I believe the correct answer would be option A. The government regulate natural monopolies by ensuring and overseeing one supplier. A natural monopoly would happen when a largest manufacturer of a certain industry would have a very big gap as compared to other competitors. These industries are being regulated so as to minimize monopolization and to maintain the competitive equality between industries. Monopolies are mainly being governed by antitrust laws on a national level and on an international level. The ways that the government is regulating are establishing average cost pricing, price ceiling, Rate of return regulations and taxation laws.
Answer:
b. If the employer accepts Turner's counteroffer, Turner will recognize as gross income $55,000 per month [($480,000 + $180,000)/12].
Explanation:
Given that
Turner annual salary = $600,000
Counteroffer to received a monthly salary = $40,000 or $480,000 annually
And, $180,000 bonus in 5 years at the age of 65
So the benefit he will be getting would be after accepting the counter offer is
= ($480,000 + $180,000) ÷ 12 months
= $660,000 ÷ 12 months
= $55,000
Answer: c. $94,240
Explanation:
On December 31, 2005, one payment has already been made which would mean that only 7 payments are left. As the first of these remaining 7 will be paid the year after, this is an ordinary annuity.
Note payable value = Present value of seven $20,000 payments
= 20,000 * Present value of ordinary annuity of 1 at 11% for 7 years.
= 20,000 * 4.712
= $94,240
The formula is
I=prt
I interest due ?
P principle 3500
R interest rate 0.05
T time 1 year
I=3,500×0.05×1
I=175
