Answer:

d) result in overproduction or underproduction of a good.

Explanation:

Market failure occurs when market forces fails to allocate goods and services efficiently.

The government usually intervenes to correct market failure.

Externalities usually lead to market failure.

Positive externality is when the benefits of economic activities to third parties exceeds its cost. Research and development usually yield postive externality.

Goods that yield postive externality are usually underproduced. Government can intervene by giving subsidies and grants which encourages production.

A negative externality is when the cost of economic activities to third parties exceeds the benefit. Pollution is an example of negative externality. Goods that yield negative externality are usually overproduced. Government can intervene by taxing companies producing negative externality. This would increase the cost of production and discourage production.

Katena32 [7]

Answer: $672,000

Explanation:

Porter sold land to Simi which means that their land balance reduces. Simi's however increases by the same amount. As Porter owned all the voting stock, the sale will be accounted for at the book value.

The Consolidated balance for land in 2020 will therefore be calculated as,

= (Porter land value - Sales price) + (Simi land value + Sales price)

= (416,000 - 65,000) + (256,000 + 65,000)

= 351,000 + 321,000

= $672,000

The book value of the Consolidated land will be $672,000 in 2020.

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

The correct answer is the option B: Activity B.

Explanation:

First of all, the term <em>''bottleneck''</em> in the management area refers to the activity or process in a chain of processes that its limited capacity reduces the capacity of the chain in its whole.

Once said that, in the case presented, where there are four workers and two of them have to do two differents tasks then the activity consider the bottleneck of the process will be the one in where one person does an activity after another and that reason makes that person delates more in working. That is the case of the activity B, where Aaron has to work again after the first activity and that takes him and Betty five minutes full, while in the other case where Betty works with David they only take four minutes, so therefore that the activity B is the bottleneck of the process.
