zheka24 [161]

Answer:

Gross Domestic Product

= $500

<em>GDP is the final value of goods and services. The haircut is valued at $500 so is GDP. </em>

Net National Product:

= GDP - Depreciation

= 500 - 80

= $420

National Income

= $420

<em>This is the income that a resident of the country earns and $420 is what Barry earned in net income.</em>

Personal Income

= National income - Retained earnings

= 420 - 120 - 50

= $250

Disposable Personal Income (Dollars)

= Personal income - income taxes

= 250 - 90

= $160

Suppose your friend is a music major who sings at weddings. She has no fixed or marginal costs for singing and has two types of
ehidna [41]

Answer: a. $4,000

b. $5,000

Explanation:

a. If she can sing at each wedding but decides to maximise profits, she will only sing at the weddings of those paying her $200 as it is the higher of the two payment options.

Should she sing at the $200 customer weddings, she would make;

= 20 people * $200

= $4,000

b. Price Discrimination is the charging of different types of customers different prices for the same or similar goods.

If your friend knows how to perfectly charge the two different groups the different prices that they value her at then she will be able to attend and sing at both weddings making her revenue;

= (10* $100) + (20 * $200)

= 1,000 + 4,000

= $5,000

cash     600 debit

  account receivables 600 credit

  account receivables                   1,200 credit

We reverse this by the amount paid by Acme which is 600

Then, we record receiving the cash (debit) and decreasing the account receivable (credit)

Alex

Answer:

=$ 25,500

Explanation:

cash equivalents will be petty cash + cash at bank

=$ 25,500

Marketable debt securities are short-term to bond issued by a corporation and held by another company. They are listed as a current asset if they are to be sold within one year to long term investment if they are expected to last longer. Marketable equity securities are capital instruments. They are listed as current assets if they are to be liquidated in one year or long term investment if longer.
