Answer:
The correct option is (b)
Explanation:
Aggregate supply curve is upward sloping as output increase with the increase in price. In the short run, wage rate is fixed. As such, in the short run, firms can hire more workers at fixed wage rate. An increase in price indicates more profits, thereby increasing output.
This is the reason for upward sloping AS curve.
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
How much must Icon allow Emily to diversify this year?
The answer is $250,000
Explanation:
- After attaining the age of 55 years and participating already for ten years in the ESOP. 
- Emily will be allowed to diversify the value equal to 25% of investments. 
- 50% of the investment is allowed to be diversified if it is final year of participation but in the present case it is not the final year before the retirement of the Emily so she will not be allowed 50% diversification and only up to 25% is allowed on which the percentage of investment already diversified in previous years will also be reduced. 
- Since here in the past no amount has been diversified by Emily so she will be allowed 25 % of investment to diversify in the current year which comes to $250,000 ($1,000,000* 25%). Thus the answer is $250,000.
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
After calculating, we get to know that the Product A should be sell now because, it show a difference of $23,800 through which company can earn more in the future. As the company will be better off by $23,800
Explanation:
For calculation, following things need to be considered which is shown below:
1. Product A process costing = Pounds × Per pound price
                                             = 34,000 × $8 
                                             = $272,000
2. Product A costing after selling = Pounds × sale price per pound
                                                    = 34,000 × $14
                                                    = $476,000
3. Difference of costing :
=  Product A costing after selling - Product A process costing
= $476,000 - $272,000
= $204,000
4. Invested amount = $227,800
5. Actual Difference = Invested amount - costing difference
                                   = $227,800 - $204,000
                                   = $23,800
After calculating, we get to know that the Product A should be sell now because, it show a difference of $23,800 through which company can earn more in the future. As the company will be better off by $23,800
