Answer:

The answer is: D) continue flying until the lease expires and then drop the run.

Explanation:

Currently Cold Duck Airlines is losing money:

  • revenue < total costs

It only gets $1,000 in revenue per flight but spends $1,150 per flight (net loss of $150 per flight).

They should continue flying only until the lease contract expires. Usually lease contracts apply penalties if they are terminated early. We don't know the penalty amount but still it is never good to breach a contract.

Assume an economy is currently engaged in free trade but considering implementing a tariff on its main import, athletic shoes. W
UNO [17]

Answer:

Price - increase

Domestic production- increase

Import- reduces

Producer surplus- increase

Explanation:

A tariff is a form of tax on import or export.

When a tariff is imposed on a good , the price of the good increases.

As a result of the tariff , the amount of the goods imported falls as the imported good is now more expensive. The quantity produced by domestic producers increases as consumers would now start demanding for the domestic good. Tariffs are sometimes enacted to discourage importation and encourage domestic production.

As a result of the price increase, producer surplus increases. The increase in price also increases output. The producer surplus is the difference between the price of a product and the least amount the producer is willing to sell his product.

I hope my answer helps you.
