Business
1 answer:
kap26 [50]2 years ago
7 0

The reason why public goods are provided by the government is C. Public goods are goods and services that are non-excludable and non-rivalrous; therefore, it is not profitable or in the best interest of private businesses to provide these goods.

A public good simply means the good that is beneficial to everyone in the society. It's non-excludable and non-rivalrous. e.g electricity, water, sewage disposal, etc.

Public goods are goods and services that are non-excludable and non-rivalrous; therefore, it is not profitable or in the best interest of private businesses to provide these goods. They're usually provided to meet the needs of the people and not for profit motive.

Wanda is faced with an ethical dilemma. She knows her supervisor, the CFO, wants to accelerate the recoding of revenue to an ear
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

Wanda is most likely to refuse.

Explanation:

The stage 4 of Kohlberg's Moral Development Model is defined as the Law and Order Orientation Stage, in which doing what is dutiful is paramount. If Wanda accepted his supervisor's demands, she would be breaking a law (the GAAP), and this act would therefore go against what the Kohlberg's model proposes. She will most likely respect the law despite the conquesequences that this might have on her personal life (for example, being fired).

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

Since the FICA tax is split equally between employers and employees, we can conclude that the incidence of this tax is also equally shared.

a. True

Explanation:

The incidence of the FICA tax refers to the extent to which an individual employee or the employing organization suffers from the imposition of the FICA tax.  In the final analysis, the incidence may not be borne by the organization but consumers of its goods and services, depending on the elasticity of demand.  Employers and employees usually split the FICA tax equally.  The FICA (Federal Insurance Contribution Act) refers to the federally mandated tax for Social Security and Medicare.

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

The Accounting Equation states that;

Assets = Liabilities + Equity

Equity as at 2016 = Assets - Liabilities

= 50 - 13

= $37 million

Equity as at 2017 = Assets - Liabilities

= 77 - 18

= $59 million

1. Timmy issued $13 million of stock and declared no dividends.

<em>The Net Income ( loss) will be the figure that gives the Statement of Equity a figure of $59 million.</em>

Net Income = Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2017 - Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2016  - Issuance of stock

= 59 - 37 - 13

= $9 million

Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2016  ................ 37

Add: Issuance of stock ......................................................... 13

Net income  ......................................................................9

Less: Dividends declared......................................................0

Net loss.......................................................................................0

Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2017...................59

2. Timmy issued no stock but declared dividends of $17 million.

Net Income (loss) = Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2017 - Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2016  + Dividends Declared

= 59 - 37 + 17

= $39 million

Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2016  ................ 37

Add: Issuance of stock ......................................................... 0

Net income  ......................................................................39

Less: Dividends declared......................................................(17)

Net loss.......................................................................................0

Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2017...................59

3. Timmy issued $20 million of stock and declared dividends of $27 million.

Net Income (loss) = Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2017 - Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2016  + Dividends Declared -  Issuance of stock

= 59 - 37 + 27 - 20

= $29 million

Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2016  ................ 37

Add: Issuance of stock ......................................................... 20

Net income  ......................................................................29

Less: Dividends declared......................................................(27)

Net loss.......................................................................................0

vagabundo [1.1K]
The question is incomplete and should state "Recent rains increase the demand for kayaks, as paddlers want to take advantage of the exciting river conditions on the Oconee river. New plastic technology makes kayaks less expensive to make, as a result, one should expect the equilibrium price of kayaks to purchased to fall and the equilibrium quantity of the kayaks to raise." The questions is also a true or false question. The answer will be false. It is false because both the equilibrium price will raise and so will the quantity. The increase in demand will will create a new curve in the demand which will raise the prices and the companies will make more kayaks.
