Answer:
These are the answer choices for the question:
Students do not have good nutritional information.
Soda purchases represent a large fraction of students' budgets.
There are few other places to purchase soda on campus.
The price elasticity of demand for soda is equal to 1.
And this is the correct answer choice:
There are few other places to purchase soda on campus.
Explanation:
If vending machines raise the price of soda by two, by the still sell almost the same amount, this means that they have a monopoly over the selling of soda in campus, and that students continue to buy there because they do not have any other feasible alternatives.
This is the problem with monopolies: they can charge very high prices and still make a profit because they will always have demand, but this very act makes consumers worse off, and reduces general social welfare.

Answer: credit to Additional Paid -in Capital on Preferred Stock for $28,200
Explanation:
The journal entry will be:
Debit: Cash = $500 × 83 = $41500

Credit: Additional paid in capital on preferred stock = $28200
Credit: Paid in capital - Common stock warrants = $8300
Note that Additional paid in capital on preferred stock was calculated as:
Amount allocated to preferred stock = (64/64+16) × 41500 = 33200
Less: Preferred stock face value = $500 × $10 = $5000
Additional paid in capital on preferred stock = $28200

Explanation:
The Homestead strike was a combination of both a company lockout (the company didn't allow workers to work) and a union strike (where the workers did't want to work). It was a power struggle between one of the darkest and sinister monopolists of the 19th century, Carnegie Steel (led by Andrew Carnegie) and the most powerful workers' union in America, the Amalgamated Association of Iron and Steel Workers.
In 1889 the union won, but Carnegie wanted revenge, so in 1892, he demanded harsher conditions after the initial contract was over and when the union said no, a lockout started. It was bloody and messy, with 16 dead. Carnegie's private army of 300 guards faced 10,000 strikers and things turned ugly soon. The Pinkertons (Carnegie's troops) were "defeated" but too many lives were lost.
Since Carnegie's little was defeated, he asked a bigger fish to help him and the governor sent 8,000 soldiers to arrest any union striker that opposed Carnegie. Finally, Carnegie's millions and corrupt politicians won, and the workers were forced to accept lower wages and more working hours. Those who rejected the forced deal were sent to prison.
