Answer:

a) consumer

$5

Explanation:

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

Willingness to pay is the highest amount a consumer would be willing to pay for a product. The willingness to pay in this question is $30.

The price of the goods is $35 but Alice would pay ($35 - $10) = $25

The consumer surplus is $30 - $25 = $5

Producer surplus is the difference between the price of a product and the lowest price a supplier would be willing to sell his product.

I hope my answer helps you.

The following units of an inventory item were available for sale during the year: Beginning inventory 11 units at $51 First purc
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

$2,338

Explanation:

For computing the ending inventory, first we have to determine the average cost per unit, then ending inventory units which are shown below:

= (Beginning inventory units × price per unit +  first purchase inventory units × price per unit + second purchase inventory units × price per unit + third purchase inventory units × price per unit) ÷ (Beginning inventory units + one purchase inventory units + second purchase inventory units + third purchase inventory units)

= (11 units × $51 + 15 units × $53 + 21 units × $55 + 17 units × $57) ÷ (11 units + 15 units + 21 units + 17 units)

= ($561 + $795 + $1,155 + $969 ) ÷ (64 units)

= ($3,480) ÷ (64 units)

= $54.375 per unit

Now the ending inventory units would be

= Available units for sale - sale units

= 64 units - 21 units

= 43 units

Now the ending inventory would be

= Ending inventory units × average cost per unit

= 43 units × $54.375 per unit

= $2,338

If the Federal Reserve lowers the target federal funds rate, Group of answer choices the discount rate rises liquidity in the ba
navik [9.2K]

Answer: Liquidity in the banking system is increased

Explanation:

The Federal Funds rate is the interest rate at which commercial banks are allowed to lend each other their excess reserves overnight to meet reserve requirements.

If this rate were to be reduced, it would make lending cheaper between banks who would then take advantage of this to borrow more occasionally. This will then translate to a higher liquidity amongst the banks.

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

Amount of cash flow will be $2328

So option (B) will be the correct answer

Explanation:

We have given total merchandise = $4000

And return merchandise = $1600

Here \frac{3}{10} means if Sheridan Company makes the payment within 10 days then he will get discount of 3 % as in the question he makes the payment within 10 days so he will will get 3 % discount

Now amount of cash received = total merchandise - return merchandise

= $4000 - $1600 = $2400

Now discount is 3 %

So after discount amount received =2400-2400\times 0.03=2400-72=$2328

So option (B) will be the correct answer
