Answer: E. None of the Statements is true.

Explanation:

Statement 1 is false because the firm should shutdown only after market prices have dropped below Average Variable Costs not Average Fixed costs because the fixed costs have already or will be incurred regardless. The best way to limit losses would be to stop the activity that adds more costs per unit which would be variable costs.

Statement 2 is also false because profit will be made when the firm sells at a price that exceeds Average Total Cost not just Average Variable Cost.

The firm maximises profit at a point where Marginal Revenue equals Marginal Cost. If Marginal Revenue exceed marginal cost as it the case here, it means resources are being underutilised and the perfectly competitive firm needs to produce more to maximise profit not less. Statement 3 is therefore wrong as well.

A business organized as a separate legal entity from its owners is a: Proprietor Partnership Government unit Corporation
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Corporation.

Explanation:

A business organized as a separate legal entity from its owners is a corporation.

A limited liability company (LLC) can be a corporation and basically it refers to a private company in which the owners are legally responsible for the company's debts but only to the amount of capital he or she has invested. The LLC can be referred to as a hybrid business entity that combines the limited liability-shield of a corporation with the pass-through taxation of a sole-proprietorship or partnership business.

In the United States of America, the owner of a LLC is not legally liable for the company's liability or debts.

Additionally, it is very important that in the decision-making process, an organization consults a variety of its key or essential staffs such as managers, directors, stakeholders and executives. Furthermore, when the decision making process has been completed and a position taken, it is necessary that the organization communicates in clear and concise terms the details or parameters which influenced the choice to its audience such as investors, customers, employees etc.
