...1 Introduction: What Is Economics? Chapter Summary Economics is about making choices when options are limited. Options in an economy are limited because the factors of production are limited. We can use economic analysis to understand the consequences of our choices as individuals, organizations, and society as a whole. Here are the main points of the chapter: • Most of modern economics is based on positive analysis, which answers the question “What is?” or “What will be?” Economists contribute to policy debates by conducting positive analyses about the consequences of alternative actions. • Normative analysis answers the question “What ought to be?” • The choices made by individuals, firms, and governments answer three questions: What products do we produce? How do we produce the products? Who consumes the products? • To think like economists, we (a) use assumptions to simplify, (b) use the notion of ceteris paribus to focus on the relationship between two variables, (c) think in marginal terms, and (d) assume that rational people respond to incentives. • We use macroeconomics to understand why economies grow, to understand economic fluctuations, and to make informed business decisions. • We use microeconomics to understand how markets work, to make personal and managerial decisions, and to evaluate the merits of public policies. Learning Objectives 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. List the three key economic questions. Discuss the insights from economics for a real-world problem such as...

A corporation ling its rst return must annualize its income if the tax period is less than 12 months. A taxable year may be as short as one day and may exceed 366 days. Under no circumstances may a corporation change its scal year without IRS permission. A taxpayer engaged in two or more separate and distinct businesses may use different accounting methods for both businesses. A grocery store may use the cash basis of reporting sales. In general, a CPA on the cash basis method will never have a bad debt deduction. A cash basis taxpayer may deduct prepaid business expenses currently. Both cash and accrual basis taxpayers will be taxed on a dividend when it is actually received. Computing cost of goods soldand being on the accrual basis are independent of each other. If, in the IRSs opinion, the taxpayers books do not clearly reect income, the IRS may revise them so that they do. Taxpayers must generally obtain the permission of the IRS to change accounting methods. A correction of an error in a tax return is usually considered a change in accounting method. The IRS can require a change in accounting methods if the method used by a taxpayer does not clearly reect income. IRS permission is not required for a change from FIFO to LIFO. The installment method cannot be used unless the total selling price...
