In perfect competition, firms will be able to earn economic profits in the short run.

<h3>What is perfect competition?</h3>

A perfect competition is characterized by many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services.

In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit.  If in the short run firms are earning economic profit, in the long run firms would enter into the industry. This would drive economic profit to zero.

SHAPE magazine is targeted at young women seeking healthier lifestyles. At a price of $3 per copy, 1.25 million copies are sold.
Lerok [7]

Answer:

A. $ 3,750,000

Explanation:

Given that

At lower price

A copy is $3

Copies sold = 1.25 million

Recall that

Total revenue = Price of good × quantity of goods sold.

That is, the total amount of money a seller obtains by selling goods or/and services to a buyer(s)

Thus

Total revenue at low cost

= 3 × 1.25 million

= 3.75 million

= $3,750,000

Icy Mocha Company estimates its factory overhead costs to be $35,000 and machine hours to be 5,000 for the year. If the actual h
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

$160 overapplied

Explanation:

Icy Mocha company estimates it's factory overhead costs to be $35,000 and machine hours to be 5,000 for a period of one year.

The actual number of hours worked on job 333 and 334 equals a total of 4,980

The actual factory overhead costs are $34,700

The first step is to calculate the predetermined overhead rate

= Overhead costs/machine hours

= $35,000/5,000

= $7

The amount of either over or underapplied factory costs can be calculated as follows

= predetermined overhead rate×actual number of hours worked

= $7×4,980

= $34,860

The amount is then subtracted from the actual overhead costs

= $34,700-$34860

= -$160

= $160 overapplied

Hence the amount of overapplied factory overhead is $160

Ginny and Eric are partners at an architecture firm. They are trying to determine which of them has a comparative advantage in b
blondinia [14]

Answer: (i) $20 per model

(ii) $27 per model

(iii) Ginny has a comparative advantage in building models.

Explanation:

A country or a firm has a comparative advantage in producing a commodity if the opportunity cost of producing that commodity in terms of other commodities is lower than the other country or firm.

Opportunity cost is the benefit that is foregone for an individual by choosing one alternative over other alternatives available to him.

If the opportunity cost is lower for an individual then this will benefit him whereas if the opportunity cost is higher then this will not benefit the individuals.

Therefore,

Ginny's Opportunity cost of producing one model = \frac{400}{20}

                                                                                      = $20 per model

Eric’s opportunity cost of building models = $20 + 35% of $20

                                                                      = $20 + $7

                                                                      = $27 per model

Hence, Ginny has a comparative advantage in building models because Ginny's opportunity cost of building model is lower than Eric's opportunity cost.
