Explanation:
First, let's understand what are the stages of a supply chain, they are:

Explanation:
Price Discrimination is a pricing strategy where suppliers/producers or sellers sell a good to different people at different prices depending largely on their preference and/or capacity to pay for the commodity i.e, if you want it more, you are charged more.
1. Johnny did not like to play Hopscotch, so offering Suzie one day of Hopscotch for two days of bug hunting is fair and no price discrimination occured as he did not offer these terms to someone else who's game he did not like.
2. Sam knew that Johnny really liked playing Slaps so he leveraged on that and offered him more expensive terms so to speak than he did to Bill even though he liked playing the both games equally. This means that he charged Johnny more than Bill simply because Johnny liked and preferred his game alot which is Price discrimination.
Answer:
e. Debit Petty Cash $50 Credit Cash $ 50
Explanation:
The entry on October 01 is to reflect the increase in Petty Cash from $ 250 to $ 300. i.e the incremental effect is only $ 50. This is because for the regular replenishment that was done on September 30, the following entry would have been recorded:
Petty Cash - Debit $ 232
Cash - Credit $ 232
The entry for recording the petty cash expenses would be as follows;
Office Supplies expense debit $ 73
Merchandise Inventory debit $ 137
Miscellaneous expenses debit $ 22
Petty Cash credit $ 232
Answer:
a) If bribes cost $1,000 each, how much will a housing inspector make each year in bribes?
So, if the corrupt inspector approves two newly built structures each week, ti means that he is bribed twice per week. There are 52 weeks in a year, so he gets a total of 104 bribes (52 x 2). If each bribe costs $1,000, then he makes a total of: $1,000 x 104 = $104,000 in bribes per year.
c) Corrupt officials may have an incentive to reduce the provision of government services to help line their own pockets.
This statement is true. Corrupt officials will want to have private companies they can obtain bribes from provide government services. It increases the probability of them making money from bribes.
d) What if reducing the number of inspectors from 20 to 10 only increased the equilibrium bribe from $1,000 to $1,500?
Reducing the number of inspectors in hafl means that each inspector now gets twice the bribes. Because the equilibrium price did not double as did the quantity of bribes, each inspector will make less money than expected, but they will still the incentive to collect all the four bribes per week.
