Answer:

No, he doesn't show diminishing marginal utility. Yes, he shows increasing marginal utility for Coke.

Explanation:

The law of diminishing returns states that the marginal or addition satisfaction or utility derived from the consumption of a product increase until a pint and then starts to  decrease.

Units         Total utility       Marginal utility

1                    10                          10        

2                   25                         15                    

3                   50                         25

After 3 bottles, John does not show diminishing marginal utility as the marginal utility (as shown above) continues to increase with each additional bottle of coke consumed.

All of the following are benefits provided by monsoons in South and Southeast Asia, except __________. A. increased flooding B.
Aleonysh [2.5K]

The Correct answer is Increased Flooding which is Option A.

A flood is the accumulation of water over normally dry land. It’s caused by the overflow of inland waters (like rivers and streams) or tidal waters, or by an unusual accumulation of water from sources such as heavy rains or dam or levee breaches.

<h3><u>Why Increased Flooding is an exception and not a benefit?</u></h3>
  • Floods are the most common (and among the most deadly) natural disasters in India. They have brought destruction to every state and nearly every county, and in many areas they are getting worse. As global warming continues to exacerbate sea level rise and extreme weather.
  • This occurs when a river or stream overflows its natural banks and inundates normally dry land. Most common in late winter and early spring, river flooding can result from heavy rainfall, rapidly melting snow, or ice jams.

Increased Flooding is the only drawback of monsoons among other 3.

Following are the mentioned benefits.:-

B) The provision of needing water - there is enough amount of water.

C) Improved economy - Improvement of a greater economy.

D) Greater food Production - Monsoon helps in greater food production.

raketka [301]

Answer: a. offer them free merchandise if they place an offer

You want to invest $20,000 today to accumulate $32,000 for graduate school. If you can invest at an interest rate of 10% compoun
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

N = 5 years

Explanation:

At first we have to calculate the number of periods to determine at which part of the table we should look at.

Given,

PV = $20,000

FV = $32,000

Interest rate, i = 0.10 (10%)

Number of periods, n = ?

We know, Future value, FV = PV × (1+i)^{n}

or, $32,000 = $20,000 × (1 + 0.10)^{n}

or, 1.6 = 1.10^{n}

As the factor is 1.6, we will look at the following image which is the FV factor table to find the number of periods.

We can find it in a different way too.

log 1.6 = n log 1.10

or, n = \frac{log 1.6}{log 1.10}

or, n = 4.93 years

Therefore, n = 5 years

Gray Company, a closely held C corporation, incurs a $50,000 loss on a passive activity during the year. The company has active
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

B) False: since it is still a closely held C corporation, it cannot reduce its ordinary income through passive losses. If it hadn't been a closely held C corporation then it could have made the deductions.

Explanation:

Passive losses are losses resulting from financial activities, i.e. investments in other corporations where the investor doesn't participate in.

Passive losses cannot offset ordinary income, they must be matched against passive gains only. If passive losses exceed passive gains, they can be carried forward without limitation.

The only exception applies to C corporations that are not;

  • closely held corporations or
  • personal service corporations.

Qualifying C corporations can actually deduct passive losses from certain ordinary income.  

Closely held C Corporations are corporations where during the last 6 months, 50% or more of its stock is owned by 5 or fewer investors.
