So here is how we are going to find the answer.
Given that T = $2 and S = $3 and the total amount is $576.
Since people bought 3 times <span>as many T-shirts as shorts, we can say that S = 3 (T)
Therefore: T + 3 (T) = 576
4T = 576
T= $144
S = 3 (T)
S = 3 (144)
S = $432

Now that we have the total amount of each items, we will divide them with the corresponding price.
T = $2, 144 divided by 2 and we get 72. Therefore, 72 T-shirts were sold. 
S = $3, So, 432 divided by 3, and we get 144. Therefore, 144 shorts were sold.
Hope this answers your question. Have a great day!</span>

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

Jacob purchased 10000 shares form Grebe corporation two years ago for $24000

last year Jacob received a non taxable stock dividend of 2000 shares from Grebe corporation

In the current year tax year Jacob sold all stock received as dividend that's 2000 shares for $18000

The gain of the sale of 2000 shares can be calculated by subtracting the basis in the shares from the cost price. the cost of shares = ( $24000 / 12000 ) = $2 per share

profit made from the sales of 2000 shares is calculated as follows ; selling price ( $18000 ) - cost price of 2000 shares ( $2 * 2000) , the profit is $14000 and it is in the long term because the original shares bought has been held for at least 1 year

Suppose the number of firms you compete with has recently increased. You estimated that as a result of the increased competition
marysya [2.9K]

Answer and Explanation:

An increase in the number of firms increases the demand elasticity. As the demand elasticity increases from 2 to 3 it means you could encounter less demand if product prices are increased. At a demand elasticity of -3, it is regarded as inelastic demand and a change in price will not affect the demand for the product as customers are still likely to patronize the product example gasoline. Due to its high demand, an increase in price will not readily affect the demand for it. Therefore if you are to change the price from $10 at 2 to 3 demand elasticity increase, the percentage of increase from 2 to 3 is given as.

3-2/2 X 100 = 50%

The new charge (x) at -3 demand elasticity = 50%/3 = 0.66666666

The increase in the new charge is therefore $10 + $10x = $10 + $10(0.166666) = $11.67

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer: b. an asset for the bank and a liability for Kellie's Print Shop. The loan does not increase the money supply.

Explanation:

Banks make money by loaning out money to people and companies. This means that loans are an asset to banks because it enables them to generate cash.

Kellie's Print Shop will have to pay back to loan however which means that it is a liability to them because they owe the bank.

This loan will not increase the money supply because if not explicitly stated that it does, we assume that the loan was made from bank deposits by other bank customers which means that it is already part of the money supply.
