Answer:
D) South American cocoa bean producers refuse to ship to chocolate producers in the US.
Explanation:
A nonbinding rice ceiling means that the equilibrium price is below the price ceiling, so it will have no effect in real life. In order for the price ceiling to become binding and start to negatively affect the market, the equilibrium price must increase.
The only option that would increase the equilibrium price is option D, since the shortage of a key input will probably result in an increase in the price of the key input. If the price of a key input increases, the cost of producing chocolate will increase, resulting in a leftward shift of the supply curve.
A leftward shift of the supply curve will decrease the total quantity supplied and it will increase the price of chocolate at every level of quantity demanded. This will result in an increase in the equilibrium price which might ultimately change the price ceiling from nonbinding to binding.

Answer:
<u>Depreciation expense per year</u>
Year 1 = $1200
Year 2 = $800
Year 3 = $600
Year 4 = $300
Year 5 = $100
Explanation:
To determine the depreciation expense under the units of production/activity method of charging depreciation, we will first calculate the depreciation expense per unit and then multiply it with the units of production in each year to calculate the depreciation expense for that year.
The formula for depreciation under this method is attached.
Depreciation per unit = (3000 - 0) / 30000 = $0.1 per copy
<u />
<u>Depreciation expense per year</u>
Year 1 = 0.1 * 12000 = $1200
Year 2 = 0.1 * 8000 = $800
Year 3 = 0.1 * 6000 = $600
Year 4 = 0.1 * 3000 = $300
Year 5 = 0.1 * 1000 = $100
