This question is incomplete. The complete question should be:
Suppose the market for cars is unregulated. That is, car prices are free to adjust based on the forces of supply and demand.
If a shortage exists in the car market, then the current price must be ____ than the equilibrium price. For the market to reach equilibrium, you would expect ______.
Answer:
If a shortage exists in the car market, then the current price must be <u>lower</u> than the equilibrium price. For the market to reach equilibrium, you would expect <u>buyers to pay higher prices.</u>
Explanation:
When demand is equal to supply in a market, the the market is said to be at equilibrium.
In a market for cars, the equilibrium price is the price at which cars are sold when demand for cars equals the supply of cars into the market.
If the price of cars in the market drops lower than the equilibrium price, <u>then there will be an increase in demand for cars. Without a corresponding increase in supply of cars, the market will experience a shortage of cars.</u>
For the market to reach equilibrium, prices will have to rise and car buyers will have to pay higher prices.
Answer:
$66,700
b. LIFO = $70800
67807.81
Explanation:
LIFO means last in first out. It means that it is the last purchased inventory that is the first to be sold.
(8130 x 8) + [(9090 - 8130) x 6) = 70800
FIFO means first in, first out. It means that it is the first purchased inventory that is the first to be sold
(3010 x 6) + [(9090 - 3010) x $8] = 66,700
Average cost = [(3010 x 6) + (8130 x 8)] /
18060
48640
b 65040
5760
This question is true, as business continue to prosper and grow. Many investors would want to invest into a stock market like a gamble or a faster way to gain more money, based on how you trust your stock market.
