Answer:
When something is vague, it is not being specific but when something is ambiguous, it has multiple meanings and so can be open to interpretation.

Answer:
Maple Leaf, Inc.
Inventory Turnover:
b. Greater than 2 but less than 3
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
1) Average inventories:
Raw materials $2,500,000
Work-in-process $1,000,000
Finished goods $800,000
Total average inventory $4,300,000
Cost of goods sold = $12,000,000
Inventory Turnover = Cost of goods sold/Average Inventory
= $12,000,000/$4,300,000
= 2.79 times
2) Inventory turnover is a financial ratio that shows the number of times in a year that inventory has been sold by Maple Leaf, Inc. When it divides the number of days, say 360 days in a year, the ratio that comes out shows the number of days it takes Maple to sell its inventories.

Answer:
Option c) how a consumer might trade off different levels of consumption of each of two goods, while staying at the same utility level.
Explanation:
This is the very definition of an indifference curve. The points in an indifference curve are the combinations of the quantities (level of consumption) of two different goods which will produce the very same utility to the consumer. The consumer will perceive any of those combinations as having the same utility for him.
For example, a usual graph of various indifference curves will look like the graph attached.
In this graph the combination of 2 pairs of shoes and 15 pants will be perceived as having the same utility as the combination of 5 pairs of shoes and 4 pants. Both are combinations in the same indifference curve, the green one, and the utility of any combination lying in that green curve will be rated the same: u = 1.
