Answer:

Current Ratio - Transaction 1 = 1.6666  rounded off to 1.67

Current Ratio - Transaction 2 = 1.6388  rounded off to 1.64

Explanation:

The current ratio is a measure of liquidity which measures the amount of current assets a business has to pay off each $1 of current liability. It is calculated as follows,

Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities

We know the initial current ratio and current assets. The initial current liabilities will be,

1.8 = 54000 / Current Liabilities

Current Liabilities = 54000 / 1.8

Current Liabilities = $30000

Transaction 1

The result of transaction 1 will be that the current assets will increase by $6000 as inventory increases and the current liabilities will also increase by $6000 as accounts payable are increasing. The new current ratio will be,

Current Ratio - Transaction 1 = (54000 + 6000)  /  (30000 + 6000)

Current Ratio - Transaction 1 = 1.6666 rounded off to 1.67

Transaction 2

The result of transaction 2 will be that the current assets will decrease by $1000 as payment for truck which is a fixed asset is made partly by cash and the current liabilities will not increase as the note signed for the remaining payment of the truck is due after 2 years thus it is a non current liability. The new current ratio will be,

Current Ratio - Transaction 2 = (54000 + 6000 -1000)  /  (30000 + 6000)

Current Ratio - Transaction 2 = 1.6388  rounded off to 1.64

The MU/P ratio for good X is greater than the MU/P ratio for good Y. To achieve consumer equilibrium, the consumer reallocates d
uysha [10]

Answer:

Falls:rises.

Explanation:

The MU/P (Marginal Utility/Price) ratio for good X is greater than the MU/P (Marginal Utility/Price) ratio for good Y. To achieve consumer equilibrium, the consumer reallocates dollars from the purchase of good Y to the purchase of good X. If the law of diminishing marginal utility holds, the marginal utility of good X falls and the marginal utility of good Y rises.

The law of diminishing marginal utility states that as the unit of a good or service consumed by an individual increases, the additional satisfaction he or she derives from consuming additional units would start decreasing or diminishing as the units of good or service consumed increases.

Also, the marginal utility of goods and services is the additional satisfaction that a consumer derives from consuming or buying an additional unit of a good or service.

Hence, the marginal utility of good X falls and the marginal utility of good Y rises because the consumer no longer derive satisfaction or benefits (utility) from the consumption of good X while he would switch to good Y for satisfaction.

In the long run equilibrium, a monopolistic competitor will produce to the point at which A) actual average total costs are at t
Artemon [7]

Monopolistic competition is the economic market model with many sellers selling similar, but not identical, products. The demand curve of monopolistic competition is elastic because although the firms are selling differentiated products, many are still close substitutes, so if one firm raises its price too high, many of its customers will switch to products made by other firms. This elasticity of demand makes it similar to pure competition where elasticity is perfect. Demand is not perfectly elastic because a monopolistic competitor has fewer rivals then would be the case for perfect competition, and because the products are differentiated to some degree, so they are not perfect substitutes.

Monopolistic competition has a downward sloping demand curve. Thus, just as for a pure monopoly, its marginal revenue will always be less than the market price, because it can only increase demand by lowering prices, but by doing so, it must lower the prices of all units of its product. Hence, monopolistically competitive firms maximize profits or minimize losses by producing that quantity where marginal revenue equals marginal cost, both over the short run and the long run.

Price level stability necessitates intelligent management or regulation for money supply and interest rates.

Money supply alludes to how much money or cash coursing in an economy. The money supply is the aggregate sum of money present in an economy at a specific level.

The record of the absolute money supply is kept by the Central Bank of the country.

Interest rates is the sum a bank charges a borrower and is a level of the head - the sum credited. The financial cost on a credit it's regularly noted on a yearly premise known as the Annual Percentage Rate (APR).
