Answer:

a. We need more information to answer

Explanation:

In order to correctly answer his question we need more information. Economy is all about the margin, i.e. marginal revenue versus marginal cost. We are given the marginal revenue ($20/hr of tutoring services) but we are not given the marginal costs of tutoring. We only know that the cost of tutoring the first hour is $14, but what about the rest of the hours. Since you have 5 clients, you must be tutoring more than 1 hour per day. It is always easier to determine the marginal revenue since we determine it, while we cannot determine which costs we would like to incur.

Profits should be maximized when marginal revenue = marginal cost, but unless we know the marginal cost of tutoring the rest of the students we simply cannot answer this question.

There seems to be an error in your question. Budget deficit is when the government spending exceeds its revenue, yet your question makes no mention of expenses. However, it seems to be referring to something we call the "negative output gap", where actual output is lower than potential output. If this is the case, then the output gap is $100. (I suspect you omitted the million as no country, not even fictional, only produces $500.)

The balance sheet of a corporation reports ______. only the debts of the business and its owners only the results of the busines
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

only the results of the business' activities

Explanation:

 balance sheet is among the three main financial statements prepared by a corporation. It reports the financial positions of the business by showing the value of assets, liabilities, and the shareholder's equity at any point in time. Therefore, a balance sheet shows the net worth of the corporation.

The preparation of the balance sheet follows the accounting equation of assets equals liabilities plus shareholder equity. On one side, the balance sheet reports the assets and liabilities and equity on the other.  In other words, the balance sheets indicate how the assets of a business are financed. It does not report on the personal activities of business owners.

wolverine [178]

Answer:

C) lack of venture capital for innovative products.

Explanation:

Embryonic industries are such industries that are at the beginning stage in their life-cycle. More specifically, newly established ventures are called the embryonic industry or firm.

Options A, B, D, and E all are wrong because a new firm may not produce high qualified first products. It may not have the right complementary products, the production cost may be higher than expected, and finally, there are a few distribution points. Those lead to the slow growth of the embryonic industry.

Option C is the answer because venture capitalists like to invest in innovative products, so there should not be a lack of capital.
