Answer:

A. The crossover point in units is 9000 units

B. Alternate B or Proposal B should be chosen

Explanation:

a.

Let x be the number of units.

The profit equation for option 1 can be written as (20-11)x - 62000

The profit equation for option 2 can be written as (20-14)x - 35000

The crossover point is where both optons yield equal profit thus equation 1 = equation 2.

(20-11)x - 62000 = (20-14)x - 35000

9x - 62000 = 6x - 35000

9x - 6x = 62000 - 35000

3x = 27000

x = 27000 / 3

x = 9000 units

b.

At 8300units,

Profit from proposal A is = 9(8300) - 62000 = 12700

Profit from proposal B is = 6(8300) - 35000 = 14800

Thus option B is more profitable at this unit.

pashok25 [27]

Answer: $35,000

Explanation:

A casualty loss is simply a loss that an individual or business incurs when a property is damaged, or destroyed due to an unexpected or sudden event like fire, volcanic eruption, flood etc.

Here, Steve's casualty loss will be gotten when we compare both his adjusted basis and the fair market value and then we choose the lesser one. Since $35000 is lesser than $50000, therefore the answer will be $35000.

Suppose the price of tomatoes falls, ceteris paribus. Describe the impact the substitution effect and the real income effect wou
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

Ceteris paribus assumption: Demand curves relate the prices and quantities demanded assuming no other factors change

Explanation:

Ceteris paribus is a  Latin phrase meaning “other things being equal”. If all else is not held equal, then the laws of supply and demand will not necessarily hold.

Demand is the amount of some product a consumer is willing and able to purchase at each price.

IMPACT THE SUBSTITUTION EFFECT AND THE REAL INCOME

A substitute is a good or service that can be used in place of another good or service. A lower price for a substitute decreases demand for the other product and increases the quantity demanded for tomatoes

A change in the price of a good or service causes a movement along a specific demand curve, and it typically leads to some change in the quantity demanded, but it does not shift the demand curve.
