Answer:
Alice's consumer surplus = $5
Jeff's consumer surplus = $16
Nicole's producer surplus = $1
Explanation:
Consumer surplus is the difference between the willingness to pay of a consumer and the price of a good.
Consumer surplus = willingness to pay - price of the good
Producer surplus is the difference between the price of a good and the least price the producer is willing to accept
Producer surplus = price of the good - least price the producer is willing to accept
Alice's consumer surplus = $30 - ($35 - $10) = $5
Jeff's consumer surplus = $20 - [$16 - (0.75 x $16)] = $16
Nicole's producer surplus = $501 - $500 = $1
Solution:
Barnes Corporation purchased 75 percent of Nobles’ common stock
During the year, Nobles reports net income of $40,000.
Hence, 75% of net income of Nobbles is attributable to Barnes Corporation.
Barnes reports for income from subsidiary prior to consolidation
= 40,000 x 75%
= $30,000
