Answer:
Price Skimming
Explanation:
Price Skimming is a strategy used whereby a producer initially charges the highest price that consumers would be willing and able to pay. As demand starts to fall from the high consumer segments, the price is lowered to tap into a new group of consumers.
In this case, the initial price charged was $300 and gradually reduced to $199 to capture those individuals who could not afford (or were not willing and able to pay) such a high price for an iPod.
Answer:
A) Shering's operating activities reported a $490,000 pretax profit, and since their tax rate is 40%, their taxes = $490,000 x 40% = $196,000
B) Shering only has to include 30% of the dividends received from Tank as taxable income = $20,000 x 30% = $6,000, plus the $20,000 from bonds form Zig = $26,000
Shering will owe $26,000 x 40% = $10,400 in taxes, and its after tax income = $40,000 - $10,400 = $29,600

Answer:
A). The price of gasoline increased in coastal cities since gasoline was harder to find.
Explanation:
As per the principles of demand and supply, a decrease in supply while demand remains constant will cause the price to increase. In Georgia, the supply of gasoline was interrupted by the storm's effect. There was little gasoline coming in, leading to a shortage. After Electricity went off, gasoline demand must have gone high as people needed fuel for generators.
Gasoline has no close substitutes, especially when used as fuel for cars and generators. A shortage results in the scramble for the little available products. Sellers hike prices to maximize profits, and buyers are willing to pay more to get the scarce gasoline, thereby increasing its prices.
