Answer:

D) not able to be calculated from the information given.

Explanation:

Consumer surplus is the difference between willingness to pay of a consumer and the price actually paid for a good or service.

The price paid by Smith is $205,000 but there's no information on the willingness to pay of Smith. Therefore, the consumer surplus can't be calculated.

I hope my answer helps you.

A monopolist sells in two geographically divided markets, the East and the West. Marginal cost is constant at $50 in both market
noname [10]

Answer:

A) QE = 400, PE = 250

     QW = 325, PW = 375

b) east market has more elastic market demand

Explanation:

Given data :

Marginal cost = $50 ( both markets )

demand and marginal revenue in each market are given differently

a) Determine/find the profit-maximizing price and quantity in each market

For east market :

50 = 450 - QE

hence QE = 450 -50 = 400

since QE = 400 ( quantity for east market )

400 = 900 - 2PE

PE = 250 ( PROFIT maximizing price for east market )

For west market

50 = 700 - 2QW

Hence QW = 325

since QW = 325

325 = 700 - pw

PW = 375

B) The market in which demand is more elastic is the east market because the quantity demanded is higher and also the profit maximizing price is lower as well

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": realistic.

Explanation:

American psychologist John L. Holland (1919-2008) proposed a theory summarizing people's personalities in six (6) types: <em>Realistic, Investigative, Artistic, Social, Enterprising, </em>and <em>Conventional</em>. Realistic individuals tend to be shy, genuine, persistent, stable, confirming, and practical. They usually work as mechanics, drill press operators, assembly-line workers or farmers.

Thus, <em>in Holland's Typology of Personalities Monica would be considered as realistic.</em>

Although a business has had record sales it is having a hard time paying the bills each month. As a manager you are uncertain wh
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

Income statements and or Cash flow statements.

Explanation:

Income statement and Cash flow statements are required.

Income Statement will give us insight about our costs as we maybe recording sales but if the costs and expenses are too high we are unlikely to be making enough gross profits to be able to pay bills.

Cash flow statements are required as sales may be credit and thus reducing working capital for the company, although they may be making profits but if the debts are uncollected they are unlikely to have cash available to be able to make payments.

Hope that helps.
