Answer: b) peoples' responses to financial incentives.

Explanation:

Burrell would be wrong because the most leakage in federal assistance programs comes from the way people respond to financial incentives.

Some people who have received this assistance from the Federal government have decided that it would be better to keep receiving this assistance instead of working to actually get paid.

This has led to more people seeking assistance thereby increasing the number of people needing assistance and invariably increasing the cost of these federal assistance programs.

miskamm [114]

Answer:

The answer is $2,225,000

Explanation:

Cost of acquisition is $1,775,000

Meyer company's share of net income in Gannon corporation:

60% of $1,000,000

0.6 x $1,000,000

= $600,000

Meyer company's share from cash dividend in Gannon corporation

60% of $250,000

0.6 x $250,000

= $150,000

The balance in the equity investment account at December 31, 2021 should be:

$1,775,000 + $600,000 – $150,000

= $2,225,000

Who is most likely to benefit when the Canadian dollar depreciates against the euro? A. Foreign sellers to Canadian buyers B. Ca
mariarad [96]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

When the Canadian dollar depreciates against the euro, the value of the Canadian dollar falls relative to the Euro.

For example, the exchange rate before the depreciation is 40 Canadian dollar / Euro. After the depreciation, it is 80 Canadian dollars / Euro.

Goods become more expensive for Canadian buyers of foreign goods. For example, a foreign good costs 160 Euros. Before the depreciation the good would cost (160 x 40) = 6400 Canadian dollars. After the depreciation, it would cost, 12,800 Canadian dollars.

Canadian sellers to foreign buyers don't benefit from the depreciation. Assume a local good costs 40 Canadian dollars. foreigners would pay 1 Euro for the good before depreciation. After depreciation, foreigners would pay 0.5 Euros for the good
