Answer:Governments intervene in markets to address inefficiency. In an optimally efficient market, resources are perfectly allocated to those that need them in the amounts they need. In inefficient markets that is not the case; some may have too much of a resource while others do not have enough. Inefficiency can take many different forms. The government tries to combat these inequities through regulation, taxation, and subsidies. Most governments have any combination of four different objectives when they intervene in the market.

Maximizing Social Welfare

In an unregulated inefficient market, cartels and other types of organizations can wield monopolistic power, raising entry costs and limiting the development of infrastructure. Without regulation, businesses can produce negative externalities without consequence. This all leads to diminished resources, stifled innovation, and minimized trade and its corresponding benefits. Government intervention through regulation can directly address these issues.

Another example of intervention to promote social welfare involves public goods. Certain depletable goods, like public parks, aren’t owned by an individual. This means that no price is assigned to the use of that good and everyone can use it. As a result, it is very easy for these assets to be depleted. Governments intervene to ensure those resources are not depleted.

Macro-Economic Factors

Governments also intervene to minimize the damage caused by naturally occurring economic events. Recessions and inflation are part of the natural business cycle but can have a devastating effect on citizens. In these cases, governments intervene through subsidies and manipulation of the money supply to minimize the harsh impact of economic forces on its constituents.

Socio-Economic Factors

Governments may also intervene in markets to promote general economic fairness. Government often try, through taxation and welfare programs, to reallocate financial resources from the wealthy to those that are most in need. Other examples of market intervention for socio-economic reasons include employment laws to protect certain segments of the population and the regulation of the manufacture of certain products to ensure the health and well-being of consumers.

marta [7]

The correct answer is D

Explanation:

Disparate treatment is the treatment which differing conduct or performed toward the individuals, where the differences are grounded on the individual age, colour, national origin, race, disability or religion status.

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

Firm's 2019 operating cash flow, or OCF

Cash Flow to Creditors

Cash Flow to Creditors = Interest Expenses Paid – Net Increase in Long term debt

= Interest Expenses Paid – [Long term debt at the end – Long term Debt at the Beginning]

= $165,000 – [$5,250,000 - $5,000,000]

= $165,000 - $250,000

= -$85,000

Cash Flow to Stockholders

Cash Flow to Stockholders = Dividend Paid – Net New Equity

= Dividend Paid – [(Common stock at the end + Additional paid-in surplus account at the end) - (Common stock at the beginning + Additional paid-in surplus account at the beginning)

= $410,000 – [($550,000 + $4,800,000) – ($510,000 + $4,6000,000)]

= $410,000 – [$5,350,000 - $5,110,000]

= $410,000 - $240,000

= $170,000

Cash Flow from assets

Cash Flow from assets = Cash Flow to Creditors + Cash Flow to Stockholders

= -$85,000 + $170,000

= $85,000

Operating Cash Flow

Operating Cash Flow using the Cash Flow from assets Equation

We know, Cash flow from assets = Operating Cash flows – Change in Net Working capital – Net Capital Spending

$85,000 = Operating cash flow – (-$69,000) - $1,370,000

Operating cash flow = $85,000 - $69,000 + $13,70,000

Operating cash flow = $1,386,000

“Therefore, the firm's 2019 operating cash flow, or OCF will be $1,386,000”

A direct incentive refers to <em>a type of incentive that is given in order to cause an action to occur. </em>

A direct incentive is generally tangible to the person who is targeted by it. In contrast, its opposite, an indirect incentive refers to a type of incentive that a person receives indirectly by choosing to do something. It is usually less tangible than a direct incentive.
