Answer:

D. None of the above

Explanation:

Proper double entry bookkeeping requires that there must always be an offsetting debit and credit for all entries made into the general ledger. To record accounts payable, the accountant credits accounts payable when the bill or invoice is received. The debit offset for this entry is typically to an expense account for the good or service that was purchased on credit. The debit could also be to an asset account if the item purchased was a capitalizable asset. When the bill is paid, the accountant debits accounts payable to decrease the liability balance. The offsetting credit is made to the cash account, which also decreases the cash balance.

Taya2010 [7]

Answer: raise; reduce

Explanation:

A Supply shock is described as a situation where the supply of a good changes suddenly/ abruptly due to an unforeseen event.

Supply shocks can be positive but are usually negative so we will assume the supply shock is negative here.

If there is a negative supply shock, the amount of goods being produced will reduce abruptly which will force the supply curve to shift left.

It will then intercept the the demand curve at an equilibrium level that has a higher price and a lower quantity of output.

Think of it this way. Negative supply shock ⇒ less goods ⇒ scarcity ⇒ higher prices.

AveGali [126]

Answer:

Each player can adopt a T for T strategy or a trigg er strategy. It is important to state that these strategies were not possible in a one-time game.

The equilibrium is that both players answer honest and each makes normal profit.

Both games, the P risoners' dilemma and this game, have a cooperative equilibrium in the long term. If a player employs a trig ger strategy or a T for T strategy, they can reach the cooperative honesty/honesty outcome.

In a short term, game equilibrium is not likely due to lying is more profitable than answer honestly deploying stated strategies.
