Answer:
D) Original cost.
Explanation:
When the company uses the lower of cost or market method, it should assign value to its inventory by calculating the middle figure between replacement cost or net realizable value, and net realizable value - normal profit.
In this case, the market value must be either the replacement cost or the net realizable value, but both values are the highest. Since the original cost is below the market value, but above the net realizable value - normal profit, the inventory must be valued at the original cost.
Answer:
C) a reduction in the saving rate will have an ambiguous effect on (C/N)*
Explanation:
The steady state consumption refers to the difference between how capital wears out or depreciates vs total output. In order to keep a steady state consumption, the savings rate (which equals investment) must be enough to replace any worn out or completely depreciated capital.
Since the consumption rate is already higher than the steady state consumption, the effect of a decrease in the savings rate is ambiguous. Every dollar earned by a household is either spent or saved, and in order for savings to decrease, spending must increase.
But in this case, the spending level is already too high. A decrease in savings should increase consumption but the effects of the increase in the capital labor ratio and the per capita consumption are not certain.
Answer:
price increases and Ed equals -2.47
Explanation:
Elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price.
Demand is inelastic if a change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of the coefficient for inelastic demand is less than 1.
If price increases and demand is inelastic, total revenue would increase because there would-be little or no change in quantity demanded as a result of the price increase.
Demand is elastic if a small change in price has a greater effect on the quantity demanded.
The absolute value of the coefficient for elastic demand is greater than 1.
If demand is elastic and price is increased, revenue would fall because of the decease in quantity demanded.
If demand is elastic and price is deceased, revenue would rise because of the increase in Quanitity demanded as a result of the fall in price.
Demand is unit elastic if a change in price has the same proportional effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of the coefficient for unit elastic demand is one.

Answer: Alano's taxable income increases by $300,000.
Explanation:
Constructive dividends are paid to a shareholder and classified in such a way that they are not to be seen as taxable dividends.
If during auditing however, the IRS determines that it was indeed a taxable dividend, it becomes a constructive dividend.
Constructive dividends are taxable by definition so Alano's taxable income increases by the amount of dividend of $300,000.
