Answer: a. rise, the supply of bread to decrease, and the demand for potatoes to increase.
Explanation:
According to the Economic law of SUPPLY AND DEMAND, less supply means HIGHER prices simply because the good is becoming scarce not unlike fuel during global oil shortages.
Now, we are told that the drought reduced the supply for wheat which means the SUPPLY of wheat has DECREASED and this will translate to the SUPPLY of Bread DECREASING as well. According to the aforementioned law, prices of Bread will therefore RISE.
Since Bread prices have risen, people will seek alternatives to bread as they may not want to pay the high price. This will lead them to choosing the alternative to bread which in this case are Potatoes which would therefore INCREASE the DEMAND for potatoes.
Answer:
INCREMENTAL cost allocation method
Explanation:
Incremental cost allocation method is the ranking of individual users of the cost object in such a way that the order of users most responsible for the common cost and then uses its ranking to allocate cost among those users. So they'd be ranked from primary user to first incremental user to second incremental user and so on until the cost have been assigned to all users. It requires one user to be seen as the primary user/party and other users to be seen as incremental user/party.
Answer:
$314,000
Explanation:
The computation of total assets is shown below:-
Total equity = $161,000
Revenue = $226,000
Expenses = $173,000
Liabilities at the end of the year = $100,000
Income of the year = $226,000 - $173,000
= $53,000
Total assets of the company at the end of the year = (Total Stock Holders Equity) + Total Liabilities
=(Total equity at the beginning of the year + Income for the year ) + Liabilities at the end of the year
= $161,000 + $53,000 + $100,000
= $314,000

The opportunity cost is the cost of the best alternaive rejected to perform the current project.
We must calculate the opportunity cost for each factor when needed. The most common example, if someone is using a place for a personnal project, the opportuniy cost will be the sum of:
The rent factor, the proceeds it could receive from the space
The labor factor, the salary it could recieve if it is working on a different project.
In this case, Hal only is resining to labor factor, so the opportunity cost for collegue is the lost wages at burger haven
