Daniel is a baker who has decided to create his own brand of chain restaurants, Short and Sweet. He negotiates with three suppli

Answer:

C) The invisible hand

Explanation:

Daniel here seeking to produce and increase his welfare is "led by an invisible hand" to negotiate with his suppliers and to sell goods to his neighbors in a way that everybody is better off as a result from these transactions.

This is also a clear example to what Adam Smith was referring to the invisible hand:

"in such a manner as its produce may be of the greatest value, he intends only his own gain, and he is in this, as in many other cases, led by an invisible hand to promote an end which was no part of his intention. Nor is it always the worse for the society that it was not part of it. By pursuing his own interest he frequently promotes that of the society more effectually than when he really intends to promote it. " Adam Smith, The Wealth of Nations, Book 4, Chapter 2

Year Cash-flow     Balance

0        (218,000.00)        (218,000.00)

1        32,000.00            (186,000.00)

2        18,000.00            (168,000.00)

3        21,000.00             (147,000.00)

4         21,000.00             (126,000.00)

5        21,000.00              (105,000.00)

6        21,000.00              (84,000.00)

7        21,000.00               (63,000.00)

8       21,000.00                (42,000.00)

9        21,000.00               (21,000.00)

10        21,000.00                -    

11        21,000.00             21,000.00  

12        21,000.00            42,000.00  

By end of year 10, total inflows are exactly equal the initial investment, therefore it will take them 10 years

note payable      384,000

       Land                            325,000

       Gain on disposal         125,000

450,000 market value - 66,000 interest payable: 384,000 payment on the note principal

the entry will write-off the interest payable, decrease the note by that amount and recognize the land gain on disposal
