Answer:
First we need to first find the equilibrium quantity and price during normal times.
The equilibrium price in normal times is P=$3 and the equilibrium quantity is 55 bottles.
During the hurricane, the government will set a price ceiling of $3. We can infer from the table that the quantity supplied at P=$3 is 55 bottles while the quantity demanded during hurricane at the price of $3 per bottle is 105 bottles. Hence,
105-55= 50
During a hurricane, there would be a shortage of 50 bottles of water.
If there were no price ceiling, then the equilibrium price would be such that the quantity demanded during hurricane equals the quantity supplied. From the table we can see that the equilibrium price would in that case be P=$5 per bottle where the equilibrium quantity is 85 bottles. With the price ceiling only 55 bottles are available for trading. Now without the price ceiling 85 bottles are available.
Hence consumers would have to pay an additional $2 (=5-3) but they can now buy an additional 30 bottles [=85-55].
Without the antiprice gouging law, consumers would have to pay $2 more than the ceiling price, but they would bv able to buy 30 more bottles of water.
Answer:
a. Differential revenue = $18 per pound
Explanation:
Differential revenue refers to additional revenue per unit.
Current revenue per unit = $20 - $15.75 = $4.25 per unit on Product J
When it will be further processed to form Product D
Net proceeds to be realized from each unit of product D = $38
Net revenue = $38 - $24.30 = $13.7
Additional or differential revenue = $38 - $20 = $18 per unit
As for $20 selling price the revenue was recognized earlier now additional revenue = $38 - $20 = $18 per pound
Note: Revenue is the proceeds from sale and not the net profit.
Differential revenue = $18 per pound

Susan's veterinary expenses are deductible for adjusted gross income
because she is self-employed and at the same time her vet practice constitutes a business.
Therefore, all of her veterinary expenses are deductible for adjusted gross income.
Alexandra is said to be in a trade or business as an employee and
the unreimbursed expenses of an employee are deducted as miscellaneous itemized deductions.
Therefore, Alexandra only benefits if she itemizes her deductions while Susan will always get the full benefit of the deduction.
