Answer:
Diminishing returns
Explanation:
A firm producing widgets (term for a generic good) has two factors of production.
The factory and labour. The capacity of the factory is fixed, and the marginal cost
(MC) of labour is the same (i.e. each new worker will cost the same).
There are two stages to how MC is affected.
1. Increasing returns (MC goes down)
As output begins to increase, the large manufacturing processes/equipment still not fully utilised means and the additional labour can be productive as they can always use the equipment to its full potential due to which the MC is relatively low.
2. Constant returns (MC goes sideward)
At this point, labour is producing its optimal output per unit. The marginal cost is therefore at its lowest.
3. Diminishing returns (MC goes up)
The more labour that is employed, the less marginal output it is able to produce. This could be a result of too many people to efficiently operate/ rotate use of machinery. The cost increases more and more to generate an extra unit of output, because of labour exhibiting diminishing returns in the short run.
In this question, the 10th worker has added 22 units which is 3 units less than the number of units added by the 9th worker, thus the company is producing less marginal output for each worker. so based on the above discussion it can be concluded that the company has Diminishing returns.
Answer:
$88.88 or $89 (Approx)
Explanation:
Each point is equal to the 1 percent so, 2 points is equal to the 2%.
Amount of points paid = Borrowed amount × Points percentage
= $400,000 × 2%
= $8,000
Total number of months = Year × Months in a year
= 30 × 12
= 360
Number of months in the deduction year = September to December
= 4
Amount of deduction:
= (Amount of points paid ÷ Total number of months) × Number of months in the deduction year
= ($8,000 ÷ 360) × 4
= $32,000 ÷ 360
= $88.88 or $89 (Approx)
Correct answer is:
“Search Network only – All features”

Search Network campaigns are usually focused on getting people to take action such as clicking your ad or calling your business.
Answer:
First year : Le 2100
Second year : Le 2800
Third year : Le 2800
Explanation:
Given the following :
Cost of equipment = 30,000
Useful years = 10
Salvage or scrap value = 2,000
depreciation account for the first 3 years in the life of the asset using the Straight line method :
Straight line Depreciation :
(Cost - salvage value) / useful years
First year: (April - December 1990)
April - December 1990 = 9 months
(30,000 - 2000) / 10 × 9/12
28000 / 10 × 0.75 = Le 2100
Second year:
(30,000 - 2000) / 10 × 12/12
28000/ 10 = Le 2800
Third year:
(30,000 - 2000) / 10 × 12/12
28000/ 10 = Le 2800
Answer:
a. $196
b. $88
c. $88
d. $88(x)
e. $20
f. $88
Explanation:
Given:
Rent = $20
Cost per Tux = $88
x = Number of tux
- Since $20 is rent regardless , how many tuxes we rent
Cost function C(x) = 88(x) + 20
A. Cost of renting two tuxes
C(2) = $88(2) + $20
= $176 + $20
= $196
B. All tuxes has same cost, so cost of second tux = $88
C. All tuxes has same cost, so cost of tenth tux = $88
D. Here variable cost means value of tuxes , so variable cost = $88(x)
E. Here rent is described as fixed cost = $20
F. Marginal cost = change in cost / change in quantity
= ${(2*88) -(1*88)} / 2-1
= $88
