Answer:

False

Explanation:

The competitive market works completely on the force of demand and supply. In this market there is no other restrictions or perks from any third party.

With this the prices of any commodity depends upon the free flow of market.

When the government imposes any restriction on price ceiling, in the competitive market then the shortage of goods arise, as because no individual supplier generally, gets ready to supply the goods at such binding price, which generally, leads to inflation, which is not practical as government has binding price ceiling.

Thus, the statement is false.

irakobra [83]

Answer: B. 20.00%

Explanation:

Unemployment rate does not include those who have given up on finding a job.

Unemployment rate = Unemployed people / Labor force

Unemployed people:

= Original unemployed + half the new graduates

= 1,000 + (1,000 / 2)

= 1,500 people

Labor force:

= Unemployed + employed people

= 1,500 + 6,000

= 7,500 people

Unemployment rate:

= 1,500 / 7,500

= 20%

timama [110]

Answer:

c) a firm does not have sufficient time to change the level of use some of its inputs.

Explanation:

The definition of short-run in economics is not a term to be used for a specific certain period of time but it means that the period of time is too short that the firms cannot change the level they are using of some of their inputs or costs. It means they do have fixed costs they cannot change. For example, all machinery installed, a yearly rent paid, electricity or others that the firm cannot change unless there is sufficient time. In a short period of time, it will have those costs anyway. The firm cannot change the level of that input. And it is short run of at least one input. It may be many. But it is not necessary to have all inputs unchanged to consider that period of time as short-run.

However, firms can change level of inputs if they have more time. That is cost the long run. All costs are variable costs when we are in long run.

On December 31, 2019, Irey Co. has $3,000,000 of short-term notes payable due on February 14, 2020. On February 8, 2020, Irey bo
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

$1,800,000

Explanation:

Given short term notes payable = $3,000,000

Total amount used to liquidate short term notes = $2,200,000

Balance = $3,000,000 - $2,200,000 = $800,000

The additional $1,200,000 which is borrowed from Country Bank will not increase the short term notes payable because it's a long term credit

The additional $1,000,000 cash used will now be added to the balance amount

Amount to be reported as current liabilities = $1,000,000 + $800,000

= $1,800,000

Therefore the amount of the short-term notes payable that should be reported as current liabilities on the December 31, 2019 balance sheet which is issued on March 5, 2020 is $1,800,000
