Answer:
D) The supply of the output from the hydroelectric power plants to increase
Explanation:
The externality here is a negative one where the hydroelectric plants has to bear the cost of pollution as the paper mills operates.
Correcting means to make the paper mills pay for the external costs of their production and compensate the power plant for the additional cost that incurred as they have to clean up the water.
As the cost of production reduces, the power plant will be more willing to supply electricity at similar prices, ie. their supply curve will shift to the right. It will intersect with the demand curve of the consumers at a point with higher quantity (and maybe lower price)
In other words, they will supply more electricity.
Answer:
The effect is an increase in the balance of assets by $87,000 and a corresponding increase in the balance of liabilities.
Explanation:
The accounting equation shows the relationship between all the elements of the balance sheet. These are the assets, liabilities and owners equity. It is shown as
Assets = Liabilities + Equity
When a company buys an asset on account, the entries required are debit assets, credit accounts payable. This means that asset increases but so does liabilities balance.
Hence asset increases to
= $624,000 + $87,000
= $711,000
Liabilities also increases to
= $262,000 + $87,000
= $349,000
Answer:
This manufacturer should have to take the option of dropping Dillard's and including Macy's and Saks Fifth Avenue.
Explanation:
When manufacturers produce, they do so for the sake of gains and profits. A larger market provides bigger profits compared to a smaller one.
This question tells us that this manufacturer has a greater number of customers looking to get there products at Neiman Marcus, Macy's, and Saks Fifth Avenue. So since these places would provide him a bigger market, so he should partner with these retail markets (Neiman Marcus, Macy's, and Saks Fifth Avenue) and drop the market with just few customers (dillards).
Answer:
2018 = $4,945.46
2019 - $4,450.91
Explanation:
sum-of- the-years'-digits depreciation expense =( number of useful lives remaining / sum of the years ) x (Cost of asset - residual value)
sum of the years = 1 +2 +3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 10 = 55
depreciation expense in 2018 = (10 / 55 ) x ( $33,600 - $6,400) = $27,200 X 0.181818 = $4,945.46
depreciation expense in 2018 = (9 / 55 ) x ( $33,600 - $6,400) = $27,200 X 0.163636 = $4,450.91
