Consumer surplus is A. the difference between the highest price a consumer is willing to pay and the price the consumer actually

ss7ja [257]

Answer is A

Explanation: Consumer surplus actually happens when a customer is willing and ready to pay for a particular product than its current market price. It is a measure of the additional benefits a consumer gets after paying for a product even though they are willing to pay more.

For example: Let's assume you want to get a IPhone 8 plus and you value it at $800 dollars, which you are ready to pay, but realise it is sold at $700. When you buy it at $700, the customer surplus is $100, that is a difference between how much you were willing to pay and the price you eventually got it.

Consumer Surplus changes as the equilibrium price of a good rises or falls. If the price of a good rises, the consumer surplus decreases but when the price of the good falls, the consumer surplus increases.

Answer:

After the adjusting entry is made, Allowance for Doubtful Accounts balance is a credit balance of $22,290

Explanation:

Arundel Company uses aging to estimate uncollectibles.

Estimated uncollectibles = $250,000 x ( 1 - 99.5%) + $70,000 x (1 - 91%) + $30,000 x (1 - 73%) + $8,000 x (1 - 17%) = $1250 + $6,300 + $8,100 + $6,640 = $22,290

The current unadjusted Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts balance is a debit balance of $2,000.

Bad debt Expense = $22,290 + $2,000 = $24,290

The adjusting entry:

Debit Bad debt Expense $24,290

Credit Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $24,290

After the adjusting entry is made, Allowance for Doubtful Accounts balance is a credit balance of $22,290

deff fn [24]

Answer:

The answer is: 3) Printed media

Explanation:

This is already happening, cell phones and tablets have already replaced digital cameras, Netflix is replacing cable TV and sooner than later cell phones and tablets will replace printed media completely.

Ask yourself, when was the last time you bought a newspaper? I haven´t bought a newspaper in years but I can also guarantee that I read more news outlets today that ever before. I can read the New York Times, The Washington Post, Sports Illustrated, etc. all on my cellphone. Using my phone is cheaper and faster (and also more ecological) than buying a printed version. In a few years probably no newspaper will have a printed edition, not even magazines will be printed anymore.
