Answer:
a) Determine which type of cars will be sold at the efficient allocation.
All cars would be sold in a Pareto efficient allocation.
In a Pareto efficient market, resources are all allocated in the most efficient possible way. This is the reason why this is just a theoretical concept that does not necessarily apply in real life.
b) Determine which type of cars will be sold at the market equilibrium.
Since consumers are only willing to pay up to $1,620 for a used car, only medium quality and low quality cars will be sold. The price of high quality used cars is higher than the equilibrium price.
Explanation:
the most a buyer would be willing to pay for a used car is ($1,800 x 40%) + ($1,600 x 30%) + ($1,400 x 30%) = $720 + $480 + $420 = $1,620
Answer:
The boss is correct.
Explanation:
Under Sarbanes-Oxley Act, a rules-based approach to corporate governance and reporting is used. It is based on the view that companies must be
required by law (or by some other form of compulsory regulation) to comply with established principles of good corporate governance.
Except in the instances of exceptions provided in the act, company has no choice than to comply regardless of the cost implication because non-compliance is punishable under the act. Sometimes, it is called tick box approach
This is contrary to what is obtainable in a principled-based approach where allowance is given for explanation in the event of possible con-compliance.
Answer:
$288
Explanation:
Since the total property taxes for the year are $1,140, to find the property tax per month we have to divide by 12 ⇒ $1,140 / 12 = $95 per month
The seller is responsible for paying the property taxes during 3 months and 1 day, to find out the amount for that 1 day we divide the monthly tax by 30 = $3.17 per day.
the total seller's credit = ($95 x 3) + $3 = $285 + $3 = $288
*The seller's credit includes all the expenses that must be paid by the seller, while the seller's debit includes all the money that he receives.
Answer:
Net income increase - $4,890
Explanation:
The computation of the effect on net income is shown below:
= Number of pounds of inferior product × (standard price for the materials - inferior product price per pound)
= 3,000 pounds × ($13 - $11.37)
= 3,000 pounds × $1.63
= $4,890 increase
For determining the effect we took the difference of the prices and then multiply it with the number of pounds of the inferior product
