Answer:
d. Many firms are working together to eliminate pollution
Explanation:
Coase theorem is a private solution for the two parties who agree to reduce externalities, i.e., pollution. They negotiate in such a manner that the costs are low as one party takes over other party's polluted assets to reduce pollution. When there are more parties or firms involved to eliminate pollution, it will pose high transaction costs. Therefore, the Coase theorem will not work in that case. So, the option "D" is the correct choice.
Answer:
d. increase equity by $4,900
Explanation:
Jack Snow received $14,700 on December 1 for services to be rendered in December, January and February. It will not be recorded as income because it hasn't been earned.
Adjusting entries will be passed at the end of each month to recognise amount earned.
Since it is for 3 months, monthly amount earned = 14,700/3= $4,900
At December 31 Retained earnings will be credited for $4,900.
Retained earnings is part of owner's equity.
So equity will increase by $4,900
Answer:
Individualistic
Explanation:
Individualistic mindset focuses on the individual and gives them more emphasis than the group.
The opposite of individualism is collectivism or group mentality which emphasise the group over the individual.
To discuss the merger between the two companies, ABC company only sent one person while XYZ company sent 5 people from different departments.
ABC is most likely have a individualistic mindset and they feel one person can handle the negotiation.
On the other hand XYZ sent representatives from each department. This shows the organisation has to agree to the deal so all departments are involved.
Answer:
$2,553,191
Explanation:
The formula to compute the break even point in dollars amount is presented below:
= (Fixed cost ) ÷ (Profit volume ratio)
where,
Fixed cost = $300,000
And the profit volume ratio would be
= (Contribution margin) ÷ (Sales) × 100
We assume the sales be 100%
So, the variable cost is
= 88.25%
And, the contribution margin is
= 100 - 88.25
= 11.75%
So, the break even sales would be
= $300,000 ÷ 11.75%
= $2,553,191
20% down will be $50,000 so the balance will be $200,000 to take out a mortgage for. The higher the down payment the lower the mortgage required and lower payments would ensue also. Also, once one has a mortgage it ie wise to pay it by the week to reduce the interest. Over time this practice makes a difference.
