Answer: Congress gives too many tax breaks to corporations.
Explanation:
Normative statements are said to be statement of opinion and not fact.
Option D is therefore a normative statement because it is the opinion of the speaker that congress gives too many tax breaks because from a neutral standpoint, it cannot be said with certainty the number of tax breaks that will be considered too much.
The other options are statements of fact.
Answer: Most economist believe that prices are flexible in the long run but many are sticky in the short run.
Explanation:
Prices are sticky in the short run because producers and buyers take time to adapt to new situations. If there is a shortage of butter, lets say, the economic theory says that the prices will rise because there is less butter ( ceteris paribus = all the other factors remain constant). Actually, buyers and suppliers need time to adapt to the new situation. However, in the long run buyers and suppliers have time to adapt to new situations so prices become more flexible.
Answer:
operation cash flow ( OCF ) is $98800
Explanation:
given data
number of units = 3800 units
variable cost = $185 per unit
fixed costs = $364,000
depreciation expense = $104,000
sales price = $305 per unit
tax rate = 35 %
fix cost = $360,000
to find out
what is the OCF given this analysis
solution
we know operation cash flow ( OCF ) is express as
OCF = [ { selling - variable cost ) × no of units } - fixed cost ] × [ tax rate ] + [ deprecation × tax rate ] ..............................1
put here all these value
OCF = [ { 305 - 185 ) × 3800 } - 360000 ] × [ 35% of income before tax ] + [ 104,000 × 0.35 ]
OCF = 96000 - 0.35×96000 + 36400
OCF = 62400 + 36400
OCF = $98800
Answer:
c. 2.71, and supply is elastic.
Explanation:
The formula to compute the price elasticity of supply is shown below:
Price elasticity of supply = (Percentage change in quantity supplied ÷ percentage change in price)
where,
Change in quantity supplied is
= Q2 - Q1
= 100 t-shirts - 75 t-shirts
= 25 t-shirts
And, an average of quantity supplied is
= (100 + 75) ÷ 2
= 87.5
Change in price is
= P2 - P1
= $20 - $18
= $2
And, the average of price is
= ($20 + $18) ÷ 2
= 19
So, after solving this, the price elasticity of supply is 2.71
