Options:
<em>a. Shift to the left, causing the prices of carrots to rise</em>
<em>b. Shift to the left, causing the prices of carrots to fall</em>
<em>c. Stay the same</em>
<em>d. The supply curve does not shift. Only the demand curve shifts.</em>
<u>Answer:</u>
<u>a. Shift to the left, causing the prices of carrots to rise</u>
<u>Explanation:</u>
Indeed, going by the law of supply and holding all other factors constant, we would expect the supply curve to shift to the left, which implies that there would be an increase in the price of carrots.
What this means is that because there are now fewer carrots in the market as a result of the effects of the bad weather, there would be scarcity and so sellers would increase prices.
Answer:
Elastic demand
Explanation:
The price elasticity of demand is described as the sensitivity of demand to changes in its price. A product is price elastic when a small change in prices causes a significant change in quantity demanded. If a small change in price results in minimal impact in quantity demanded, the product is price inelastic.
Steel mill raised its prices by 7 percent. As a result, the demand declined by 20 percent. The demand decreased by a bigger rate than the change in price. It means a small change in price causes the demand to change significantly. Therefore, the demand curve is price elastic.
Answer:
Overhead application rate
= <u>Budgeted overhead</u>
Budgeted machine hours
= <u>$900,000</u>
30,000 hours
= $30 per machine hour
Overhead cost assigned to the product
= Overhead application rate x Actual machine hours
= $30 x 12,000 hours
= $360,000
Explanation:
In this case, there is need to determine the overhead application rate, which is the ratio of budgeted overhead to budgeted machine hours.
Then, we will obtain the overhead cost assigned to the product by multiplying the overhead application rate by actual machine hours.
