1. The market price that represents the total producer surplus is $140.

Statement                                                                                       True/False

2. Sam will always receive <u>less</u> producer surplus than Teresa.    False

3. When the price is $140 producer surplus is smaller than at $100.  False

4. For Beth to earn a producer surplus of exactly $60, the market price needs to be $240 ($180 + $60).

Data and Calculations:

                             Cost       Market Price             Producer Surplus

                             A            B              C             D = (B -A)     E = (C - A)

Lorenzo                $20       $100      $140             $80          $120

Naha                     $60       $100      $140            $40            $80

Sam                      $80       $100      $140            $20            $60

Teresa                $100       $100      $140              $0            $40

Andrew              $160       $100      $140           -$60           -$20

Beth                   $180       $100      $140           -$80           -$40

The producer surplus represents the excess of the market price over the price a seller is willing to sell an item.  For example, Teresa is willing to sell the smartphone at $100.  If the market price is $120, she gets a producer surplus of $20 ($120 - $100).

Thus, the market price for a used smartphone must exceed the <em>seller's willingness price</em> to produce a producer surplus.

<span>If these are the missing choices:
</span>A  :  the Securities and Exchange Commission, income principle  
<span>B  : GAAP, revenue recognition principle 
C  : GAAP, expense recognition principle 
D  : the IRS, tax principle </span><span>

My answer is: </span><span>B  : GAAP, revenue recognition principle  
</span><span>
The cash-basis is not in accordance with GAAP, and mahogany is in violation of the REVENUE RECOGNITION PRINCIPLE.

GAAP refers to Generally Accepted Accounting Principle. 

It is stated that income must be recognized when it is earned not when cash is received. Because the company is using cash-basis, they will only report income earned on July 12 when they received the money not when they earned it which is before their fiscal year ending June 30. 
They should recognized receivables from customers before closing the books for the fiscal year. </span>
