Answer:

the options were missing:

  • a tax of $9,000
  • a tax of $14,000
  • a tax of $15,000
  • a tax of $18,000

the answer is a tax of $18,000

Explanation:

in this case, the seller surplus = $510,000 - $485,000 = $25,000, while consumer surplus = $525,000 - $510,000 = $15,000

Taxes decrease consumer surplus, but consumers are still willing to purchase goods if the price of the goods plus the taxes is equal or less to the maximum price that they are willing to pay. But $510,000 + $18,000 = $528,000 which is higher than $525,000

Which of the following relies the most on the health of the economy?
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer: Trade Industries

Explanation:

Trade industries survive as long as people and businesses can afford to trade goods and services. If entities are unable to afford consumption for a reason such as a decline in income, the trade industries will suffer.

When the economy is not healthy, income levels of people will reduce and so trade industries will suffer as opposed to a healthy economy where entities can afford goods and services which will ensure the survival of trade industries.

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

C.  projected increasing health care costs for the aging population.

Explanation:

If the debt to GDP ration increases, it means that the country will owe more money compared to capacity of creating wealth. A common problem for several developed countries is that the proportion or retired people has increased compared to the total active labor force. This means that the number of people working or searching of jobs relative to the number of retired people has decreased. Even though retired people tend to have more accumulated wealth, their living expenses are also much higher. What makes this situation a problem is that retired people only have passive income, they do not have earned income. And generally speaking, passive income grows at a much lower rate that earned income.

This is why many developed countries started to implement immigration policies focusing on highly trained and educated applicants that can replace their native workforce.

PSYCHO15rus [73]

This discussion about organizations monitoring employee behavior can be related to ethical and unethical issues.

The ideal is for the company to have a set of well-defined policies and procedures with regard to the rights and duties of employees, as long as the policies have ethical and legal foundations, which guarantee the right to privacy and human integrity.

Therefore, the monitoring of the employee's behavior must always be related to their functions, and to the fulfillment of internal policies.
