Answer:
Option E Price Escalation
Explanation:
Price Escalation is when the government imposes additional taxes on the product which is exported to their country, this makes the product expensive and the customer as a result don't buys that product. Such type of increases in prices are known as price escalation.
Typically, a simple way to think of an input is anything that costs money. These can be both good and bad things. A simple example would be: if I had a machine that made candy: my inputs would be the energy required to run the machine, the person required to work the machine, and the ingredients I had to put in to make the candy. My outputs might be the candy the machine made and the happiness it gave to people who ate it. A negative output might be that it made people unhealthy.
As an internet company eBay does not have many of the typical inputs of doing business. For example, it does NOT have the cost of physical stores nor does it have the cost of depreciating inventory or any machines. For eBay, some examples of inputs would be it's people such as software engineers, marketing team, and executive staff. All overhead such as office space and the electricity to power its office space would be another example. Other examples could include the physical code behind eBay's software and money used to finance the company, and the data warehouses used to store everything.
Outputs can be thought of as the value a company creates. eBay's outputs are also somewhat atypical. eBay does not create a physical product that they then sell so that makes this a challenging question. You could argue that eBay's store or its platform is an output. All the data it produces as a company is an output and has a lot of value. Since eBay allows people across the world to open up their own store online, you could say it's creating the social good of jobs or entrepreneurship "global employment" through this action (eBay has supported this publicly as well so you could look up more about it on Google). Another output could be eBay stores created by sellers. eBay owns PayPal so if you can think of any related to PayPal you could include those as well and cite that eBay owns the company.

Answer:
A buyer's willingness to pay for a good plus the price of the good means the buyer is indifferent between buying the good and not buying it.
Surplus is the amount by which the quantity supplied of a good exceeds the quantity demanded of the good.
Producer surplus is the amount a buyer is willing to pay for a good minus the cost of producing the good.
Consumer surplus is the amount a buyer is willing to pay for a good minus the amount the buyer actually pays for it.
I just finished this quiz and the answer is "marketing"
Answer:
a. mostly cigarette buyers.
Explanation:
The law of demand states an inverse relationship between quantity demanded of a good and it's price, keeping other factors affecting demand as constant.
Price elasticity of demand refers to the degree of responsiveness of quantity demanded to a change in price.
Alcohol and cigarettes are exceptions to the law of demand since in their case, the factor of addiction presides which outweighs rational decision making.
Thus, price elasticity of demand of cigarettes is inelastic. So a marginally higher price charged for cigarettes will not reduce their consumption.
A new tax on cigarettes would raise their prices. The manufacturers, to cover such taxes and maintain the same margin as before would further raise the prices of cigarettes further.
Thus, the tax burden would be shifted to the consumers and hence majorly borne by them.
