.50 U.S. dollars per rupee
In-s [12.5K]

Answer and Explanation:

1. At 0fficial exchange rate:

100 * 0.5 = $50

what I want to buy would be purchased at $50

at market exchange rate:

0.25 x 100 = $25

products bought from this place are not a good deal as I am paying more than the market exchange rate.

2. at equilibrium exchange rate:

100 x 0.25% = $25

the price is $25

3. from answers 1 and 2, I will not want demand Stan's rupees. the products are costly to get.

4. Stan's currency is obviously overvalued. the people from this country now has increased purchasing power so they can purchase goods in dollars, therefore they would be supplying their currency.

5. They will have to buy up the surplus of rupees so that they can easily keep up with maintaining the rupee at half a dollar.

You wish to buy a cabin in 15 years. TODAY, the cabin costs $150,000. You believe the price of the cabin will inflate at 4% annu
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

I will need to invest 64,669.73 dollars now.

Explanation:

We will calcualte the future value of the cabin considering the inflation:

Principal \: (1+ inflation )^{time} = Amount

Principal 150,000.00

time  15 years

inflation 0.04000

150000 \: (1+ 0.04)^{15} = Amount

Amount 270,141.53

Then we calculate the present value of the lump sum at 15 years discounted at 10% which is the yield of the funds

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Maturity  270,141.53

time   15 years

rate  0.10

\frac{270141.53}{(1 + 0.1)^{15} } = PV  

PV   64,669.73

we would need to deposit 64,669.73 today to get enough cash to purchase the bcabin in 15 years.
