Answer:

Price

The price in the short-run will decrease because with less marginal costs, producers would produce more goods and services which would shift the supply curve to the right. The new intersection with the demand curve will be at a lower price.

Quantity

As said above, producers would produce more goods and services which means that the quantity supplied will increase.

Profit

This is a competitive market. Each firm will earn zero profits because the drop in price will match the drop in marginal costs to ensure that firms are not making anything extra.

Suppose the economy only produces three goods: bread, laptops, and movies. Calculate the CPI of 2008, using 2004 as the base yea
arsen [322]

Answer:

Most of the question is missing, so I looked for a similar one and found the attached image.

CPI = (current year price × base year quantity) / (base year price × Base year quantity)

CPI for bread in current year = [($1.50 × 2,000) / ($1 × 2,000)] x 100 = 150

CPI for laptops in current year = [($1,500 × 100) / ($2,000 × 100)] x 100 = 75

CPI for movies in current year = [($7 × 50) / ($5 × 50)] x 100 = 140

CPI for current year = (CPI for bread x weight of bread) + (CPI of laptops x weight of laptops) + (CPI of movies x weight of movies) = (150 x $2,250/$227,530) + (75 x$225,000/$227,530) + (140 x $280/$227,530) = 1.48 + 74.17 + 0.17 =75.82

Presented below is information related to Splish Company at December 31, 2020, the end of its first year of operations.
elena-s [515]

Answer:

a. $131,880

b. $167,310

c. $156,050

d. $151,390

Explanation:

(a) Income from operations

Income from Operations is Income resulting from Primary Trading Activities of the Company.

Income from Operations = Gross Profit + Operating Income - Operating Expenses

where,

Gross Profit = Sales - Cost of Goods Sold

                    = $334,910 - $149,030

                    = $185,880

thus,

Income from Operations = $185,880 - $54,000 = $131,880

(b) Net income

Income resulting from Primary and Secondary Trading Activities of the the Company.

Net income = Income from Operations + Non Operating Income - Non Operating Expenses

                   = $131,880 + $32,710 + $9,080 - $6,360

                   = $167,310

(c) Comprehensive income

Income from both Continuing and Non - Continuing Activities.

Comprehensive income = Net income + Non - Continuing Activities

                                         = $167,310 - $11,260

                                         = $156,050

(d) Retained earnings balance at December 31, 2020

The Income remaining after distributions to shareholders have been made.

Retained earnings = Comprehensive income  - Dividends

                               = $156,050 - $4,660

                               = $151,390

Real property taxes are often assessed on the value of the property at the beginning of the year. when property is sold in the m
sergejj [24]

When property is sold in the middle of year, both the buyer and seller can deduct their pro rated portion of the property tax.

The property taxes are based on the assessed value of the property. So when the property tax is pro rated at the time of the transfer, both the buyer and seller can deduct their pro rated portion of the property tax.

Buyer and seller prorations are often applied during real estate closing transactions to divide the cost of expenses like property taxes. Thus, the buyer gets a deduction for the prorated amount of property tax due after closing, and the seller gets the same deduction for the taxes.

Hence, both the buyer and seller receives the deduction for the real property tax.
