Answer:

$958

Explanation:

The amount that is excess in the initial margin account can be withdrawn. So we calculate the price increase that will result in a $2000 increase in initial margin.

The present price per unit of the commodity is 950 cents for 25,000 units

A unit increase of the price (which is in cents) will be 1/100= 0.01

Therefore an increase in price of 0.01 will lead to gain of 0.01 * 25,000= $250

Let's get price increase that will result in $2,000 gain

$250 = 1 unit price increase

$2,000 = x

x= (2000 * 1) ÷ 250= 8 units increase

Therefore the price at which $2,000 can be withdrawn is 950 + 8= 958 cents

Which of the following lists only the factors that would cause a decrease in the supply of an item? A. A fall in input prices; a
Brut [27]

Answer: d) a rise in input prices; a decrease in the number of sellers in the market; a rise in the price of a substitute in production.

Explanation:

Supply simply has to do with the amount of goods that a particular producer is willing to sell to economic agents at a particular price and at a given time.

It should be noted that rise in input prices; a decrease in the number of sellers in the market; a rise in the price of a substitute in production would cause a reduction in supply of goods and services.

This is because when the number of sellers reduce, the supply will also reduce as there are lesser people supplying the goods. Also, when the prices of input increases, it affects cost and supply reduces.

Therefore, the correct option is D.
