Answer: Option (A) is correct.
Explanation:
Each of the buyer and seller are small when we are relating it with the whole market. so, there will be no power in the hands of a single decision maker and if a firm wants to change their prices then it will not have any influence on the market price. In a competitive market, there are large number of buyers and sellers, thus, one buyer or seller doesn't have any impact on the market price.
Answer: C. inefficiently low; inefficiently high
Explanation:
If the cotton farmers are not made to pay for the damage that their pesticides cost then they will maintain production at a relatively high level because their input costs will be relatively low. As a result of this high level of production, the price of the goods will be relatively low as well. The point at which both market equilibrium quantity and price are at in this scenario are considered inefficient because they are not taking into account, the true cost of production being the effects of the pesticides being used.
However, if they are made to pay for this negative externality that they are the cause of, it will increase their production cost and force them to reduce production to keep these costs low. As they reduce production, the market price will increase as supply is less.
Answer:
846,000 shares
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows:
Outstanding common stock = 807,000 shares
Outstanding option stock = 150,000
option price = $37
Market price of common stock = $50
So, 150,000 - (150,000 × $37 ÷ 50)
= 150,000 - 111,000
= 39,000
So, Number of shares = 807,000 + 39,000
= 846,000 shares

<span>Technically, Kyle lied to Patrick about the time at which he would punch him. However, there is no contract to prove that this was what was said on the phone (heresay). Additionally, it does not mention that there was any sort of agreement or consideration made between the two of them regarding this. And even if there was, there might be a legality issue due to the fact that punching is both assault and battery when committed on a person, so the contract may not even be enforceable.
In terms of civil torts, Kyle didn't really commit anything that is pursuable in court, but did commit battery and assault. If Patrick fell or hit his head further and was injured/killed, he would be liable for an involuntary action, of which would be manslaughter if Patrick died. He would also be able to be sued for wrongful death by Patrick's family.</span>
