Let's say that gasoline is subject to a $0.50 excise tax in your city. This tax affects both buyers and sellers equally.

Depending on the elasticity of demand and supply, a tax's burden is split between purchasers and sellers. Depending on their alternatives, buyers' and sellers' desire to exit the market is represented by elasticity. The relationship between supply and demand price elasticity and tax incidence is also possible. The tax burden is placed on the purchasers when supply is more elastic than demand. The cost of the tax will be borne by the producers if demand is more elastic than supply.

Ray's Pizzeria is considering the addition of a 5th worker if this increases profit. Pizza sales increased from 300 per day to 3
Anika [276]

Answer:

60 pizzas

40 pizzas

Explanation:

Marginal product measures the change in output as a result of a change in input by one unit

Marginal product = change in output / change in input

Marginal product for the 4th worker

Change in output = 360 - 300 = 60 pizzas

Change in input = 4 - 3 = 1 worker

Marginal product = 60 / 1 = 60

Marginal product for the 5th worker

Change in output = 400 - 360 = 40 pizzas

Change in input = 5 - 4 = 1

Marginal product = 40 / 1 = 40

It can be seen that marginal product decreased from 60 to 40 when the 5th worker was added. This illustrates diminishing marginal returns.

The law of diminishing returns says as more units of a variable input is added to a fixed income of production, output might increase at a point but after some time total output would increase at a decreasing rate and marginal product would be decreasing.

sineoko [7]

The correct answer should be Line of sight.

What then is your Line of sight?

Your line of sight is the noticeable path of travel from your vehicle to your destination area. This line can be obstructed by a curve, a hill, high-forest wooded zones, large truck or other obstruction that prevents drivers from seeing the vehicle ahead. Therefore, if you cannot see around an obstruction, you should slow down and be willing to adjust your position until you can reestablish a clear line of sight to your path of travel and targeting area.
