Answer:
B The isocost line makes a parallel shift inward
Explanation:
This is because the increase in price is proportional ,less of labor and capital can be bought,and isocost line shifts inward parallely.
If both the price of labor and capital increase proportionally while holding production costs constant, the isocost line makes a parallel shift inward, indicating less of both inputs can be afforded for the same level of expenditures.
When considering the effects of changes in the prices of inputs such as labor and capital on the production process, the representation of these changes can be seen on an isocost line in a graph where labor is on the horizontal axis and capital is on the vertical axis. If the price of labor increases, typically the isocost line becomes flatter; however, if both the price of labor and capital rise in the same proportion and production costs remain constant, the result is choice B: The isocost line makes a parallel shift inward. This reflects that at the new higher prices, the firm can afford less labor and less capital for the same level of expenditures, hence the isocost line moves closer to the origin of the graph.

In the realm of communication, the process that involves turning ideas into words to communicate meaning is called encoding, whereas the medium or tool used to carry or transmit the message is called the channel.
The process of translating ideas into words that will convey meaning is referred to as encoding. The channel is the medium over which a message is transmitted.

For each of the transactions, complete the tabulation, indicating the effect (positive value for increase, negative value for decrease, and leave blank if no effect) of each transaction.
This question is a test of understanding accounting principles and how various transactions impact a business's accounts. The student is required to analyze several transactions for Amazon.com, Inc., determining for each one how it affects the company's assets, liabilities, equity, revenue, and expenses.
To respond to this question will require understanding of accounting and financial transactions and the resulting impacts on business accounts, in this case, Amazon.com, Inc. For example, when Amazon issued stock for $623 cash, this increased cash (an asset) by $623 million and equity by the same amount. Buying equipment costing $6320 while paying $4893 in cash and charging the rest on the account reduced cash by $4893 and increased both equipment (another asset) by $6320 and accounts payable (a liability) by $1427 million ($6320 - $4893). Similarly, you can analyze other transactions: principal and interest payments on debt reduce cash and long-term debt or interest expense; generating sales revenue increases revenue and accounts receivable or cash; incurring expenses (e.g., shipping, marketing) increases expense and accounts payable or decreases cash; borrowing cash increases both cash and long-term debt, etc. Understanding the transactions in this way is central to the accounting process, which creates the financial statements that give stakeholders important information about a business's financial health.
