Answer:

35.29%

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Market price of the used book = $85

Discounted price = $55

Now,

The percentage change in the book price will be calculated as:

=\frac{\textup{Market price - Discounted price}}{\textup{Market price}}\times100

on substituting the respective values, we get

=\frac{85-55}{85}\times100

= 35.29%

Hence,

the percentage change in the book price is 35.29%

Total production= 72,250

<u>May:</u>

Sales= 85,000

Desired ending inventory= 110,000*0.15= 16,500

Beginning inventory= (12,750)

Total production= 88,750

<u>June:</u>

Sales= 110,000

Desired ending inventory= 90,000*0.15= 13,500

Beginning inventory= (16,500)

For each scenario, decide whether it creates a producer or a consumer surplus. Then, calculate the ensuing surplus.
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

Alice's consumer surplus =  $5

Jeff's consumer surplus = $16

Nicole's producer surplus = $1

Explanation:

Consumer surplus is the difference between the willingness to pay of a consumer and the price of a good.

Consumer surplus = willingness to pay - price of the good

Producer surplus is the difference between the price of a good and the least price the producer is willing to accept

Producer surplus = price of the good - least price the producer is willing to accept

Alice's consumer surplus = $30 - ($35 - $10) = $5

Jeff's consumer surplus = $20 - [$16 - (0.75 x $16)] = $16

Nicole's producer surplus = $501 - $500 = $1

Why do you think companies felt that unions were "conspiracies that interfere with property rights"?
Dafna1 [17]
Companies felt that unions were conspiracies which interfere with property right because, unions usually challenge the employers about the working conditions of their workers and the manner the employers treat their workers; they fight for the rights of the worker. Because of this, employers usually do all they can to stop unions from forming.
