Historically, common crimes (such as robbing a bank) were punished more severely than white collar crimes (like embezzlement). W

hy do you think that is? Since 2003, there has been a steady push to punish white collar crimes at least as severely as common crimes are punished. Do you feel that this is in the best interest of society? Should white collar crimes be punished more severely, less severely, or the same as comparable common crimes?

Answer:

They must be severely punished.

Explanation:

Common crimes earlier were more threat full to the society than any other act and that is the reason they were mentioned more.

Since, the new era has new crimes, and one of the kind is white collar crimes which happens when companies’ heads try to misguide people with false financial reports, adding more losses to avoid taxes and sometimes showing more profit to attract potential investors, now it has become even severe.

Whichever the case, both crimes ultimately effect society and its stakeholders, however, common crimes are more frequent than white collar crimes.

Hence, they must be severely punished because they are committing crimes under the disguise of an innocent professionals.

Ball Bearings, Inc., faces costs of production as follows:
Travka [436]

Answer:

Q        Fixed       Variable    Total    Marginal    Aver.     Aver.     Aver.

<u>           Costs        Costs         Cost    Cost           FC         VC         TC      </u>

0          100             0              100         -               -             -             -

1           100           50               150       150           100         50         150

2          100           70               170         20            50         35          85

3          100           90               190        20           33.33      30        63.33

4          100          140               240       50            25          35          60

5          100         200               300       60            20          40          60

6          100         360              460      160           16.67       60        76.67

The firm's profit in this case is <u>-$360</u>.

True or False: This was a wise decision. ⇒ <u>False</u>

Depends on the situation and which costs are avoidable if the company shuts down operations. If it produces 4 cases, the losses reduce from -$100 to -$40, but the contribution margin is positive since revenues exceed variable costs by $60. But under the current price level, the company will not be able to generate profits unless it increases its sales price or decreases its fixed costs.

Vaguely remembering his introductory economics course, the company's chief financial officer tells the CEO it is better to produce 1 case of ball bearings, because marginal revenue equals marginal cost at that quantity.

At this level of production, the firm's profit is <u>-$100</u>.

True or False: This is the best decision the firm can make. ⇒ <u>False</u>

Accounting profit is maximized at 4 cases since marginal cost ($50) = sales price ($50). At this point the total profit is -$40.

Solve the simultaneous equation <br>y+x=4<br>2y-x=5​
beks73 [17]

Answer:

<h2>Value of X = 1</h2>

<h2>Value of y = 3</h2>

Solution,

Using substitution method,

y + x = 4

Move 'x' to the left hand side and change its sign:

y = 4 - x --------> equation (i)

Now,

2y - X = 5

putting the value of y from equation (i)

2( 4 - x ) - X = 5

8 - 2x - x = 5

8 - 3x = 5

- 3x = 5 - 8

- 3x = - 3

The difference sign (-) will be cancelled in both sides

3x = 3

3x/3 = 3/3

X = 1

Value of X is 1

Now, replacing the value of X in equation (i)

y = 4 - x

= 4 - 1

= 3

Value of y is 3

Hope this helps...

Good luck on your assignment...
