<u>Answer: </u>

I would estimate the amount of compensation based on the statistical data relating to the loss that the airline companies are facing since 9/11.

<u>Explanation: </u>

  • The surplus that the airline companies were earning over their operational expenses was nothing else but the profit margin that the companies were earning from the business.
  • To devise the compensation to be given to the companies, calculating the surplus that they were earning from their operations would thus prove to be an intelligent solution.

Because there isn't one single measure of inflation, the government and researchers use a variety of methods to get the most balanced picture of how prices fluctuate in the economy. Two of the most commonly used price indexes are the consumer price index (CPI) and the GDP deflator. The CPI for this year is calculated by dividing <u>the value of all goods and services produced in the economy this year </u>using <u>this year's prices</u> by the<u> value of all goods and services produced in the economy this year</u> using <u>the base year's prices</u> and multiplying by 100. However, the GDP deflator reflects only the prices of all goods and services bought by the consumers.

<u>Explanation:</u>

GDP is the gross domestic product of a country which specifies the level of growth of the country. The value of the goods and the services of the country produced by the people of the country are all reflected in the gross domestic product of the country.

Greater the rate of GDP is of a particular country, higher would be the growth of the country. It is also used as a measure of comparison of the growth rate of the country.

On July 1, 20X1, James and Short formed a partnership. James contributed cash. Short, previously a sole proprietor, contributed
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

James and Short LLC

Short's capital account on July 1, 20X1 should be recorded at the fair value of contributed property minus the mortgage liability, which the partnership assumed.

Explanation:

The fair value of contributed property is the current market value of the contributed property by Short.  It is the market value that will determine how the contributed property can be valued.  The market value assumes that the contributed property is being sold in pieces and not as a whole.  This is why the value is considered a fair basis for recognizing the capital contribution of Short into the partnership.

aev [14]

Answer:

Amount received by sellers - Costs of sellers. 

Explanation:

Producer surplus is the difference between the price of a good and the cost to sellers. It is the difference between price and the least amount sellers would be willing to sell their products.

Consumer surplus is the difference between the price at which the consumer values the good and the price of the good.

Consumer surplus = Value to buyers - Amount paid by buyers.
