Answer:

c. there will be a surplus of candy bars.

Explanation:

A price ceiling is when the government or an agency of the government sets the maximum price for a good or service.

If a price ceiling is effective, the price ceiling is set below equilibrium price.

If price is set below equilibrium price, the quantity supplied would fall and this would lead to an excess of demand over supply. Also, scarcity of the product for which a price ceiling has been set would occur.

A black market would occur. There would be a drop in the quality of product as sellers would be trying to maximise profits.

aniked [119]

Answer:

Purchasing 70,000 x 1/3 = $23,333 DISTRICT 1

Purchasing 70,000 x 2/3 = $46,667 DISTRICT 2

Payroll 80,000 x1/3 = $26,667 DISTRICT 1

Payroll 80,000 x 2/3 = $53,333 DISTRICT 2

Explanation:

Sales 300,000 + 600,000 = 900,000

District 1 300,000/900,000 = 1/3

District 2 600,000/900,000 = 2/3

Purchasing 70,000 x 1/3 = 23,333

Purchasing 70,000 x 2/3 = 46,667

Payroll 80,000 x1/3 = 26,667

Payroll 80,000 x 2/3 = 53,333

koban [17]

Answer:

$182,083

Explanation:

The computation of the total assets by considering the total assets turnover is shown below:

Total assets turnover = Sales ÷ total assets

2.4 = $415,000 ÷ total assets

So, the total assets equal to

= $415,000 ÷ 2.4

= $172,917

So, the assets is reduced by

= Year-end total assets - calculated assets

= $355,000 - $172,917

= $182,083
