The statement 'Goods-producing firms focus on the flow of people, information, and services.' is false for goods-producing firms. These firms mainly focus on the production of physical goods rather than the interpersonal or informatic flow.

Given the statements about goods, the statement 'Goods-producing firms focus on the flow of people, information, and services.' is FALSE. Goods-producing firms primarily focus on the production of physical items, and while they do need to manage people, information, and the services they use, their primary focus is not the flow of people, information, and services. This statement would be more accurate when describing service sector firms. Goods-producing firms include businesses that manufacture products, such as automobiles, furniture, or ice cream. These entities indeed use physical inventory, necessitate employees with technical and production skills. They typically need to be near raw materials, suppliers, and laborers since these all constitute essential inputs in their production process.

Answer:

3. Most top managers at family firms tend to stay in their positions much longer than those at nonfamily firms.

Explanation:

A key success factors in family firms is understanding the culture. This is usually the foundation of the business.

So when family members occupy a position, they tend to stay on much longer because they have intimate knowledge of the business and the goals and objectives are personal to them.

Also loyalty tends to play a part, family members have close relationships which are long-term.

The correct statement about family businesses is that family members may work in the business but might not be part of its council. Family businesses significantly contribute to job creation and come in various sizes. Unique challenges they face include succession planning and balancing family dynamics within a business environment.

The correct statement concerning family businesses is that family members often work in the business but may not sit on the council. This reflects the common structure of family-owned businesses where multiple generations collaborate, but not all family employees are involved in the governance or strategic decision-making processes of the business. Family businesses are a substantial part of the U.S. economy; while they come in various sizes, many operate on a small scale with fewer than 100 employees.

These businesses face unique challenges, such as planning for succession and navigating the complexities of family dynamics in a professional context. It is essential to note that family businesses can contribute significantly to job creation, representing 99.7 percent of all employer firms and generating a majority of net new jobs annually. However, it is a misconception to assume that family businesses employ about 20 percent of America's workforce, as the workforce distribution is much more varied.

Moreover, while many family firms may indeed have leadership that remains for extended periods, it is not universally accurate to state that most top managers at family firms stay longer than those at nonfamily firms. As for the planning of succession, family businesses often use a more personalized approach rather than a one-size-fits-all 'critical-point plan.'

The best answer here is; the market for oil is relatively competitive.

Explanation:

Prices for oil are determined by market supply which is affected by various elements.

Over the past 30 years, the price of oil has been relatively unstable, fluctuating between $11.00 and well over $100 per barrel Which of the following potentially contributes to oil-price instability is the market for oil is relatively competitive.

The instability of oil prices over the past 30 years can be attributed to several factors. One such factor is the influence of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC). According to economist John C. B. Cooper's research on price elasticities, OPEC's strategy of supply control is able to exert significant upward pressure on oil prices due to the inelastic demand for oil. This inelasticity implies that consumers' demand for oil does not change proportionately with changes in price, especially in the short run. As a result, OPEC has been successful in manipulating the market to increase profits.

Another factor contributing to oil price volatility is the nature of supply and demand dynamics. When prices are high, suppliers are motivated to enter the market or increase production. Conversely, when prices fall, as they did around 2015, suppliers exit the market, as seen with the decline of active drilling rigs in the U.S. This supply-side response to price changes can lead to rapid shifts in oil availability and consequently in prices. Additionally, global events and technological advancements rapidly alter the landscape of oil production and consumption, further contributing to price instability.

Hence, The market for oil is relatively competitive.

Discount on bonds payable A/c $5,220

     To Bonds payable A/c $261,000

(Being the issuance of the bond is recorded)

We assume the par value is $100 but the bond is issued less than the par value i.e $98 so the difference would be debited to the discounts on bond payable

The journal entry to record the sale of the bonds would be: debit cash, debit discount on bonds payable, and credit bonds payable.

The journal entry to record the sale of the bonds would be as follows:

When Kingbird, Inc. issues bonds at a discount, the cash received is less than the face value of the bonds. The difference is recorded as a discount on bonds payable. In this case, the bonds were sold at 98% of their face value, which resulted in a discount.

Explanation:

An oligopoly is when there are few large firms operating in an industry.

