Answer:
<h2>In the case of the salt,the salt buyers would bear most of the tax burden and for caviar,the sellers would bear most of the tax burden.Hence,the correct answer is option b. or buyers of salt and the sellers of caviar.</h2><h2 />
Explanation:
In the case of salt,the supply is more elastic than the demand which implies that the salt sellers are relatively more responsive to salt price change in the market.Therefore,if any tax is imposed on them,it would basically translate into higher production cost for the sellers and due to price elasticity of supply,the sellers would pass the tax to the salt consumers who are comparatively less price sensitive.Now,since the consumer demand for salt is inelastic and the consumers are relatively price insensitive,the consumers won't perhaps mind paying a higher market price for salt including the extra tax.Hence,in this instance,the tax burden would fall on the salt buyers or consumers.
On the other hand,based on the same line of argument,the tax burden would fall on the sellers of caviars as the price elasticity of caviar supply is less than that of the caviar demand.In this case,the caviar sellers are less sensitive about changes in market price of caviars and thus,won't mind paying a relatively higher production cost/expense which is inclusive of the tax burden.Due to higher price elasticity of demand or price responsiveness,the cavier consumers would be reluctant to bear the tax burden and pass it onto the sellers.

Answer:
$315,600
Explanation:
Ownership = 40%
Investment = $182,000
Share of dividends = 40%*21,000 =8400
Share of income = 40%*75000 = 30000
Increase in share price = $21-$13= $8

Investment $182,000
Dividend received $8400
Income received $30,000
Increase in share price $112,000
324,000 315,600
Home loan amount = $165,000
Estimated closing costs = $6,187.50
% of estimated closing cost = ?
$165,000 * x% = $6,187.50
x% = $6,187.50 ÷ $165,000
x% = 0.0375
x = 0.0375 x 100 = 3.75
Therefore, estimated closing costs = 3.75% of loan amount = 3.75% of $165,000
Actual closing costs = 3.5% of loan amount = 3.5% of $165,000 = $5775
Difference in estimated and actual closing cost percent = 3.75% - 3.5% = 0.25%
The closing costs were lower than the estimate by 0.25%
Answer:
16 guests
Explanation:
If each guest is getting 1/8 of a pie, it means one pie is being divided into eight parts. One part is 1/8. One pie will be served to eight guests.
Two pies will be sufficient for 2x 8 = 16 guests.
