Inventory at January 1, 2021, was $960,000 (40,000 units at $24 each). During 2021, 120,000 units were purchased, all at the same price of $29 per unit. 122,000 units were sold during 2021. Assuming an income tax rate of 25%, what is LIFO liquidation profit or loss that the company would report in a disclosure note accompanying its financial statements

David consumes two things: gasoline (g) and bread (b). david's utility function is u(g, b) = 10g^0.25 b^0.75. use the lagrange technique to solve for david's optimal choices of gasoline and bread as a function of the price of gasoline, p_g, the price of bread, p_b, and his income m. with recent decrease in the price of gasoline (maybe due to external shock such as shale gas production) does david increase his consumption of gasoline? for david, how does partial differential g/partial differential p_g depend on his income m? that is, how does david's change in gasoline consumption due to an increase in the price of gasoline depend on his income level? to answer these questions, find the cross-partial derivative, |partial differential^2 g/partial differential m partial differential p_g.
