Answer:

summing horizontally the segments of the MC curves lying above the AVC curve for all firms.

Explanation:

In a perfect competition, there are many buyers and sellers of homogeneous products, and there is free entry and exit in the market.

This simply means that, in a perfectly competitive market, there are many buyers and sellers (price takers) of homogeneous products (standardized products with substitute) and the market is free (practically open) to all individuals or business entities that are willing to trade all their goods and services.

Generally, a perfectly competitive market is characterized by the following features;

1. Perfect information.

2. No barriers, it is typically free.

3. Equilibrium price and quantity.

4. Many buyers and sellers.

5. Homogeneous products.

The short-run supply curve for a purely competitive industry can be found by summing horizontally the segments of the marginal cost (MC) curves lying above the average variable cost (AVC) curve for all firms.

A monopolist can sell 26,000 units at a price of $30 per unit. lowering price by $1 raises the quantity demanded by 1,000 units.
Nutka1998 [239]
If he sells the shares at 30 per unit, the equation would be:
30*26000=780000

If he lowers the price to 29 per unit and ups the demand by 1k, it would be:
29*27000=783000

The resulting change would net him an additional 3000 dollars, so your answer would be B.

Mune Company recorded journal entries for the payment of $50,000 of dividends, the $32,000 increase in accounts receivable for s
nalin [4]

Answer:

Decrease of $18,000

Explanation:

As there is a payment of dividend so it would reduce the stockholder equity by $50,000

And, there is an increase in account receivable for rendering the service that means the service revenue would increased so the stockholder equity would increased by $32,000

Now the net effect would be

= -$50,000 + $32,000

= -$18,000

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

depreciation expense year 2 = $8,925

book value end of year 2 = $21,675

Explanation:

depreciable value = $39,000 - $4,000 = $35,000

total miles driven = 200,000

depreciation expense per mile driven = $35,000 / 200,000 miles = $0.175 per mile driven

depreciation expense year 1 = 48,000 x $0.175 = $8,400

book value end of year 1 = $39,000 - $8,400 = $30,600

depreciation expense year 2 = 51,000 x $0.175 = $8,925

book value end of year 2 = $30,600 - $8,925 = $21,675