A competitive industry is when there are many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services.

A Monopoly is when there is only one firm operating in an industry.

An oligopoly firm can choose to cooperate with other firms in the industry or not cooperate.

If firms do not cooperate they produce more goods than if they cooperated. The quantity produced can never be as much as that of a competitive firm because the number of producers in an oligopoly is less than that in a competitive firm.

The output would be more than the quantity produced by a monopoly because the number of producers in an oligopoly is more than that in a monopoly.

b. implicit costs

Explanation:

Implicit costs refer to opportunity costs. Opportunity cost refers to the monetary value of the options foregone when an individual opts for another option instead.

In the given case, Susan foregone $25000 per year which she was earlier making, in exchange for starting a new catering business. This depicts loss of opportunities foregone in the form of $25,000 income which she could've continued earning had she not decided to shift to catering business.

Thus, $25,000 denotes an implicit or indirect cost incurred for starting the catering business.

The $25,000 that Susan gave up from her previous job to start a catering business is considered an implicit cost when calculating her catering firm's economic profit.

The $25,000 income that Susan gave up to start a catering business would be counted as part of the catering firm's implicit costs. Implicit costs are those costs that represent the opportunity costs of using resources owned by the firm for its current purpose rather than the next best alternative. In this case, the next best alternative for Susan was her job as a telemarketer, making $25,000. Therefore, when calculating the economic profit of her catering business, this foregone salary must be considered as an implicit cost. This means the correct answer to the question is b. implicit costs.

To answer this question you need the comparative costs of living in each of the trhee cities.

In a similar question, you can find the cost of iiving indexes for Atlanta, Boston, and San Francisco. Here is the table:

                                          Cost of living index

City                                (100 = U.S. City average)

Atlanta, GA                                 98

Boston, MA                               160

San Francisco, CA                   245

Thus, to determine which offer Juan should accept to maximize the purchasing power of his income, divide each income by the cost of living index.

Atlanta, GA:

Boston, MA

San Francisco, CA

Rank the adjusted earnings in decreasing order:

Hence, in spite of the nominal earnings in Atlanta are the lowest, the higher cost of living indexes of the other cities, make that the offer from Atlanta the best one.

Juan should accept the job offer in San Francisco, CA to maximize his purchasing power.

If Juan wants to maximize the purchasing power of his income, he should consider the cost of living in each city. One way to measure the cost of living is by using the concept of purchasing power parity (PPP). PPP takes into account the relative prices of goods and services in different locations and allows for a more accurate comparison of income across regions.

To calculate the purchasing power of Juan's income in each city, we can divide the salary by the cost of living index for that city. The cost of living index represents the relative cost of goods and services in a specific location compared to the national average, which is set at 100.

Let's assume the cost of living indexes for Atlanta, Boston, and San Francisco are 90, 120, and 150 respectively. To calculate the purchasing power of Juan's income in each city:

Therefore, if Juan wants to maximize his purchasing power, he should accept the job offer in San Francisco, CA as it offers the highest purchasing power of his income.

B) Good economists must possess a rare combination of gifts.

Explanation:

Economics is a social science that focuses on studying scarcity. Since all resources are scarce, economics tries to determine how to allocate resources more efficiently in order to produce the most possible benefits. We are all economists whether we like it or not. When we spend our money (scarce resource) we try to get the largest benefit out of it, the same applies to our time. We decide to study for a test and get a good grade, or simply take a very long nap.

The problem with economics and all social science, is that they are not exact. There is no possible way a scientific research can be done that includes all the economy, there are simply too many billions of transactions and different combinations that it is impossible to do it. Some microeconomics studies can be carried out but only considering a single company or industry and few factors.

Economists must base their research upon past events and develop models that can predict future events. Sadly but true, even meteorologists have a higher percentage of correct predictions than economists.

The few good economists must be very good at math, history, politics, philosophy, psychology, developing abstract ideas and make them concrete ideas, and last but not least must be able to explain all of this to others and convince them.

The problem with applying economic models to the real world are the changing expectations of the general public (psychology and philosophy). One of my teachers had a great saying, "the mouth is the most sensitive organ in your body, but your pocket is by far the most sensitive part".
