Answer:
1 and a half months worth of depreciation
Explanation:
The advantage of starting to depreciate an asset purchased on December is that next year you will be able to depreciate it for a full year under MACRS.  Generally, when you purchase an asset, you have to use the half year convention and your depreciation expense for the first year will be low compared to the second year. But if you start depreciating your asset in the current year, even if you purchased it on December and the depreciation expense is not that significant, the next year you will be able to depreciate it at the second year rate.

The correct answer is letter "A", "B", and "D": the availability of inputs; the flexibility of the production process; time needed to adjust to changes in price.
Explanation:
Price elasticity of supply reflects the changes in supply after a change in prices. The price elasticity of supply is calculated dividing the percentage in the change of quantity supplied by the percentage in the change of price. If the result is equal or greater than one (1) the supply of that good is elastic. If the result is lower than one (1), then the supply is inelastic.
Three main factors determine the price elasticity of supply which are <em>the amount of inventory or raw material in the industry, the capacity to increase or decrease the production, </em>and <em>the time needed to produce the good to be offered based on the price fluctuations.</em>
