Answer: Option D
Explanation: In economics, inflation means the increase in the general price level of goods in an economy and the decrease in the value of money. This process occurs over a period of time.
In a scenario of inflation the purchasing power of the consumers decreases leading to a decrease in demand. Inflation could be controlled but is unavoidable and hence every economy faces some level of inflation every time.
Hence from the above we can conclude that the correct option is D.

Explanation:
The funding required from equity is 40% of the projected capital budget of $2000,000 which is expected to be from the profit attributable to stockholders since new issue of shares is not contemplated.
In other words, dividends payable to shareholders is the net income less their counter funding of the project which is computed below:
residual dividends=net income-(equity%*capital outlay)
residual dividends=$300,000-(40%*$2000,000)
=$300,000-$800,000=$0
In essence the $300,000 is not even enough as funds expected from equity less alone paying excess as dividend

Answer:
The correct answer is option a.
Explanation:
Taxes levied on either buyers or sellers are equivalent. In both cases, the tax creates a wedge. This wedge is the difference between the price that the buyers have to pay and the price that the sellers receive.
The price that the buyers have to pay increases while the price that the sellers receive decreases. But this tax wedge does not depend on whom the tax is levied, it depends on the elasticity of demand and supply. So whether the tax is levied on buyers or sellers, the tax wedge will remain the same.
The tax burden will be shared between both buyers and sellers. So it is incorrect to say that the taxes levied on sellers and taxes levied on buyers are not equivalent.
