Suppose that a there are two goods, x and y. the price of good x is $10 and the price of good y is $4. the seller of good x offers a deal where if a consumer buys 1 unit of good x they pay full price, but the second unit of good x is only $8. calculate the slope of the budget constraint between 1 unit of good x and 2 units of good x. (remember to include a negative sign. round to the nearest two decimal places if necessary.)

On january 1, 2018, wetick optometrists leased diagnostic equipment from southern corp. which had purchased the equipment at a cost of $2,256,342. the lease agreement specifies six annual payments of $490,000 beginning january 1, 2018, the beginning of the lease, and at each december 31 thereafter through 2022. the six-year lease term ending december 31, 2023 (a year after the final payment), is equal to the estimated useful life of the equipment. the contract specifies that lease payments for each year will increase on the basis of the increase in the consumer price index for the year just ended. thus, the first payment will be $490,000, and the second and subsequent payments might be different. the cpi at the beginning of the lease is 120. southern routinely acquires diagnostic equipment for lease to other firms. the interest rate in these financing arrangements is 12%. (fv of $1, pv of $1, fva of $1, pva of $1, fvad of $1 and pvad of $1) prepare the appropriate journal entries for wetick and southern to record the lease at its beginning.
