Answer:

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that before the tax, 25 million wine bottles were sold at price of $6 per bottle and that after the tax, 20 million bottles of wine are sold every month and the consumers pay $8 per bottle which include the tax and producers receive $5 per bottle.

The amount of tax on wine will be the difference between the price consumers pay after the tax and the price producers receive. This will be:

= $8 - $5

= $3 per bottle

The tax burden that falls on the consumers will be difference between price paid after tax and the price which is paid before the tax.

= $8 - $6

= $2 per bottle

The tax burden on the producers will be difference between price received before the tax and price received after the tax.

= $6 - $5

= $1 per bottle

Romashka [77]

Answer:

D) $32,624,514.

Explanation:

Installments (A) = $10,070,000

Principal due (B) = $39,169,279

Interest Payment (C) =B x 9% = $39,169,279*9%

Interest Payment (C) = $3,525,235

Principal Payment (D) = A - C

Principal Payment (D) = $10,070,000 - $3,525,235

Principal Payment (D) = $6,544,765

Total Due (E) = B - D

Total Due (E) = $39,169,279 - $6,544,765

Total Due (E) = $32,624,514

So, after the first payment was made, the note payable liability on December 31, 2016 is closest to $32,624,514

agasfer [191]

Answer:

$18,480

Explanation:

Cost of van = $51,000

Useful life = 5 years

Salvage value = $4,800

Using the straight line, Annual depreciation

= (51000 - 4800)/5

= $9,240

Using the Double-declining balance method,

Annual depreciation = 2 × 9,240

                                  = $18,480

The price of digital cameras fell because of improvements in production technology. As a result, the demand for non-digital came
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

The answer is: B) The statement is false. A decrease in the price of digital cameras would decrease the demand for non-digital cameras, but a decrease in the price of non-digital cameras would not cause the demand for non-digital cameras to decrease.

Explanation:

Suppose we are not currently living in 2019, instead we are back 12 years to 2007 (before the iPhone). Back then , digital cameras were still used by common "unprofessional" users. Digital cameras were an improvement compared to non-digital cameras, so the price of non-digital cameras were much lower than their digital counterparts.

If the price of digital cameras decreased, then the price of non-digital cameras would decrease also. For example, if luxury car companies like Mercedes Benz started selling sedan cars for $20,000, Ford and Chevrolet would be forced to lower the price of their cars since they wouldn't be able to compete with MB at the same price.

But a decrease in the price of non-digital cameras would never decrease their demand. Something else would have caused that decrease. Probably digital cameras became so cheap that everyone could afford one and since they were so much better than non-digital cameras, people simply stopped buying non-digital cameras.
