Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": straight line.

Explanation:

Utility represents the satisfaction a person receives from the use of a good or service. In case there is a risk-neutral decision-maker, that individual is unlikely to vary the value he or she provides to the use of products to remain in a comfort zone. However, the utility could vary according to satisfaction the good or service provides in different situations.

Thus, if plotted in a graph, <em>the value representing the horizontal axis and the utility the vertical axis, there will be a straight line departing from the horizontal axis parallel to the vertical axis.</em>

Triss [41]

Answer:

sales revenue for the period: $  143,900

operating expenses:               $   78,000

Explanation:

We solve for sales using the account recievable identity:

beginning account receivable + sales - collection = ending account receivable

12,330 + sales - 137,920 = 18,310

sales = 137,920 + 18,310 - 12,330 = 143,900

Then, for operating expenses, we have a prepaid expenses thus unexpired and therefore, not expenses under accrued accounting.

we solve like this:

beginning prepaid expenses    19,800

payment on expenses              84,990

total expenses payment          104,790

We now subtract the prepaid (unexpired) to get the amount accrued for the period:

104,790 - 26,790 = 78,000

arlik [135]

Answer:

Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

It was given that video game is a normal good. We know that there is a positive relationship between the demand for a normal good and income of the consumer, hence, if there is an increase in the income level of the consumer then as a result the demand for a normal good increases which shifts the demand curve for normal good rightwards.

Therefore, this will lead to increase both equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity in the market for video games.

Vika [28.1K]

Answer and Explanation:

a. The computation of the current price per share is shown below:

Current price per share = Value of Firm  ÷ Number of stock outstanding

where,

Value of Firm is

= $800,000 ÷ 1.13 + $1,250,000  ÷ 1.13^2

= $1,686,897.96

And, the number of outstanding shares is 35,000 shares

So, the current share price is

= $1,686,897.96 ÷ 35,000 shares  

= $48.20

c. The computation of the shares of stock sold is shown below:

No of shares of stock must be sold is

= ($910,000 - $800,000) ÷ 48.20

= $2,282.16

c. The computation of the new price per share of stock is shown below:

Current price per share = Value of Firm  ÷ Number of stock outstanding

where,

Value of Firm is

= $910,000 ÷ 1.13 +  $1,250,000 ÷ 1.13^2

= $1,784,243.09

And, the number of outstanding shares is 35,000 shares and $2,282.16

So, the current share price is

= $1,784,243.09  ÷ 35,000 shares  + $2,282.16

= $47.86
