Answer:

The firm should shut down the production.

Explanation:

The given marginal costs = $25

Fixed cost of the production = $5000

The price of producing the 50 units of meals = $10

The new price of the meal when demand goes up = $20

Since it can be seen that the price of the meal is lower than the average cost or even it is less than the marginal cost. So, when the prices are lower than average cost then a firm should shut down the production because after shutting down the production the loss will be equal to the fixed cost only.

So, the firm should shut down the production.

Under which circumstance might you receive a tax refund from the irs
Nikolay [14]
<span>You would receive a tax refund from the IRS if you paid too much in taxes versus what your net income was during the year. The taxes owed is less than what was paid to the IRS during the year. If you receive credits for what you are able to deduct from your net income, then you will be able to receive money back at the end of the year for over paying during the year.</span>

Today, you deposit $2,500 of cash in a savings account that earns 8.0% in annualized interest. One interest payment is received
Artemon [7]

Answer:

a. $173

Explanation:

The computation of the amount of interest earned in five years is shown below;

But before that following calculations need to be done

As we know that

Simple interest = Present value × rate of interest × time period

= $2,500 × 8% × 5

= $1,000

Now the future value is

Future value = Present value × (1 + rate of interest)^number of years

= $2,500 ×(1 + 8%)^5

= $2,500 × 1.4693280768

= $3,673

Now the compound interest is

Compound interest = Future value - Present value

= $3,673 - $2,500

= $1,173

Now interest on interest is

Interest on interest = Compound interest - Simple interest

= $1,173 - $1,000

= $173

Lynna [10]
Use Newton's Second Law: Fnet = ma
where Fnet = total net force, m = mass of object, and a = acceleration of object.

You are given Fnet = 26N and m = 4.0kg. Plug them into the equation and solve for a:
26 = 4.0a
a = 6.5

The answer is 6.5 m/s^2
