Answer:
Answer explained below
Explanation:
decrease in consumer surplus = 0.5(initial number of bottles - final number)*(final price-initial price) + (final price-initial price)*(final number)
where initial number of bottles = 25
final number of bottles = 15
initial price = $390
final price = $390
substituting these values, we have
- decrease in consumer surplus = 0.5(25-15)(450-390) + (450-390)15 = 1200
Consumer surplus decreases by 1200
- Consumers will buy the good as long as marginal benefit is greater than or equal price.
Thus quantity demanded will be 2 from the table
Consumer surplus = 240- market price = 240 -220= 20
Consumers total benefit = 220*quantity demanded = 220*2= 440
Answer: Rarely if ever
Explanation:
In an economy resources are limited while human wants are unlimited. So resources must be used in a way that maximum consumer wants can be met efficiently. In an economy when resources are allocated efficiently it is rarely possible to make some else better off without making someone else worse off. That is it is rarely possible to increase performance of some without sacrificing on some other dimension.
Answer: B. Maintaining a steady dividend is a key goal of most dividend-paying companies.
Explanation:
Companies that pay dividends prefer in general, to maintain a steady dividend overtime. This does not necessarily mean that they will pay the same amount of dividend but rather that they will pay out dividends as within a certain percentage range of the net income.
Companies do not prefer to cut dividends so as not to send the wrong message so A is wrong. Share repurchases reduces agency costs so C is wrong. Short term fluctuations in cash flow are not the key favor in determining dividend policy as the company might still pay out the same regardless so this is wrong as well. Option B is the best answer.
