Answer:

The correct answer is option d.

Explanation:

The firms are expected to maximize profits, the laborers are expected to accept the best offer and the rational consumer is expected to choose the bundle of good that maximizes utility.

Firms will produce the output level where their profits are maximized. The consumer will consume at the level where their total utility is maximized and the laborer will accept the best offer to maximize his benefit.

Answer: Option (d) is correct.

Explanation:

Correct option: Profit; offer; utility.

All the economists expect that a firm's first priority is to maximize the profit and the labors are well versed with all the offers. So, they accept the best offer, which gives them higher wages.

Consumer chooses the combination of goods which gives the higher utility. They wants to maximize their total utility.

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

The profit maximizing output level declines by 2.5 units and the price rises by $100.

Explanation:

In a monopoly market the inverse demand curve is given as,

P = 1,200 - 40Q

The marginal cost of production of the last unit is $200.

The total revenue is

= Price\times Quantity

= 1,200Q - 40Q^{2}

The marginal revenue of the last unit is

= \frac{d}{dx} TR

= 1,200 - 80Q

At equilibrium the marginal revenue is equal to marginal price,

MR = MC

1,200 - 80Q = 200

80Q = 1,000

Q = 12.5

Putting the value of Q in the inverse demand function,

P = 1,200 - 40\times 12.5

P = $700

Now, if the marginal cost rises to $400,

At equilibrium the marginal revenue is equal to marginal price,

MR = MC

1,200 - 80Q = 400

80Q = 800

Q = 10

Putting the value of Q in the inverse demand function,

P = 1,200 - 40\times 10

P = $800

               common stock                156,000 credit

               additional paid-in            421,600 credit

              additional paid-in                 8,424,000 credit

--issued stock dividends--

A 2-for-1 stock split NO ENTRY

Explanation:

<u>Stock dividends of 5%</u>

Shares outstanding 312,000 x 5% x $37 market price

15,600 new shares x $ 37 per share = $ 577,200

First we declare the dividend payable, then we write-off the payable and increase equity.

Common stock for the face value and additional paid-in for the difference:

15,600 x 10 = 156,000

577,200 - 156,000 = 421,600

<u>Stock Dividends of 100%</u>

312,000 x 100% x 37 = 11,544,000

same entries as before but, with difference number

face value 312,000 x 10 = 3,120,000

additional paid-in 8,424,000

<u>A 2-for-1 stock split</u>

No entry is required as the company will have double shares but with halft the value each. It will not effect the total market capitalization.
