Answer:

B. 2,600 to 2,000.

Explanation:

tax revenue = units x tax rate

units = tax revenue / tax rate = 6,000/3 = 2,000

2,000 will be the quantity after taxes.

6000 goverment revenue - 3900 consumer surplus - 3000 producer surplus

900 deathweight loss

(tax x ↓unit)/2 = deathweight loss

(3 x ↓unit)/2 = 900

(3 x ↓unit) = 900 *2

↓unit = 1800/3 = 600

<u>It decrease to 2000 from 2600</u>

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

$45,600 and yes

Explanation:

The computation of the contribution to profit from the special order is shown below:

= Sales revenue - Material cost - Labor cost

where,

Sales revenue = $3,300 × 40 slabs  = $132,000

Material cost = $1,440 × 40 slabs  = $57,600

Labor cost = = $7200 × 40 slabs  = $28,800

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= $132,000 - $57,600 - $28,800

= $45,600

The material and labor cost is a variable cost and the same is taken in the computation part

So, it should accept the special order

Answer: D. supervisors gain experience in and are accountable for solving problems in their work units.

Explanation:

A chain of command is necessary in business because it diversifies authority such that decisions can be made faster.

It works by dividing employees into units which will answer to a manager. That manager will make decisions for the unit and this leads to decisions being made faster because everybody wouldn't have to go to upper management when they already have a manager.

Supervisors/ managers of these units are therefore accountable for their units and will gain experience from being so.
